An anti-balloon device (14) constituted by a continuous shield (15-24-115) which is rigidly coupled to the body (16) of the feeder and has at least one detachable portion (15b-26-126-126') which, once removed from its active position, allows access to a corresponding and underlying portion of the feeder and/or to the yarn (F) that unwinds from the feeder.

In a vehicle control system of this invention, a CVT ECU does not executes the calculations such as a gear ratio, etc., but simply controls the gear ratio of a CVT on the basis of the target gear ratio and a CVT input torque transmitted from a manager ECU by way of a communication line. Accordingly, when mounting a CVT unit constructed with the CVT and the CVT ECU in a vehicle, the vehicle control...

An absorbent, low-linting fibrous structure comprising an entangled web of synthetic fibers, wherein fibers of at least one of said top surface and said bottom surface are surface bonded, such as by thermal or adhesive bonding. The web is absorbent, has low density, is resistant to linting, and can retain structural integrity at high temperatures. The structure can be made by forming a web of synt...

The present invention relates to a method for writing an optical structure within a workpiece of a dielectric material using FLDM. In a first embodiment system parameters for the FLDM are determined in dependence upon the dielectric material, a predetermined volume element and a predetermined change of the refractive index of the dielectric material within the predetermined volume element. The sys...

A method and apparatus for effecting vital functions notwithstanding the fact that non-vital hardware is employed. A vital processor is implemented using non-vital hardware in the form of a digital computer which may for example be a microprocessor. The vital processor accepts binary input values and, based on a series of logical expressions relating output values to input values, determines the a...
