Abstract: In a cooling apparatus, air within a room is first
introduced into a radiator-type adsorber 1, where
moisture contained in the air is adsorbed by A-type silica
gel. The resulting low-humidity air is subsequently
introduced into a desorption cooler 5, where moisture is
desorbed from B-type silica gel, thereby humidifying and
cooling the air. The resulting low-temperature air is
then used for cooling. When a cooling capacity of the
cooling apparatus is lowered, air from a heat source is
introduced into the radiator-type adsorber 1, where the
moisture is desorbed from the A-type silica gel, thereby
recovering the adsorbability thereof. The high-humidity
air resulting from the desorption of the moisture is
subsequently introduced into the desorption cooler 5,
where the moisture contained in the air is adsorbed by the
B-type silica gel, thereby recovering the desorption
cooling capacity thereof.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une baguette d'archet en bois, de conception classique, qui présente un ou plusieurs évidements ou canaux, ménagés sur sa longueur. Une/des barre(s) renforcée(s), de même courbure et de même section que l'évidement/canal, constituée(s) de matériau composite résistant, tel que des fibres de carbone prises dans une matrice de résine, est/sont insérée(s) et fixée(s) dans le/les canal/canaux. La/les barre(s) de renfort présente(nt) de manière inhérente des caractéristiques de rigidité plus importantes que le bois d'origine, qui viennent s'ajouter à la rigidité totale de la baguette complète. La/les barre(s) ne représentant qu'une faible proportion du rapport masse/volume total de la baguette d'archet, l'aspect « en bois » est conservé et même si le matériau composite présente une densité légèrement supérieure à celle du bois de base, tout gain de poids n'est qu'infime. L'insertion des barres ne modifie pas nécessairement les dimensions finales de la baguette finie, mais un redimensionnement judicieux de la baguette permettrait d'éliminer tout gain de poids, sans influence majeure sur la rigidité.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing intelligent-network traffic provided with terminating traffic conditions. According to the method, some terminating traffic condition is set for the destination connection (10), in which case when a call comes to the connection (10) in question, the switching centre (SSP) makes an intelligent-network query of the intelligent-network control (11) and, as a result of the intelligent-network query, routes the call to at least one connection (4, 7) differing from the destination connection. According to the invention, after the connection (4) differing from the destination connection (10), the call is routed back to the destination connection (10), with at least one parameter setting to be transmitted in signalling being altered in this routing, due to an intelligent-network query by the destination connection (10) made as a consequence of the control that carried out the alteration to the parameter setting, in response to the said parameter setting alteration, to direct the switching centre (SSP) using the intelligent-network (11) to connect the call to the destination connection.

Abstract: A device couples two storage and/or transport units with a security device. By alternately using a single actuating device, the security device and a pivoting device react in such a way that connecting branches of the units which are coupled are placed in a lock position by the security device and are firmly locked with respect to each other such that it is not possible to separate them. Closing valves in the connecting branches insure that the connecting branches are sealed from each other. By subsequently rotating the drive shaft, it is possible to open the closing valves using the pivoting device in order to enable a transfer process to occur. By rotating the drive shaft back, the closing valves are re-closed. Also by rotating the drive shaft, the connecting branches can be separated from each other.

Abstract: In an animated email communications device (1) in
accordance with the present invention, animation data
transmitted over a network from an origin is received by
a receiving section (11) and stored in an incoming
animation storage section (12), and animation data
produced in advance is stored in an added animation
storage section (13). As the user starts editing by an
operation of an input section (15), an animation display
appears on a display section (14) based on the animation
data stored in the incoming animation storage section
(12). In this operation, if the operator gives an
insertion or superimpose instruction through the input
section (15), the editing section (16) inserts or
superimposes the animation stored in the added animation
storage section (13) with no delay. At the end of the
editing, the edited animation data is stored in a reply
animation storage section (17) and transmitted to a
destination from a transmitting section (18) when the
operator gives an instruction through the input section
(15). Thus, an image, such as animation, can be edited
by, for example, insertion and superimposition, as easily
and quickly as editing an email reply.
