Abstract: This invention provides a biodegradable and
bioabsorbable implant material having a high mechanical
strength wherein its shape after deformation within
ordinary temperature range can be fixed and maintained so
that its shape can be easily adjusted at the site of
operation, and it has substantially no anisotropy in view
of strength so that it does not cause whitening, breakage
and sharp decrease in strength when its bending
deformation is repeated in any direction and it has
toughness. Particularly, it provides an implant material
which comprises a biodegradable and bioabsorbable
crystalline polymer that has a crystallinity of 5% or
more, can effect deformation such as bending or twisting
within ordinary temperature range and has a shape-keeping
ability to fix and maintain the shape after deformation as
such, wherein molecular chains, domains of molecular chain
assembly or crystals of the polymer are oriented along a
large number of reference axes having different axial
directions, or clusters having these reference axes having
different orientation are assembled in a large number.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lighting system (10) in which the source of light (18) is remotely
located from a hollow light guide (12). The source of light (18) need not be suspended
along with the hollow light guide (12). Instead, the source of light (18) emits light into an
optical fiber (16) which can then be focused into the hollow light guide (12) by a light
directing element (14). Advantageously, the arrangement according to the present
results in a lighter weight overhead installation, allows the hollow light guide (12) to
remain cool over its entire length, eliminates any electrical hazard overhead,
eliminates RFI and EMI caused by overhead electrical wiring, and provides for
easier maintenance from the floor level. The lighting system (10) provides shock
vibration resistance for the light source (18).

Abstract: A brewing system suitable for infusing an infusible substance such as
tea. The system resembles a tea pot arrangement with a container (1) for
containing water that has a spout (6) and handle (9) and an infusing
device (3) for containing an infusible substance, The container defines
a reservoir for the water and has a neck (15) which supports the
infusing device. The infusing device is a pair of cups (18,24) that are
detachably mountable to a central platform to form a pair of infusing
chambers. The cups and the platform have air holes. The arrangement of
the container and the infusing device is such that in use the infusible
substance is loaded into one of the infusing chambers and the
orientation of the infusing device is moveable between an infusing
orientation whereby the infusing chamber that is loaded with the
infusible substance is immersed in the water thus allowing it to infuse
into the water and a non-infusing orientation whereby the infusing chamber
that does not contain the infusible substance is immersed in the water
while the infusing chamber that contains the infusible substance is
suspended above the water and thus can no longer infuse into the water.

Abstract: Gas from each source (S) is separately passed down an extraction line (L) to an organ directing flow (V) and then either via an evacuation line (LE) to an outlet or storage vessel (E) or to an assembly point R. A tertiary line (LT) connects the assembly point to another outlet or storage vessel. Each analysis line (LA) connects the tertiary line to an analyzer. The device includes at least two sources of gas (S1,S2), at least two extraction lines (L1,L2) each connected upstream to one of the sources of gas and downstream to a respective organ (V1,V2) directing flow, at least two evacuation lines (LE1,LE2) connected upstream to the organ directing flow and downstream to an outlet or storage vessel (E1,E2), and at least two secondary lines (LS1,LS2) connected upstream to the organs directing flow and downstream to an assembly point (R). Each organ directing flow sends a sample of the initial gas to its respective evacuation line via the respective secondary line. A tertiary line (LT) is connected upstream to the assembly point and downstream to an outlet or storage vessel (E). At least one analysis line (LA1) is connected upstream to the tertiary line and downstream to at least one analyzer. The tertiary line includes a pump (P) between the assembly point and the connection to the analysis line(s), and a non-return valve and a discharge downstream of the connection to the analysis line(s). At least one of the analysis lines has a pressure loss device (X), a pump (Pi) and an organ directing flow (VAi) which sends to the analyzer a sample, a purge gas or a calibration gas. The organs directing flow are 3-way electrovalves, or are junctions downstream of which a valve allows or obstructs flow in each direction. The initial sources are at a pressure greater than, equal to or less than atmospheric pressure and are samples taken from a gas distribution system or vessel containing a gaseous atmosphere. The device contains only one analysis line connecting to the tertiary line at its inlet, with the analyzers arranged in series, or there is an analysis line for each analyzer.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil de fonds de puits destiné à générer rapidement et à réguler l'énergie électrique à sortie variable par la modification de l'alignement d'une paire d'aimants permanents (84, 82), disposés axialement l'un près de l'autre et tournant à l'intérieur d'un induit (88) qui possède des enroulements conducteurs d'électricité. Chacun des aimants permanents (84, 82) possède plusieurs segments d'aimants permanents dont la magnétisation alterne de manière circulaire. Un des aimants permanents (82) est fixé à l'arbre d'entraînement (86), l'autre aimant permanent (84) étant monté mobile sur l'arbre d'entraînement (82) pour assurer l'alignement ou le désalignement, selon les besoins, des magnétisations des segments magnétiques respectifs sur la paire d'aimants permanents (84, 82). Lorsque les magnétisations sont complètement alignées, un maximum de puissance électrique est généré dans les enroulements de l'induit principal (88). Inversement, lorsque les magnétisations sont complètement désalignées, aucune énergie électrique n'est générée. Ainsi peut-on réguler la puissance de sortie en modifiant l'alignement de la paire d'aimants permanents (84, 82) au moyen d'un générateur de couple de traînée qui crée un couple de traînée, transmis à l'aimant permanent mobile (84) par un convertisseur de couple.
