Abstract: Provided is a vinyl chloride polymer production process
comprising the steps of polymerizing in an aqueous medium a vinyl
chloride monomer alone or a mixture of monomers including the
vinyl chloride monomer, and adding an antioxidant to starting
materials or a polymerization reaction mixture. As the
antioxidant, a mixed antioxidant comprised of an antioxidant A
which is liquid at 20°C and an antioxidant B which is powdery
at 20°C is used. This process is well operable, enables
polymerization to be sufficiently terminated using an
antioxidant in a small quantity and enables production of vinyl
chloride polymers having less uneven plasticizer absorption and
having both good anti-initial-discoloration properties and good
thermal stability.

Abstract: A spring and damper unit (10) comprises two telescopically movable housings (11, 12) bounding an interior space formed by a cavity (16) in one of the housings and a cavity (23) in the other housing, and a floating piston (24) disposed in one of the cavities (23) and dividing the interior space into a spring chamber (27) containing a gaseous medium such as air and a damping chamber (26) containing a damping fluid such as hydraulic oil, the housings being movable together in a compression stroke thereof to compress the gaseous medium through reduction in the volume of the spring chamber (27) and the piston (24) being movable by the compressed gaseous medium to cause a reduction in the volume of the damping chamber (26) for displacement of fluid therefrom. The spring thus has a dual function in the unit. In addition, the walls (15; 19/20) of the housings are each provided with a respective one of two oppositely directed projections (28, 29; 31, 32) which together with substantially concentric portions of the walls bound a further damping chamber (33) for receiving the displaced fluid. These projections are movable towards another, on movement of the housings (11, 12) apart in a rebound stroke thereof, so as to cause a reduction in the volume of the second damping chamber (33) for expulsion of fluid to be returned under positive pressure to the first damping chamber (26).

Title: Ski guide pressure intensifier plate (snow-speed)
Inventor: BUENTER ROLAND
IPC: A63C9/00
Filed: 2000-02-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a ski binding assembly plate which can be fixed or can be adjusted in terms of its forward inclination and height and which therefore makes it possible to increase the pressure on the front guiding part of the ski. The ski binding assembly plate is fixed on the ski by means of a two-point support and arrest system. As a result, the ski has a free bending moment and is therefore dynamic and runs very smoothly. A wedge function and a force transmission system prevent the ski from being propelled back by the counterpressure in the area of the ski binding. A damping system absorbs vibrations and knocks. The plate can be fitted with any brand of ski binding and fits any type or brand of ski. The possibility of adjusting the plate individually enables it to be adapted to suit any ski, skiing style or technical level of the skier.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de test pour des bandes transporteuses, comprenant une pluralité de sections de test situées à différents emplacements sur la longueur ladite bande transporteuse, de façon à déterminer avec précision l'état de la bande à ces emplacements. Chaque section de test comprend un élément d'identification radiofréquence de sorte que lorsque ladite section de test traverse un région de surveillance pourvue d'un appareil de surveillance, l'élément d'identification radiofréquence transmet un signal d'identification qui indique la présence d'un dispositif de test.

Si une détérioration de la bande disjoint un fil de sorte que le courant ne s'écoule pas, elle est détectée par l'appareil de surveillance.

Title: Filtering device
Inventor: PESQUET-POPESCU BEATRICE
IPC: H03H17/02
Filed: 2000-07-21
Abstract: The invention relates, in the field of subband decomposition, to the design of filter banks adapted to the input signal statistics. In most cases, two channel filter banks are iteratively applied over several levels of decomposition, the signals in the resulting subbands representing decimated and filtered versions of the input signal. According to the invention, it is proposed a perfect reconstruction critically decimated polyphase filter bank with a ladder structure, which adapts to the nonstationarities in the input signal. In the simplest embodiment, four steps are provided in the implementation of the filtering method: a splitting step (21), provided for subdividing the input signal co(n) into two disjoint subsets co(2n) and co(2n+1) of samples (odd and even ones), a predicting step (22), provided for predicting on the basis of the even subset the odd one (d1(n) = co(2n+1) - P1 [co(2n)], an updating step (23), provided for generating on the basis of said predicted odd subset the even one (c1(n) = co(2n) + U1 [d1(n)], and an iterative cross-optimization step associating said updating step (23) of the current decomposition level and the predicting step (32) of the following one. More generally, several successive similar scales may be provided, a minimization of the variance of the obtained coefficients being used as an optimization criterion at each scale.
