The present invention provides an improved security alarm system which utilizes a central control panel, alarms, sensors With associated transponders, and arm disarm means such as a keypad. The system is readily expandable from a basic system up to a sophisticated system having a large number of different zones; the arm/disarm means have programmable memory capabilities to free the central control...

: Un outil de mesure incluant un appareil de mesure du champ magnétique terrestre, est intercale sur une garniture reliant un outil de forage à une installation de surface. La méthode permet de s'affranchir de la perturbation affectant le champ magnétique terrestre mesuré et due par exemple à la garniture de forage. Elle comporte l'arrêt de l'outil au cours de sa progression dans le puits en des p...

2099615 9210309 PCTABS00013 Improved non-stick coating systems can be applied to untreated smooth substrate with a primer of a polytetrafluoroethylene having a melt viscosity over 1010Pa Sec plus a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene with hexafluoropropylene or perfluoro alkyl vinyl ether with the melt viscosity of the polytetrafluoroethylene being at least 102Pa Sec higher than that of the copolymer...

A cement admixture is disclosed which is capable of inhibiting slump loss without set retardation to hydraulic cement compositions. The admixture is composed of a mixture comprising a copolymer of maleic anhydride and an oxyalkylene containing monomer, lignosulfonic acid or its salts and an anionic surfactant.

Hollow shaft prosthesis, especially hip prosthesis, having a tubular, bent hollow shaft (1) which tapers with regard to diameter and material cross-section and can be implanted into a bone cavity and whose flexural strength from its end near the joint to its end remote from the joint decreases relatively more greatly than its longitudinal stiffness, in which an essentially plate-shaped area (5) is...

A prosthesis includes a tubular, curved shaft having a shaft cavity, a length, proximal and distal ends; and an outer diameter and a wall thickness both decreasing towards the distal end. The shaft cavity is closed throughout, and the tubular shaft has, in a zone of the distal end, a flattened, essentially plate-shaped wall portion having a length coextensive with the length of the shaft, and a th...

3-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulphonamide sulphate salt (2:1) and pharmaceutically acceptable solvates thereof are disclosed. The compound is of use in the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions, particularly for intranasal formulations, for use in the treatment of conditions associated with cephalic pain, in particular migraine.

There is provided an improved electrically heatable core for an electrically heatable catalytic converter. The core is characterized by corrugated thin metal strips and flat thin metal strips in alternating relation with each other and secured to an electrically conductive central core or tube. Alternating with the corrugated thin metal strips and the flat thin metal strips are areas of brazing me...

2093909 9210889 PCTABS00014 A time division multiplexed system (100) is disclosed in which communication messages among a wide area site (W) and a plurality of substantially scattered local sites (L1-L6) are communicated on a radio frequency channel which is divided into a plurality of time slots (550), wherein at least one of the time slots is further divided into a plurality of sub slots (510-54...

A method of burning solid fuel having low melting point alkaline compositions, such as alkali metal salts, particularly lignite and salty brown coal. The fuel is introduced into the reaction chamber of a circulating fluidized bed reactor, and is mixed prior to introduction to the reaction chamber with a reactant material capable of reacting with the low melting point alkaline compositions of the f...

A body temperature thermometer has a probe head assembly which includes a first sensor, such as a thermopile, for generating a first output signal representative of an amount of infrared radiation impinging thereon. The probe head assembly further includes a waveguide and a surrounding hollow probe for receiving infrared radiation emitted by a biological surface tissue, such as the external ear ca...
