Abstract: A selectively actuatable lighter device is disclosed which includes a body defining reservoir for containing a combustible gaseous medium such as butane, and having a valve arranged to be selectively actuated between a normally closed position and an open position which permits the exit of the gaseous medium. Such lighter can selectively produce sparks at a location proximate to the gaseous medium exit to ignite the gaseous medium. Such lighter device embodies a resiliently releasable latch means which normally prevents actuation of a valve actuator to the open position thereby preventing actuation of the valve. The latch means includes a latch which is selectively movable to a position out of interference with the valve actuator, so that the gaseous medium may be released and ignited by the sparks. The latch means is resiliently structured and mounted such that once the valve actuator is depressed and released, the latch returns to its closed or latched position to prevent actuation of the valve to the open position. To "re-use" the lighter, the latch must again be moved to an unlatched position so that the valve actuator can be opened for subsequent ignition of the gaseous medium.

Abstract: To produce slubbing material from a fibre feed, using a card (16) and the like, during the slubbing development the separate slubbings (42, 44, 46, 48) are measured continuously for each running metres. On a deviation of the weight from a nominal value, the cross section of the air passage (50) is varied as a weight correction, leading the air out of the shafts (24, 26, 28, 30) at the flocking stage, at the shaft corresponding to a weight shift in the part-slubbing. Also claimed is an assembly with an air passage (50) in each flocking shaft (24, 26, 28, 30) which is increased or decreased steplessly according to the measured weight of the part-slubbings (42, 44, 46, 48) produced from the flockings (34, 36, 38, 40) in the shafts. Pref. each of the shafts (24, 26, 28, 30) is connected to a monitor (56, 58, 60, 62) located after the card (16), to measure the slubbing weight per running metre. A setting unit (54) for a cover (52) adjusts the working in each shaft according to the monitored readings. The cover (52) has a linear movement, sliding parallel to the sieve forming the air passage. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In an installation for controlling the state of cells of a conveyor belt, the counter (1) is incremented each time a cell passes in front of a cell passage detector (4) and the number is displayed on the light panel (12); the corresponding cell will be in front of the check point (11) in order to facilitate its identification. After each round turn of the conveyor, the counter is reset by the signal of the reflector (7) in the detector (6). Upon detection of a fonction fault in one cell by the corresponding detectors (5), the signal is provided to the displacement registers (2) which delay it so as to make it coincide at the check point (11), with its number in the counter; this number is then sent by means of the communication module (8) to a data center. The discriminators (3) avoid passing signals relative to faults which are not attributable to faults of cell mechanisms. The invention applies particularly to the control of the transportation of newspapers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Colle hydrophile autocollante composite. Cette colle est perméable à la vapeur d'eau et perd de son pouvoir adhésif au contact de l'eau liquide. En outre, elle est utilisable notamment dans le but de fixer provisoirement à la peau un dispositif à usage médical. Ladite colle comporte un mélange gélifié (a) d'un polymère non hydrosoluble gonflant au contact de l'eau et étant soluble dans les solvants polaires miscibles à l'eau ayant des points d'ébullition sous pression barométrique supérieurs à 100 °C, ainsi que dans les mélanges de ces solvants et de quantités minoritaires d'eau; (b) d'un polymère hydrophile non hydrosoluble gonflant au contact de l'eau et n'étant pas soluble dans les solvants polaires miscibles à l'eau ayant des points d'ébullition sous pression barométrique supérieurs à 100 °C; et (c) d'un solvant polaire inoffensif miscible à l'eau, dont le point d'ébullition sous pression barométrique est supérieur à 100 °C, ce solvant étant éventuellement mélangé à une quantité minoritaire d'eau. L'une des caractéristiques de cette colle hydrophile autocollante composite est que les polymères (a) et (b) sont remplacés par un copolymère non réticulé de monomères hydrophile et hydrophobe, qui n'est que partiellement soluble dans le constituant (c), mais qui gonfle au contact de celui-ci. On a également prévu un procédé de préparation de ladite colle hydrophile autocollante composite, consistant à soumettre à une agitation intense le polymère pulvérulent sec (a), à savoir le polymère non hydrosoluble gonflant au contact de l'eau et étant soluble dans les solvants polaires miscibles à l'eau ayant des points d'ébullition sous pression barométrique supérieurs à 100 °C, ainsi que dans les mélanges de ces solvants et de quantités minoritaires d'eau, le polymère (b), à savoir le polymère hydrophile non hydrosoluble gonflant au contact de l'eau et n'étant pas soluble dans les solvants polaires miscibles à l'eau ayant des points d'ébullition sous pression barométrique supérieurs à 100 °C, et le constituant (c), à savoir le solvant polaire inoffensif miscible à l'eau, dont le point d'ébullition sous pression barométrique est supérieur à 100 °C, ce solvant étant éventuellement mélangé à une quantité minoritaire d'eau; puis à étaler sur une plaque la pâte ainsi obtenue, et à la laisser durcir jusqu'à obtention d'une couche gélifiée. Le procédé de mise en oeuvre de ladite colle hydrophile autocollante composite consiste avantageusement à mélanger les constituants à une température égale ou inférieure à 15 °C, puis à étaler la masse obtenue sur la surface d'un dispositif à usage médical que l'on souhaite coller à la peau, et à durcir la couche étalée à une température comprise entre 15 et 100 °C environ, et ce soit par stockage prolongé, soit par chauffage.
