Abstract: Process in which a mixture of steam and polluted air is first channelled into an ascending flow (19) and that then the mixture flows in a descending flow (23) into an enclosure (34) maintained under partial vacuum. An aqueous alkaline solution is sprayed in a parallel flow into the said descending flow and the decontaminated noncondensed gases are discharged from the enclosure by a forced and adjustable stream which creates and maintains a partial vacuum inside the said enclosure. The present invention also describes a device for the implementation of the said process. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure for controlling an elevator group consisting of several elevators and related call devices. A control system for controlling the elevators controls each elevator in a manner determined by the calls entered and the existing control instructions. According to the invention, when the control system has to decide between two or more control alternatives, a systematic decision analysis is performed by studying the effects resulting from each alternative decision, said effects being estimated by simulating by a Monte-Carlo type method the future behaviour of the elevator system in the case of each alternative decision. To carry out the simulation, realizations are generated at random for the unknown quantities associated with the current state of the elevator system and for new external future events, and a control decision is made on the basis of the results of the decision analysis. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a turning or turn-and-tilt window 1, on the fixed frame 2 of which are arranged projecting turning or turn-and-tilt bearings for the wing 3. The wing 3 receives the bearings 4, 5 and covers them in recesses 9, 10 of its overlap 15 resting at least partially on the fixed frame 2. However, in the known embodiments, when the recesses 9, 10 located in the overlap 15 of the window wing 3 are being worked out, there is still always the difficulty that these recesses are of triangular cross-section and therefore notch effects occur, these causing the remaining walls to break out, with the result that the entire window wing then becomes valueless and useless. In order to avoid this, the limiting faces 16, 17, extending approximately parallel to the upper and lateral end edges 13, 14 of the overlap 15, of the recesses 9, 10 run arcuately (R). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to an anchoring system and method for installing exterior materials to a building structure particularly suited for when the exterior materials are to be placed at a distance from the building structure. The anchoring system utilizes a separator rod having two ends wherein one end is secured within a nut joint embedded in the exterior material and the other end is attached to an anchoring device anchored to the building structure. The anchoring device has a speed nut which accepts the other end of the separator rod, allowing the rod to advance into the anchoring device but which inhibits movement of the separator rod out of and away from the anchoring device in a rachet fashion.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de véhiculer des objets sur des palettes de transport le long d'un circuit en modifiant l'espacement (e, E) entre les objets pour traverser au moins un poste de travail (2, 3). Le changement d'espacement est obtenu par écartement longitudinal des palettes (4) pour passer d'un premier intervalle, qui peut être nul, à un deuxième intervalle (X) qui peut être ajusté. A cet effet, il est prévu un poste (7) de transfert latéral de groupes de palettes (29, 39, 31, 32) entre deux tronçons de voie parallèles (5, 6). Les groupes sont déplacés transversalement pas à pas au moyen d'un poussoir (17), puis les palettes d'un groupe (30) sont écartées par des éléments de prise (22, 23) et entraînées ensemble par un mécanisme à peigne (26). Application aux installations de fabrication, d'assemblage ou de traitement utilisant le transport de palettes, en particulier pour la fabrication de récipients moulés par soufflage à partir de préformes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil détecteur de rupture de feuille (10) conçu pour détecter la rupture d'une feuille dans la section sécheur (12) d'une machine à fabriquer le papier. L'appareil (10) comporte un transmetteur à vide (14) qui est sensible au niveau de vide dans un tambour à vide (16) du sécheur (12). Le transmetteur (14) détecte seulement une variation brusque du niveau de vide dans le tambour à vide (16) provoquée par la rupture de la feuille, plutôt qu'une variation relativement graduelle du niveau de vide provoquée par l'action d'un opérateur. Un dispositif de guidage est relié au transmetteur (14) et en réponse à celui-ci, il redirige la feuille vers une chute de réception (22) située en amont du transmetteur (14), lorsque celui-ci détecte la variation brusque du niveau de vide. L'appareil est conçu de façon à empêcher un enroulement excessif de la feuille déchirée (W) autour du sécheur (24) de la section de séchage (12).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un stimulateur cardiaque implantable présentant des amplitudes d'impulsion stimulantes programmables sélectionnables au moyen d'une unité de programmation externe. Ledit stimulateur cardiaque est doté d'un circuit pour la pompe à charge permettant de produire une tension d'impulsion stimulante sur un condensateur de sortie. Le condensateur de sortie est chargé à un niveau sélectionné identifié par une valeur d'amplitude à plusieurs bits communiquée au dispositif implanté depuis le programmateur externe. Ledit stimulateur cardiaque est également doté d'un circuit conçu pour contrôler le niveau de déplétion de sa pile et pour générer un signal indicateur lorsque le niveau de déplétion de la pile dépasse un niveau prédéterminé. Un circuit comparateur activé sélectivement conçu pour réguler la charge du condensateur de sortie est associé au circuit de la pompe à charge. Avant la génération du signal indicateur, le circuit de la pompe à charge reste désactivé pour certaines amplitudes de sortie programmées, le niveau de charge du condensateur de sortie étant proportionnel à la tension de la pile. Après l'émission du signal indicateur, le circuit comparateur est activé de manière à réguler la charge du condensateur de sortie. Lorsque le circuit comparateur est activé pour charger le condensateur, la tension résultante produite sur le condensateur est proportionnelle à une tension de référence constante prédéterminée. La longénité du dispositif est optimisée par non activation du circuit comparateur au cours des phases initiales de déplétion de la pile, lorsque la tension de sortie de cette dernière est relativement stable.
