Abstract: La présente invention concerne une barrière pour automobiles, rétractable dans le sol, renforcée, destinée à un passage à niveau. Selon l'invention, des bunkers en ciment sont placés de chaque côté d'un chemin de roulement. Un tube d'acier rempli de ciment, vertical, fixé dans chaque bunker présente un manchon pouvant avoir un mouvement de rotation et axial. Des absorbeurs de chocs sont montés sur chaque manchon. Un filet s'étend à travers la route et est fixé aux extrémités opposées des absorbeurs de chocs. La collision d'une automobile avec le filet crée des forces de traction dans le filet. Les absorbeurs de chocs s'expansent tout en tournant autour de l'axe du tube en réponse aux forces de traction du filet qui atteignent ou dépassent un seuil minimum. Les forces du filet traversent l'axe du tube d'acier. Le filet est stocké dans une fosse perpendiculaire à la chaussée parallèlement à la voie ferrée et est levé et abaissé de manière appropriée. Le filet comprend un câble qui s'étend à travers la route selon une configuration d'onde, présentant des pics, des vallées et des points centraux, les tangentes des points centraux de l'onde étant au moins à 90 degrés des tangentes des pics et des vallées.

Title: Tamper-evident quick twist closure
Inventor: AUER ROBERT
IPC: B65D41/47
Filed: 2003-06-25
Abstract: A cap (100) with a tamper-evident ring (300) is designed to snap engage a container (200) that is provided with an upper (220) and lower bead (225). A ring of teeth (180) provided along an inside skirt of the cap engage teeth (230) located along an inside wall of the container. When the cap is snapped onto the container, both sets of teeth automatically engage and a plug seal (150) provided on the cap engages the container upper bead (220). By turning the cap (100) clockwise or counterclockwise, the side angles of the teeth force the cap to disengage upwards over the upper bead and unsnap from the container. When the closure is opened for the first time, the ring (300) breaks away from the cap (100) and slides down the container below the lower bead (225), which keeps the ring from coming off the container and provides evidence that the cap had been opened.

Abstract: In the case of a dielectric barrier discharge lamp, the discharge vessel (1) is composed of an outer bulb (3) and an inner bulb (4) arranged within the outer bulb, with the result that a discharge space (8) filled with a discharge medium is formed between the inner and the outer bulb. Strip-like electrodes (11) are arranged on the outer side, which is remote from the discharge medium, of the wall of the inner bulb (4). Since there are no longer inner electrodes having a dielectric coating and there is no gas-tight current bushing, this concept combines simple manufacture with protection of the outer electrodes, for example against electric shock.
