Abstract: An assembly for rectifying vertebrae, comprises: two bone anchoring means intended to be implanted on a same vertebra, a triangulation bar and a connection means for connecting the triangulation bar to each bone anchoring means and for holding the bone anchoring means in a given position in order to form, with the triangulation bar connected to the bone anchoring means by means of the connection means, a rigid triangular assembly, the triangulation bar comprising an attachment area for attaching a correction instrument arranged to ensure a rigid attachment in rotation and in translation of the correction instrument on the triangulation bar.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of queues configured to hold tasks and state information associated with such tasks. The system further includes a plurality of listeners configured to query one of the plurality of queues for a task, receive, in response to querying one of the plurality of queues for a task, a task together with state information associated with the task, effect processing of the received task, and communicate a result of the received task to another queue of the plurality of queues, the another queue of the plurality of queues being selected based on the processing of the received task.

Abstract: Apparatus for mixing and packaging liquid materials, comprising a number of assemblies which in turn include a number of modules, each mounted on a frame for lifting, transporting and positioning the associated module.

Abstract: This toilet system (1) includes a bowl (3) and a flush tank (4), which are molded of ceramic in one piece, the upper edge of the bowl (3) including an inverted channel (14) permitting the distribution of the flushing water over the entire surface of the bowl (3) and communicating with the tank (4) via a supply conduit (16), a distributor device (15) being inserted partly in the supply conduit (16) and partly in the adjacent zone of the channel (14). According to the invention, the supply conduit (16) comprises the bottom (17) of the tank (4) and includes bosses (24-25) separated by at least one throat (30) permitting the installation of the distributor (15) on the wall of the supply conduit (16).

Abstract: The invention relates to an arc extinction device for SF6 insulated electrical switchgear.A divisional arc chute 58 comprises a wall 58 with a convex revolution lateral surface, notably spherical, opposite the separation area 20, 22 of the contacts 20, 22, so as to form an acoustic resonator reflecting the pressure waves inwardly, causing the gases to converge towards the center of the sphere. At least one of the contacts is hollow and constitutes an outflow duct, for the gases from the arc chute 18 to a discharge chamber.
