Abstract: The valve unit has a regulator piston (14), loaded via a control line (26,28,30) with the load pressure from the consumer. When a limit load pressure is exceeded, the piston is moved into a regulating position, in which a working connection (A) and a tank connection (S) are connected, and in which a pressure corresponding to the load pressure, acts on a piston end face (22). A measuring piston (32) is guided in the end face, and the piston has a radial bore (28) opening into an axial bore (26), to charge the measuring piston in closing direction, with the load pressure on the consumer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to modified linen slivers and yarns characterized by
increased crease resistance while maintaining the allomorph I content, the strength and
the beautiful appearance of the natural fibers. 
     In particular, the cross-linked linen slivers and yarns according to the invention have an
allomorph I content measured by solid state  13 C NMR of at least 40%, preferably at least
45%, and a solubility in cuproethylendiamine (Cued) 0.5 M lower than 1.4 g/l.

Abstract: A process and system for the vapor phase alkylation of an aromatic substrate in a multi-stage
alkylation reaction zone having a plurality of series-connected catalyst beds spaced from one
another to provide mixing zones between adjacent catalyst beds. A feedstock containing an
aromatic substrate and a C 2 -C 4  alkylating agent is supplied to an inlet side of the reaction zone.
The reaction zone is operated at conditions in which the aromatic substrate is in the gas phase
and causing vapor phase alkylation of the aromatic substrate as the aromatic substrate and the
alkylating agent flow through the reaction zone and pass from one catalyst bed to the next. A
quench fluid comprising one or both of the aromatic substrate and the alkylating agent is
supplied into the interior of the mixing zone through a plurality of flow paths in which one
portion of the flow paths is directed upwardly within the mixing zone and another portion
downwardly within the mixing zone. Alkylated product is then recovered from the downstream
side of the reaction zone. The quench fluid is supplied to the mixing zone through a plurality of
dispersion channels which are spaced laterally from one another and extend transversely across
the mixing chamber. At least some of the dispersion channels dispense the quench fluid
alternately, upwardly and downwardly within the mixing zone.

Abstract: An insulated-gate thin film transistor comprises a gate electrode and source (20) and drain (24) electrodes. The source and drain electrodes are laterally spaced apart, and are vertically separated from the gate electrode (12) by a gate insulator layer and an amorphous silicon layer. A region of the amorphous silicon layer (16) is vertically aligned with the lateral spacing between the source and drain electrodes defining the transistor channel, and the region of the amorphous silicon layer has a thickness of less than 100nm, and is doped with phosphorus atoms with a doping density of between 2.5 x 1016 and 1.5 x 1018 atoms per cm3. This enables the mobility to be increased so that the thickness reduction of the silicon layer can be tolerated. This thickness reduction enables the photosensitivity of the layer to be reduced sufficiently to avoid the need for a black mask layer.

Abstract: Data key actuated devices such as high security doors are modified so that they periodically transmit an identity pattern. An authorized user is provided with a portable access device storing keys for a number of such key actuated devices, with each key associated with an identity pattern for that device. The portable access device has a stored template comprising a fingerprint of the authorized user combined with a verification code. When the authorized user applies their fingerprint to the portable access device the verification code is returned which allows verification of the user. If the access device then receives a key actuated device identifier matching one in storage, the associated access key is retrieved and transmitted to the key actuated device to allow access to the user.

Abstract: There is disclosed a unified messaging system in which a voice mail
domain object comprising a plurality of fields is provided. These fields
provide system configuration information identifying the individual
voice servers and their respective functionality. This information is
stored in a directory server (110) rather than in the individual voice
servers. At least one of such fields is selected to be defined as an
open field such that it is accessible to an administration application
of the system. 
The provision of the configuration information in the directory server
is to allow access by multiple voice servers thus saving space and more
importantly allowing administration changes to only have to be performed
once, rather than on each individual voice server. 
Application of such system and method is in the networking of multimedia
messaging servers of different vendors and thus using different
networking protocols, thus maximising the interaction capabilities of
the different servers.

ratchet (1) and crown (2), the ratchet (1) being able to
act automatically in the rotation of the ratchet with
respect to the crown or to be manually operated to carry
out the separation. The ratchet (1) is required to activate
the position of engagement with the crown (2) by means of

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour la surveillance de paramètres de fonctionnement et/ou de roulement d'un véhicule automobile. Selon l'invention, les données de mesure fournies par un capteur, servant à la surveillance des fonctions relatives au fonctionnement et/ou au roulement, sont contrôlées par la fonction de commande par rapport à l'angle d'inclinaison du véhicule automobile dans le sens longitudinal ou transversal du véhicule. Lorsque l'angle d'inclinaison dépasse une valeur de seuil prédéterminée, le message d'erreur n'est pas émis si l'erreur reconnue n'apparaît que pendant un court instant. Ainsi, par exemple, des messages d'erreur brefs concernant le niveau de remplissage du réservoir à essence, du réservoir d'eau de refroidissement et du carter du moteur et de la boîte ne sont pas émis. L'émission de messages d'erreur ne se fait que lorsqu'une erreur longtemps effective est présente. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, il est prévu, selon l'invention, que les messages d'erreur soient également détectés et exploités en fonction de paramètres de roulement dynamiques tels que les vitesses de rotation et/ou les accélérations. Une application préférée de cette invention concerne les véhicules tout terrain.

Abstract: In a valve-operating system (D) for an internal
combustion engine including a main valve lifter (11) lifted and
lowered along with a valve (3), a subsidiary valve lifter (12)
movable relative to the main valve lifter (11), a cam (15) for
a low-speed capable of operating the main valve lifter (11) in
a direction to open the valve, a cam (16) for a high-speed capable
of operating the subsidiary valve lifter (12) in a direction
to open the valve, and a connecting device (33) switched over
between a non-connecting state in which the valve lifters (11,
12) are disconnected from each other, and a connecting state
in which the valve lifters (11, 12) are connected to each other,
a valve spring (22) for biasing the valve (3) in a closing
direction is mounted between the valve (3) and an engine body
(1), and a lifter spring (23) for biasing the subsidiary valve
lifter (12) toward the cam (16) for the high speed is mounted
between the subsidiary valve lifter (12) and the engine body
(1). Thus, in a low-speed mode in which the main and subsidiary
valve lifters are in their non-connected states, an influence
of a load of the lifter spring on the valve can be prevented,
and in a high-speed mode in which the main and subsidiary valve
lifters are in their connected states, a sum total of loads of
the valve spring and the lifter spring can be applied to both
of the valve lifters to improve the closing responsiveness of
the valve.
