Abstract: The permanent way has an esp. asphalt or concrete sub-base (3). A track unit of sleepers (4) and rails (5,6) is anchored to the sub-base, and its height is corrected by the use if height compensation plates (14) between sleeper and rail. The height (H1) of the sub-base is measured at the support points for the sleepers, and the thickness (D) of the sleepers is measured in the area of the support points (11) for the rails. The results are used to calculate the required height compensation, and the compensation plates are fitted while the track unit is put in place. The height (H2) of the rails is also measured and taken into consideration for the calculations.

Abstract: An inkjet printer uses interlaced printing to form raster lines at intervals in the sub-scanning direction. The paper is transported by feed rollers (25a,25b) on the upstream side relative to the sub-scanning, and ejection rollers (27a,27b) on the downstream side. After the trailing edge of the paper clears the feed rollers, it is printed while being moved in the sub-scan direction by just the ejection rollers. The feed used for the interlaced printing is set at an amount that produces an area (T) between a high-precision area (A) of raster lines formed using the feed rollers to effect sub-scanning, and a low-precision area (L) in which the raster lines are formed using just the ejection rollers to effect sub-scanning. The area thus includes raster lines from both of the other areas. Performing sub-scanning at that feed amount makes the difference in quality between the high-precision area and the low-precision area less noticeable, making it possible to increase the size of the printable area.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: On a base (12) are fixed a pair of supporting members (6, 8). A guide rail (3) is supported by the pair of supporting members. A measurement block (2) is guided by the guide rail in a sliding manner. On the base is fixed a reference block (10) abutted by the measurement block when it has reached one end of the guide rail. A moving-distance measuring device is provided which uses as a zero point a position where the measurement block abuts against the reference block, to measure a distance over which the measurement block has moved with respect to the reference block. The moving-distance measuring device has, on the base, a pair of pulleys (5, 7) arranged with a gap therebetween in a direction parallel to the guide rail, a belt (4) engaged over the pair of pulleys and having its part linked with the measurement block, and a rotary encoder (11) linked to a rotary shaft of one of the paired pulleys. By sandwiching predetermined portions of a book block and a book cover between the reference block and the measurement block, the size can be measured and thus obtained measurement values are input from the measuring device to a controller device. The controller device, based on these measurement values, controls the carrier mechanism and the processing units of the book binding system.

Abstract: The invention concerns an optical fibre transmission system comprising the fibre line and co-propagating pumping means (5) for an amplification distributed by stimulated Raman scattering in the fibre line, wherein the fibre line has several sections (7, 8) separated by isolators (11). The length of each of the sections, the power of the pump and the type of fibre are selected so as to avoid oscillations caused by Raman gain and Rayleigh scattering. The isolators enable to inject a more powerful pump, while preventing the Raman gain in the fibre from causing oscillations resulting from Rayleigh scattering.

Abstract: An improved ePTFE vascular graft suitable for interposition or bypass applications exhibits an improved <i>in vivo</i> healing response characterized by transmural capillary ingrowth which supports complete endothelialization and smooth muscle cell growth along the entire luminal surface of the graft. The inventive improved ePTFE vascular grafts have average internodal distances in the range of about 50  mu m to about 70  mu m with a microstructure characterized by elongated columnar nodes which form substantially continuous fibrillated internodal spaces between the luminal and abluminal surface of the graft. The greater internodal distances than conventional ePTFE vascular grafts when combined with the columnar node structure afford an improved healing response <i>in vivo</i>, while maintaining at acceptable levels other physical properties of the graft, e.g., wall thickness, luminal diameter, longitudinal tensile strength, radial tensile strength, suture retention strength, etc., as conventional monolithic ePTFE grafts without a reinforcing layer which would compromise the healing response.

Abstract: An improved touchscreen utilizing two sets of electrodes that are fabricated in a single plane is provided. The individual electrodes of each set of electrodes are formed from a continuous length of a conductive material. Suitable electrode materials include fine wire and deposited conductive coatings. The overall electrode pattern is such that there is no overlap of electrodes, thus eliminating the need for insulating layers and/or coatings between electrodes. Although a variety of electrode patterns can be used, preferably the pattern is comprised of a plurality of approximately triangularly shaped electrodes, the pattern such that the base of one triangularly shaped electrode is adjacent to the apex of the next triangularly shaped electrode. The preferred triangular shape of an individual electrode can be achieved by forming a continuous loop of the electrode material into the desired shape or by forming a series of teeth of varying height, the envelope of the teeth approximating the desired triangular shape. A touchscreen sensor employing the disclosed sensing electrodes can use any of a variety of readout systems. For example, a frequency-domain readout approach can be used in which the operating frequency is fixed. In this approach a touch capacitance is detected by observing an impedance change at the operating frequency, typically by measuring a corresponding current change. Alternately changes in a RC decay time τ can be measured, for example by observing frequency shifts in a relaxation oscillator. This technique is typically referred to as a time-domain approach. In a third alternate approach, capacitance changes are detected via frequency shifts of LC oscillators. Touch position information is determined from the capacitance changes of the electrodes using any number of different techniques. Preferably prior to calculating position, a subset of electrodes localized around the touch position is determined. Electrode localization reduces the effects of background signals while increasing the efficiency of the position determining algorithm. Once a set of localized electrodes has been determined the touch coordinates are calculated, one coordinate from the distribution of the touch signal within each set of electrodes and the other coordinate from the distribution of the touch signal between the two sets of electrodes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système de récolte, le procédé consistant à couper et à battre les cultures, à séparer la paille (pédoncules de plantes) du mélange grain-paille (un mélange de grains, de paille, de graines de mauvaise herbe et d'autres matières organiques), et à replacer la paille dans le champ. Ces opérations sont, de préférence, réalisées dans une unité de récolte du type tracté possédant un réservoir de stockage du mélange grain-paille. Le grain-paille rassemblé est acheminé à un moulin de nettoyage fixe, située à un autre emplacement, au moyen d'un véhicule approprié, tel qu'un camion. Le stockage du grain-paille avant le nettoyage est évité grâce au moulin de nettoyage et, de préférence, à l'unité de récolte et au véhicule, ce qui évite les problèmes causés par le pauvre débit du grain-paille. L'invention concerne également divers détails d'équipement.

Abstract: An article of clothing including a piezoelectric transducer and an electrical component restrains movement of a first body portion relative to a second body portion. The article of clothing can be a sports bra that controls the wearer's breast movement relative to the wearer's torso. As the breast moves, the piezoelectric transducer deforms and induces a voltage that is passed to the electrical component. The electrical component provides either a resistance or a control signal to the transducer. The transducer stiffens in response to the electrical component and reduces the movement of the breast by placing an external force on the breast.

The preferred material is a wet fleece where polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers as binding agents were mixed with the coconut fibers during the manufacturing process; these PVA fibers are melted when the wet fleece is dried, shrinking primarily onto bonding spots where coconut fibers intersect.
