Title: Polymeric tape with biocide
IPC: F16L57/00
Filed: 1988-07-22
Granted: 1993-09-08
Abstract: A polymeric tape intended for use underground near service lines with a biocide incorporated into the polymer. The biocide's presence in the tape after burial discourages vegetative, fungal or other biological growth near the tape. Specifically tree root growth destructive to pipes is prevented. The biocide is incorporated into the plastic tape or the plastic coating on the metallic layer of a detectable tape. The biocide is incorporated in an effective amount to have biocidal activity on the surface of the tape or in increased amounts which leach from the tape.

Abstract: Un revêtement métallique pour plafonds se compose d'une grille de support (2, 3) et de cassettes (6). La grille de support comprend des étais longitudinaux (2) et des traverses (3) pourvus de protubérances (26) sur lesquelles reposent les cassettes (6) de manière étanche. Afin d'obtenir un agencement des cassettes (6) qui satisfasse en même temps des critères esthétiques et d'étanchéité, les protubérances (26) présentent des barrettes verticales (34) sur lesquelles repose le bord à gradin (88) des cassettes (6). Des éléments d'étanchéité (44) sont en outre agencés sur les protubérances (26) et s'appuient contre les cassettes (6) à l'état monté. On obtient ainsi un agencement mécanique sûr par rapport aux cassettes (6) et une étanchéité suffisante des éléments d'étanchéité (44).

Abstract: Machine à tricoter sur métier chaîne dont les barres à passettes (1, 2, 3), conformément à un modèle, peuvent être réglées à l'aide de moteurs de déplacement pas à pas (16, 17, 18) qui reçoivent les informations sur les déplacements sous la forme d'une impulsion de déplacement à partir d'une mémoire à modèles d'un appareil de commande. Pour calculer et corriger la position des barres à passettes (1, 2, 3) de la machine à tricoter arrêtée en position basse, à chaque barre à passettes est associé l'indicateur (20, 21, 22) d'un initiateur électrique d'approche, dont le capteur (23, 24, 25) est disposé contre un curseur de mesure (26) se déplaçant dans la direction du mouvement des barres à passettes, ce curseur pouvant se déplacer au moyen d'un moteur de mesure pas à pas (28) dans le domaine de déplacement de l'indicateur à partir d'une position de départ correspondant à la position zéro de la barre à passettes. Il est prévu un capteur d'impulsions ayant pour rôle de compter les pas du moteur pas à pas (28) dans ce déplacment jusqu'à ce que l'indicateur et le capteur soient recouverts, et le résultat obtenu avec ce capteur est comparé, à l'aide d'un comparateur, à l'impulsion définissant le déplacement selon le modèle et prise dans la mémoire à modèles. La différence calculée par le comparateur est communiquée en tant qu'impulsion de correction au moteur pas à pas (16, 17, 18) concerné.

Abstract: A direct method for detecting very low levels of coliform contamination in products for human consumption comprises contacting the microorganisms with a methylumbelliferone substrate. The substrate is hydrolyzed into methylumbelliferone by an enzyme given off by the microorganisms. Hydrolysis is accelerated by sodium lauryl sulfate, which renders the microorganisms more permeable to the substrate, the enzyme, or both. The methylumbelliferone is detected by its fluorescence, either in solution or on an agar medium supporting microcolonies formed from individual microorganisms. <IMAGE>

Title: Vehicle window antenna
IPC: H01Q1/12
Filed: 1989-02-23
Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: The object is to improve a known vehicle window antennae, having a dipole and a conductor running parallel thereto, as a counterweight to the dipole, such that the antennae is shorter, the conductor requires no direct connection to the vehicle bodywork and such that the conductor configuration is relatively simple and can easily be implemented. The solution is for each of the dipole halves (13, 14) to consist of a V-shaped conductor and for the dipole halves, having a geometric length l1 =  lambda /4, to be connected to one another at their mutually facing ends, via a straight line piece (17). The conductor (18), running parallel to the longitudinal extent of the dipole (12), is straight and is insulated from the dipole and from the vehicle bodywork. The conductor has a length l4 <  lambda /2, where  lambda corresponds to the mean operating wavelength. A preferred field of application for the vehicle window antennae is a UHF radio antennae for a radio telephone. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for electrochemical treatment of porous building materials, particularly for drying and re-alkalization
IPC: B01D43/00
Filed: 1990-05-07
Granted: 1993-07-28
Abstract: An electro-osmotic dewatering procedure is disclosed for removing water from saturated, porous building materials, such as concrete, brick and the like. A controlled, cyclical voltage is applied to an electrode system, to effect osmotic migration of water from an anode electrode (11), located within the structure or in contact with it, to a cathode electrode (13), typically spaced from the structure but in electrical circuit with it. The cycle of operations includes a first energy pulse in a direction (17) to effect osmotic migration, followed by a substantially shorter but definite pulse of reverse polarity (18) to prevent or minimize formation of insulating gas films and/or corrosion products. Transition from the primary pulse to the reverse pulse, and from the reverse pulse to the subsequent primary pulse, is at a controlled rate to permit discharge of stored voltage, as a function of inherent capacitance of the system, and to avoid generation of RFI radiations. For treating reinforced concrete, cycling is preferably controlled automatically, as a function of the monitored passivity or non-passivity of the internal reinforcement, so as to avoid creation of corrosion products. Certain aspects of the invention are applicable to other treatments of reinforced concrete, such as realkalization.

Abstract: A special problem when displaying transmitted colour television pictures is the blurring of the colour transitions. The reason for this is the necessary narrow bandwidth with the interleaved transmission of the luminance signal and of the chrominance signals. To improve the colour contours, a method is presented which detects the turn-over point of a signal transition and thus the accurate position of an edge of the chrominance signal. The originally appearing edge of the chrominance signal is replaced by a steepened edge which has the same position. The steepness of the original signal transition has no influence on the group delay of the system. In addition, a television set for carrying out the method is presented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for establishing point-to-point full duplex communication between two stations served by a local area network (LAN) or connected by a communication link. One station initially transmits a request message through the link. The request message indicates that a first station is available for full duplex communication and also serves as a test to determine whether any non-full duplex devices are present along the point-to-point link between the first station and a second station. A second station receives the request message and responds by transmitting a reply message which indicates its availability for full duplex communication. Subsequently, full duplex communication may commence. The two stations periodically exchange additional messages to continuously verify that full duplex communication is operating properly.
