Abstract: Cette invention concerne un ordinateur personnel (9) dans lequel une carte d'extension (13) permet de recevoir des signaux (TV) numériques depuis un système de télévision par câble ou depuis un satellite de diffusion. L'ordinateur comprend ainsi une carte d'extension avec un connecteur RF (6) ainsi qu'une fente (17) de réception de carte intelligente servant à des fins d'accès conditionnel. En l'état actuel de la technique, on utilise dans les ordinateurs un carte intelligente (11) ayant la taille d'une carte de crédit. Etant donné les dimensions de la carte intelligente et la hauteur disponible de la carte d'extension, le syntoniseur (12) doit être placé derrière le lecteur (10) de carte intelligente, ce qui nécessite la pose d'un câble (8) entre le connecteur (6) et ledit syntoniseur (12). L'utilisation de ce câble entraîne une hausse des coûts de production ainsi qu'une perte additionnelle de signaux. Dans l'ordinateur faisant l'objet de cette invention, on utilise une carte intelligente (21) de taille réduite qui permet de placer le syntoniseur (12) directement derrière la console (4) à proximité du lecteur (20) de carte intelligente de taille réduite.

Abstract: An arrangement for monitoring a condition of a counterbalance torsion spring in an overhead door or gate and preventing the door or gate from accidentally slamming shut or dropping too rapidly when the spring fails. The arrangement includes a drum mounted on a shaft which transmits the torque of the spring to the drum. During normal operation a sensor and release assembly maintains a catcher in a inactive position and when the spring fails, the sensor and release assembly allows the catcher to move to an active position and engage a grabber disposed on an inside surface of the drum to block rotation of the drum and therefore movement of the door or gate.

Abstract: A sensor utilizing a non-leachable or diffusible redox mediator is described. The sensor includes a sample chamber to hold a sample in electrolytic contact with a working electrode, and in at least some instances, the sensor also contains a non-leachable or a diffusible second electron transfer agent. The sensor and/or the methods used produce a sensor signal in response to the analyte that can be distinguished from a background signal caused by the mediator. The invention can be used to determine the concentration of a biomolecule, such as glucose or lactate, in a biological fluid, such as blood or serum, using techniques such as coulometry, amperometry, and potentiometry. An enzyme capable of catalyzing the electrooxidation or electroreduction of the biomolecule is typically provided as a second electron transfer agent.

Abstract: A bearing mat for supporting an exhaust gas catalyst is configured as a binding agent-free, multi-layered flat structure made of thermally stable threads mechanically reinforced by quilting seams. The threads consist of a crimped yarn composed of filaments and are fixed in the flat structure by the quilting seams under tensile stress. The quilting seams are sewn using a thread whose thermal stability is lower than the mat's operating temperature. A process for producing the mat is also provided, in which crimped yarn composed of thermally stable filaments is withdrawn from rolls in several strands and placed under tension on a transporting device moving transversely to the take-off direction in order to form a multi-layered flat structure. The flat structure moved forward by the transporting device is mechanically reinforced with quilting seams so that the threads remain under tension after the flat structure is removed from the transporting device.
