Abstract: The switching array (60) with n inputs and p outputs, where p is greater than n, comprises a plurality of switching organs, each having one input and at least two outputs, and allowing the transfer of a signal applied to the organ input to only one output. Each input (E1, ..., E5) of the array is connectable to one of r outputs, eg. (E1) to (S1, ..., S5), among p outputs. The switching organs (101, 102, 103, 104) are in the form of integrated circuits for superhigh frequency domain, and are mounted so that, when a switching is carried out and the same input is connected to another output, the losses due to traversed switching organs remain of substantially the same value. The array comprises, for each input, a set of switching organs (621, 622) for connecting one input and r outputs, and for each output, a set of switching organs (62'1, 62'2) for connecting r inputs to one output. The sets of switching organs associated with outputs are mounted in opposition to those associated with inputs, but are of analogous structure. The application of switching array is for replacing an electronic element broken down and connected to one output of the array, by another element connected to another output of the array.

A woman's breast bends the support member outwardly along the bendable line to a first position and the shock-absorbing resilient member is extended from a rest position to a first extended position and a lower end of the brassiere is pressed against the body. The breast then applies a load on the support member and to bend the support member further outwardly from the first position to a second position and the resilient member is extended from the first extended position to a second extended position. The member and the support member provide a pulling force that is greater than the load of the breast an d the support member is then bent inwardly past the first position and the resilient member is retracted.

Abstract: New techniques are presented for detection methods employed in the control, automation and operation of scale Model railroad layouts that permit new types of capabilities to be incorporated into the railroad. The invention allows reliable detection of transponder devices on a model railroad layout using conveniently low values of transponder current pulses. Processing of the detected current pulse timing and direction characteristics and then comparing these with the expected or reference current direction for the layout section allows us to reject echo pulses caused by common impedances in the layout wiring. This method overcomes the pulse echoes that have caused the failure of previous attempts to reduce this technology to practice. Allowing additional acknowledgment pulses synchronized to any transponder address sent can further enhance Transponding technology. This provides extra communication capabilities that are not limited by the rate or timing of addresses sent to any particular transponder device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tap device for containers, comprising an insert element (16) for tightly sealing the tap opening of the container, a tap pipe (36) which is mounted in the insert element (16) in such a way that it can be displaced between a transport position and a tap position, a tap (54) which is situated at an outer end of the tap pipe (54), an inlet opening (80) which is situated at an inner end of the tap pipe and which has means for preventing liquid from inside the container from entering when the tap pipe is in the transport position and which the liquid from inside the container can enter when the tap pipe is in its tap position. The aim of the invention is to improve a tap device of this type in such a way that it is suitable for a high pressure built up inside the container and in particular, in such a way that the inlet opening remains secured against incoming liquid from the inside of the container in the transport position, even with a high pressure building up inside the container. To this end, a sealing body (110) on the tap pipe seals the inlet opening (80) in the transport position and said sealing body (110) can be released from the tap pipe when the tap pipe (36) moves from the transport position into the tap position.
