Abstract: An electrically powered iontophoretic delivery device is provided. The device includes a pair of electrode assemblies (41, 43) and a source of electrical power (30) connected thereto. Circuitry (60) is provided including an activation circuit (62) and a power generating circuit (70). Before use, neither the power generating circuit (70) nor the activation circuit (62) draw current from the power source (30). When the device is placed on the body (50) and electrical contact is established between the two electrode assemblies (41, 43), the activation circuit (62) is closed causing the power generating circuit (70) to be activated, thereby activating the device. The circuitry (60) improves the shelf-life of the device by minimizing current drain from the battery (30) before use.

Abstract: A compression space (4) which is connected to the valve inlet (Z), is arranged on one side of a differential piston (2) supporting the valve plate (2.1), a control space (5) being arranged on its other side. The compression space (4) is connected via the valve seat (3) to the valve outlet (A) and, via a control orifice (10) in the differential piston (2), to the control space (5). The control space (5) is connected to the valve outlet (A) via a relief channel (6.1-6.2-6.3) which is guided through the magnetic valve seat (9). The magnet coil (16), which is surrounded by a magnet yoke (18), contains a guide tube (15) in which a magnet armature (14) is guided such that it can be displaced freely, the magnet armature seal (8) being arranged on the one end of the magnet armature (14), while its other end is opposite a head piece (17). The magnet armature (14), head piece (17) and magnet yoke (18) consist of soft-magnetic material. The opening impulse magnetises the head piece (17), attracts the magnet armature (14) and opens the magnetic valve. When the closing impulse, which counteracts the magnetisation, occurs, the intrinsic weight of the magnet armature (14) causes it to fall and the magnetic valve closes. The valve can be driven with an energy requirement of approximately 10 mWs per operation cycle.

Date Oct. 15, 1992.The present invention relates to a method of classifying the pixels of an image belonging to a sequence of moving images, as well as to a method of temporal interpolation of images using this classification. The method of classifying the pixels of an image t(j+1) pertains to temporal projection of the field of motion of an image t(j) belonging to a sequence of moving images, with the pixels of the image t(j) being defined by a motion vector and by a tag belonging to a class such as "normal", "occluding" or "appearing". The method is characterized by the fact that, before projection, all pixels of t(j) are tagged "appearing", and then, during the temporal projection, the tagging is modified as a function of the tagging of the pixels of t(j) in such a way as to obtain a tagging according to the same above classes (i.e., normal, occluding, or appearing).

Abstract: On décrit un système pour avions capable de générer un signal d'alarme lorsque l'appareil poursuit un cap dangereux par rapport au terrain devant être survolé de manière imminente et aux objets pouvant s'y trouver. Le système effectue un calcul des trajectoires de remontée que l'appareil pourrait effectuer en un point de référence (RP) de sa trajectoire de vol (FP) en avant de la position actuelle de l'appareil (CP), compte tenu des incertitudes d'au moins la position de l'appareil. L'ensemble desdites trajectoires définit une zone qui se déplace théoriquement devant l'avion, la distance d'avance étant fonction de la vitesse et de l'accélération de l'appareil et de sa réponse dynamique aux ordres reçus du pilote, ainsi que du temps de réaction de celui-ci; ladite zone est donc une région que l'appareil est susceptible de survoler de façon imminente. Un signal d'avertissement est déclenché si un point quelconque de la trajectoire présente une relation déterminée avec des données sotckées dans une mémoire de données cartographiques contenant des données d'altitude relatives à la région définie par lesdites trajectoires.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for automatically identifying a program broadcast by a radio station or by a television channel, or recorded on a medium, by adding an inaudible encoded message to the sound signal of the program, the message identifying the broadcasting channel or station, the program, and/or the exact date. In one embodiment the sound signal is transmitted via an analog-to-digital converter to a data processor enabling frequency components to be split up, enabling the energy in some of the frequency components to be altered in a predetermined manner to form an encoded identification message, and with the output from the data processor being connected via a digital-to-analog converter to an audio output for broadcasting or recording the sound signal. In another embodiment, an analog bandpass filter is employed to separate a band of frequencies from the sound signal so that energy in the separated band may be thus altered to encode the sound signal. The invention is particularly applicable to measuring the audiences of programs that are broadcast by radio or television, or that are recorded.

Abstract: A process for the dyeing of a fibrous article containing wool with an anionic dye and products processed thereby. The process includes immersing the article in a dyeing bath of a liquid solvent for the anionic dye. The liquid solvent and the article are heated to a temperature at least equal to the dyeing transition temperature. At least a portion of the dye is added as a miscible liquid concentrate while the solvent and the article are up to temperature. Stirring of the bath during the dye addition period and while the solvent and article are up to temperature is done to mix the dye concentrate with the solvent to form a dilute dye solution and to provide a flow of the dilute dye solution relative to the article to cause, on the average, essentially uniform dye transport of the anionic dye to the article. The dye addition rate is adjusted so that the dye addition rate is the primary control over the rate of dye uptake by the article.

Abstract: A metal rod having a conical or pyramidal cut extremity is used to make a mandrel (21) of a blind rivet. The rod is held in place between a pair of die segments (11) such that an end of a preset length including the cut extremity is swageable and protrudes from an upper surface (14) of the segments (11). Subsequently, the swageable end (26) is axially compressed to form a mandrel head (27) by a punch (12) which has a lower face (17) extending parallel to the upper surface (14) of the segments (11) and a conical or pyramidal recess (18) fittable on the cut extremity. Thus, a free intermediate portion of the swageable end (26) compressed by the punch (12) swells radially to form the head (27) which has a flat flange (31) from which the cut extremity (20a) protrudes as a lug (32) upwardly and centrally. The mandrel (21), which has the head formed uniform without any eccentricity about the axis of a mandrel body, can thus be produced inexpensively using nail manufacturing apparatus. <IMAGE>
