respective monitoring axis cooperates with a portion of the
plane on which the bar (12) being fed passes, the respective
monitoring axes having an angle of incidence with respect to
the plane on which the bars (12) are fed in the proximity of
a common point cooperating substantially with the
positioning seating (17) of the bars (12) on the translation
means (11), each of the monitoring means (19,20) lying on a
plane substantially orthogonal to the plane on which the

Abstract: A press-nut (1) is adapted to engage with the threads
of a bolt by pressing the nut (1) onto the bolt to receive
the bolt in an insertion hole thereof. The press-nut
comprises a plastic nut body (2), and a plastic tubular cap
member (3) adapted to be coupled to the nut body (2) to
contain the nut body (2) therein and to provide the
press-nut (1) with its external appearance. The cap member
(3) has a wide opening at one end so as to receive and
contain the nut body (2) and a small hole at the other end,
through which the bolt is inserted. The nut body (2)
comprises a base portion (6), at least two screw portions
(9) forming a nut (2) as a whole and having threaded grooves
(10) on the inner walls thereof, and spring portions (7)
extending from the base portion (6) and connected to the
respective screw portions (9) with each spring portion (7)
resiliently biasing the corresponding screw portion (9) so
as to be pressed upward from the base portion (6). The
outer surface of each screw portion (9) is tapered gradually
to reduce the diameter towards the bolt insertion hole on
the other end and the inner side of the cap member (3) is
also tapered to reduce the inner diameter thereof in
accordance with the tapered surface of the screw portions
(9).

Abstract: A thermal barrier coating system (20) for the
surface of an article (22) designed for use in a hostile
thermal environment, such as turbine, combustor and
augmentor components of a gas turbine engine. The thermal
barrier coating system (20) employs a bond coat (24) of a
nickel aluminide alloy over which a thermal-insulating
ceramic layer (26) is deposited. The nickel aluminide
bond coat (24) contains zirconium, but is otherwise
predominantly of the beta (β) NiAl phase. The bond coat
(24) is preferably deposited by a physical vapor
deposition process (PVD), such as by magnetron sputtering,
electron beam physical vapor deposition (EBPVD), jet vapor
deposition (JVD) and plasma spray. The NiAl bond coat
(24) with zirconium additions of between 0.05 and 0.5
atomic percent have been shown to exhibit drastically
improved thermal fatigue life over prior art bond coats,
with optimal results appearing to be obtained at or near
0.1 atomic percent zirconium.

Abstract: Cameras are positioned so that they each view a different reflective surface of a
polyhedron such as a pyramid. This results in each camera having a virtual optical center
positioned within the pyramid. The cameras are positioned so that their virtual optical
centers are offset from each other. The offsets produce narrow blind regions that remove
image distortions received from the edges of the pyramid's reflective surfaces.

Abstract: In a automobile transmission system, comprising a planet gear (6) interposed between
the output gear and the speed differentiator (7) of a transmission device, a gliding
hood (8) is provided additionally on the outer casing (70) of said speed differentiator (7); by the
dynamic steering capability of the planet gear, power transmitting on the output gear
assembly may be delivered by the planet gear active in direct or reverse rotation; moreover,
by the displacement of the gliding hood (8) on the outer casing (70) of the speed differentiator (7) the
power being transmitted by the planet gear (6) in direct or reverse rotation may be delivered
way to the speed differentiator (7), eventually as output by way of the output shaft (5) on the
output end on both sides of the speed differentiator (7), thus controlling the vehicle to move
forwards or backwards, with the input gear (21,22,23) and the output gear (51,52,53) devoted solely to take
charge of speed regulation without regard to direction of vehicle movement, forwards or
backwards, thus making possible structural simplification of automobile transmission
system while promoting operational efficiency and life in service as well.

