Abstract: A steering lock, and a method of use, for connecting child's bicycle (2) behind adult bicycle (4), with the front wheel (6) of child's bicycle (2) being elevated so that the adult rider retains steering control. The steering lock comprises receiver (20) or pivot receiver (30) attached to the head tube (13) of child's bicycle (2), a coupler (22) attached to a bicycle tow bar (24) on adult bicycle (4), and a steering lock pin (10). As coupler (22) is secured against receiver member (20) or pivot receiver (30) with quick-release safety pin (25), steering lock pin (10) is forced through aligned holes in head tube (13), steering fork tube (15), and handlebar stem tube (17) on child's bicycle (2) to lock one to the other during tandem travel. Thus, child's bicycle (2) can be expediently converted from independent operation to a tandem configuration multiple times during the same ride.

Title: Composition d'additifs a liberation controlee pour circuit de refroidissement
Inventor: BLAKEMORE THOMAS
IPC: C08L31/04
Filed: 2002-02-12
Abstract: Cette invention concerne une composition d'additifs à libération contrôlée s'utilisant dans des systèmes aqueux. Cette composition comprend une âme renfermant au moins un composant d'additif logée sous un revêtement polymère. Cette composition d'additif pour circuit de refroidissement à libération contrôlée libère lentement les additifs dans le système aqueux, ce qui permet de maintenir durablement une concentration appropriée d'additifs. Un circuit de remplacement d'additif permet d'introduire de manière contrôlée des additifs dans un circuit ouvert de recirculation ou dans un circuit d'eau de chaudière à boucle fermée. Le circuit de remplacement comporte une canalisation pour appoint renfermant un système d'additif. Un liquide d'appoint pénètre dans la canalisation d'appoint, le système d'appoint étant conçu pour libérer progressivement l'additif dans le liquide d'appoint, lequel assure le transport des additifs dans le circuit de recirculation ouvert ou dans le circuit de chaudière à boucle fermée. Le système de remplacement de liquide permet de libérer progressivement des additifs dans le circuit de recirculation ouvert ou dans le circuit de chaudière à boucle fermée, ce qui garantit une concentration efficace d'additifs pendant un laps de temps prolongé.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur une prothèse implantable remplie d'hydrogel de kératine dont une variante est un implant mammaire comprenant une enveloppe contenant un hydrogel de kératine servant à augmenter ou reconstituer le volume d'un sein, et une autre variante, un implant occupant l'espace d'un disque intervertébral. On obtient l'hydrogel de kératine à partir d'un précurseur solide auquel on ajoute de l'eau, l'une des sources de kératine étant le cheveu humain. Selon une méthode, on utilise une enveloppe adaptée à l'implantation et le susdit précurseur solide qui peut être sous forme de fibres ou de poudre et qu'on introduit dans l'enveloppe qu'on insère dans une petite incision faite à côté du sein. Après l'insertion on peut injecter de l'eau de préférence par l'incision dans un orifice autoobturant de l'enveloppe. Selon une autre méthode l'implant se présente sous la forme d'une trousse contenant l'hydrogel de kératine et l'enveloppe dans laquelle on peut injecter l'hydrogel soit avant soit son implantation dans la région mammaire. L'un des type de trousse contient le précurseur d'hydrogel en poudre placé dans l'enveloppe auquel on ajoute de l'eau de préférence après l'implantation. Selon une troisième méthode, l'implant comprend une enveloppe où se trouve déjà l'hydrogel ou son précurseur.

De plus, le SIP est utilisé pour identifier le mode d'exploitation préféré du RSVP par négotiation. Le SIP est utilisé pour indiquer la compatibilité de l'UE avec le RSVP, les supports basés sur le RSVP, le mode d'exploitation préféré, c'est-à-dire soit la signalisation RSVP basée sur l'UE, soit la signalisation RSVP proxy GGSN, et pour communiquer un mode d'établissement final de la signalisation RSVP à l'UE à partir de la fonction de commande de politique (PCF). Le SIP peut également être utilisé pour permettre à l'UE et au réseau d'indiquer un protocole de qualité de service (QoS) recherchée au cours d'une procédure d'établissement d'appel. Le SIP est également utilisé pour permettre à l'UE et/ou au réseau final d'indiquer dans leur réponse la capacité d'exploitation d'un protocole QoS particulier, l'appel étant rejeté avec une indication claire de la cause lorsque le réseau final n'est pas compatible avec le protocole QoS proposé.

IPC: H01L29/423

Abstract: A RESURF trench gate MOSFET has a sufficiently small pitch (close spacing of neighbouring trenches) that intermediate areas of the drain drift region are depleted in the blocking condition of the MOSFET. However, premature breakdown can still occur in this known device structure at the perimeter/edge of the active device area and/or adjacent the gate bondpad. To counter premature breakdown, the invention adopts two principles: the gate bondpad is either connected to an underlying stripe trench network surrounded by active cells, or is directly on top of the active cells, and  a compatible 2D edge termination scheme is provided around the RESURF active device area.These principles can be implemented in various cellular layouts e.g. a concentric annular device geometry, which may be circular or rectangular or ellipsoidal, in the active area and in the edge termination, or a device array of such concentric hexagonal or circular stripe cells, or a device array of square active cells with stripe edge cells, or a device array of hexagonal active cells with an edge termination of hexagonal edge cells.
