Abstract: Dans des souliers sport servant à toutes les disciplines sportives et tous autres usages générales; on sait que le plus important pour le pied est la semelle, ensuite vient le confort au tour du pied. Dans la présente invention ces deux principaux buts sont parfaitement comblé s, car la semelle comporte une entre-semelle munie de cylindres de caoutchouc extensible. Les cylindres étanches sont reliés par un petit tube laissant passer l'air de un cylindre à l'autre pour que la  pression créer par la pesanteur du porteur se répartisse et donne en même temps une poussée d'air sur le point de pression, cela à pour effet;de ressentir une propulsion du poids au point de pression. Ces petits tubes ont  aussi pour buts de laisser passer l'air injectée ou expulsée par une valve de contrôle de pression d'air à l'intérieur des cylindres. Ce système est nécessaire pour contrôler la pression d'air désirée selon les besoins et  demande de chaque discipline sportive et pour avoir les résultats escomptés. La fabrication des cylindres varie sur la hauteur et sur le diamètre; selon les exigences d'usage ou spécifications précises pour de meilleurs performance où confort. Pour le confort du reste du pied le bas isolant à l'air poussée, retient très bien et épouse confortablement toute l e contour et les parties du piedqui travail beaucoup. Ce bas isolant à l'air poussée, peut être intégré ou ajout é à l'intérieur du soulier selon les besoins et à la discrétion du porteur.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à des techniques non effractives et aux appareils correspondants permettant de mesurer la teneur du sang d'un patient en un composant sélectionné. On refroidit, dans le cadre de cette invention, une partie de la membrane du tympan (10) du patient et l'on utilise le rayonnement thermique émis par l'oreille interne et transmis par cette partie refroidie de la membrane du tympan pour obtenir directement des informations sur la bande d'absorption en relation avec la teneur en divers composants du sang traversant la membrane du tympan. On utilise notamment, dans le cadre de cette invention, des appareils optiques (16, 18, 22) introduits dans la cavité de l'oreille externe pour diriger une partie du rayonnement émis vers un dispositif de détection infrarouge et d'analyse (24, 36). Le signal émanant du détecteur (24) est analysé afin d'évaluer la teneur du composant à étudier. Il est possible, dans le cadre de cette invention, de faire appel à des techniques classiques de spectrophotométrie comme à des techniques non spectrophotométriques pour obtenir la teneur d'un composant particulier.

Title: Anti-stacking system for operable walls
Inventor: OWENS N DOUGLAS
IPC: E04B2/82
Filed: 2001-04-04
Abstract: An anti-stacking system for an operable wall includes a guide rail mounted on or adjacent to the track so that the guide rail is engaged by panel orienting members attached to the trolley bolt. The guide rail may be mounted on the track or to the track suspending brackets. In a preferred embodiment, the guide rail is integral with the track. Panel orienting members that engage the guide rails are mounted to the bolts of the trolleys, which bolts in turn are fixed rotationally to the panels. At designated areas in the room, the track is free of the guide rail to allow stacking of the wall panels when not in use. In wall forming areas, the panel orienting members engage the guide rails so as to cause the trolley bolts, and thus the panels, to be properly rotated into a proper wall-forming arrangement and to remain in the wall forming arrangement until moved to a storage area.
