Abstract: An ultrasonic cleaning method for cleaning the film, scale and sludge from internal surfaces of tubes (16), tubesheets (18), tube support plates (20) and channel heads (22) of steam generators (10) previously exposed to water or steam at temperatures of more than 200  DEG C introduces an ultrasonic transducer (52) or transducer array into the steam generator and submerges the ultrasonic transducer (5) and the surface to be cleaned in water or aqueous solution. Ultrasonic energy is introduced into the water at a power level of 20 watts/gallon or more and at frequencies of from 10 to 200 KHz. Large amounts of ultrasonic energy can be introduced into the water so that the energy can efficiently penetrate into the interior rows of tubes and other internal structures.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des dispositifs implantables permettant d'administrer un médicament au niveau d'une zone cible. Généralement, ces dispositifs comprennent une partie destinée à traverser le tissu au voisinage de cette zone cible ainsi qu'une section pourvue d'une cavité interne renfermant le médicament en question. Celui-ci peut être intégré à un agent de libération régulée, tel que des microsphères polymériques médicamenteuses permettant de libérer un médicament de façon régulière ou intermittente. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, ladite section, au lieu de définir une cavité interne, peut être elle-même constituée d'une matière comprenant cet agent de libération régulée. Ces dispositifs peuvent servir à administrer des cytokines, par exemple, au niveau d'une zone enflammée.

Abstract: Dans un codeur audio sinusoïdal, il est bien connu que des échelles de temps différentes sont utilisées pour analyser les différentes parties du spectre de fréquences. Avec les codeurs de l'art antérieur, le filtrage des sous-bandes est destiné à séparer le signal d'entrée en un certain nombre de sous-bandes. En séparant le signal d'entrée en sous-bandes, il peut arriver qu'une composante de signal à la limite des deux sous-bandes résulte en une représentation des deux signaux de sous-bandes. Cette double représentation des composantes de signal peut provoquer de nombreux problèmes lors du codage de ces composantes. Dans la présente invention, on propose d'utiliser des moyens (46, 48, 58, 68; 88, 92, 96) destinés à empêcher que les composantes de signal aient plusieurs représentations.

Abstract: A gas sensor includes a silicon substrate provided with a recess, an insulating layer, a first and a second conductive patterned layers and a detecting portion for sensing a gas which passes therethrough.  In the gas sensor, the insulating layer is formed on a top portion of the silicon substrate which does not form the recess.

Abstract: Hydrogen-rich reformed gas is produced by reaction
including partial oxidation of feed gas in a reforming
reaction section ( 6 ). In this case, for the purpose of
reducing temperature variations in the reforming reaction
section (6), improving the thermal efficiency thereof and
providing a reformer ( A ) with a simple and compact
construction, the reformer ( A ) is formed in a double-wall
structure consisting of a housing ( 1 ) and partitions  (2), (2) 
inside of the housing ( 1 ), the reforming reaction section  (6) 
is contained between the partitions ( 2 ), ( 2 ), and a feed gas
passage  (3)  is provided by the space between the housing ( 1 )
and the partition ( 2 ). In this manner, the feed gas passage
( 3 ) is provided in the surrounding area of the reforming
reaction section  (6).  The reforming reaction section  (6)  is
thermally insulated by the feed gas passage ( 3 ) so that
temperature variations in the reforming reaction section ( 6 )
can be reduced. The feed gas in the feed gas passage ( 3 ) is
preheated by heat of reaction in the reforming reaction
section ( 6 ) so that the self-recovery of heat can improve
thermal efficiency of the reformer ( A ). In addition, a
preheater for preheating the feed gas can be formed
integrally between the feed gas passage (3) and the reforming
reaction section  (6)  thereby compacting the construction of
the reformer.

Patent EP-1234485-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GUNDRY KENNETH J
IPC: G10L19/008
Filed: 2000-11-29
Abstract: A multidirectional audio decoder using an "adaptive" audio matrix derives at least one of a plurality of output audio signals from two or more directionally-encoded audio input signal streams (S 1 (alpha), S 2 (alpha), . . . SN(alpha), wherein alpha is the encoded angle of a source audio signal. Each output signal is associated with a principal direction beta. In order to generate each output signal, a pair of intermediate signals ("antidominant" signals) are generated, constituting the antidominant signal for each of the two adjacent principal output directions of the decoder. The antidominant signal for any arbitrary principal (or "dominant") direction is the combination of input signals having coefficients such that the combination goes to zero for that dominant direction. Amplitude control is applied to the two antidominant signals to deliver a pair of signals having substantially equal magnitudes that are additively or subtractively combined to provide the output audio signal associated with a principal direction. The pair of signals that are combined include passive matrix components. In an alternative embodiment, passive matrix components for the output signal are derived instead by applying the input audio signals to a passive matrix and by combining the passive matrix components with pairs of amplitude controlled versions of the antidominant signals that do not include passive matrix components. For sources from one direction at a time, there is little or no unwanted crosstalk into outputs that should be silent (ie., there is substantially no signal in outputs other than the two representing directions adjacent to the desired direction, except when the desired direction happens to correspond to that of an output, in which case there is a signal in substantially only that output).

Abstract: A set of properties for a managed object representing a resource within
a manageability model are organized into two broad groups. The first group
categorizes a particular property in management terms according to a set of
property category qualifiers. The property categories generally describe how
the specific property is used by a management application or tool in the
framework. The second group captures details about characteristics that apply
to a particular category. These characteristics are defined by a set of
category characteristic qualifiers, several of which include may be associated
with a phase within a life cycle of the resource being modeled. Thus, in an
illustrative embodiment, the first group includes the following categories:
identification, configuration settings, resource consumption, measurement,
status, and work or activity completed. The second group includes
characteristic qualifiers such as value, changeability, latency, validity,
location, life span, scope, and the like.

Filed: 2001-02-19
Abstract: An attachment means ( 4 ) in the form of a hollow cylindrical socket ( 10 ) integral with a tangentially intersecting housing ( 30 ) in which a latch pin ( 8 ) is longitudinally slidable. The latch pin ( 8 ) has a cylindrical head ( 8 a) of relatively large diameter but relatively short length, and a cylindrical shaft ( 8 b) that is relatively long but of relatively small diameter. The axis of the latch housing is offset outwardly of an imaginary line tangentially intersecting the bore of the socket by more than half the diameter of the latch pin shaft ( 8 b) but less than half the diameter of the latch pin head ( 8 b). The latch pin ( 8 ) is biased by a spring ( 7 ) such that the latch pin head ( 8 a) normally lies partly within the bore of the socket ( 10 ) to engage a notch ( 12 ) near the end of a rod ( 5 ) or other plug-like member attached to the socket ( 10 ) and thereby positively retain this rod ( 5 ). Manually depressing the latch pin ( 8 ) against the force of the spring ( 7 ) pushes the latch pin head ( 8 a) out of the bore of the socket ( 10 ) which instantly releases the rod ( 5 ) since the latch pin shaft ( 8 b) always lies completely outside the bore of the socket ( 10 ). The attachment assembly ( 4+5 ) allows easy assembly of two members, and their quick release when required. The attachment means is applicable to attachment of parts and accessories to vehicles, e.g. mudguards ( 14 ) and side-skirts ( 50, 51 ).
