Title: Separation d'un ensemble moteur dependante d'un impact frontal dans des voitures particulieres et des vehicules utilitaires
Inventor: GO GIOK DJIEN
IPC: B62D21/15
Filed: 1997-09-04
Granted: 2002-08-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système dans lequel l'ensemble moteur (10) se sépare, lors d'un impact frontal quelconque, d'un ou des deux longerons (30), cela quel que soit le type d'entraînement et le sens de montage du moteur. Etant donné que les longerons (30) ne sont plus exposés à l'énergie cinétique de l'ensemble moteur, tout en conservant les mêmes dimensions, soit ils peuvent absorber plus d'énergie de l'impact frontal, soit ils peuvent être conçus de façon à être moins rigides ou plus légers. Une faible énergie d'impact frontal est absorbée par des éléments de déformation extrêmement économiques et facilement remplaçables, placés dans la région frontale, sans déformation des longerons et sans séparation de l'ensemble moteur, tandis qu'une énergie élevée d'impact frontal est absorbée par une pluralité d'éléments de déformation et que l'ensemble moteur se sépare. Une construction légère qui permet à l'ensemble moteur de se séparer et à l'énergie d'être absorbée peut être obtenue par insertion, l'un dans l'autre, de profilés extrudés, de préférence en alliage léger, de façon à former un longeron.

Abstract: An oxygen concentrator is provided which has a first molecular sieve bed connected to a four-way valve (i.e., a cross-over valve) which either joins the sieve bed to a pressurized air source (compressed air ) or alternatively vents it to atmosphere. A second molecular sieve bed is also joined to the four-way valve in a corresponding manner. One bed is joined to the compressed air to produce oxygen-enriched air while the other is vented to atmosphere to cause evacuation. The sieve beds are joined at the outlet end to a product reservoir. The oxygen-enriched product gas passes from the reservoir to the patient. The sieve beds are also in fluid communication at the outlet end by means of a pressure equalization flow path. A concentration equalization val ve regulates the flow in the pressure equalization flow path. In order to purge the nitrogen from a used molecular sieve bed, a quantity of oxygen-enriched air is passed into the bed immediately before it is vented to atmosphere. In accordance with the present invention, the microprocessor uses a closed-loop feedback circuit to evaluate the amount of time that the output product gas is allowed to flow into the used sieve bed. Specifically, an incremental step advance is used assuming a peak value of the time of flow in one direction as compared to thetime of flow in the second direction. In a second embodiment, control means is provided based on a variable residence time ran ge and variable pressure set point.

Abstract: The present invention comprises methods of contact printing of patterned, self-assembling monolayers of alkanethiolates, carboxylic acids, hydroxamic acids, and phosphonic acids on metallized thermoplastic films, the compositions produced thereby, and the use of these compositions. Patterned self-assembling monolayers allow for the controlled placement of fluids thereon which contain a chemically reactive, indicator functionality. The optical sensing devices produced thereby when the film is exposed to an analyte and light, can produce optical diffraction patterns which differ depending on the reaction of the self-assembling monolayer with the analyte of interest. The light can be in the visible spectrum, and be either reflected from the film, or transmitted through it, and the analyte can be any compound reacting with the fluid on the self-assembling monolayer. The present invention also provides a flexible support for a self-assembling monolayer on gold or another suitable metal.

Abstract: This invention relates to remediation and decontamination of sediments and soils contaminated with organic and inorganic contaminants. Environmentally stable products are produced when certain additives such as calcium oxides are mixed with the contaminated materials. In the process, the mixture is heated to produce a molten reaction product with at least part of an excess amount of oxygen mixture or air continuously bubbled through the melt (16) in order to provide mixing and achieve high thermal destruction and removal efficiencies of the organic contaminants. The melt (16) is then quickly quenched in moist air, steam or water to avoid the transformation of the amorphous material into crystals. The inorganic contaminants such as chromium, nickel and zinc are incorporated and completely immobilized within the amorphous silicate network. The amorphous material can be pulverized to yield a powder which evinces cementitious properties by blending it with other materials to produce blend ed cements.

Abstract: Gyricon balls are provided with magnetic pole pieces that allows them to be located into two different positions by means of a further stationary magnetic pad. The magnetic pads are engulfed and sequestered from sight so they do not decrement the brightness of the display. The magnetic pole pieces are made by dispersing magnetic pigments into the polyethylene plastic. The addition of aluminum octoate to one hemisphere of the gyricon ball causes the pigmented plastic on that side of the ball to attempt to envelope the pigmented plastic on parts of the ball that does not have aluminum octoate added during the ball making process.
