Abstract: L'invention concerne l'élimination d'échos par un modem utilisant une liaison de communciation telle qu'une liaison téléphonique à deux fils. Les systèmes de l'art antérieur se basent sur le fait que l'écho distant le plus important se produit à l'extrémité éloignée, ce qui implique, par conséquent, que le modem éloigné soit actif de manière à déterminer un intervalle de temps pour les échos et une détermination inédacuate de l'intervalle de temps pour les échos intermédiaires. La présente invention identifie un écho distant revenant au modem et qui correspond à des données transmises antérieurement, et elle comprend un émetteur (20), un récepteur (46), un élément de mémorisation et comparaison (36) qui compare les mots numériques reçus à des donnés de transmission mémorisées, et un élément de temporisation (32) qui retarde l'entrée des données de transmission dans un dispositif d'élimination (54) placé à l'extrémité éloignée en fonction de la sortie de l'élément de mémorisation et de comparaison (36).

Abstract: On enrobe d'abord des médicaments sous forme solide, tels que des granules, des perles ou des tablettes, avec une dispersion d'un éther de cellulose, qui est soluble dans l'eau froide mais insoluble dans l'eau chaude, et on les soumet ensuite à un traitement à la cire, en les chauffant pour former une couche de masquage de cire. A la différence du film de revêtement en éther de cellulose formé en utilisant une solution aqueuse ou organique de l'éther de cellulose, le film de revêtement formé en utilisant la dispersion aqueuse d'éther de cellulose présente une structure poreuse, de sorte que la quantité de cire déposée pendant le traitement à la cire est beaucoup plus grande que celle obtenue par les procédés traditionnels, ce qui permet d'obtenir un effet plus prononcé de masquage de l'amertume de l'ingrédient contenu dans le médicament.

Abstract: Disposable garments such as disposable diapers are disclosed that possess improved elastic characteristics. At least one garment outer sheet is composed of a drawable fabric, such as melt blown polymeric fibers or melt spun filaments. An elastic element (41) is affixed in the relaxed condition to a web (25) of outer sheet fabric. The elastic web is then stretched, and simultaneously the web in the area of elastic element attachment is drawn to impart a molecular orientation to the web fibers. As a result, the web fibers are permanently elongated. Upon relaxation of the stretched elastic element, shirrs (57) or gathers (59) are formed in the web fibers that permit subsequent stretching of the elastic element when the garment is worn. One of the outside sheet webs need not be drawable or drawn if it is preformed with corrugations or pleats in the region of elastic element attachment. The present invention also includes apparatus for manufacturing the garment. The apparatus includes novel rolls (51) for pre-corrugating one garment sheet and for simultaneously stretching the elastic element and drawing the web in the region of elastic element attachment. Alternately, the entire web may be drawn, rather than just in the region of elastic element attachment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for cracking heavy hydrocarbons into lighter hydrocarbons, and to a device for carrying out this process. 
<??>This process consists in using a bed of particles, advantageously catalytic particles, in a reaction chamber, introducing a gas for the fluidisation of the bed in accordance with a predetermined flow rate so as to create a spurting fluidised bed and introducing a plasma jet, preferably containing argon, into the chamber, the jet being directed towards a defined zone of the bed so as to create a reaction space having at least two reaction zones at different temperatures, the zone at the higher temperature being that into which the plasma jet is directed, introducing the heavy hydrocarbons into the reaction zone at lower temperature and preferably introducing into the zone at higher temperature one or more light alkanes so as to bring about the cracking of the heavy hydrocarbons in the fluidised bed, the latter effecting a quenching of the reaction mixture and catalysing the cracking. The process furthermore consists in discharging the products obtained downstream from the zone at lower temperature.

Abstract: A distributed queue multiple access technique is disclosed for a system comprising two counterflowing transmission busses (A, B), plural stations (i, j) connected between them, and a headend station generating slots on the first one (A) of the busses; each station transmitting access requests on the second one (B) of the busses and determining its right to transmit data in slots on the first bus on the basis of access requests it has seen. Each station maintains a FIFO queue (41) for sequential storage of numbers representing external (EXT-REQ) and local (LOC-REQ) access requests. To achieve correct timing between access requests entering the queue from the second bus and respective free slots passing a station on the first bus, a station-individual delay is introduced by maintaining in a FIFO delay storage (71) a specific number of entries. This results in an equally fair treatment for all stations, and guarantees the availability of consecutive free slots for any station which requested them.
