Patent EP-0592543-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KACZMAREK PETER ANTONY
IPC: E04G15/06
Filed: 1992-07-06
Abstract: On décrit différentes structures de gaines préfabriquées devant être placées autour de tuyaux autour desquels de la maçonnerie ou une fondation en béton doivent être disposées. La gaine agit de façon à maintenir le mortier/le béton hors de contact avec le tuyau (12) jusqu'à ce que le mortier ou le béton ait pris, et de façon à laisser un vide tout autour du tuyau après la dégradation d'au moins certains constituants (10) de la gaine entre la face externe du tuyau et celle de la gaine (2), comme requis selon les prescriptions relatives à la construction. La gaine peut être composée de matériaux peu coûteux qui se dégradent biologiquement sur place, ce qui évite de les enlever manuellement après que le mortier ou le béton ait pris. Les gaines peuvent être fournies préassemblées, ou peuvent être fabriquées sur place, par exemple lorsqu'on plie une ébauche en carton dur à surface imperméable.

Abstract: A radio-control toy vehicle (14) is provided with six nonsteerable wheels (21-26), three on each lateral side of the vehicle. At least the center wheel (23, 24) on each lateral side is drivingly coupled with a separate, reversible motor (31, 41). The vehicle is steered by controlling the operation and direction of each motor. The wheels are arranged and the vehicle statically balanced such that the vehicle (14) is supported by the center pair of wheels (23, 24) and one of the two remaining front and rear pairs of wheels, preferably the rear pair of wheels (25, 26), when the vehicle is stationary on a level, horizontal surface. The vehicle (14) is dynamically balanced so that when the wheels of the middle pair are driven in opposite linear directions, the vehicle spins rapidly about a vertical axis located directed between the middle pair of wheels and further pitches automatically slightly forwardly around the middle pair of wheels (23, 24) to lower the front end of the vehicle (14) while raising the rear end and rear pair of ground-contacting wheels from the ground, so that the vehicle is supported only on the center pair of wheels.

Abstract: A method for making an absorbent article, such as a sanitary napkin, having tabs (5). A first series of patches (10) of a not melt type pressure sensitive adhesive are applied to one side of a double-sided release strip (6). The release strip (6) is then placed against the central portion of the absorbent article so that the first adhesive patches (10) bond to the central portion. A second series of patches (11) of the adhesive are applied to the other side of the double-sided release strip (6) and tabs (5) are folded over the central portion so that the second adhesive patches (11) bond to the tabs (5). Since the release strip (6) has been coated with a release agent, such as silicone, on both of its sides, the first and second patches (10, 11) of adhesive bond to the central portion and the tabs (5), respectively, with greater tenacity than they did to the release strip (6). When the user removes the release strip (6) prior to use, the first and second adhesive patches (10, 11) remain on the central portion and the tabs (5). Thus, a hot melt type of pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to the central portion and the tabs without danger that they will be scorched by the heat of the hot melt adhesive as it leaves the glue gun.

Abstract: Processes are disclosed for incorporating a water-insoluble substance in a diffusion resistant form into a hydrophilic colloidal layer of an element. In a first process A the water-insoluble substance is present during the polycondensation of diol(s) or polyol(s) and carboxylic acids, whereby at least 6 mole % of the reagents bear a water-solubilizing group, preferably a sulpho group in the salt form ; the obtained mixture of polyester and water-insoluble substance is then dispersed in an aqueous medium. In an alternative process B the polyester is first prepared and then mixed homogeneously with the hydrophobe substance by melting in a reactor or extruder ; the mixture is then similarly dispersed. The obtained latex is then incorporated in a hydrophilic colloidal layer which is coated on a support. 
     The obtained element can serve as base for a reprographic image, e.g. a colour proof image, or can form part of a complete photographic material. 
     In a preferred embodiment the water-insoluble substance is a brightening agent.

Abstract: An arrangement (50) for collision prevention is provided for an apparatus, in particular an x-ray examination apparatus, having components (1,5,6) that can be moved by drive means (9). A collision is detected by way of detecting the speed of a relevant moving part and detecting (21) the current and/or power supplied to the drive means. Reference values for current and/or power during normal operation in dependence of the speed acquired by the moving components are provided from a memory means (22) and actually required current and/or power values are compared to said reference values. In addition, actual positions of the components are detected and compared to computed expected positions of said components. A collision is detected when the required current and/or power supply exceeds a relevant reference value and the detected actual position deviates from the corresponding calculated expected position. As a consequence of a collision being detected, the moving component involved in a collision is detached from the drive means so as to avoid damage or injury as a cause of the collision. 
     Apart from x-ray examination apparatus, also industrial robots which operate in circumstances where person may approach the apparatus to within the reach of moveable components are preferably fitted with an arrangement for collision protection as described above.
