Title: Butterfly valve for regulating a fluid flow
Inventor: BOUVET THIERRY
IPC: F16K27/02
Filed: 1998-04-16
Abstract: The invention concerns a butterfly valve for regulating a fluid flow rate in particular the air flow rate of an air distributor in an internal combustion engine fuel injector, and the method for making said valve. Said valve (1) comprises a housing (2) traversed by a conduit (3) circulating the fluid wherein is provided a butterfly induction shutter (4) mounted on a control axis (5) perpendicular to the conduit axis. The invention is characterised in that it comprises a ring (6) coaxial with the conduit and set between the housing (2) and the induction shutter (4), the ring (6) being made of a material with good dimensional stability and the housing being moulded around said ring in a material resistant to the imposed technical constraints and said ring (6) is so arranged that, when the shutter is in closed position, there still is a predetermined clearance between the ring (6) active inner surface (13) and the induction shutter (4) arranged to allow a minimal and time-constant fluid flow rate whatever the variations in humidity or temperature. The invention is applicable to internal combustion engine and any device requiring fluid flow rate regulation.

Abstract: One or more photonic crystals 11, 22, 40, 58, 59 are formed directly in the path of light within an optical fiber 13, 23, 42, 56. Light processed by the photonic crystal may be transmitted out of the fiber by means of a lens 48 or it may be measured by a photoresistive device 51, 60. The photonic crystal may be formed in a trench 12 as an array of dielectric rods 16 having one or more selective defects 17, or the crystal may be formed by providing holes 20 directly in the optical fiber. Filling the interstices between rods 16 with non-linear optical material, and subjecting the crystal to a varying electric field applied by electrodes or to a varying optical radiation can produce a tunable photonic crystal within an optical fiber.

Abstract: La fonction d'un système de commande des repères de couleurs d'une presse d'imprimerie est de maintenir un repérage précis entre des couleurs imprimées sur une surface par divers cylindres d'impression. Ce système acquiert une image d'un groupe de marques de repère (712) imprimées par divers cylindres d'impression. La marque repère est une marque géométriquement unique. Le groupe de marques est enregistré par une caméra (708) et chaque modèle de marque est identifié par vérification de la forme de marques individuelles. L'emplacement résultant d'une marque est utilisé pour calculer et corriger des erreurs de repérage. L'image est analysée pour identifier des marques imprimées par les divers cylindres d'impression, une erreur de repère étant déterminée par calcul de la distance latérale et de la distance périphérique entre des marques imprimées par un cylindre d'impression et par un cylindre d'impression maître. Toute erreur détectée dans ce processus est corrigée par activation de moteurs de correction, généralement des moteurs pas à pas, montés sur les cylindres d'impression. Ce système de commande comprend un ordinateur compatible IBM-PC (700).

Abstract: An automatic performance apparatus is responsive to a manual
play of an input implement 14K for producing either of an
arpeggio performance and a pattern performance in a modified
form. In the apparatus, a sequencer AR or PS is responsive
to the manual play for generating a sequence of original note
data representing either of the arpeggio performance and the
pattern performance. An input device 15N1 is manually
operable to set control parameters effective to control at
least one of a tempo, a timing, a duration and a volume of
the original note data. A play effector PE processes the
original note data according to the control parameters to
generate altered note data. A transposer TP shifts the
altered note data by a predetermined interval to thereby
generate shifted note data. A note effector NE generates
additional note data in superposed relation to the shifted
note data such that the additional note data has the same
pitch as that of the shifted note data, or the additional
note data has the same pitch name as that of the shifted note
data but a different octave than the shifted note data, or
the additional note data has a predetermined interval
relative to the shifted note data. A tone generator TS is
receptive of the shifted note data and the additional note
data for generating corresponding musical tones to thereby
provide the modified form of either of the arpeggio
performance and the pattern performance.

Abstract: The substrate (1A) thermoplastic foam core (2) is bonded to a first outer layer (3) comprising thermoplastic and natural fibers. Bonded to the core, opposite the first layer, a second outer layer (4) comprises a second thermoplastic with second natural fibers. An Independent claim is included for the method of manufacture, comprising a series of preheatings and hot pressure laminations, followed by cooling. A further independent claim covers the equipment used to carry out the process. Preferred features: Plastic layers and foam comprise the same plastic. The natural fibers are gambo (kenaf). They are embedded in the plastic material of the outer layers. Polyolefin fibers may also be included. Natural fibers amount to 30%-70% of the outer layers. Outer layers are thermally-fused to the core. It is specified that no glass fibers, no polyurethane, no epoxy resin and no adhesive shall be included. The core foam, in polypropylene, is air-permeable. Its density is 800-900 g/m<2>. The thickness of the core is 4-8 mm. It is sufficiently rigid to be self-supporting and dimensionally-stable. A covering panel (5) is placed on the second, outer layer. This is either a textile fabric, e.g. a knit, or else a synthetic film. It has a polyolefin backing, bonded to the second outer layer. The composite has a three-dimensional (6), contoured, dimensionally-stable configuration. A trilayer variant is described. Significant features of the method include controlled cooling time and an outer layer preheating temperature of 180 - 200 degrees C. Core preheating temperature is 40 - 100 degrees C. Outer layers are precompressed before bonding.
