Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de détection d'une voie d'acheminement de données, via une liaison satellite, vers une plate-forme mobile à partir d'un segment terrestre d'un réseau de communications. La plate-forme mobile et le segment terrestre communiquent grâce à un transpondeur de satellite. Un chaîne d'équipement de segment terrestre est attribuée à chaque transpondeur. Une signature de voie unique est attribuée à chaque chaîne. Le segment terrestre réalise une diffusion multiple, via les chaînes, de messages contenant la signature de voie correspondant aux chaînes. La plate-forme émet, vers le segment terrestre, des signatures de voies reçues par la plate-forme au moyen des messages. Le segment terrestre conserve une information de commande de détection de voie. On élimine ainsi un mauvais acheminement en raison de différences dans l'identification de voie par transpondeur.

Inventor: COKER TERRENCE EDWARD
IPC: F04C29/02
Filed: 2002-12-06
Abstract: In a lubricant-cooled gas compressor ( 10 ) the temperature of separated lubricant returned to the air-side ( 11 ) is monitored by a thermostatically controlled restrictor valve ( 22 ) which minimises the flow of returned lubricant when temperature is low as on start up or when running on reduced load but increases the flow as the lubricant temperature increases. This will minimise he condensation of water from indrawn air when the temperature of the compressed air is too low to retain the water as vapour, so that the returned lubricant is contaminated with water which will damage the moving components of the air-end.

Abstract: A system for selectively delivering different beverages having
different foam levels by injection of a fluid under pressure into a
capsule that contains a beverage-forming substance. The capsules include
a chamber (22) containing the substance and a beverage dispensing
structure (23) adapted to retain a certain extraction pressure in the
chamber before allowing the beverage to flow out of the capsule. The system
is characterized in that first and second capsules are provided for selective
use in the system, with the first capsule having a first beverage dispensing
structure configured and positioned therein to retain a first extraction
pressure in the capsule, prior to delivery of the beverage, and the second
capsule having a second beverage dispensing structure configured and
positioned therein to retain a second extraction pressure in the
capsule, prior to delivery of the beverage. The first extraction
pressure is higher than the second extraction pressure so that a greater
amount of foam is created upon delivery of the beverage from the first
capsule as compared to that created by the second capsule. This allows a
user of the system to select a cartridge that produces a beverage with
the desired foam content.
