Abstract: The ring (10) is for a clip having two opposite elastic arms with jaws and joined together at an end-section. It slides in the lengthwise direction on the clamping section of the clip between the end-section and the jaws, and has a portion engaging between the arms. Diametrally-opposite protrusions (12) extending inwards into the area (13) enclosed by it are integral with the ring, and are typically formed by radial ribs. The maximum length of the latter can be equal to half the radius of the space enclosed by the ring. Adjacent to the ribs, the inner surface of the ring can form a curve, or can alternatively be elliptical. The outer ring surface can be circular or elliptical. Diametrally-opposite external protrusions can also be provided on the ring.

Abstract: This homogeneous, elastic floor covering, is made as plastic sheet or tiles, with a non-directional colour pattern. Multicoloured granules, made from two or more coloured masses are used. These comprise polymeric binders, pigments and/or dyes and fillers, with additives and processing agents, as required. The granules are compressed or consolidated into sheet or tiles. The width and thickness of the granules are similar, the length about 3-20 times the width. Their colour regions show distinct, unmixed tints, and lie parallel to the length of the granule. The length of a granule colour region is a multiple of its width.

Abstract: Devices are described for fitting into pressurised packaged beverages (typically canned beers, ales and stouts), by which gas at high pressure is stored within the package for jetting into the beverage as the package is opened to atmosphere. One embodiment comprises a moulded plastics capsule (34; 50; 78) secured near the bottom of a can (20; 88) with an internal, preferably central, pipe (56; 62; 80) to provide a liquid seal to prevent loss of gas when the can is inverted from the upright position, and an airlock when the can is upright, to prevent beverage which has entered the capsule from leaving it when the cam is opened to atmosphere. A further design of capsule (96), having a central internal pipe (98) and adapted to be pressurised solely by the ingress of beverage, is fitted midway down a can (94) but still only jets gas upon opening. A method of inserting the capsule is also described.

Abstract: A cross-domain data transfer technique is disclosed in which page remapping operations are eliminated in situations where physical memory addresses can be passed across domains. By passing physical memory addresses across domains instead of virtual memory addresses, the page remapping operations necessarily associated with passing virtual memory addresses across domains can be avoided in many cases. With the receipt of data across domains, page remapping operations are able to be deferred until the data is received in a domain that needs to touch the data. In certain cases, the transfer of data can be completed without ever having to map in the data to the receiving domain's address space. With the transmission of data across domains, where possible the pages are borrowed in their physical form. The invention can be embodied in many ways, including system, apparatus or method forms.

The apparatus has a drive shaft from which at least one pivot arm radially projects. A displacement member is rotatably mounted on an end portion of the at least one pivot arm. The displacement member is connected to the drive shaft by an endless loop so that, upon a rotary movement of the drive shaft the associated displacement member performs a circular movement around the drive shaft and in so doing remains in parallel orientation with respect to the direction of advance movement of the first conveyor. The pivot arm involves a lower angular speed during the phase of contact of the displacement member against an article to be transferred than during the phase of displacing the article.

Abstract: A disk (1) is constituted of a substrate (11), an aluminum signal layer (12) in which pits (14) are made, and a protective plate (13). An information reproducing device reproduces information from the disk (1) by means of a reproducing circuit (5) by convergently emitting an electron beam (E) from an electron gun (40) and detecting the variation of the intensity of the reflection of the beam (E) with a detector (42). A recording medium (20) is constituted of a conductive layer (22), an insulating layer (23), and an island-like fixed electrode (24) formed on the layer (23) and electrically insulated from its periphery. The fixed electrode (24) has a memory function. To write information on the medium (20), electrons are implanted into the electrode (24) with an electron gum (40). To erase all the information at a time, a voltage is applied across the conductive layer (22). To read out information, the electrostatic effect between the fixed electrode (24) and its counter electrode is utilized. Therefore, the information recording capacity of the medium (20) is increased and the information reading accuracy from the medium (20) is improved.

Abstract: The proximal connector includes a stainless steel cone-shaped ferrule enclosing a proximal end of the optic fiber element. The ferrule is inserted within a matching aperture of a receiving block which is also made of stainless steel. The matching shapes of the ferrule and the aperture of the receiving block ensure effective heat transference from the ferrule into the receiving block. Both ferrule and the aperture are axially symmetric such that any rotation of the proximal connector while inserted into the receiving block does not change the location of the entrance aperture of the optic fiber element. The proximal connector also includes a case having an indented ring. A ball plunger biasing mechanism is mounted within the aperture of the receiving block and is positioned for engaging with the indented ring only while the proximal connector is fully and securely inserted within the aperture. The plunger prevents accidental removal of the proximal connector while also providing a biasing force for ensuring solid contact between the cone-shaped ferrule and the corresponding portions of the receiving block to further facilitate the heat conduction.

Abstract: Bei einem Rohrleitungssystem für die Übertragung von Fernwärme oder sonstigen flüssigen Medien mit einem das Medium führenden Innenrohr, einem das Innenrohr mit Abstand umgebenden Außenrohr sowie Füllmaterial und einer Sensorleitung aus Kupfer oder dergl. im Raum zwischen den beiden Rohren werden undichte Stellen im Rohrleitungssystem entweder mittels Widerstandsortung oder mittels Laufzeitortung ermittelt. Das wird mit dem für die Widerstandsortung bisher ungeeigneten Sensorleiter aus Kupfer erreicht, indem der Rohrleitung an einer oder mehreren vorbestimmten Stellen Schalter zugeordnet sind, die zwischen der Sensorleitung und der Rohrleitung eine niederohmige Verbindung zur Simulation einer Fehlerstelle herstellen können, und/oder Temperaturmeßsensoren, die einen Einfluß unterschiedlicher Temperaturen auf den Widerstand der Sensorleitungen an vorbestimmten Stellen angeben. Bei Herstellung einer solchen niederohmigen Verbindung kann durch eine Ortung, z.B. die Widerstandsortung, überprüft werden, ob der durch Ortung ermittelte Ort des so simulierten Fehlers von dem durch die Lage des Schalters bekannten Ort abweicht oder nicht. Die über die Trasse verteilten Schalter und/oder der Temperaturvergleich werden zur Ermittlung und Einführung von Korrekturwerten in das Ortungsverfahren genutzt.
