Abstract: Methods for preparation of biocatalysts and processes
for application of these biocatalysts for the preparation of
selected optically active epoxides with high enantiomeric
purity. The methods are based on the stereoselective
insertion of an oxygen atom derived from molecular oxygen
catalyzed by a microbial monooxygenase enzyme like styrene
monooxygenase into vinylaromatic compounds like indene or
styrene derivatives as an epoxide function. In particular,
these methods are useful for the preparation of (1S,2R)
indene oxide. The enzyme preparations can be used in
isolated, purified form or as whole cell preparations in
specific recombinant hosts expressing the respective genes of
microbial monooxygenases like styrene monooxygenase. Methods
for preparing isolated enzymes and recombinant hosts as well
as application methods for these systems in organic synthesis
are described. Biocatalytic reactions are performed in
aqueous medium or in multiphase media possibly containing one
or more of the following: a solid phase, an aqueous phase, an
organic phase, or a gaseous phase.

Abstract: The mechanism for the insertion of weft yarns into a rolling shed loom has a fixed unit (4) with a number of channels and jets (31) to feed the weft yarns (3). A second unit (5), rotating with the loom rotor, has a number of injector jets (12), to take the wefts (3) from the feed channels and propel them into the shed. The jets (31) at the static unit (4) take the weft yarn (3) continuously or intermittently from a supply bobbin, to charge the feed channels. The fixed section (4) has a holder (21) and an assembly (22) of channels in a curve, concentric at the holder. Compartment units form the channels. Each channel can have a transport channel and an extraction channel, where the transport channel has a clear width which is larger than that of the extraction channel. The channels can be assembled into a component, where each channel has a separate inlet and opens into a common outlet. The component has a number of units, where the first unit has the channels, which open into the second unit fitted with one opening. The channels can be divided into groups, with at least one group in the channel component. The channels have a cross section which tapers to the open longitudinal side. The second unit can be fitted with an auxiliary jet, aligned at the opening. The injector jets (12) are at equal angular intervals, on a common circle (24).

Title: Dispositif pour mesurer la vitesse angulaire
Inventor: ANDERSSON GERT
IPC: G01C19/56
Filed: 1999-01-22
Abstract: L'invention concerne un capteur qui comprend un corps (1) formé à partir d'un substrat planaire. Le corps définit une pièce allongée (2) dont les extrémités opposées sont conçues pour être fixées dans une position déterminée, la pièce allongée possédant un sens de pliage préféré qui forme un angle aigu avec le plan du substrat planaire. La pièce allongée (2) est munie d'un poids assurant l'inertie qui comprend deux bras (6, 7) reliés par une barre de connexion, la partie centrale de la barre de connexion étant formée d'un bloc avec une partie de la pièce allongée (2). Des plaquettes capacitives (15, 16, 18, 19) situées près d'une couche conductrice sur les bras (6, 7) sont pourvues de potentiels qui font tourner le poids assurant l'inertie en va-et-vient autour l'axe de la barre de connexion. Etant donné la forme de la pièce allongée (2), cela provoque l'oscillation rotationnelle du poids assurant l'inertie dans le plan du substrat. Si tout l'ensemble tourne autour d'un axe qui coïncide avec la barre de connexion, le poids assurant l'inertie tourne autour d'un axe qui coïncide avec la pièce allongée effectuant des rotations avec oscillations, ce que l'on peut détecter avec des plaquettes capacitives (23, 24) pour déterminer la vitesse angulaire.

Abstract: An electronically commutated motor has at least two winding phases (112, 114) which are wound together or otherwise inductively coupled. Current in each phase is controlled by a respective power transistor (124, 128). An integrated circuit controller (146) receives signals from a Hall sensor (118) and generates rotor position output signals (OUT1, OUT2) which are oppositely phased and are applied to the bases of the respective power transistors (124, 128) so that the power transistors never both conduct at the same time. Further, a pair of latching transistors (162, 172) and a pair of base drain resistors (164, 174), connected to respective bases of the power transistors (124, 128) are provided, in order to assure "soft" switching of the power transistors at low RPM, yet prompter switching and higher efficiency at high RPM. These additional components also ensure a sufficiently long current gap between switch-off of one power transistor and switch-on of the other power transistor.

Inventor: BAULIER GERALD DONALD
IPC: H04M3/36
Filed: 1999-04-05
Abstract: Selon cette invention, on réduit sensiblement les pertes dues à des fraudes dans un réseau de communication grâce au recours automatique et sélectif à une ou à plusieurs mesures d'authentification, fondées sur un indice des fraudes indiquant la probabilité d'une fraude pour un appel donné ou pour les appels auxquels on a appliqué l'indice précédemment. En appliquant l'authentification de manière sélective, uniquement aux appels que l'on soupçonne frauduleux ou qui sont confirmés en tant que tels, on lutte contre la fraude de manière à limiter les pertes qui y sont dues et, en même temps, à réduire au minimum les interruptions causées aux abonnés légitimes. En utilisant en guise d'exemple une fraude en matière de télécommunications, on enregistre un abonné dans un système en recueillant les données relatives à cet abonné sur la base d'un procédé d'authentification précis, par exemple, d'un procédé de savoir partagé (tel que les mots de passe) ou d'un procédé d'identification biométrique (tel que la vérification de la voix) ou similaires. Une fois enregistrée, la fonction d'authentification pour le compte d'abonné est actionnée, et tous les appels suivants sont contrôlés pour établir la probabilité d'une fraude au stade de la demande d'établissement d'un appel. L'établissement d'un indice de fraudes permet de faire une estimation de probabilité d'une fraude pour chaque appel, sur la base du comportement appris d'un abonné particulier et sur la base du comportement appris d'un fraudeur. Si l'on ne soupçonne pas de fraude on peut recommencer le traitement normal des appels sans recourir à l'authentification. Si l'on soupçonne une fraude sur la base de l'indice des fraudes, le système recourt automatiquement à l'authentification. Si l'authentification indique qu'il existe un soupçon de fraude, p.ex. lorsque les empreintes vocales ne correspondent pas, on peut soit bloquer l'appel, soit y appliquer des mesures de prévention appropriées, p.ex., le faire intercepter par un opérateur. Si, pendant l'authentification, une fraude n'est pas signalée, le traitement normal des appels peut recommencer.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de régulation pour un système de protection des occupants, notamment d'un véhicule à moteur, ainsi qu'un module correspondant. L'inconvénient des systèmes de sécurité actuels, de leurs procédés de régulation ou de leurs modules, réside dans le risque d'un déclenchement dû à des perturbations qui apparaissent comme une information réelle ou une information de consigne et entraînent le déclenchement. Il est possible d'éviter efficacement ce problème en bloquant une liaison du système de bus (5) vers l'unité de protection (2) des occupants, en fonction de la présence d'une information de blocage ou de consigne. De préférence, une information de blocage, qui est recouverte lors de l'activation, est mémorisée à la place de l'information de consigne. Cette opération n'est effectuée de préférence qu'après le montage du module dans le système de sécurité. Le module est protégé à l'entrée du système de bus contre des interférences électromagnétiques et/ou électrostatiques.
