20110075316SYSTEM FOR RECOVERING AND USING THE ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE GENERATED BY LIGHTNING - A system for the recovery and use of the electrostatic charge present in the atmosphere during storms generated by lightning, transforming natural energy into electrical energy useful for consumption, and providing the necessary protection for lives and property against electro-atmospheric phenomena, has an ecological lightning conductor, an electrical conductor connected by one end to the low-frequency electrode of the lightning conductor, and an enhanced intelligent earth wire, whereto the conductor is joined by its other end. The conductor includes a series of probes and magnetic field detectors which will send information to the microprocessor and from there to the mainframe computer. The control device allows regulation of the earth resistance, thereby generating more or less charge, diverting the energy to the accumulators or to earth through dissipator electrodes.03-31-2011

20080251619Shredder for Shredding Recyclable Industrial Waste - The invention relates to a shredder comprising a hopper in which industrial waste is deposited. The base of the hopper is equipped with a waste-shredding rotor, while one of the longitudinal edge thereof, which are parallel to the axis of the hopper outlet, is equipped with a longitudinal row of fixed blades which are distributed uniformly along said edge. According to the invention, spaces are provided between the aforementioned blades to enable the passage of moving blades which are mounted to the rotor by means of supports. In addition, half of the fixed blades are disposed at a greater height than the other half, using an alternating arrangement, such that the moving blades act first on one half of the blades and immediately thereafter on the other half, thereby producing a scissors-type effect which facilitates cutting and extends the useful life of such blades.10-16-2008
20090114519Process and Equipment for the Treatment of Waste Materials - A chamber for treating waste material includes a substantially closed chamber which is horizontally elongate with a conveyor provided within the chamber oriented generally horizontally and defining an upper portion and a lower portion with a series of paddles arranged to move material along the upper portion of the conveyor. A material supporting surface formed of ceramic material is provided between the upper portion and the lower portion of the conveyor. The material supporting surface is generally U-shaped and forms a channel through which the paddles move along the upper portion of the conveyor. The material supporting surface is carried by a plurality of metal horizontal support members which are cooled by a fluid. The paddles are asymmetrically oriented with respect to the conveyor.05-07-2009

20100033465Display Device with Secure Matrix Screen - The technical field of the invention is that of secure display devices. The latter comprise at least one matrix screen, electronics for controlling the screen, a fault-detection circuit and electronic means for managing the display device, the screen consisting of pixels placed in lines and in columns, the lines of pixels being controlled by an electronic “drivers” card comprising electronic means arranged so as to generate a first electronic signal representative of the correct or incorrect operation of the said electronic “drivers” card, the fault-detection circuit arranged so as to generate, from the first signal, a second signal processed by the electronic means for managing the display device. The display device according to the invention comprises an analogue circuit for electronic quenching of the image controlled by the fault-detection circuit so that, when the first electronic signal is representative of the incorrect operation of the card, the analogue quenching circuit causes the erasure of the image on the screen, the screen then being uniformly monochrome. It is possible, for this purpose, to act on the control voltage of the counter-electrode.02-11-2010
20100201665Display Device Including a Liquid Crystal Screen with Secured Display - The general field of the invention is that of display devices comprising a liquid-crystal matrix screen composed of elementary pixels, said screen comprising at least a first electrode used as voltage reference and called the “backplane”, a second electrode in the form of a matrix electronic network delivering the drive voltages for controlling the pixels and control electronics for said electrodes, said screen being used in the so-called “normally black” mode, that is to say that in the absence of applied voltages, the optical transmission of the pixels is substantially zero. In the device according to the invention, the “backplane” drive voltage is a variable periodic voltage, the amplitude of variation of this voltage being sufficient so that in the absence of voltage on the second electrode, the optical transmission of the pixels is sufficient to be detected by an observer.08-12-2010
20110115388LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE LIGHTING DEVICE WITH REGULATED POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT - The invention relates to lighting devices with light-emitting diodes organized in ramps arranged in parallel, each ramp including a certain quantity of light-emitting diodes arranged in series, the ramps being powered by a DC voltage of several tens of volts, called high voltage, the high voltage being generated by a step-up converter circuit from a low DC voltage of a few volts. The value of the voltage is controlled by the duty cycle of the step-up converter circuit, and the voltage is servocontrolled to a constant average value by a servocontrol device controlling the duty cycle. Each servocontrol device has several operating modes defined by a particular electronic addressing of the high voltage or by a defined number of ramps of lit diodes. To optimize the operation of the lighting device, the step-up converter circuit has discontinuous conduction and the servocontrol device includes several servocontrol electronic circuits linked to an electronic multiplexer, and each servocontrol electronic circuit being dedicated to a particular operating mode, the electronic characteristics of the servocontrol electronic circuits depending on the operating mode. The servocontrol electronic circuit is operational only when the operating mode is selected.05-19-2011

20080219963Composition Containing Micronutrients With Improved Anti-Oxidant Activity And The Use Thereof - Compositions in fine powder form that can be obtained by means of a dry co-grinding process of an at least ternary mixture consisting of an active substance, a carrier and at least one auxiliary co-grinding substance, wherein the active substance is constituted by one or more micronutrient substances with particular antioxidant activity. Such compositions have shown a significant increase in active substance antioxidant power in comparison to solutions of equal active substance content. Said effect is particularly useful for uses for active substances included in antioxidant compositions in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and dietary-nutritional fields.09-11-2008
