Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de commander les différences de couple dans un moteur diesel à injection directe comprenant une unité de commande qui règle la quantité de carburant injectée dans les chambres de combustion du moteur en fonction des signaux transmis à l'unité de commande, représentatifs au moins de la position de la pédale d'accélérateur et de la vitesse du moteur.  Par exemple, lorsque la pédale de l'accélérateur est enfoncée de façon qu'elle demande un couple (tq) supérieur à une limite de couple supérieure prédéterminée (b) stockée dans l'unité de commande, le couple est d'abord commandé jusqu'à une limite de couple inférieure (c) stockée dans l'unité de commande et, à partir de là, graduellement jusqu'à la limite de couple supérieure (b), à partir de laquelle le couple est ensuite relâché jusqu'à atteindre le couple demandé par le conducteur au moyen de la pédale d'accélérateur.

Abstract: A plate heat exchanger (6) comprising plates (8) with port holes forming port channels (15, 16), where some passages are part of a set of tap-water passages (22) communicating with two of said port channels. A disc (12), with an opening (25), divides one (16) of the tap-water port channels into a first and a second part, such that the tap-water passages (22) are divided into at least two, serially connected, groups. An elongated temperature sensor (26) extends through the disc (12), substantially closing the opening (25). In this way, the temperature sensor may sense two different tap-water temperatures, i.e. the temperatures in the respective parts of the divided port channel, and actuate a valve, controlling the flow of a primary fluid, to an extent representative of the temperatures in both port channels.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à un procédé permettant de condenser des émanations ou des gaz provenant d'une cuve contenant un liquide. Le procédé consiste à amener le liquide dans un venturi afin de créer une basse pression au niveau de celui-ci. Des orifices sont ménagés dans le venturi aux endroits de basse pression et le gaz et/ou la vapeur est dirigé vers ces orifices de manière que le liquide entraîne le gaz et/ou la vapeur et forme un fluide, la vitesse est, de la sorte, réduite et la pression augmentée et ce, afin de condenser le gaz et/ou la vapeur. Le fluide est alors conduit depuis l'enceinte vers la partie inférieur de la cuve afin que la pression hydrostatique provoque une autre condensation. L'invention concerne également un appareil, un système et l'utilisation qui en est faite.

Abstract: A pipeline stage in a multi-bit/stage pipeline A/D converter is calibrated by switching a set of D/A converter unit-segments in the stage to predetermined states to produce a first digital signal. A second digital signal is produced by switching a predetermined unit-segment in the set to its complementary state and keeping the states of the other unit-segments in the set unchanged. The unit-segment is then associated with a calibration coefficient representing the deviation of the difference between the first and second digital signals from an expected difference between the first and second digital signals. This process is repeated for each unit-segment that is to be calibrated.

Abstract: A syringe system requires a decreased vertical travel for sealing during a lyophilization process and therefore provides for increased utilization of space in a lyophilization chamber. The syringe system is provided with a sterility maintenance sleeve including a stopper affixed thereto for sealingly engaging the syringe barrel to define a drug chamber. The sterility maintenance sleeve is provided with a venting passage to permit egress of vapor from the drug chamber during lyophilization. A plug cap cooperating with the sterility maintenance sleeve includes an occluding tip which is adapted to occupy the venting passage and seal the drug chamber after lyophilization. The plug cap is provided with a support structure in the form of flexible fins for supporting the plug cap in a venting position in which the occluding tip is removed from the venting passage to permit egress of drug solution vapor from the drug chamber during lyophilization. After lyophilization, the plug cap is moved into a sealing position in which the drug chamber is sealed against contamination.

Abstract: A fuel cell stack compression system (11) in which a spring assembly (22) and mechanical linkage assembly (23) are used in conjunction with tie rods (14,15) and tie bars (12) to apply a compressive load to a fuel cell stack (1). The linkage assembly (23) includes a lever (41) and three pins (42,43,44) to redirect the force or movement generated by the spring assembly (22) into a movement or force for the tie rods (14,15). The tie rods (14,15), in turn, connect to the tie bars (12) which span the top end plate (2) of the fuel cell stack and transfer the load to the stack. The linkage also includes a slotted bearing (47) which compensates for the circular arc formed by the lever and allows the spring assembly to be rigidly mounted under the bottom end plate (3). The spring assembly comprises multiple springs (32-34) arranged in parallel and designed to provide a non-linearly decreasing load as the stack compresses due to cell consolidation. This load profile reduces overall stack shrinkage while providing high pressure at the beginning of life to insure proper cell-to-cell contact.

Abstract: A dispensing system for controlled, especially remote controlled, dispensing of medicaments is disclosed. The system consists of a dispensing mechanism adapted to receive a sealed or resealable container of material to be dispensed and to validate that it is the correct material, and which includes a mechanical actuation mechanism which, when actuated, causes a measured dose of material to be dispensed from the material container. The mechanical actuation mechanism may be inhibited from operation by a locking mechanism which, when actuated, locks the device against the further dispensing of a dose of material until release in accordance with the desired dispensing programme, e.g. until a certain time period has elapsed, or until the programme permits dispensing to occur on some other basis. The dispensing system may be in two parts, a hand-held hand-actuated dispensing mechanism ( 1 ) and a base or docking station ( 2 ) into which the hand-held unit may be placed in order to release the locking mechanism. The docking or base station ( 2 ) may be triggered to cooperate with a remote overall control system, for example a remote computer, by placing the hand-held dispensing mechanism ( 1 ) in it.
