Abstract: Method of manufacturing an optical reading disc, in particular for producing and fixing the recording of a coded datum in a sensitive resin layer applied to a transparent substrate of inorganic material, such as glass in particular, the resin layer preferably being covered on the outside by a thin protective layer. 
<??>According to the invention, this method is characterised in that it consists in recording, in a manner known per se, the signal corresponding to the coded datum by localised activation of the sensitive layer (3) through the substrate (2), and in then removing the protective layer (4), in etching the substrate through the activated zones of the sensitive layer acting as an etching mask, in lifting off the remainder of this sensitive layer, in coating the etched substrate with a thin reflective metallic layer (9) and lastly in depositing a final outer protective layer (10) on the metallic layer. 
<??>The invention also relates to the optical discs obtained by this method.

Date Jan. 24, 1991.A method of measuring or detecting an unknown distribution and content of solid material in a flow of liquid and gas is achieved without any calibration. One or several activated probes or specimens emitting radiation are used. The radiation is measured by a detector on the outside of the flow pipe. Each probe emits radiation only to one detector. The probes are mounted apart both lengthwise and across the pipe section. The probes are mounted at an angle  alpha  to the fluid flow, 20 DEG < alpha 60 DEG . Without any signal analyses, the probes will register whether the fluid flow contains solid material if the thickness of the probes is reduced 0.1 %. The particle content is calculated with a 0.25% thickness reduction. The amount of the particles impinging the probes can be calculated.

Abstract: Il est proposé un agencement de circuit pour l'alimentation en fréquences d'un circuit de calcul, où, outre un oscillateur à quartz, est prévu un second oscillateur à amorçage rapide d'oscillations. Afin d'assurer un travail rapide du circuit de calcul lors de la mise en marche du circuit de calcul et/ou à la suite de coupures de tension, c'est tout d'abord l'oscillateur à amorçage rapide d'oscillations qui est connecté, en présence de la tension, au circuit de calcul, de manière à ce que les processus de remise à zéro puissent se dérouler assez rapidement. Dès l'amorçage de l'oscillateur et dès qu'il a atteint un état de fonctionnement stable, on passe de l'oscillateur à amorçage rapide d'oscillations à l'oscillateur à quartz qui se charge alors de l'alimentation en fréquences du circuit de calcul.

Abstract: An electronic control for a roller blind contains a control device (2) with a front plate (4) in which a display (8) and a keyboard (10) are constructed, and a housing (6), which is situated on the rear side of the front plate and accommodates the control part and power part. By actuating individual keys of the keyboard (10), control signals are generated in the control part which cause the power part to rotate a motor, which drives the roller blind, in one or the other direction, so that the roller blind is opened or closed. Located in the control part is an annual calender unit which allows automatic generation of the abovementioned control signals as a function of the time of day of sunrise and sunset. A counter unit serving as a clock supplies to a comparator a time-of-day value which, for the purpose of opening or closing the roller blind, is compared with a time value read out of a table memory or calculated. In the event of agreement, the corresponding control signal is generated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A jersey sheath drawing device for fitting contact prostheses, whereby an upper or lower limb amputee can easily put on his own prosthesis. The workload of hospital staff assigned to assisting amputees in specialized rehabilitation centres can also be reduced. The device comprises a bearing (10) designed to rest on the rim of the opening (2) at the end of the nest (1) of the prosthesis, a self-locking catch (12) for tightly gripping the jersey sheath (1B) across the whole or only a part of its cross-section, a pulling runner (11) sliding on a sliding frame (6) and controlling the locking catch (12). The pulling runner (11) can be moved manually by means of the handles (6A, 8) or electrically by means of an endless screw driven by a motor. The device allows both the prosthesis (1) to be guided towards the stump (1A) for fitting thereto and the sheath (1B) to be pulled tight while using only one hand, the device staying in place throughout the process. The handles (6A, 8) are ideally placed from an ergonomical point of view, both for the amputee himself and for a third party.

Abstract: The system for determining a position of a probe relative to an object such as a head of a body patient. The head includes a surface such as a forehead having a contour. The head is placed in a cradle equipped with an arc. The cross-sectional images of the head are determined relative to the arc. A hand-held unit optically scans the forehead and the arc. During scanning to generate the cross-sectional images, the optical scanner is used to determine the position of the forehead relative to the cradle. During surgery, the optical scanner also determines the position of the forehead relative to a base ring. An array for receiving radiation emitted from the probe and from the base ring generates signals indicating the position of the tip of the probe relative to the base ring. A stereotactic imaging system selects and display the image of the head closest to the measured position of the tip of the probe.
