Abstract: Procédé permettant de prédire une caractéristique requise, telle que le temps d'épaississement d'une bouillie de ciment, et selon lequel l'on mesure, ou l'on détermine d'autres caractéristiques d'une composition de bouillie pour obtenir une valeur prédite de la caractéristique requise en comparant les valeurs représentant ces autres caractéristiques à celles d'un modèle établi en fonction de ces mêmes caractéristiques, pour une série de compositions à base de ciment, et en corrélant ces valeurs avec des valeurs mesurées de la caractéristique requise. Selon un mode de réalisation, le procédé consiste à mesurer et à déterminer les autres caractéristiques et à introduire des valeurs correspondant auxdites caracteristiques dans un dispositif à réseau neuronal configuré de façon à produire une valeur représentant la caractéristique désirée, le réseau neuronal étant a) configuré de façon à pouvoir utiliser chacune desdites valeurs comme valeurs d'entrée, b) pourvu d'au moins un étage dissimulé composé d'au moins un n÷ud, et c) entraîné à l'aide d'un ensemble de données comprenant une série de valeurs représentant lesdites caractéristiques ainsi qu'une valeur correspondant à la caractéristique requise mesurée dans une bouillie présentant les caractéristiques mesurées.

Abstract: An air-operated combination diaphragm spring brake has a tamper-resistant clamp provided between a head (46) and a spring side of a flange case (18) which together form a spring chamber (16) housing a power spring (72). The head (46) has an annular rim (70), and the flange case has an annular flange (74) with a diaphragm (48) sandwiched therebetween in an interface (76). An annular retaining member (78) has a lip (86) which tightly captures a step (80) on the annular rim as the annular retaining member (78) is drawn over the interface (76) to form the tamper-resistant clamp. <IMAGE>

Abstract: To produce sprayed concrete, a "lean" cement is not mixed with the aggregate in a mixer but rather brought together with the aggregate immediately before or during pneumatic conveying. In the case of the latter variant, the pneumatic conveying stream is charged first with the binder and then with the aggregate in two feeding stations (1; 2) connected one behind the other. The feeding of the material into the pneumatic conveying stream, with its intensively mixing effects, if appropriate also the mixing effect over the length of the conveying stream, replaces the mixing operation in a mixer. Under these conditions, the aggregate does not need to be dried. The duration during which the binder is subject to the moisture of the aggregate is reduced to seconds. There is no clotting or other disturbances of the conveying and of the mixing with the water at the spray nozzle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A dispenser for flowable materials includes an outer barrel which is telescoped over a plunger. A piston head may be separate and distinct member from the plunger itself and may be prepackaged in the barrel with the material to be dispensed located in a chamber above the piston head. When the barrel is telescoped over the plunger, the piston head seats on the plunger and forces fluid from a dispensing spout in the barrel. The piston head carries a sealing rim which creates a seal as the barrel is moved downwardly on the plunger. The barrel may be in the form of a cartridge mounted in a jacket-like holder with a seal between the cartridge and holder.

Abstract: A limited-life reusable hard pack for encasing a soft pack of cigarettes is disclosed. The reusable hard pack permits easy access to the cigarettes by the feature of a slideable interior wall 20 attached to a pivotable bottom wall which when moved relative to the exterior walls of the hard pack pushes the soft pack upward and beyond the top of the hard pack. An overhang on a top wall 50 extends across and beyond one side wall 25 to prevent the bottom wall from pivoting downward, beyond the bottom plane of the hard pack. The opposite side of the top wall leaves a gap through which cigarettes may be removed without opening the top closure. A tuck portion 60 is pivotably attached to the top wall. When the pack is closed, the tuck poriton lies inside and against the front wall 10 of the pack. One such hard pack is collapsed and inserted into a standard ten-pack carton. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a jet regulator (1) to be connected to sanitary fixtures or the like, having a jet-separating device which has a perforated plate which exhibits a number of throughflow holes in order to produce individual jets. The jet regulator (1) according to the invention is characterised in that at least one deflection slope (6, 7) is assigned to at least some of the throughflow holes, at a distance from their outflow side, which deflection slope is arranged, at least in its sub-region against which at least one of the individual jets flows, obliquely with respect to the flow direction (Pf1), and in that flow impediments formed by spaced-apart pins (11) and/or ribs (12) are arranged downstream of said deflection slope or deflection slopes (6, 7), as seen in the direction of deflection. The jet regulator according to the invention, which can do without the otherwise conventional jet-regulating screens, is distinguished by a low amount of noise formation and the production of a uniform full jet, the overall height of the jet regulator not exceeding the conventional overall height of jet regulators of this type. <IMAGE>

The controlled release phase can be achieved by providing an ion-exchange material which will form a complex with the nicotine. The ion-exchange material may be a polymeric material such as a polysaccharide, or may be in the form of bioadhesive ion-exchange microspheres. The pulse release can be achieved by overloading the ion-exchange material with nicotine so that the composition contains some excess nicotine for immediate release and absorption. Alternatively, some nicotine may be associated with a non ion-exchange material which will release the nicotine immediately on contact with the nasal mucosa, for example non-ion-exchange bioadhesive microspheres.
