Abstract: A device for forming pouches, bags and the like, comprises a frame (2) with a rod (4) for supporting rolls (5) of tubular ribbon (6) suitable for the hygienic storage of medical instruments and with a casing (8) which is arranged at right angles to the direction of feed of the ribbon (6) and is adapted to accommodate a cutting means (9) and a heat-sealing means (10). The device also comprises a reciprocating means which acts both on the cutting means and on the heat-sealing means and is accommodated in the casing (8). The invention overcomes the drawbacks of conventional devices because a single and simple movement of the reciprocating means allows to form a pouch and at the same time separate it from the rest of the ribbon.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: It relates to a process for fabricating vault type slabs or polystyrene with prestressed concrete buttresses, which employing a modified sliding extruding or moulding machine for continuous production on a pre-stress track, fills in and vibrates the concrete on the polystyrene vaults placed on the track. Said vaults have the shape of the top slab buttress cut out in the vault itself, and simultaneously as it concretes it the machine leaves an alveolus in the centre of each buttress. The prefabricated slab thus obtained is fully self supporting with the same thickness as the traditional forging which it replaces. It comprises two concrete buttresses preferably with a double T shape, and by addition on site of a steel containing compression layer, the building floor joist itself is obtained. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A self-adjusting pliers is operable to grasp a workpiece between an upper jaw and a lower jaw. The pliers includes an upper arm having a first end and a second end, with the upper jaw at the first end. A jaw arm has a first end and a second end. The second end of the jaw arm is pivotably connected to the upper arm at a main pivot adjacent to the second end of the upper arm, so that the first end of the jaw arm is movable in a circular arc relative to the main pivot. The lower jaw is at the first end of the jaw arm in movable facing relation to the upper jaw so that the workpiece may be grasped between the upper jaw and the lower jaw. An engagement mechanism releasably engages the jaw arm to the upper arm at an engagement position responsive to a movement of the jaw arm relative to the upper arm and responsive to a size of the workpiece grasped between the upper jaw and the lower jaw, to thereby prevent rotation of the jaw arm relative to the upper arm.

Abstract: In order to prevent that a liquid reducing agent in a selective catalytic reduction system freezes, there are provided additional resistor heating elements on the pressure sensor diaphragm of the pressure sensor that is present in the reducing agent feed system. The same technique is applied in the production of the heating sensors as in the production of the sensor resistance network. The use of the sensor diaphragm surface for the electrical heating of the liquid reducing agent (e.g., aqueous urea solution) eliminates the need for additional installation space, sealed areas, and connectors for the electrical supply and triggering mechanism.

Abstract: A multi-core DSP device (100) includes a shared program memory (10) to eliminate redundancy and thereby reduce the size and power consumption of the DSP device (100). Because each of the program cores (11, 21) typically executes the same software program, memory requirements may be reduced by having multiple processor cores (11, 21) share only a single copy of the software. Accordingly, a program memory (10) couples to each of the processor cores (11, 21) by a corresponding instruction bus (P1, P2). Preferably the program memory (10) services two or more instruction requests in each clock cycle. Data is preferably stored in separate memory arrays (12, 13, 22, 23) local to the processor core subsystems (101, 102) and accessible by the processor cores (11, 21) via a dedicated data bus (D1, D2). In one specific implementation, the program memory (10) includes a wrapper that can perform one memory access in the first half of each clock cycle and a second memory access in the second half of each clock cycle. A designated set of instruction buses (P1) is allowed to arbitrate for only the first access, and the remaining instruction buses (P2) are allowed to arbitrate for only the second access. In this manner, a reduction in on-board memory requirements and associated power consumption may be advantageously reduced. <IMAGE>
