Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de réglage rapide de la production d'une centrale électrique comprenant un turbogénérateur possédant à son tour une turbine à vapeur (2,4,6) et un générateur (8). Selon ce procédé, les accumulateurs d'énergie intervenant dans le processus de production de la centrale sont activés pour régler une augmentation de la production du générateur (PS). Afin d'ob t enir une régulation particulièrement efficace, l'invention propose d'utiliser une logique floue pour l'activation régulée des accumulateurs d'énergie. Pour ce faire, on utilise des règles logiques (FR1...4) fondées sur des données empiriques de la centrale. Un dispositif pour l'application de ce procédé comprend un système à logique floue (60) dont les entrées (a à e) contiennent l'augmentation de production du générateur (PS) ainsi que l'état d'énergie des accumulateurs devant être activés, et dont les sorties (g à j, l, o, q) indiquent les valeurs théoriques (Y) de réglage pour le degré d'activation des différents accumulateurs d'énergie.

Title: Tamper-proof lid lock in disc cartridge
Inventor: MIZUTANI HIKARU
IPC: G11B23/28
Filed: 1997-03-13
Abstract: A disc cartridge for containing therein a disc-shaped medium which includes a generally flattened disc casing having a disc chamber defined therein for accommodating the disc-shaped medium and also having an access opening leading into the disc chamber, a lid structure supported by the disc casing at a position adjacent the access opening for movement between a closed position, in which the access opening is closed, and an opened position, and a lid lock interposed between the disc casing and the lid structure for locking the lid structure in the closed position. The lid lock includes a removable lock piece having first and second spaced functional parts. The first functional part has a breakable region through which the removable lock piece is connected with a portion of one of the disc casing and the lid structure, and the second functional part is engageable with a portion of the other of the disc casing and the lid structure to retain the lid structure in the closed position. The lid structure can be moved from the closed position towards the opened position only when and after the removable lock piece is broken off along the breakable region by application of an external force thereto.

Abstract: The retainer has a number of elastic grips (10) positioned around the hole (15) for the screw fastener, with the inside tips of the grips on a circle with a smaller diameter than the shank of the fastener. The grips are claw shaped and are mounted on a collar fastened to the fitting. The claw grips are shaped to clip over the head of the screw fastener when screwed completely home. This ensures a retainer grip even with a reduction in the elasticity of the grips. The grips and the support collar are moulded plastics.

Abstract: A method for providing improved automated diagnosis of heart
function in a much less computationally intensive manner
than has been done previously comprises the following steps:
First, waveform templates known to be indicative of heart
conditions of interest are collected (42, 52). Second, a data
compression algorithm is used to extract (42, 44, 53, 54,
56, 57, 59, 61, 63) from the collected waveforms only that
data essential to making an accurate diagnosis of the conditions
with which the templates are associated; the resulting
data is used to construct waveforms referred to as reduced-data
electrocardiographic waveforms templates. Third, the
reduced-data electrocardiographic waveform templates are
then correlated (48, 50, 51) with the patient's electrocardiographic
waveforms and on the basis of the results of the
correlation a diagnosis is rendered (52-56).

Abstract: A holder, for holding a flat preferably circular disk-like substrate (compact disk) has of several grippers (14, 14') in the form of two-armed levers mounted on pins (16, 16') for pivoting between stops (18', 18a') in housings (13, 13'), the pins being fixed to the housings. The pin axes are tangential to and uniformly distributed around a vertically extending circular opening (15, 15') which surrounds the substrate and which is provided in a transport disk (3) supporting the housings, the opening having a diameter greater than the outside diameter of the substrate. One arm of each gripper projects radially towards the centre of the opening when the arm is horizontal, but is retracted from the opening region when the gripper arm free ends pivoted at an angle to the horizontal. The grippers have permanent magnets (24, 24a) which correspond with respective opposite poles of adjacent magnets (26, 26a) on the housings for holding the grippers in the horizontal position. A further vertically movable permanent magnet (22, 22') is mounted on each housing above the plane of the opening and is connected by a pusher (21, 21') to the armature of an electromagnet (20, 20'). Each vertically movable magnet is spaced from a further magnet (25, 25') on each gripper such that the gripper magnet holding force is exceeded when it is near the gripper but is not affected when it is remote from the gripper.

Abstract: According to the invention, footwear having an upper, outsole and midsole, has the inner part of the outsole having a cellular structure, e.g., in a shaped structure of a honeycomb type, and has the midsole perforated for allowing air to pass from the outsole to the interior of the footwear. With this construction, deformations of the cells of the outsole during walking cause a pumping effect that induces air circulation between the outsole and the interior of the footwear. This contributes to a recirculation and to a self-ventilation effect being induced in the area of the foot where such functions are needed.

Abstract: This invention relates to the synthesis of diamond and, more particularly, to an improved method for producing diamond film by chemical vapor deposition. 
     The method comprises the following steps : providing a graphite substrate having a surface over which diamond film is to be deposited, depositing diamond film over said surface of the substrate, and sawing through the substrate to saw off a layer thereof that includes the deposition surface and the diamond film. 
     Such a method has significant advantages over prior art methods that attempt to remove the diamond from the substrate. For instance, it is easier and cheaper to cut through the substrate, the thin layer of substrate attached to the diamond film can be removed for example by grinding if necessary, the substrate can be reused.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention relates to
liquid detergent compositions comprising the EDTA derived
anionic surfactants and other types of anionic/amphoteric
surfactants. Through careful balancing of the EDTA-derived
surfactants and other anionic and amphoteric surfactants,
ultra mildness to skin is achieved without sacrificing
consumer desired user properties, such as lather. In a
second embodiment, the invention relates to a process for
preparing the EDTA derived anionic surfactants into specific
formulation base. By carefully controlling the surfactant
concentration and temperature, the gelling of the EDTA-derived
surfactants is avoided and lather benefits are not
sacrificed.
