Patent FR-2681332-A1 (FR)
Inventor: GEORGES DERVIEUX
IPC: C23C8/22
Filed: 1991-09-13
Abstract: The carburising process according to the invention consists in heating the articles to be treated to a temperature of between 800 DEG C and 1100 DEG C, preferably above 900 DEG C, in an oxygen-free gaseous atmosphere maintained by pumping at a pressure of between 1 and 5 mbar and in performing a plurality of successive carbon-enrichment stages (C1, C2), each obtained by an injection for a limited period of a treatment gas containing one or a number of pure hydrocarbons, each enrichment stage (C1, C2) having a duration shorter than the time for the change of austenite into a saturation stage, these enrichment stages being separated by vacuum diffusion stages (D1, D2) of longer duration making it possible to adjust the surface carbon content. The invention makes it possible to simplify the mechanism of carbon transfer and to avoid the detrimental effects of overcarburising.

Patent FR-2711174-A1 (FR)
Title: Electrical device for remotely opening and closing so-called "French style" shutters
Inventor: GUY ARROYO
IPC: E05F15/12
Filed: 1993-10-14
Abstract: Electrical device for remotely opening and closing either solid or louvred (slatted) so-called "French style" shutters. The invention relates to a low-voltage electrical mechanism which can be used to open and close outside shutters, to lock/unlock an espagnolette bolt having a round rod and to immobilise the shutter in the desired position. A motor (39) with reduction gear and drive disengageable by a knurled knob (28), these being housed in a reversible housing mounted on a hinged mechanism plate (43), transmits a rotational movement to an adjustable angled arm (51), the other end of which includes a screw (56) which travels in a guide (58) with an angled piece (elbow) (59) fastened to the shutter (71) which it accompanies. At the end of the movement, the fitted end of the arm (66) causes the espagnolette bolt (68) to rotate, while pushing a flat iron with adjustable bearing element (60) acting as the latch bolt. A helical spring (not shown) brings the espagnolette bolt back into the initial position when opening is caused. According to the invention, the device is particularly intended for opening and closing so-called "French style" shutters by means of electrical control.

Title: Numerical phase locked loop for nuclear oscillators oscillation frequency automatic control in parasitic rays and NMR tests
Inventor: MAX LAZZARONI
IPC: G01R33/24
Filed: 1993-12-01
Abstract: The oscillator (100) is optimised by measuring the ambient magnetic field intensity, using a NMR probe (2). Its output signal is applied to a phase locked loop (4), generating numerically a first sinusoidal sample and a second sample to excite the probe, after treatment (48, 5). At least one amplitude (A, B) or phase (p) sample generated by the loop is modified. The first signal (A) amplitude may be modified or cancelled out, modifying the band pass of the oscillator, or de-activating the phase locked loop. Alternatively, the second signal amplitude or phase may be modified, altering the probe excitation, or its phase. Samples generated by the loop may be stored in first (45) and second (47) memories, added to predetermined parameters, to operate on addresses, controlled by microprocessor (20).
