Inventor: CATHENAUT PHILIP IGOR
IPC: A23G9/24
Filed: 1996-11-12
Abstract: Unit for preparation of iced products has the ability to both dispense under gravity and to extract by suction. It dispenses viscous material into successively advancing moulds (15), under freezing conditions which solidify the products. The unit comprises a dosing hopper (3) for the viscous material. It has a filler and suction connection near the top. Below the level of the viscous material, there is a dosing valve for the containers arriving underneath. A control system keeps the product reserve in the hopper between set high- and low levels. The suction line (4) connects via a point near the top of the hopper, above the level of the viscous material, to an external pipette (7) descending into the moulds. The external pipette extracts the still-fluid centre from the moulds and recycles it directly back into the hopper.

Abstract: In a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including at least negative electrode, a positive electrode, and a lithium-ion-conductive nonaqueous electrolyte, a lithium-containing silicon oxide which is represented by a composition formula Li x SiO y  where a lithium content x and an oxygen content y are restricted to be in respective ranges of 1.5 ≦ x ≦ 4 and 0 < y < 2 is used as a negative -electrode active material. It is even preferable that the above negative electrode be combined with a positive electrode having, as a positive-electrode active material, a transition metal oxide, particularly a lithium-containing metal oxide, selected from Co, Ni, Mn, Fe, V, W, Nb, Ti, and the like. 
     The potential of the negative-electrode active material is low, i.e., base, the charge/discharge capacity is large in a base potential range of 0 to 1 V with respect to metal lithium, and the polarization (internal resistance) during charge and discharge is small. Therefore, there can be obtained a secondary battery which has a high voltage and a high energy efficiency, is superior in large-current chraging/dischraging characteristics, and has a high charging/discharging efficiency. Further, the secondary battery is highly reliable; that is, it is free of such failures as internal short-ciruiting due to dendrite generation, is stable, and has a long cycle life.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FR96/01251 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 21, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 21, 1998 PCT Filed Aug. 6, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/07423 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 27, 1997An optical device for homogenizing a laser beam is described. Such a device is commonly used in the surface treatment of an object. The device consists of front lenses that are bonded together to form an assembly of lenses that breaks the laser light into multiple beams. This results in the homogenization of the gaussian profile of the beam intensity as viewed perpendicular to the beam's propagation. Advantageously the matrix of lenses is formed using groves or bevels in a manner that minimizes losses resulting from light impinging on glue disposed upon the entire lateral surface of the front lenses. In the invention gaps between front lenses that cause interference with the light path are eliminated. This gap free bonding is accomplished by filling the groves or bevels with glue, inserting a rod or wire into the grove to assemble the front lenses in a support frame, bonding a grill to assembled front lenses, or by using a combination of gluing with a support frame.

Abstract: A self-drive blast apparatus in accordance with the present invention surrounds a area wherein two wall surfaces intersect at a specified angle, to form a substantially sealed space between the apparatus and the wall surfaces, and the body of the blast apparatus adheres by suction onto the wall surfaces by reducing the pressure in the space, so that the apparatus can move along the two wall surfaces and conduct blast cleaning by projecting blast material onto the wall surfaces. The apparatus is capable of moving along the wall surfaces in retaining suction-adhered condition by driving wheels held in positions generally perpendicular to the corresponding wall surface. And, while the apparatus is moving, a blast cleaning process is performed on the wall surfaces in the space. The projected blast material, the dirt removed by the blast material, and the like are blown up in the space and recovered through a depressurization path by the air which introduced into the space during the depressurization of the space.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un décodeur de longueurs variables à hautes performances, qui comprend un circuit d'étiquetage des limites de mots codes dans un train de binaires arrivant, donnant à la sortie un flot d'étiquettes et un train de binaires mis en bus qui coïncide dans le temps avec le flot d'étiquettes à la sortie. Le flot d'étiquettes mis en bus, à la sortie, est relié à une entrée d'un circuit parallèle de calcul de longueur de mots à grande vitesse, et le train de binaires sortant mis en bus est relié à une entrée d'un circuit parallèle décodeur de valeurs. Le circuit parallèle de calcul de longueurs de mots (boucle de décodage de longueurs de mots) reçoit le flot d'étiquettes mis en bus et calcule (décode) la longueur d'un mot code singulier dans un mode de fonctionnement singulier ou les longueurs d'un ou plusieurs mots codes contigus dans un mode de fonctionnement contigu. Le circuit de calcul de longueurs de mots utilise des tables de consultation indépendantes d'un type plus rapide pour décoder les longueurs des mots codes représentés par le flot d'étiquettes mis en bus, permettant ainsi un décodage beaucoup plus rapide des longueurs de mots pour la très grande majorité des mots codes dans le train de binaires arrivant. L'opération de décodage indépendante du type de mots augmente le degré de parallélisme dans le traitement et, par conséquent, le débit du décodeur de longueurs variables qui peut être obtenu à des vitesses d'horloge plus basses. Le circuit parallèle décodeur de valeurs reçoit le train de binaires mis en bus du circuit d'étiquetage et décode les valeurs d'un mot code isolé dans un mode de fonctionnement qui est le premier ou isolé, ou un ou plusieurs mots codes contigus en parallèle dans un mode de fonctionnement qui est le deuxième ou contigu. Le mode de fonctionnement (isolé ou contigu) est choisi en fonction d'un signal de commande produit par un circuit de commande qui commande le fonctionnement du décodeur de longueurs variables sur la base de mots codes du moment et de mots codes décodés auparavant, conformément à un protocole de décodage prescrit, par exemple un protocole MPEG.
