Patent FR-2747785-A1 (FR)
Inventor: ACKLEY DONALD E
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-04-15
Abstract: A molecular detection apparatus (10) is formed by a substrate (12) which supports a binding site for receiving a molecular receptor (16), and a transistor integrated in the substrate. The transistor has a gate electrode (20), a source electrode (22), a drain electrode (24), and a semiconductive channel layer (26) which electrically couples the source electrode to the drain electrode. The semiconductive channel layer (26) is located proximate to the molecular receptor (16) so that a conductance between the source electrode and the drain electrode is modified by a charge associated with a molecule (28) which binds to the molecular receptor (16). Binding of the molecule to the molecular receptor (16) is sensed by a modified electrical characteristic of the transistor resulting from the charge associated with the molecule.

Patent FR-2765613-A1 (FR)
Inventor: BONDUEL PASCAL
IPC: E05F15/16
Filed: 1997-07-04
Abstract: The invention concerns a motor vehicle power-operated window lift, comprising a mechanism for driving the window, an electric motor (3) provided with an anti-pinch system which can be triggered when there is an obstacle on the window travel, and an electronic circuit for controlling the motor and the anti-pinch system. Said window lift comprises mechanical means (17) limiting the stiffness of an obstacle to reduce the pinch force on hard obstacles, by mechanically reducing the hardness of an obstacle when the window is being raised. In the case of a window lift operated with cable (8, 9) and a slide (12) guide rail (11) supporting the window, the stiffness limiting means consist of a spring (17) series-connected with the top cable (8) sheath, having a stiffness of about at least 10N/mm, and so arranged as to be urged to act as limit stop only by the effect of a compression force of about at least 250 Newton's. Said spring constitutes a shock absorber in case of strong impact, transforming it into a relatively mild impact, thereby providing more time for the electronic circuit controlling the anti-pinch system to intervene and reduce the pinch force.

Patent FR-2800476-A1 (FR)
Inventor: FONDEUR BARTHELEMY
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 1999-10-29
Abstract: A grating is provided having a generally s-shaped waveguide configuration. The grating includes a plurality of waveguides arranged adjacent to one another to form an array. The array (32) includes a first portion (34) bending in a counter-clockwise direction (36), a second portion (38) bending in a clockwise direction (40), and a third portion (38') extending in a straight direction. The arc length of each waveguide along the counter-clockwise cause some waveguides to be longer than others. This results in a clear separation of the individual waveguides. Further, the overall dimension of the grating is smaller than conventional devices which leads to reduced cross-talk.
