Abstract: L'invention concerne une composition de polissage de métaux servant à polir une couche de métal et comprenant un composé filmogène qui se polymérise à la surface de la couche métallique de manière à former une pellicule polymère à la surface de la couche métallique. L'invention concerne également un procédé de polissage de la couche métallique, comprenant une étape consistant à polir et à planariser la couche métallique formée sur le dessus d'une plaquette qui contient des évidements, afin de remplir et de recouvrir ces évidements par ce procédé de polissage de couche métallique. Cette composition et ce procédé de polissage permettent d'empêcher le bombage de manière à améliorer la planéité, et à augmenter la vitesse de polissage lors du polissage de couches métalliques, en particulier de couches de cuivre, et permettent ainsi un polissage ultra-rapide à faible pression. Cette composition et ce procédé permettent en outre d'éviter la formation de rayures, et d'améliorer ainsi le rendement.

Abstract: A safety mechanism for a hedge trimmer is disclosed. Thumb catches 1032,
1048, together with corresponding locking members are initially biased downwardly
relative to corresponding actuator levers 1010, 1014, as a result of which actuation of
a motor of the hedge trimmer is prevented. This prevents inadvertent one-handed
actuation of the hedge trimmer. In order to actuate the hedge trimmer, the user holds
one of the actuator levers 1010, 1014 the corresponding thumb catch 1032 or 1048
upwardly, which causes movement of the other thumb catch towards its release
position to allow pivotable movement of the actuator levers 1010, 1014 relative to a
handle of the hedge trimmer. Movement of one of the actuator levers 1010, 1014
relative to the handle brings the lever 1018 into engagement with the electrical switch
assembly 1008 to actuate the motor of the hedge trimmer. When the actuator levers
1010, 1014 are released, torsion springs urge the actuator levers 1010, 1014 and
locking members outwardly relative to the handle housing 1004, as a result of which
the locking members are urged into a locking position to prevent further actuation of
actuator levers 1010, 1014 until the thumb catches 1032, 1048 have again been slid
out of their locking position.

Abstract: The present invention provides a probe-car system in which beacons are used to efficiently collect measurement data from an FCD on-vehicle apparatus. There are provided an on-board unit of a probe-car 121 which selects one of second information (1) of measurement information measured during running and road section reference data indicating a measurement section of the measurement information and first information (3) of the measurement information, and uploads it to a beacon 123, and a center apparatus which collects the measurement information from the on-board unit of a probe-car 121 through the beacon 123. In this system, when the probe-car 121 runs along an installation route of beacons 122 and 123 and passes through under the downstream side beacon 123, only the measurement information is transmitted, so that the data amount of the measurement information can be increased, and the detailed measurement information can be transmitted. When the probe-car 121 runs along a bypass, the swept path of the bypass and the measurement information are uploaded to the downstream side beacon 123, so that the center apparatus can utilize it as the measurement information of the bypass.

Abstract: A bone cutting guide block has a saw guide surface
thereon and has a body shaped to conform to the
anterior-medial shape of the proximal left tibia and distal
left femur and also to the anterior-lateral shape of the
proximal right tibia or the distal right femur. The block is
used by placing the curved inner surface adjacent the
anterior-medial or anterior-lateral quadrant of either the
tibia or the femur and utilizing images from a computer
database utilizing an optical tracking system mounted on the
cutting block and referencing to the bone to be cut.
Utilizing the tracking system, the cutting guide is
positioned preferably by hand in the proximal-distal
direction to set the depth of the resection. The cutting
guide surface is, then oriented by hand to the correct
varus-valgus and/or flexion-extension angles and pinned to
the bone. Preferably, the block is pinned using a single pin
in either the correct varus-valgus or flexion-extension
position and then the other of the angles not initially
selected is set by rotating the block about the single pin.
Once the other of the varus-valgus or flexion-extension
angles is determined, additional pins are utilized to fix the
guide in position for use during the resection of the
proximal tibia or distal femur. A second block is provided
conforming to the anterior-lateral left tibia and femur as
well as the anterior-medial shape of the right tibia and
femur.
