Abstract: A continuous fiber band(14) enters an extruder feed opening(18) parallel to and tangential to one of the two screw shafts and is coated with plastic film(10,11) from both sides, one side coated directly, the other indirectly. The coated rovings are then wrapped around the screw shafts(4,5) and driven forward in a feeding and impregnating section of the screw bores(2,3). Impregnated rovings are then cut to prescribed lengths in a short discharge section. An Independent claim is made for the plasticizing extruder(1) with twin bores(2,3) divided into a feed and impregnating section and a discharge section. The bore diameter in the feeding and impregnating section is enlarged by  NOTLESS  four times the thickness(S) of the roving band(14). One or two coating dies(12,13) are located above the extruder barrel feed opening(18) which runs parallel to the screw axes(6,7). The discharge section has a cutting edge at the inlet and bores with reduced diameter compared to those in the feeding and impregnating section. Preferred Features: The plastic film coating(10,11) may also be applied from just one side of the flat roving band, either directly onto the band on one side or indirectly on the other side by pressing the roving band into a flat side of the film. The fiber band is wound several times around the extruder shafts(4,5) and driven forward. Band windings may overlap.

Abstract: A single drive motor (34) is connected by a speed
reducer directly to a shaft (28) of one roll of two
aggressive surfaced rolls which form a chip destructuring
nip. One roll is dynamically positionable perpendicular to
its axis of rotation to open and close the nip. Each roll
(24,26) turns on a shaft positioned along the axis of the
roll which is mounted to a frame (22) by bearings. Only
the non-positionable roll (24) is driven directly by the
drive motor. The roll which is dynamically positionable is
driven by a tyre arrangement (52, 54) mounted about the
axes of the rolls. Opposed tyres mounted on the spaced
apart parallel shafts form a clutch-like means (50) for
driving the dynamically positionable roll.

Abstract: A method and system for indicating authentication of the
identity of a calling party based on an intrinsic property
of the calling party is disclosed. Representations of
intrinsic properties of potential calling parties are
gathered and stored as reference representations for use
in comparisons with later acquired representations. When a
later acquired representation matches an earlier acquired
representation, authentication of the calling party is
deemed to have occurred. Speedier authentication may be
provided by using calling line identification information
in conjunction with representation matches. When
authentication occurs, a signal is produced to indicate
same and such signal may be used in uniquely identifying
the calling party or in routing the call, for example.

Abstract: Afin d'améliorer l'efficacité d'un procédé de mise à jour dans un dispositif de traitement logiciel comportant plusieurs partitions mémoire (4, 14), l'invention propose de continuer l'exécution de l'ancien logiciel sur des données originales conservées dans une première partition mémoire (4) et de mettre à jour le nouveau logiciel et les données associées à celui-ci dans une seconde partition mémoire (14). Si le même état est obtenu (S4) pour des données de l'ancien et du nouveau logiciel, il s'effectue une commutation instantanée des services vers le nouveau logiciel, tant que le même état est obtenu (S5). Ce processus se répète (S6) jusqu'à ce qu'il ne reste plus (S6), dans la première partition mémoire, de données à transférer. Ainsi, la présente invention permet d'améliorer considérablement l'efficacité de la mise à jour, avec des perturbations réduites lors du transfert de données.

Abstract: A recess is produced in a material layer by creating at least a first and a second structure in various steps. The layers define each other laterally and extend to the bottom of the recess. The first structure and the second structure are so narrow that they can be made by creating conformally produced layers that have an independent thickness and are smaller than the depth of the recess. The conformally produced layers are formed in an appropriate deposition process. A covering structure can be produced on top of the first and second structure. An opening can be made in the covering structure, through which the first structure and the second structure can be removed in an etching step.

L'opération de recuit se déroule de préférence pendant cinq à vingt minutes environ. La durée de montée en température, permettant de passer de la température ambiante à la température de recuit, est régulée de manière à être inférieure à cent minutes environ et supérieure à trente minutes environ. La durée de décroissance de la température après le recuit est également régulée de manière que la température décroît de la température de recuit jusqu'à une valeur inférieure à 1500 °C environ en moins de deux minutes environ. Grâce à la régulation de la durée de montée en température, de la durée et/ou de la température du recuit et/ou de la durée de décroissance de la température, il est possible de fabriquer des dispositifs de puissance haute performance à base de carbure de silicium.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de détection des émissions à distance et un procédé pour détecter les émissions du moteur, selon lequel ce système détermine l'opacité des fumées d'échappement. Ce système comprend une source de rayonnement qui émet des rayonnements qui traversent la fumée d'échappement d'un véhicule à moteur jusqu'à un ou plusieurs détecteurs prévus pour recevoir ces rayonnements. Un processeur calcule la différence entre l'intensité des rayonnements de la source et l'intensité des rayonnements reçus par les détecteurs dans les première et deuxième bandes de détection. La différence d'intensité dans la deuxième bande de détection mesure l'opacité des échappements. Lorsque cette opacité excède un niveau prédéterminé, les données d'émissions provenant des autres bandes de détection peuvent être signalées comme suspectes ou rejetées. Par ailleurs, pour un véhicule à moteur diesel, la détermination de l'opacité des échappements peut être validée par une mesure du monoxyde de carbone dans la fumée d'échappement.