Abstract: The starter panel comprises sub-assemblies that comprise a circuit-breaker (40), interconnection unit (50), contactor (60) and terminating block (70), all series-connected. The components' coplanar rear faces lie flat against the face-plate (21) of the base (20), which conceals a printed-circuit control board. The busbar chamber (10), cantilevered from one end of the base, abuts the circuit breakers, providing each with power and control connections. These connections, and those between the successive components of each subassembly, are readily consolidated or dismantled via front access holes (62). Adjoining component cases in each subassembly interlock with one another. Rear projections on the interconnection and terminating units lock with a sliding action into recesses in the face-plate. A retaining screw in the terminal unit then secures the subassembly.

Abstract: The invention relates to an address remapper (1) for a two wire
serial bus. This remapper connects two sections (3, 4) of the bus,
and is generally transparent, except when it receives an address; in
this case, the remapper changes the address before transmitting it
to the other section of the bus. This allows using stations having
the same physical address on the same bus, and allows a greater
number of stations to be used on the bus larger than that allowed
under an address format with a fixed part.

A correlation is made between, the acoustic emission recorded and given relation expressed in the form: dE/dt is proportional to (th((tr - t) divided by  DELTA ))<-)< alpha ) (1 + Ccos2  divided by log lambda (log(th((tr - t) divided by  DELTA )) + )), in which dE/dt is the variation of acoustic energy generated by the damage, t is the time, tr is the time instant of rupture,  DELTA ,  alpha , C,  lambda  and   are coefficients, in order to determine the prediction value of the rupture load from the pre-established law linking the time to the load. The co-efficient  DELTA  satisfies the relationship:  DELTA  ≥ tr - tp in which tp is the stop time of the applied load.

Le manipulateur comprend un certain nombre de liaisons (2, 3, 4) mobiles les unes par rapport aux autres, un organe de manipulation (5) permettant de supporter un outil, cet organe de manipulation (5) étant mobile par rapport aux liaisons, un certain nombre d'axes (A1-A6) autour desquels les liaisons ou l'organe de manipulation peuvent tourner, et enfin un moteur par axe, ce moteur commandant le mouvement de l'axe en fonction des valeurs de référence fournies pour le couple du moteur. Selon le procédé, le manipulateur adopte deux configurations d'axes sélectionnées. Un certain nombre d'axes d'identification sont désignés. Le manipulateur est commandé de telle façon que les axes d'identification réalisent plusieurs mouvements selon des modèles déterminés. Pendant ces mouvements, le couple moteur et l'angle des axes sont mesurés. Les moments de force de pesanteur des axes d'identification sont calculés à partir des couples moteurs mesurés pendant le premier mouvement. L'inertie de masse est calculée par corrélation entre les couples moteur mesurés et l'accélération calculée pendant le second mouvement. Les paramètres de charge sont calculés, à partir des moments de force de pesanteur et des inerties de masse calculés, à l'aide des équations de mouvement des axes d'identification.

Title: Concentrateurs solaires sans dispositif de poursuite

Filed: 1998-07-24
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système optique non imageur (20) permettant d'exploiter la lumière à l'aide de surfaces de réflexion à symétrie rompue (24, 26). La limite supérieure théorique pour la concentration du rayonnement solaire direct à basses latitudes avec des concentrateurs fixes est déterminée à partir de l'angle solide projeté échantillonné sur la base du mouvement apparent du soleil. Comme le rayonnement solaire n'est pas uniformément distribué à l'intérieur de cet angle solide projeté, on dérive des concentrations plus élevées qui s'appliquent lors du rejet des rayonnements de densité inférieure. Des systèmes du type en cuvette, ayant une symétrie de translation, ne peuvent pas constituer des concentrateurs fixes idéaux. On obtient une meilleure efficacité (figures 6, 7, 9) en utilisant le principe de la symétrie rompue pour les surfaces du réflecteur et pour la source lumineuse ou le concentrateur. On remarque, pour ce qui est de l'éclairage, que ce qui s'applique aux concentrateurs s'applique également aux réflecteurs.
