  • Patent number: 7930774
    Abstract: System for creating a liquid motion in a pool comprising: a means for introducing intermittently a gas into the liquid a gas flow means adapted for increasing the pressure of the gas, said increase resulting in gas flow and a control means for controlling the flow of the gas at the end opening of the end piping assembly at least in function of the height of the liquid.

  • Publication number: 20100158611
    Abstract: The wave making device comprises a caisson connected to an air blower and to a control valve mechanism comprising an exhaust valve adapted to move between a closed position and an open position, and a system adapted to move the exhaust valve and to maintain said exhaust valve into said position. The control valve mechanism is adapted to ensure continuously an air pressure within the caisson at least equal to the atmospheric pressure.

  • Publication number: 20100113301
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a method for the identification and/or the quantification of a target compound obtained from a sample, preferably a biological sample, comprising the steps of putting into contact the target compound with a capture molecule in order in order to allow a specific binding between said target compound with a capture molecule, said capture molecule being fixed upon a surface of a solid support according to an array comprising a density of at least 20 discrete regions per cm2, each of said discrete regions being fixed with one species of capture molecules, performing a reaction leading to a precipitate formed at the location of said binding, determining the possible presence of precipitate(s) in discrete region(s), and correlating the presence of the precipitate(s) at the discrete region(s) with the identification and/or a quantification of said target compound.

  • Patent number: 5320449
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device intended to create a motion in a liquid, in particular at the surface thereof, this liquid being contained within a tank defined by one or more walls, in particular in a swimming pool, this device comprising an element in contact with the liquid in which, in particular at the surface of which, a motion is to be created. The device according to the invention comprises, as an element, a floating or submerged assembly which is not solidly fixed to a wall of the tank, the said assembly comprising two bodies (1,5) mutually connected by at least one means (7), this means (7) being intended to move the bodies (1,5) relative to one another in a manner such as to create a motion in the liquid, in particular at the surface thereof.
