Abstract: A loudspeaker and components for use in the construction thereof is provided. In one aspect, the present invention relates generally to a new type of loudspeaker comprising a driver having a sound radiating element, at least two motor elements which, in operation, cooperate to move the sound radiating element in response to an applied signal, and mounting elements coupled to the sound radiating element and motor elements, where the first motor element is mechanically coupled to the sound radiating element, and where the driver comprises at least two mechanical masses which, in operation, move independently in response to the applied signal. The mechanical masses are mechanically coupled such that in operation, the driver has at least fourth order frequency characteristics. This facilitates, for example, the construction of a fourth order loudspeaker system that performs like a vented enclosure system without employing a vent. Associated loudspeaker components and design processes employable in other loudspeaker constructions are also disclosed.

Abstract: An extended nip press machine, similar to those used in the paper
industry, for use in the leather industry to remove water from hides after the
tanning process. The leather press consists of a shoe (260) whose surface
substantially matches the radius of an opposing pressure roll (200). Moving across
the shoe is an endless belt (250), which is lubricated by a thin film of oil. Between
the belt and corresponding pressure roll pass two endless felt belts (220,230), which are
the means of conveying the leather hides. The nip formed by the shoe press is
dramatically longer than a conventional press nip, thereby increasing the
dewatering efficiency of the leather press.

Abstract: Dans un système de communication mobile présentant des canaux de largeurs de bande différentes, une largeur de bande de canal peut être sélectionnée de manière dynamique afin de transmettre des données sur une liaison entre un réseau d'accès radio et une station mobile. Selon cette invention, une largeur de bande de canal et une cible pour un taux d'erreur de données pour la transmission sont sélectionnées (303) sur la base d'un besoin de transmission défini, c'est-à-dire une caractéristique définie (301) des données à transmettre, et d'une charge définie (302) de ressources de communication, c'est-à-dire une puissance de canal et/ou une puissance totale de l'onde porteuse utilisée dans une cellule. Etant donné qu'il est possible de sélectionner de manière dynamique un taux d'erreur de données, une liaison peut continuer à utiliser une certaine largeur de bande de canal en augmentant le taux d'erreur de données et par conséquent en diminuant la puissance de canal, même si un niveau de seuil de charge est atteint à une première instance pour la puissance de canal ou la puissance totale utilisée dans la cellule. La capacité du système peut ainsi être augmentée, tout en augmentant le débit sur la liaison.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de comptage d'aiguilles (10) faisant appel à une matière cohésive (32) disposée dans un ou plusieurs évidements (30), de préférence en forme de V. La matière cohésive (32) présente une adhérence forte et instantanée au contact, mais présente également une très faible résistance à la pénétration par l'aiguille (c'est-à-dire qu'il est facile d'insérer une aiguille (40) dans cette matière cohésive (32) mais difficile d'en retirer l'aiguille (40)). Le dispositif (10) comprend une base (12) et un couvercle (14), et s'ouvre et se ferme comme un livre. En position de fermeture, ce dispositif (10) reste généralement fermé à moins qu'il ne soit ouvert intentionnellement. Une fine couche de matière adhésive ou magnétique (26) peut être appliquée sur l'intérieur (28) du couvercle (14) et permet de retenir les lames chirurgicales usagées, une pièce de mousse élastique (29, 29a) pouvant également être utilisée en vue du 'rangement' temporaire d'une aiguille de suture. Les côtés de chaque évidement (30) sont garnis longitudinalement d'une structure (36) servant à empêcher un instrument chirurgical déposé par inadvertance sur le dispositif de venir au contact de la matière cohésive (32). Des indicateurs numériques (38) permettent un contrôle rapide et facilitent le comptage. Une bande adhésive double face (17) recouverte d'une pellicule détachable de protection (19) peut être disposée sur la surface extérieure (21) du couvercle (14) et/ou de la base (12) et permet de coller le dispositif (10) sur des surfaces de travail.
