Abstract: The invention relates to a process for manufacturing
pliable decorative paper sheets comprising a first step in which
a paper substrate is impregnated with urea-acrylic resins, a
second step in which said paper substrate is impegnated with a
melamine-formaldehyde resin, and a third step in which said
substrate is hot pressed. 
     As an alternative, the process according to the
invention provides for the use of a paper substrate pre-impegnated
with urea-acrylic resins during the manufacturing of
said paper substrate. The so obtained decorative paper is used
for covering flat or curved surfaces.

Abstract: A composite switch circuit (30) for alternately and electrically
connecting a first circuit (Tx) to a third circuit (ANT) or a second
circuit (Rx) to said third circuit (ANT). The composite switch circuit
(30) is incorporated with a low pass filter circuit (LPF) in the switch
circuit portion of the composite switch circuit (30) so as to create a
highly symmetrical circuit configuration. The composite switch circuit
(30) is disposed on a plurality of dielectric substrates (22-28) of a
integral multi-layer body (2) to provide a miniaturised composite switch
device. Since the composite switch device including the composite switch
circuit (30) with a symmetrical circuit configuration shows a low
insertion loss and a high performance in a broad frequency range, the
composite switch device is advantageously used to form a portion of a
radio transceiver such as a cellular radiotelephone.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for creating knitted
garments comprising steps of forming an entirely deployed pattern (2)
having a deployed shape which can be obtained by flattening an entire
predetermined three-dimensional design of a garment to be knitted,
dividing the entirely deployed pattern into a plurality of divided areas
to form pattern pieces (2a-2f), creating knitted pieces which conform to
each shape of the pattern pieces, and forming the predetermined design
of garments by joining the knitted pieces to each other based on an
arrangement of the divided areas. 
     According to the present invention, since the entirely deployed
pattern is formed based on the three-dimensional design which fits
to the contours of the wearer, the knitted garment snugly fits and allows
easy movement of the body. Further, since the area enclosed by the complicated outline of the
entirely deployed pattern is devided into pattern pieces having simple
shapes based on which beginners can easily create the knitted pieces, it
enables to simplify a knitting operation.

Abstract: A heat exchange apparatus, typically for use in association with a double
rectification column 2 for the separation of air, has a downflow reboiler 32 with
boiling passages 34. In addition, there is a condenser 20 in a position at a
higher elevation than the reboiler 32. The condenser 20 is fed with liquefied gas
to be reboiled from the sump 38 of a lower pressure column 6 forming part of
the double rectification column 2. A first conduit 44 feeds the liquefied gas
under gravity to the reboiler 32. The feeding of the condenser 20 is effected by
a vapour lift pump comprising a second conduit 40 and an expansion valve 42
disposed therein. Some of the liquefied gas is vaporised by passage through the
expansion valve 42, and this vapour provides the vapour lifting pumping effect.
The vapour is recondensed in the condenser 20.

Abstract: The headlamp has a mechanism which converts the rotary motion of a headlamp reflector (30) to linear motion. The mechanism has two coaxial rotary elements (110,120), one element carrying a rigid rod (115) with two opposite flat faces and the other element carrying a flexible component (136). The flexible component is an elastic ring which encloses the rigid element and has two internal flat surfaces which fix the flat faces of the rigid element. If an excess torque is applied to the rigid element the elastic ring deforms, allowing the rigid element to rotate inside the ring so the excess torque is not transmitted to the reflector.

Abstract: The engine mounting connecting rod is constructed as a rigid elongated body, of which each end is formed into an annular ring. It is linked internally by an elastic mass to a connecting socket, which, in turn, is linked at one end to the engine and at the other end to the structure of the vehicle. The body is made of cast iron and the primary socket (4), viewed along its axis, has the general form of a trapezoid and is linked to the outer ring (2) of the connecting rod by two elastic blocks (6), chevron-shaped. The two blocks are linked to the inclined faces (7) of the primary socket, and to the internal flanks of the outer ring. The secondary socket (9) has smaller dimensions than the primary socket, is cylindrical and is linked to the corresponding outer ring by elastic arms (11).

Abstract: An answering machine (AM) for an analog telecommunication system is disclosed
which ensures a high degree of privacy and confidentiality in cases when more
than one user has access to the answering machine. According to the invention,
the answering machine comprises at least two distinct mail boxes (MB1, MB2,...,

called party identification signal after a wake-up signal has been received by the
answer machine. This signal denotes a specific party that has access to the answering
machine. Comparing means (COMP) compare the detected called party identification
signal with at least two predefined signals, each of the two predefined
signals being assigned to one of the at least two mail boxes. Switching means

Abstract: D'une façon pratique, il est souhaitable d'enrichir des granules d'aliments pour animaux au moyen de divers additifs en doses relativement petites, par exemple seulement 100 g par tonne, ces additifs étant vaporisés à l'état dissous ou en suspension, sur un flux plat de granules, à l'état froid. Il est bien connu que l'on peut améliorer ce processus en utilisant un flux de granules tombant le long d'une glissière inclinée. Cependant, il est difficile alors d'obtenir une quelconque précision d'un dosage particulièrement adéquat des matières vaporisées, dont certaines d'entre elles sont relativement chères. En outre, les installations associées à ce processus sont difficiles à monter dans des bâtiments classiques. Selon l'invention, on produit un flux plat en utilisant une roue d'éjection, ce qui permet d'utiliser une glissière relativement petite et de limiter la hauteur de la construction; outre le fait que cet agencement permet en même temps d'améliorer la précision du dosage, on utilise une mesure d'écoulement massique en continu pour réguler le dosage ou la capacité d'éjection et obtenir une excellente précision de dosage du liquide.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mounting device for an exhaust gas
re-circulation valve which prevents the overheating, due to high
temperature exhaust gas, of a stepping motor powering the opening and
closing of the valve and the valve main body of an exhaust gas re-circulation
valve which opens and closes the exhaust gas re-circulation
passage of an engine. The valve body 201 of the exhaust gas re-circulation
valve is buried in a component 100 of the engine having a
lower temperature than the exhaust gas. In such a way, the high
temperature of the exhaust gas may be absorbed, dispersed and radiated
and as a result there is no need to provide a separate cooling structure
such as a coolant chamber and the overheating of the stepping motor 300
due to high temperature exhaust gas may be prevented.
