Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of edging a lens comprising forming a lens-protective transparent coating layer on the surface of the lens. When the lens coated with a transparent coating layer comprising a fluorine-containing elastomer and optionally a fluorine-containing organosilane compound and having a surface energy of less than 15 mJ/m2 is edged, the scratch of lens during handling, the damage of lens caused by chemical contaminants, and lens off-centring phenomena can be prevented. Further, such an edging process requires no adhesive tape, making the process simple, and prevents the contamination of the lens surface. Further, the inventive transparent coating layer makes it possible to measure the diopter of lens exactly owing to its transparency and it is manually removable without a chemical.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une méthode non intrusive de détermination d u temps d'opération et de l'état des contacts d'un disjoncteur haute tension dans les conditions normales ou anormales de service par la localisation angulaire de la direction d'origine du rayonnement électromagnétique des décharges d'arc dan s les chambres de coupure et, de la mesure à basse et à haute fréquence sur très grande plage dynamique des courants de phase. A ce jour, la vérification du bon fonctionnement des contacts d'un disjoncte ur nécessite la mise hors tension de celui-ci afin de pouvoir y accéder. Cette procédure conduit à la mise hors service temporaire de l'équipement, entraînant souven t des coûts inutiles. De plus, il n'existe aucune méthode pour prévenir la détérioration ou la déflagration de celui-ci dans le cas ou l'arc se réamorce lors de son ouverture. Des ouvertures catastrophiques ont été rapportées dans la littérature. La présente invention permet de reconnaître, en temps réel, la présence d'un arc de réamorçage dans les chambres de coupure du disjoncteur et de générer une alarme au besoin afin que des procédures correctrices puissent être prises. Cette approche fait appel à la localisation angulaire de la direction d'origine du rayonnement électromagnétique des décharges d'arc dans les chambres de coupure et facultativement la mesure sur très grande plage dynamique des courants circulant sur les jeux de barres alimentant les différentes phases du disjoncteur. Ell e permet en outre d'établir des statistiques sur le temps d'opération des contacts du disjoncteur, ce qui permet un meilleur suivi.
