Abstract: L'invention concerne une poignée (2) destinée à des scies à main dotées de lames dentées allongées. Cette poignée comprend une partie arrière de préhension (3) et une partie avant de fixation (4) à laquelle la lame peut être fixée par une de ses extrémités. La partie de préhension (3) est reliée à la partie de fixation (4) par une partie de transition (6) plus étroite que la partie de fixation. Ainsi, une partie inférieure (4') de la partie de fixation fait un peu saillie sous la partie de transition en délimitant un évidement concave (7) dont la profondeur correspond sensiblement à la largeur normale de l'index d'un homme, ce qui permet de localiser une ligne droite imaginaire située dans le prolongement de la denture (5) de la lame dans la zone comprise entre l'index et le majeur de la main tenant la scie.

Abstract: A method of compression moulding an article from rubber moulding material incorporating hollow inserts avoids damage to the inserts. Where compression moulding takes place in an enclosed mould at an elevated pressure, the pressure can distort and damage the hollow inserts especially if they are of plastics. In order to avoid such distortion and damage, the method compresses during moulding creating a pressure in a cavity of the insert which substantially balances the pressure exerted on the exterior of the insert by the rubber moulding material in the mould. The pressure in the cavity is preferably produced by introducing some rubber moulding material into the cavity of the insert. This material becomes pressurised during moulding and supports the interior of the insert.

Abstract: To achieve a highly efficient identification of messages stored in the storage unit (12) of a message handling system the storage unit (12) is adapted to store a plurality of messages to provide a dynamic access thereto. This is achieved by at least one attribute (A=(p,f) ε A) assigned to each message such that each attribute describes at least one aspect of a message and a specific value for this aspect. Typical aspects to be used within the message handling systems are, e.g., a folder aspect, a status aspect, a time aspect, or a communication partner aspect. Within the message handling system (10) access to stored messages is organized through views being defined as a subset of view aspects (pξ ⊆ P) and a set of view values (Vpξ ⊆ V) for each such view aspect. Messages are then read from the storage unit (12) in accordance with the specified view.

Abstract: An apparatus for insertion of a key (28) therein substantially prevents
foreign matter from entering into a key insertion hole (22), and even if foreign
matter does enter into the key insertion hole (22), discharges the foreign
matter therefrom. A shutter (30) is provided within the key insertion hole (22) so as
to be movable along a direction of insertion of a key (28). The shutter (30) is always
urged by a compression coil spring (40) toward an opening (24) of the insertion
hole (22). In a state in which no key (28) is inserted, the shutter (30)
closes the insertion hole (22). The shutter (30) is provided with a
reflecting surface (38), and when no key (28) is inserted in the insertion hole (22), the
reflecting surface (38) reflects light from a light source (36) so as to illuminate the
opening (24) of the insertion hole (22). Thus, even if a region surrounding the
opening (24) of the insertion hole (22) is dark, the opening (24) can be visually
confirmed and the key (28) can be easily inserted into the insertion hole (22).

Abstract: In a method for putting into storage and dispensing sheet-like objects, in particular bank notes, between at least one tension storage belt into or from a storage reel, in time periods between input and dispensing cycles, at least one belt tightening operation (F1-F3), which uses an increased belt tightening tension by comparison with the base belt tension is carried out. This operation is used to tighten up the belt in the belt spool of the storage reel so that the objects in the belt spool are tightened to increase the storage reel capacity and in order preferably to lend the belt spool greater mechanical stability so that the latter remains stable at the sides even when the filling level is high. Advantageously, the belt tightening is carried out in pulsed manner at a repetition frequency in the Hertz range using a pulse duty factor of active tensioning force relative to a base nominal value of between 0.2 and 2.0, preferably in the region of 1.0.
