Filed: 2005-04-25
Granted: 2013-03-19
Abstract: The invention concerns a process for closing a hole (2) by friction welding, generally extending along an axis (5), in a metal part (1), no space being available in the axis (5) of the hole (2), at least one obstacle (6) on this axis (5) in which a metal bar (3), generally extending along and axis (4), is rotated around its axis (4) and is introduced into the hole (2) to be friction welded. The invention's process is characterised by the fact that the axis (4) of the bar (3) is inclined in relation to the axis (5) of the hole (2) at a non-nil angle (a) to avoid the obstacle (6). Thus, using the process in the invention, it is possible to access difficult-to-reach holes (2) by orienting the axis (4) of the bar (3) appropriately.

Filed: 2005-05-30
Granted: 2012-08-14
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for classifying a spoken utterance into at least one of a plurality of categories. A spoken utterance is translated into text and a confidence score is provided for one or more terms in the translation. The spoken utterance is classified into at least one category, based upon (i) a closeness measure between terms in the translation of the spoken utterance and terms in the at least one category and (ii) the confidence score. The closeness measure may be, for example, a measure of a cosine similarity between a query vector representation of said spoken utterance and each of said plurality of categories. A score is optionally generated for each of the plurality of categories and the score is used to classify the spoken utterance into at least one category. The confidence score for a multi-word term can be computed, for example, as a geometric mean of the confidence score for each individual word in the multi- word term.

Title: Process for the concentration of noble metals from fluorine-containing fuel cell components
Inventor: HAGELUEKEN CHRISTIAN
IPC: H01M6/52
Filed: 2004-05-17
Granted: 2013-02-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the concentration of noble metals from fluorine-containing components of fuel cells, for example from PEM  fuel cell stacks, DMFC fuel cells, catalyst-coated membranes (CCMs), membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs), catalyst pastes, etc. The process is based on an optionally multi-step heat treatment process comprising a combustion and/or a melting process. It allows an inexpensive, simple concentration of noble materials. The hydrogen fluoride formed during the heat treatment of fluorine-containing components is bound by an inorganic additive so that no harmful hydrogen fluoride emissions occur. The process can be used for the recovery of noble metals that are present as components in fuel cells, electrolysis cells, batteries, and the like.

Abstract: The invention can be defined in its most general form as a building unit, namely the sandwich panel with light core from corrugated sheet material in the form of zigzag crimp, and can be used in aircraft construction, as well as in shipbuilding and construction. Making use of the claimed invention will improve the weight efficiency, the strength and the manufacturability of the panel. The beneficial effect is attained due to the fact that the plane slanting ridges are connected along the protrusion and recess zigzag lines by means of curvilinear parts, whose radius is not less than the core material thickness, whereby along said parts is a line perforation enabling the adhesive material to get into the holes of the perforation in the course of core-skins assembling.
