Abstract: L'invention concerne un pneu à bande de roulement améliorée, constitué d'un ensemble bande de roulement-ceintures amovible, monté sur la surface périphérique extérieure d'une carcasse de pneu multinappes, dont un pli de carcasse noyé présente des extrémités de retournement entourant les tringles et s'étendant axialement vers l'intérieur à partir desdites tringles. Les extrémités les plus à l'extérieur des premières et deuxièmes extrémités de retournement sont situées radialement vers l'extérieur à une distance représentant environ 2 à 3 fois le diamètre des tringles, de sorte que ces extrémités sont supportées par les extrémités du rebord de la jante lorsqu'une carcasse de pneu montée sur la jante subit une déflexion. Les extrémités de retournement sont donc supportées par des premier, deuxième, troisième et quatrième éléments de bourrage sur tringle disposés autour de chacune des tringles. La ligne de pli de la première nappe de plis de carcasse peut également suivre la ligne de pli naturelle.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une bande (12) comportant une couche de support (22) sur laquelle est formée une couche adhésive (24). Une pluralité de lignes de perforations (32) s'étendent sur la bande (12) pour la séparer en feuilles. Ces feuilles présentent des longueurs progressivement croissantes de telle manière que, lorsque les feuilles sont enroulées pour former un rouleau (10), chaque feuille est plus longue que la feuille inférieure. Une fois le rouleau formé, la feuille le plus à l'extérieur recouvre la totalité des lignes de perforations afin de réduire les risques de déchirure de la bande dans un sens descendant.

Abstract: The invention relates to glucagon-related peptides and their use for the prevention or treatment of disorders involving the upper gastrointestinal tract including the esophagus and stomach. In particular, it has now been demonstrated that GLP-2 and peptidic agonists of GLP-2 can cause proliferation of the tissue of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Thus, the invention provides methods of proliferating the upper gastrointestinal tract in a subject in need thereof. Further, the methods of the invention are useful to treat or prevent inflammatory conditions of the upper gastrointestinal tract, including inflammatory diseases.  GLP-2 stimulates the growth of upper gastrointestinal tissue when administered in conjunction with other peptide hormones. The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions of GLP-2 with at least one other peptide hormone, methods of enhancing the growth of upper gastrointestinal tissue and of gastrointestinal disorders by increasing serum levels of GLP-2 and at least one other peptide hormone, an kits for performing the methods of the invention.

Abstract: A method and system for providing a user interface for a networked target device using panel subunit descriptor information maintained by the target device. The present invention utilizes a panel subunit to allow any compliant device (e.g., a target device) to describe the appearance of its physical (and logical) controls and displays to another device (e.g., an intelligent controller) and allows the controller to trigger actions on the target as if a user had physically manipulated the controls on the target device directly. The panel subunit uses objects defined with several standard types of controls and displays (e.g., push buttons, sliders, dials, LCD screens, etc.) that are commonly found on consumer electronic devices. The control types have well defined behaviors (e.g., buttons are pushed, dials are moved, values are input, etc.). In addition, the panel subunit defines a set of commands which are to be applied to any of these controls when selected by the user. The commands are defined to be sufficiently generic so that they apply to most types of controls. The panel subunit also defines generic user interaction commands (or user events) which can be applied to the controls (e.g., press, press and hold, release, input value, etc.) by a user. The purpose of these user events is to encapsulate the typical user manipulated action for the controls and to let the target device decide the manner in which to interpret the user actions on its own. A status descriptor keeps the intelligent controller informed of the status of the target device being manipulated.

Abstract: Packaging for at least two tablet shaped objects, especially detergent or cleansing agent tablets, in the form of a closed foil bag. The aim of the invention is to improve said packaging in as simple a manner possible in order to prevent several tablets in the same packaging from being damaged while at the same time allowing for all tablets contained in said packaging to be removed in a single opening process. This is achieved by dividing the interior of the foil bag (1) into a number of areas (5, 6) corresponding to the amount of tablets (4) that are to be accommodated. Each area is separated from by a seam (7, 7', 7'') which prevents the adjacent tablets (4) from coming into contact with each other. The seam (7, 7', 7'') extends between the accommodating areas (5, 6) at certain points only, whereby a seamless zone (8, 8', 8'') is created. A tear-off line (9, 9', 9'') is also provided, touching all of the accommodating areas (5, 6) along the seamless zones (8, 8', 8'') when torn.

Abstract: A fuel fired drying system for a continuous material feed has the material (WB) passed horizontally between upper and lower drying jets (3,4) fed by twin blowers which draw hot gasses from a common duct (11). The hot gasses comprise combustion gasses from the burner and recirculated gasses. If the material feed stops, a safety procedure switches the by-pass flaps for the lower drying jets to shut off the drying flow onto the material while the blower of the other jets has its speed reduced, or stopped, by a frequency switch. With the by-pass flaps switched into the safety setting a recirculating gas flow is maintained so that the drying process can be re-started at the selected temperature.
