Abstract: The method for automated manufacturing of an electronic circuit tolerant to faults by temporal redundancy of maximum order N, comprising a step implemented by computer, according to which every memory cell of the circuit is replaced by a memory block (40) comprising a chain of memory cells in series, and a selection block which, in a temporal redundancy mode of order n1, n1?[1,N], selects as output data of the memory block the majority content of n1 cells of the block, and can furthermore deliver a fault signal if the contents of the n1 cells differ. Said method is characterized in that the inserted memory blocks allow a dynamic switching from a temporal redundancy mode of order n1 to any other mode of order n2. Said method for N=2, in association with a mechanism for recording with roll-back, allows an error with only a double redundancy instead of a triple redundancy.

Abstract: The invention relates to a molecular distillation apparatus of the type comprising a metallic conical rotor (12) rotatably driven and fed in its center with a liquid to be distilled, a vacuum bell (10) defining an enclosure housing the cone and means for inductively heating the rotor which are located beneath and in proximity to the latter.According to the invention, the heating means comprise at least two concentric inductors (100a, 100b, 100c) supplying different thermal power densities to homologous regions of the rotor and an inner inductor (100a) supplies a greater thermal power density to the rotor than the power density supplied to the rotor by an outer inductor (100c).The invention also relates to a process for manufacturing an assembly of a rotor and inductors for such an apparatus.

Abstract: The apparatus comprises an endless conveyor band (2) of insulating material on which are mounted at even distances apart receptacles (7) composed of a metal adapted to receive separate portions of a dish to be cooked and inductors (10a, 10b) disposed below the upper reach (6) of the conveyor. The inductors have a diameter roughly equal to one-half of the diameter of the receptacles and are disposed in at least two rows in the direction of movement of the conveyor (2) symmetrically relative to the axis of movement of the receptacles. The inner edges of the inductors (10a, 10b) are located beyond a vertical plane containing the axis of movement of the receptacles (7) so as to insure a homogeneous heating of the receptacles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a drilling system. It includes, in combination, a drilling derrick by means of which a string of drill rods can be suspended from a hoist, a motorized drilling head at the end of the hoist, means for bringing a drill rod into position to be added to the drill string from a stack, a motor to drive the hoist, a reversible control for the said hoist motor, sensors for determining the state of the system, and a programmable robot to supply the set points to the hoist motor control according to signals furnished by the said system state sensors.
