Patent EP-0733496-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SINOPOLI ITALO MARZIALE
IPC: B60C9/00
Filed: 1996-03-18
Abstract: A radial medium radial truck (RMT) tire has belt or breaker plies which are reinforced by organic reinforcement cords or filaments. In one embodiment, organic monofilaments are used in the belt or breaker plies which have the following characteristics: at least 2,000 denier (2,200 dTex), a tenacity of at least 3.5 g/denier (31 cN/Tex), an initial modulus of at least 30 g/denier (265 cN/Tex) and a shrinkage of at most 6%. When an organic polymer reinforcement is used in the top belt or breaker in the belt package of a tire, scrapping of tires during a retreading operation because of corrosion is greatly reduced. In addition, acceptance for retreadability is increased because of reduced top belt or breaker damage, allowing for easier preparation for the retreading.

A sleeve having a longitudinal slot is rotatably connected to the needle shield. The sleeve is capable of rotating about the needle shield to an open position where the longitudinal slot in the sleeve and the longitudinal opening in the needle shield are sufficiently aligned to allow passage of the needle cannula so that the needle shield can be rotated from the first position to the second position. The sleeve is rotatable about the needle shield, to a position which blocks the longitudinal opening of the needle shield. Color safety indicator means for visually indicating the sleeve is rotated to a position which blocks the longitudinal opening of the needle shield is provided.

Abstract: A smoke detector (30) comprising an ionization smoke sensor (10) as well as a further smoke sensor such as a photoelectric sensor (50) is provided, the sensors being disposed in an internal volume (40) of a common housing (32). The photoelectric sensor (50) includes a radiation source (44), such as a light emitting diode, which radiates energy R into volume (40) primarily in a radial direction (44a). In operation, radiation (R) is scattered by smoke particles present in volume (40), a portion (R') of which scattered radiation falls upon sensor (50), which in response thereto outputs a signal indicative of the level of smoke particles in volume (40). Reflections in the volume (40) are reduced by the grooved surfaces (38) as well as a shield (52) which also serves to optically isolate sensor (50) from source (44) thus ensuring that only scattered radiation reaches sensor (50). A multi-sensor smoke detector is thus provided which has a compact construction and low background noise.

Abstract: The display system includes a symbol display generator (10), a trace smoothing circuit (16) and an image memory (18,18'). The symbol generator provides the co-ordinates of successive traced points. The smoothing circuit is designed to calculate coefficients belonging to a trace for a group G of N x M point surrounding a point with co-ordinates (X,Y) after calculating coefficients belonging to the trace for another group (G') of N x M points for co-ordinates (X'Y') previously provided by the symbol generator. The system has a control circuit for sending to the image memory, coefficients uniquely belonging to the points of group (G') which do not belong to the group (G), as a function of the vector connecting the point (X',Y') to the point (X,Y). The coefficients belonging to the group G are calculated whilst taking into account the coefficients previously calculated for the point which are common to both groups G and G'. In memory of N x M cells, are preserved for the next calculation chain, the calculated coefficients belonging to group G.
