Abstract: Système permettant de transformer entièrment ou partiellement la cabine (2) pour les passagers prévue dans un fuselage (1) d'avion pour transporter des marchandises. La cabine comprend des parois longitudinales (10) et un plafond (8) finis à l'intérieur qui définissent une hauteur interne en coupe transversale ayant une section transversale sensiblement uniforme. Ce système comprend une structure de garnissage interne rigide démontable dont l'épaisseur externe se loge dans un espage interne de la cabine sans toucher les parois et le plafond. Cette structure est formée de groupes d'éléments (20, 26) enclenchables qui sont séparément suffisamment petits pour pouvoir passer par la porte (14) du fuselage d'un avion et elle est supportée entre les extrémités de la cabine seulement par les ancrages (32) déblocables qui bloquent les rails (16) de sièges installés dans la cabine, la structure de garnissage comprenant des dispositifs transversaux (50) de retenue des marchandises qui sont fixés de manière amovible sur cette dernière pour empêcher les marchandises de bouger dans cette structure de garnissage. Les modules forment une série de compartiments connectés longidudinalement, chaque compartiment comprenant une entretoise (26) et des ancrages qui servent à fixer un dispositif de retenue de marchandises à son extrémité avant, le compartiment situé le plus à l'arrière étant fermé à son extrémité arrière par un dispositif (60, 62) de retenue de marchandises connecté au fuselage de l'avion à la place d'une paroi de séparation (4) arrière amovible, qui peut être replacée à l'avant de la structure de garnissage, la cabine n'est que partiellement transformée.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de déterminer la température d'une soudure par points (5) réalisée entre deux pièces (1, 2) composées d'au moins un premier métal, qui est formée à l'aide d'au moins une électrode (3, 4) réalisée dans un second métal et qui est en contact avec une des pièces (1, 2). La température est déterminée à partir d'une tension thermoélectrique mesurée entre l'électrode (3, 4) et les pièces (1, 2). Selon l'invention, une première valeur mesurée est déterminée pour la tension thermoélectrique avant la réalisation de la soudure par points (5), et une seconde valeur mesurée est déterminée pour la tension thermoélectrique, après que ladite soudure par points (5) ait été réalisée. La température est ensuite déterminée en tenant compte de la première comme de la seconde valeur mesurée. Le procédé s'applique notamment pour l'évaluation de la qualité de la soudure par points (5). Le procédé et le dispositif s'utilisent notamment pour la détermination de la température ou l'évaluation de la qualité d'une pluralité de soudures par points (5) successives à réaliser, dans les cas où interviennent des variations marquées de la température de l'électrode (3, 4) et des variations correspondantes de chacune des tensions thermoélectriques mesurées.

Abstract: A method in which a temperature is generated across a gradient block, and an apparatus comprising a block (2, 17, 18, 19) across which a temperature gradient can be generated. By setting up such a gradient, multiple reaction mixtures held in wells (3) on the gradient block (2, 17, 18, 19) can be simultaneously run at temperatures which differ only slightly, thereby permitting an optimum temperature for the reaction to be quickly identified. In a preferred embodiment, the gradient block (2, 17, 18, 19) is integrated into a thermal cycler used for nucleic acid amplification reactions.

Abstract: The position location system uses position data for the vehicle provided by a satellite navigation system, combined with information obtained from a digitalised street map, to determine the street position of the vehicle. The attenuation of the transmitted satellite signals limits the vehicle positioning accuracy, improved by comparing data detected onboard the vehicle with reference patterns for identifying the type of road along which the vehicle is travelling, the corresponding road of this type selected from the street map via the position data.

Abstract: A pumping segment of a fluid line alternately in fluid communication with the upstream and downstream portions of the fluid line connects a fluid supply to a fluid receiver. A pressure sensor located downstream of the segment monitors the pressure during the segment's communication with the upstream and downstream ends. The pressure difference is used to establish a pressure threshold against which the average pressure is compared to determine if an upstream occlusion exists. Should the average pressure fall within a cautionary zone, the pump is reversed to examine the pressure difference once again. Based on the pressure difference during the reversal, a pressure threshold line may be adjusted thereby adapting to fluid administration conditions.

Abstract: A plurality of materials are rolled in an upstream stand (10). While transfer speed of a succeeding material and the front end position thereof are detected, the transfer speed and the rear end position of a preceding material are detected by a measuring roll (28). The transfer speed of the succeeding material is controlled by adjusting at least the drive speed of the pinch rolls (27) so as the front end of the succeeding material to contact with the rear end of the preceding material at a specified position in a travelling welder (24). The rear end of the preceding material is joined with the front end of the succeeding material by flash-butt welding using the travelling welder (24) to form a continuous material while letting the travelling welder (24) move at a speed synchronous with the transfer speed of the continuous material. The welded portion on the continuous material is ground and/or cut to remove burr therefrom. After removing the burr, the continuous material is continuously rolled by a down-stream stand (11), and apparatus for carrying out the above-described method. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Apparatus for determining the actual and proportional amounts of a volatile fluid in a test staple is described. The test staple is stored in a sealed container after being collected and kept in the sealed container through testing. The volatile fluid of interest is evolved from the test sample and a carrier gas transports the volatile fluid past a sensor. The sensor determined the relative amount of the volatile fluid of interest in the carrier gas. The flow rate of the carrier gas is precisely known and is predetermined. A microcomputer is utilized to predict with great accuracy the actual and proportional amount of the volatile fluid in the test sample.
