Title: Inert rendering method with a nitrogen buffer
Inventor: WAGNER ERNST WERNER
IPC: A62C3/00
Filed: 2001-11-12
Abstract: The invention relates to an inert rendering method for preventing and/or extinguishing fires in enclosed spaces, wherein an oxygen-inhibiting gas is introduced into the target area in order to adjust a first basic level of inertion with a reduced oxygen content in comparison with natural conditions, and wherein an oxygen-inhibiting gas is further introduced in a gradual or sudden manner (in the case of a fire) into the target area in order to adjust one or more levels of inertion with a similarly reduced oxygen content. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method, comprising an oxygen-measuring device in the target area and a source of an oxygen-inhibiting gas. The aim of the invention is to provide an inert rendering method and device for carrying out said method enabling the storage of extinguishing gas needed to extinguish a fire in a simple, economical manner without having to resort to premises which are normally specially provided therefor.

Abstract: L'invention concerne en règle générale des constructions, et en particulier des constructions génétiques comprenant des séquences polynucléotidiques capables de libération en forme circulaire, fermée par covalence, à partir d'une séquence nucléotidique plus grande telle que, entre autres, un génome d'une cellule eucaryote. Une fois libérée, une séquence polynucléotidique est de préférence reconstituée en une forme qui permet l'expression de celle-ci. Dans un mode de réalisation, la séquence polynucléotidique reconstituée comprend un séquence codante avec la totalité ou une partie d'une nucléotide extérieure telle que, entre autres, une séquence intronique ou un autre signal de jonction inséré dans celle-ci. L'expression, notamment la transcription, de la séquence codante implique la sortie de la séquence extérieure. La libération et la circularisation répondent généralement à un stimulus, tel qu'un stimulus induit par une protéine. Plus particulièrement, la protéine est d'origine virale, procaryote ou eurocaryote ou c'est une protéine à régulation spécifique de tissu et/ou de développement. La construction génétique de la présente invention s'avère particulièrement utile pour conférer une résistance génétique envers des agents pathogènes ou pour induire une apoptose ou un autre mécanisme de mort cellulaire utile, par exemple, dans le traitement du cancer ou dans la stérilisation mâle ou femelle des plantes. Ladite construction génétique permet ainsi l'expression spécifique du milieu et/ou l'expression à régulation de développement de séquences génétiques sélectionnées.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de régler un rapport de transmission d'une transmission montée dans la chaîne cinématique d'une automobile, lors de l'activation d'un système régulateur de vitesse adaptatif (système ACC). Une grandeur théorique est prédéfinie lors de l'activation de ce système régulateur de vitesse adaptatif. Au moins le moteur d'entraînement du véhicule est commandé en fonction de cette grandeur théorique. Cette invention est caractérisée en ce que, si un premier état de fonctionnement existe, cette grandeur théorique ou une valeur dérivée de cette grandeur théorique est limitée. Le réglage du rapport de transmission est alors effectué en fonction de la grandeur limitée ou en fonction de la valeur limitée. Si un second état de fonctionnement existe, le réglage du rapport de transmission est effectué en fonction de la grandeur théorique ou en fonction de la valeur. Cette invention permet d'éviter les opérations de rétrogradation superflues et inconfortables lors du fonctionnement du système ACC, sans avoir à renoncer à une forte accélération qui pourrait éventuellement être nécessaire.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method, a module and an algorithm for allocating radio resources to a plurality of radio bearers in a wireless communications network. In order to improve the allocation of resources, first the current activity status 21,22 is determined for each radio bearer and/or for each set of radio bearers of at least a selected group of radio bearers and/or of sets of radio bearers. Then, based on the probability p,q with which each radio bearer and/or set of selected group will change its current activity status 21,22, a value is determined which is indicative of the probability of outage. Finally, it is decided based on a comparison of the determined value indicative of the probability of outage with a predetermined threshold value whether the current allocation of radio resources will be changed. The invention equally relates to a wireless access network comprising a corresponding module.

Title: Method and device for tension levelling a cold-rolled strip and regulating the degree of levelling
Inventor: BEHRENS HOLGER
IPC: B21D1/05
Filed: 2001-08-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for tension levelling a cold-rolled strip, whereby the strip passes through a series of break rolls and a series of traction rolls and in the course of its extension is subjected to traction between the two series of rolls.
