Granted: 2004-05-06
Abstract: A horn loudspeaker comprises: a horn (22) having a throat (26) and a mouth (30); a primary electro-acoustic driver (24) mounted at or adjacent the throat of the horn and directed generally along the horn; and at least one secondary electro-acoustic driver (32T, 32B, 32L, 32R) mounted part-way along the horn and directed generally across the horn. The secondary driver(s) can be used to change the local impedance conditions in the horn and therefore to change the polar response of the horn loudspeaker. At least one filter (12A, 12E) is provided for filtering an input signal (34) for the primary driver to produce a filtered signal for the or each secondary driver. Such a filter may be chosen or designed so as to optimise some aspect of the polar response of the horn loudspeaker, for example to increase directivity, or flatten the polar response within a specified included radiation angle, or to increase omnidirectionality. <IMAGE>

Granted: 2005-04-27
Abstract: The invention relates to an application and a method for checking documents. Hitherto, documents with optical diffraction security layers, specially holograms, were checked by costly optical monitoring technology. The entire monitoring process was so time-consuming that the monitoring process could not be applied to fast operating processing machines. Rapid monitoring (as an authentication characteristic) constitutes a further security step in evaluating effective optical diffraction security layers. The effective optical diffraction layer has a discontinuous metallizing layer and/or partially metal layers and/or areas of metal layers on various planes. Several methods of measurement exist to detect electrical conductivity. In practice, the contactless capacitive method of measurement has proven to be more practical.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un mécanisme flexible, fondé sur la politique, permettant la gestion, la surveillance du trafic à l'intérieur d'un réseau ainsi que l'établissement des priorités dans ce trafic et l'attribution de la largeur de bande, afin de réaliser une véritable qualité de service (QS). L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de gérer l'attribution d'une largeur de bande dans un réseau. Un dispositif (100) d'acheminement de paquets reçoit une information portant sur un ensemble de groupes de trafic, par exemple une adresse MAC, ou l'indicateur de priorité IEEE 802.1p ou l'étiquette de trame 802.1Q, si la politique de QS est fondée sur des applications de postes individuels; ou un accès physique si la politique de QS est fondée uniquement sur la topologie. Le dispositif d'acheminement de paquets reçoit en outre une information définissant une politique (210) de QS pour les groupes de trafic. La réception (220) d'un paquet par le dispositif d'acheminement est suivie par l'identification (230) d'un groupe de trafic. Plutôt que de faire appel à un protocole de signalisation de bout en bout pour l'ordonnancement, la transmission du paquet est ordonnancée (260) en fonction de la politique de QS pour le groupe de trafic identifié.

Abstract: A process for separation of an oil-containing aqueous emulsion includes mixing the oil-containing aqueous emulsion with carbon-dioxide and subjecting the emulsion and carbon dioxide for a specified time within an autoclave to an elevated pressure and an elevated temperature. A rising stream of bubbles is formed within the autoclave by suddenly relieving the pressure within the autoclave with the rising stream of bubbles serving to separate the oil-containing aqueous emulsion into an oil-rich phase and an oil-depleted emulsion. The oil depleted emulsion is transferred to a segrating tank. At least a fraction of the oil-depleted emulsion within the segregated tank is subjected to ultrafiltration to separate the fraction into a permeate and a retentate.

Abstract: A low-NOx burner for liquid and gaseous fuels, of the type in which the combustion air is split into two streams. The primary air stream, fed through a plurality of windows (12), crosses at the outlet a series of oriented blades (15) which impart vorticity to it. The secondary air stream, fed through a series of windows (19), crosses a series of oriented blades (22) axially movable for varying the degree with respect to the inlet windows (19) . The windows (12, 19) for the primary and secondary air inlet have movable dampers (13, 20) for continuously adjusting the inlet section. This particular structure of the burner, particularly suitable for low/medium capacity installations, allows for a stage combustion typical of more complex geometry burners to be carried out, with a cost saving with equal capacity and pollutant emissions. <IMAGE>
