The device comprises a collar-shaped cassette body ( 1 ), including a central opening ( 2 ) surrounded by an open-top annular space which is divided by partitions ( 4 ) for dosage containers ( 3 ). The dosage containers ( 3 ) are concealed by a cover ( 11 ), rotatable relative to the cassette body ( 1 ) and provided adjacent to its circular rim with a dispensing aperture ( 13 ), which is coincidab...

Précis Un cotyle expansible et rétractable est conçu pour éliminer les difficultés du positionnement dans l'acétébulum du patient. Ce dispositif comprend un cotyl e hémisphérique partiellement fendu à six endroits, pour faciliter l'expansion par un noyau à emmanchement conique. Le cotyle expansible est conçu pour entrer librement, ou avec une légère pression, dans la cavité osseuse qui a été frais...

Disclosed are polymeric or polymerizable non-formaldehyde containing materials including a crosslinked grid and hydrophilic group chemically attached to the crosslinked grid. The composition further includes a compound having a modulus of elasticity of between about 40 GPa and about 250 GPa, such as mica The composition, applied as a back coating on to a panel provides a substantial degree of sag ...

A double-ended wrench is described having an elongated handle formed substantially nontwisted extending in a longitudinal direction, a first wrench head positioned at one end of the wrench and a second wrench head positioned at the other end thereof. Each wrench head has an orifice with an imaginary axis of wrench rotation. The first wrench head is positioned relative to the second wrench head whe...

The swimming pool comprises a rigid perimeter wall (1) supported by posts (2) and a flexible watertight liner located in the space defined by the wall and fixed to its upper edge. The posts have an externally projecting part (8) extending over all their height and provided with two grooves (9) on either side. Wooden casing panels (10) are slid in the grooves next to two consecutive posts. The post...

A hardfacing material is applied to cutting elements formed on the surface of cutters of an earth-boring bit. The hardfacing material forms the outer surface of the teeth, and also substantially forms scrapers on the shell of each of the cutters. The adding of the hardfacing material to the outer surface of the teeth and the forming of the scrapers is accomplished through welding. The hardfacing m...

The method involves increasing a control signal to the piezoelectric actuator for operating an injector by a defined factor (115) during a cold starting phase for the internal combustion engine. The control signal can be increased for the first engine start-up or after a current drop-out and/or the loss of a stored adaptation value in a controller supplying the piezoelectric actuator with a contro...

A metal detector has transmit and receive coils with an electronic processor (30) to detect received signal variation and with access protected push button, card reader and keyboard code input to start test procedures using a standard metal sphere for calibration and rapid checking and a display to guide the operator.

The tool consists of a strip of cardboard (1A, 1B) with a hole (3) in an intermediate position and at least one weakening for a transverse fold (5) coinciding with said hole, so as to delimit two facing leaves (1A, 1B); the neck of the vial (F) is introduced into the hole (3) and the leaves (1A, 1B) are able to be arranged alongside the neck (C) of the vial and receive the action of the fingers (f...

A micro-controller (MC) receives pulses ( mp0, mp1 , ...) related to the revolving speed of the motor, and generates a stop signal (LS) for disabling the loom when the time between two successive pulses exceeds a predetermined maximum time (ML). Such maximum time (ML) is calculated by the micro-controller as a value that is inversely proportional to the operating speed of the pre-feeder/pre-measur...

A filter device for the depletion of the leukocyte content from blood products including two or more porous elements each made of one or more layers or filtering materials, wherein said porous elements are arranged in the filter device according to decreasing hydrophilicity, from inlet to outlet, of the filtering material constituting said elements.

Vehicle comprising a seat (11), which is fitted in the transverse direction of the vehicle for a passenger traveling sideways, and a seatbelt which is designed for securing said passenger to the seat.
