record medium (4) to a second radiation beam (13A), before,
and/or during, and/or after exposure to the first recording
beams (10A). The second radiation beam (13A) has an energy
level less than the threshold but sufficiently high that
the total energy in a region where information is to be
recorded exceeds the threshold when that region has been

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil utilisé pour effectuer des séparations multiples simultanées afin de mesurer l'absorbance, et comprenant un réseau de photodétecteurs constitué de plusieurs éléments photosensibles reliés de sorte qu'une sortie en série soit produite. Les éléments sont généralement des pixels d'un réseau de photodiodes (PDA). Les éléments sont illuminés par une source lumineuse positionnée de sorte qu'elle illumine au moins une partie du réseau de photodétecteurs. La source lumineuse peut être une lampe à vapeur de mercure CA ou CC ou une autre source lumineuse utilisable pour la chromatographie. Un réseau de canaux de séparation est placé entre la source lumineuse et le réseau de photodétecteurs, chaque canal comportant une lumière, une extrémité pour l'introduction d'échantillons à l'opposé de laquelle se trouve une région de détection. Le réseau est un système à électrophorèses capillaires parallèles et multiples. Le dernier élément est un élément de masquage présentant au moins une ouverture pour chaque canal de séparation associé, ce qui permet à la lumière de la source lumineuse de passer sélectivement dans la lumière du canal de séparation associé, au moins une partie de la lumière passant dans la lumière dudit canal tombant sur un élément photosensible respectif du réseau de photodétecteurs pour permettre la mesure de l'absorption de la lumière par un échantillon introduit dans l'extrémité pour l'introduction d'échantillons du canal de séparation associé. L'invention porte aussi sur un instrument pour l'analyse de la teneur spectrale d'échantillons chimiques contenus dans un grand nombre de tubes capillaires, qui utilise une source lumineuse (qui produit ainsi une sortie de lumière variable dans le temps) et un détecteur PDA à auto-balayage. Ainsi, on réduit sensiblement le nombre d'éléments de circuit requis, car seulement un convertisseur A/N, une seule source et un seul détecteur sont nécessaires. Le dispositif résultant peut être construit à moindres frais et occupe moins d'espace que le système classique. De plus, un signal de commande ayant une fréquence particulière est envoyé à l'alimentation de la source lumineuse CA et au détecteur PDA, ce qui stabilise la ligne de base du signal du détecteur.

Abstract: The propeller tail is intended to be applied to yachts, fishing boats
and the like, and is designed to be mounted either internally or externally
with respect to the boat itself. The propeller tail structure is based on two
truncated groups (11 and 12), the first truncated group being associated
to a crown (9) which receives the attack of a gear which moves through
the corresponding motor so that the upper truncated group (11) transmits,
by means of an axial connection shaft (13), the motion to the lowering
truncated group (12) in order to transmit by means of another crown (23)
the rotation to the shaft (21) on which is mounted the corresponding
propeller (6), all of which being complemented by a rotation system
based on a hydraulic rack (28) which is immersed in oil and which is
in mesh with a crown (27) so that the final reduction selected from the
motor-shift unit to the propeller (6) is achieved through the truncated
groups (11 and 12).

Abstract: An article including a panel-like structure constructed to be mounted in an automobile vehicle to form a part of the interior thereof, and a process for making the same. According to this process, an outer layer defining at least a portion of the exposed exterior surface of the structure is prepared by applying a water-dispersed thermoplastic polyurethane composition and a heat-activated reactive crosslinking monomer onto a mold surface and thereafter drying the composition. Next, a rapidly reacting composition is sprayed onto an inner surface of the outer layer while the outer layer is retained on the mold surface to form a polyurethane elastomer inner layer that is interfacially chemical bonded to the outer layer. The inner layer with the outer layer interfacially chemically bonded thereto is then united with the rigid substrate so that the rigid substrate serves to reinforce the outer layer. The exposed exterior surface of the panel-like structure simulates the appearance and feel of authentic leather, while the inner layer and an optional semi-rigid polyurethane cellular foam intermediate layer provide a compressing feel to the exposed portion of the outer layer.
