Abstract: Device for joining the armours of two cables (1, 2) armoured by wires. The armour or armours are inserted at each end of a cable between conical pieces (5, 9; 6, 10), the inner piece (5, 6) being integral with a flange (7, 8) bolted to one of the two similar flanges (13, 14) which are fixed to the two ends of a flexible tubular assembly with three layers of wires. The first, inner layer (22) is helically wound. The other two (19, 20) are wound with equal inverse pitches. The diameters of the first layer and of the aperture of the two flanges allow this assembly to slide to one end above one of the cables to be coupled, stripped of its armour, and to the other above the junction of the cables. Method for manufacturing this device.

Filed: 1989-10-19
Abstract: An elastic bearing 1 for damping vehicle engine movements is presented, which is constructed from a receptacle 2 and an elastic material 3 partly remaining in the receptacle 2. Motion damping properties of the bearing 1 are determined by a choice of a combination of the sectional profile of the material 3 held in the receptacle 2 and in the inner section of the receptacle 2 which is to co-operate with the material 3. 
     The bearing 1 is simple and able to damp motions in independent X, Y and Z direction. 
     In addition the longitudinal dimension of a flared circumferential flange 21 and the shape of outline 4 of the material, define a working space 23, whose spatial form also determine the damping properties in the various directions. The flange 21 further controls the properties by determining the bulging of the material 3 over the longitudinally dimensioned flange 21.

Title: Heat transferable laminate.
Inventor: PARKER TIM
IPC: B32B7/06
Filed: 1989-01-23
Abstract: An improved release system for heat transferable laminates wherein a transferable substrate which contains a design layer is transferred from a carrier web onto an article such as a plastic bottle or container upon application of heat and pressure. The carrier web includes a nonwax polyethylene layer. The improved release system includes a polyethylene layer portion of the carrier web in contact with and adhered to a nonwax transfer layer portion of the transferable substrate. The transferable substrate including the ink design layer transfers to the article upon application of heat to the carrier while the article contacts the laminate. The transferred substrate on the article is clear and exhibits improved scuff and abrasion resistance. The nonwax transfer layer portion of the transferable substrate advantageously contains an oil which becomes activated upon application of heat to promote release of the transferable substrate from the carrier web to the article.

Abstract: Ultrasound imaging apparatus has a (18) probe disposed on a longitudinal axis. A linear array (22) of ultrasound transducer elements is arranged along the axis of the probe. The array is alternatively held stationary and oscillated relative to the probe about the axis between limits to define a sector (26). In a first mode, the transducer elements are actuated successively while the array is held stationary to generate a longitudinal rectilinear scan (24). In a second mode, some of the transducer elements are actuated repeatedly while the array is oscillated to generate a transverse sector scan orthogonal to the longitudinal scan. The echoes received by the transducer elements in the first and second modes are displayed as images of respective orthogonal planes (FIG. 3). In either case, the user selects the position of the scan plane within the field of view of the array while the probe is held in a stationary position against the skin of the patient.
