Patent CA-2945291-A1 (CA)
Title: La commande bi-manuelle mecanique synchrone
Inventor: PRUNEAU MARTIAL M P
IPC: F16P3/18
Filed: 2016-10-13
Abstract: L'un des principes de protection reconnus en santé et sécurité au travail est l'éloignement du travailleur de la zone de danger d'une machine. Ce principe d' éloignement est à la base d'un dispositif de protection appelé commande bi-manuelle, c'est-à-dire que la commande de la machine nécessite l'utilisation simultanée et synchronisée des deux mains de l'opérateur pour initier et maintenir un mouvement dangereux d'une machine auquel l'opérateur est exposé. Cette solution strictement mécanique sans aucun support de circuit électrique, pneumatique, hydraulique ou autre est à la base de cette invention. La solution inventée est très simple et compacte, conçue pour actionner un dispositif de contrôle (hydraulique, pneumatique, etc.) directionnel, qui à son tour gère l'équipement qui y est rattaché (valve hydraulique, pneumatique etc.). L'opérateur doit tirer ou pousser les deux leviers avec ses deux mains de façon simultanée et synchronisée et ce dans la même direction, pour actionner et maintenir la fonction, empêchant par le fait même les mains de l'opérateur d'accéder à une zone dangereuse. De plus, si l'opérateur relâche la commande d'une ou des deux mains, la commande revient automatiquement en position neutre, stoppant la fonction de manière automatique. La sécurité du système est pratiquement impossible à contourner et est par conséquent immunisée contre la fraude de l'opérateur.

Abstract: A method, system and device enable transferring an audio signal between devices of a single user. The method includes pairing, over a master-less communication link, a narrowband communication device operating in a narrowband communication system and a broadband communication device operating in a broadband communication system. A call is then established between the narrowband communication device and the narrowband communication system or between the broadband communication device and the broadband communication system. Next, an audio quality parameter is determined at at least one of the narrowband communication device and the broadband communication device. An audio signal of the call is then transmitted, over the master-less communication link and in response to the audio quality parameter, from one to the other of the broadband communication device and the narrowband communication device.

De façon habituelle, le tuyau utilisé d'ordinaire pour charger le circuit de chauffage doit être retiré après que des clapets d'isolation ont été fermés au niveau de l'entrée (4) et de la sortie. (6) Toutefois, on a vu des opérateurs négligents laisser souvent le tuyau en place avec les clapets d'isolation ouverts, entraînant de sérieux dommages sur la chaudière. Un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention comprend un clapet de régulation de pression (25) dans le dispositif à boucle de remplissage pour empêcher des opérateurs négligents de charge le système à une pression excessive. Un troisième mode de réalisation prévoit un clapet de régulation de pression dans le circuit, normalement sollicité dans un état fermé avec un actionneur de corps mort pour ouvrir le canal.
