Abstract: A dispenser device (10) for a container (80) containing a product to be dispensed, the device comprising a body (20) for connecting to the container and presenting a chamber (21) that is open at a bottom end of the body and in which a pump (50) is arranged, connected to a top dispenser head (30). The dispenser device also comprises a driver (40) that is suitable for being moved so as to cause the dispenser head (30) to move between a storage position in which the dispenser head is substantially retracted inside the body (20), and a dispensing position in which the dispenser head projects beyond a top end (23) of the body. The dispenser device further comprises a sealing diaphragm (70) that defines a top end of the chamber and that presents a movable end (71) that is connected to the pump (50), and a stationary end (72) that is suitable for being connected to the container (80).

Abstract: The device comprises: a casing (10) having an open end (10?); a composition support (12) that is movable in the casing between a retracted position and an extended position; and a control piece (16) that is suitable for being moved so as to cause the support to move. The device further comprises first and second magnetic elements (20, 22) that are secured to the support (12) and to the control piece (16) respectively. When the piece is in its first position and when the support is in its retracted position, the magnetic forces between these elements hold the support. When the control piece is moved, the magnetic forces are reduced and enable the support to move towards its extended position.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a retractable covering system suitable for covering a handling element protruding from the neck of a product reservoir, said system comprising an assembly ring defining a longitudinal axis and an axial direction; and a cap translatable along the longitudinal axis relative to the assembly ring between a deployed position, in which it extends substantially protruding relative to said ring, and a retracted position, in which it is at least partially retracted relative to said ring; said system further comprising: an elastic element biasing the cap toward the deployed position; and a reversible locking device to lock the cap in the retracted position.

Abstract: The device comprises: a casing (10) having an open end (10?); a composition support (12), that is movable in the casing between a retracted position and an extended position; and an actuator (16) that is suitable for being moved so as to cause the support to move. The device further comprises first and second magnetic elements (20, 22) that are secured to the support and to the casing respectively. When the support is in its retracted position, the magnetic elements generate magnetic forces between them, which magnetic forces are suitable for holding said support in its retracted position. When the actuator is moved, it causes the support to move, moving the magnetic elements apart from each other, thereby reducing the magnetic forces in such a manner as to enable the support to move towards its extended position.

Abstract: The invention concerns a composition based on a mixture of eugenol and cinnamaldehyde, as food additive for feeding ruminants. The composition may be incorporated in a food additive or a salt block. The eugenol and the cinnamaldehyde may be natural or identical natural constituents. Administering the composition of the food additive increases meat production and milk production.

Abstract: A source-synchronous parallel interface divides a wide data bus into clock-groups including a sub-group of the data lines and a clock line carrying a copy of the transmit clock. The traces in a clock-group are located physically close together to minimize skew between the signals carried on the traces of the clock-group. Deskew logic on the receiver compensates for skew between received clock-group signals.

Abstract: A food additive or feed ration for an animal contains an active agent including at least one capsaicinoid. The additive or ration is prepared by a method which includes the step of cold-state atomizing of granulating a liquid mixture containing an encapsulation fat, the active agent including at least one capsaicinoid. Solid particles of the mixture are thus produced. The cold-state atomization or the granulation act on the nature of the encapsulating fat, on the particle size, and on the temperature of the atomization step in order to control the capsaicinoid release kinetics in the digestive tract of animals.

Abstract: A powdery product is based on one or several plant extracts for animal feed or veterinary medicine. The plant extract(s) are in the form of hydrophobic liquid, adsorbed and/or absorbed in spheroid precipitated silica granules of average size ranging between 90 ?m and 500 ?m approximately. The spheroid precipitated silica granules containing the absorbed plant extract(s) are coated with a layer of protective coating material. The coating is performed by a fluidized airbed process, enabled by the use of the spheroid precipitated silica granules.

Abstract: The present invention provides phased arrays using monolithic technology of diffusions over whole wafers for working in millimetric wave frequency bands. The reflector array includes a plurality of metallizations connected together by diodes whose capacity can be varied. Thus direct control of reactive impedances is obtained. With the metallized strips placed at a distance substantially equal to .lambda./4 from a ground plane, it is possible to control locally the phase of the reflected signal.

Abstract: The main object of the invention is an array of optically-controlled elements for the diffusion of electromagnetic energy. The invention pertains to an array capable of diffracting the electromagnetic energy which illuminates it, certain elements of the said array being capable of modulation. The device according to the invention comprises photodetectors which can be used for the optical modulation of the emitting/reflecting elements, whether diffusing or diffracting. The optical modulation provides for the individual control of each radiating element up to very high frequencies. Furthermore, the device according to the invention can be used to reduce the complexity of an array by doing away with the control wiring. The invention can be applied chiefly to the making of radar-testing devices, for example the simulation of bright points, the ultra-high-frequency tomography of the human body and the making of beacons.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a conical scanning process in a radar antenna.The antenna comprises a principal parabolic reflector (1) and a primary rear-feed source (2) fed by a circular waveguide (3) and displaced with respect to the focus of the parabolic reflector (1). The conical scanning is produced by the rotary movement of the parabolic reflector (1) about the source (2), the said source (2) and the circular guide (3) remaining fixed.The present invention is applicable to tracking radars operating in the millimeter waveband.

Abstract: The system according to the invention utilizes a transmission--reception radar antenna protected by a radome and an interrogation antenna having at least one set of two networks engaged laterally on the outer wall of the radome. The networks are arranged symmetrically to an axis of revolution of the radome. Supply means supply the interrogation antenna with an ultra-high frequency interrogation signal and the switching and phase-displacement means and the networks constitute an electronic scanning antenna.
