The re-treatment consists of steam-drying at temperatures of 200 to 260  DEG C and lasts for 3 to 6 hours. The steam should be applied either directly or in the form of an inert carrier gas and should be guided continuously over the material to be dried in a quantity of 0.001 to 10 mol. water per hour and kilogram of the crystalline layer lattice compound obtained in stage (i). The inventive compounds are particularly suitable for stabilising halogen-containing plastics against thermal or photochemical decomposition and can therefore be used as stabilisers for the same.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif d'ancrage destiné à la fixation d'un arbre (1) par chacune de ses extrémités, de préférence, dans une paire d'oreilles de fixation (2) ou équivalent dotées de trous destinés à cet arbre. Le dispositif est caractérisé en ce que chaque extrémité de l'arbre est pourvue d'un biseau de guidage (1a) et d'au moins un chanfrein plat (3). Les chanfreins (3) forment un angle avec l'axe longitudinal de l'arbre et sont reliés à la surface extérieure de l'arbre, laissant une section arbre cylindrique entre les chanfreins plats. Au niveau de chaque chanfrein (3), le dispositif comprend un corps (4) dont la forme correspond à la partie chanfrein plane de chaque extrémité de l'arbre et qui a une section adjacente au biseau de guidage de chaque extrémité d'arbre et s'étendant dans le sens axial, cette section étant dotée d'une extrémité (4a) en forme de segment de cercle. Cette dernière (4a) a le long de la courbe un flasque (4b) dirigé radialement vers l'extérieur au-delà de la périphérie de l'arbre. Les corps sont conçus pour agir comme des cales dont la pointe est orientée vers la section centrale cylindrique. A l'aide d'éléments vis (5, 6), on peut imprimer à chaque corps (4) un mouvement axial vers la section cylindrique, ce qui permet de réaliser l'ancrage de l'arbre (1) dans chaque trou.

Abstract: A series of kits for an indirect and direct inguinal hernia
operations for both male patient and a female patients. The kit
for the male patient comprises two plugs (10,20) and one mesh piece (40).
The plugs and mesh are made from a polymer mesh and are pretreated so
that they lay flat within the body after a hernia operation. These
two plugs and mesh piece are sterilized and placed within a kit so
that during an operation for hernia repair, a doctor has the
necessary plugs precut and sterilized so that he can place these
plugs within a patient's body. In this case, the plugs and mesh
pieces have holes (22) and slits (24) formed to receive a spermatic cord.
Since a female patient does not have a spermatic cord, the plug and
mesh piece in this kit do not have holes or slits for a spermatic
cord. There is also a third kit for large primary and recurrent
groin hernias that cause weakening of the entire floor canal. This
kit contains a flat rigid hernial plug and a preshaped mesh piece.
The two pieces are attached in a two-mesh pair.

Abstract: A midsole assembly for an athletic shoe
comprises a midsole formed of soft elastic material and a
corrugated sheet disposed in the heel portion of a midsole.
The inner surface side of the corrugated sheet has a double
structure. Since the compressive hardness of the midsole is
higher on the inner surface side including a double structure,
transverse deformation of a shoe on landing can be prevented
and over-pronation can be restrained on this inner surface
side and the loss of athletic power can be decreased. On the
other hand, flexibility of the midsole is maintained on the
outer surface side without a double structure and thus,
cushioning properties can be secured on this outer surface
side.

Abstract: The specification describes thin film transistor integrated circuits wherein
the TFT devices are field effect transistors with inverted structures. The
interconnect levels are produced prior to the formation of the transistors. This
structure leads to added flexibility in processing. The inverted structure is a result
of removing the constraints in traditional semiconductor field effect device
manufacture that are imposed by the necessity of starting the device fabrication
with the single crystal semiconductor active material. In the inverted structure the
active material, preferably an organic semiconductor, is formed last in the
fabrication sequence.

Abstract: An acceleration sensor element comprises a weight; a
support having a hollow part, which is disposed around the
weight as a center; and a flexible plate having
piezoelectric elements in which a piezoelectric body is
sandwiched by at least one set of electrodes, which is
disposed horizontally across the support to suspend the
weight at the hollow part of the support, wherein the
acceleration applied from the exterior is converted to the
deflection of the flexible plate based on the movement of
the weight corresponding to the acceleration, and the
direction and the rate of the acceleration are three-dimensionally
determined from the electric charges generated
from the piezoelectric body corresponding to the deflection
of the flexible plate. The piezoelectric elements are
disposed to be continuously constructed over the flexible
parts of the flexible plate from the upper part of the
weight and/or the support at the plane of projection seen
from the upper part of the flexible plate. An acceleration-sensor-element
manufacturing method comprises a first step
of laminating and compression bonding a green sheet of the
configuration in cross section of a weight, a support, and a
flexible plate to form a laminated layer, a second step of
integrally sintering the laminated layer to form a sintered 
body, and a third step of forming the piezoelectric elements
