Abstract: The trough-shaped body (22) comprises a floor (22), on which are sidewalls (34) consisting of uprights (30) and top and bottom lengthwise beams (28, 26) forming a latticework structure. The top beams are supported by connecting beams forming sidewalls, windows and doorways (16, 18). The uprights are in a zigzag pattern and are secured by stiff joints to the beams. The mouldings (40) and bars (50) forming the body are glued together, and after the glue has set the cladding and windows are installed using the thick-layer (sic) gluing method. The mouldings can form nodal points with the bars fitted to them, the gaps (52) between their mating faces being filled with glue. The mouldings can be cast or forged, and of aluminium alloy. The floor can be of corrugated sheet-metal with transverse beams transmitting the load to the sidewalls and bottom beams.

Abstract: L'invention a pour objet un dispositif de détection d'une fuite dans un système d'alimentation en carburant d'un moteur à combustin interne, et en particulier, d'un moteur diesel, dispositif dans lequel le carburant est envoyé aux soupapes d'injection sous haute pression. La pression du carburant est mesurée en continu et régulée, de façon habituelle, par un circuit de régulation, par actionnement approprié d'une électrovanne montée dans le conduit de retour du carburant. Lorsque l'unité de commande du moteur à combustion interne détecte l'existence d'un état pré-établi, par exemple un régime de poussée, l'electrovanne (24) est fermée et la variation de pression qui s'instaure est contrôlée cela pour permettre de savoir si cette variation s'effectue de façon prédéterminée ou si la pression augmente de façon prédéterminée. Si ce n'est pas le cas, une fuite est détectée et l'alimentation en carburant est coupée.

Abstract: Cet appareil, destiné à suturer une plaie dans une paroi corporelle, présente un axe s'étendant entre une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale. Un manche est placé au niveau de l'extrémité proximale et une paire d'aiguilles est située au niveau de l'extrémité distale, ces aiguilles étant mobiles entre une position proximale et une position distale. On peut insérer à travers la plaie un dispositif porté par la canule et destiné à manipuler le fil de suture, et faire fonctionner ce dispositif afin qu'il introduise le fil dans les aiguilles, au niveau du côté éloigné de la paroi corporelle. On peut déplacer un taquet sur le manche, dans une direction distale le long de crans multiples. Au premier cran, les aiguilles se déploient; au second cran, le dispositif de manipulation du fil de suture est mis en fonctionnement afin d'enfiler les aiguilles; et au troisième cran, le fil de suture est libéré d'un mécanisme tendeur. Dans un procédé associé, les aiguilles sont enfilées au niveau du côté éloigné de la paroi corporelle puis elles sont retirées de la plaie, permettant d'accéder aux extrémités du fil de suture, du côté rapproché de la paroi corporelle. Le fait d'attacher ensemble les extrémités du fil de suture ferme la plaie.

Abstract: Protected functional initiators have been demonstrated to polymerize dienes and alkenyl substituted aromatics. The resultant living anions were linked with a coupling agent, such as divinylbenzene or tin tetrachloride, to afford a protected functionalized star polymer. Subsequent deprotection afforded a star polymer, with functional groups on the end of each arm of the star. The star polymer could be hydrogenated before or after removal of the protecting groups. The newly liberated functional groups can participate in further polymerization chemistry.

Abstract: Containers (20) for transportation of bulk cargo susceptible to spoilage, that have a controlled temperature profile. The refrigerated containers (20) include opposed insulated (36) side walls (24,35,40) each of which include internal channels (42) for carrying return air from the floor (25) of the container (20) upward into a plenum (50). Each plenum (50) is closed at one end (55), and in fluid communication (70) with a refrigeration unit (72,74) at the other end to supply return air to the refrigeration unit (72,74). Refrigerated air is blown from the refrigeration unit (72,74) into a central air distribution duct (80) that extends longitudinally along the roof (22) of the container (20). The central duct (50) is supplied with a multiplicity of spaced apart apertures (84,84a,84b), and is preferably tapered from a widest point in the vicinity of the refrigeration unit (72,74). Thus, substantially equal refrigerated airflow can be obtained throughout the refrigerated container (20). The container may also be divided into zones (12,14) of different temperatures by interposing a shutter arrangement between channels of each of the side walls and their respective plenum. By controlling return airflow from zones of the container (20), flow of air from the central duct (80) into those zones is also controlled. Alternatively, or in addition, airflow from the central duct may also be controlled by a shutter (64,65,66) arrangement. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method involves performing the transfer of data between at least two user cards (CU1, CU2) in a cellular radio communications system. The cards co-operate respectively with first and second terminals (T1,T2). The first terminal reads common data which has been stored on the first user card and transfers it to the second terminal. The second terminal receives the common data and then replaces the old common data stored within the second user card with the common data which has been received. The transfer stage is preferably performed using a short message service or a data transmission service.

Abstract: A procedure for generating a gas/droplet flow consists of accelerating a gas flow in a gas-dynamic nozzle and while it is accelerating adding a dispersed liquid flow. The resulting two-phase flow is then accelerated in the nozzle, the pressure (P) at the input end of which and the relative concentration (g) of liquid in the two-phase flow are determined by set relationships, where P x g is not more than 0.57 GPa; P is at least 0.5 MPa, and g = Gl/Gg where Gl is the mass flow of liquid and Gg is the mass flow of gas. The gas flow for the procedure is created by at least one turbo-compressor feeding a gas-dynamic nozzle with a mixing chamber for the liquid (water) and gas, and a shaped nozzle channel (7) with its length at least five times its critical cross-section.

Abstract: A polyolefin plaque is made by hot compaction of an assembly of fibres of the oriented polymer. It has been found to be beneficial to subject the fibres to a prior crosslinking process. Hot compaction is then less temperature-sensitive and produces plaques with excellent hot strength properties.
