Abstract: A method is provided for managing the level of charge of at least two batteries respectively powering a first and a second device. The devices are able to cooperate physically with one another via a modular interface, and the method includes a step of transferring energy from one of the batteries to the other of the batteries, the transferring step being implemented as a function of a level of charge of at least one of the batteries.

Abstract: A power supply base for a payment terminal is provided with a housing having an opening for receiving a memory card. The power supply base includes a guide for guiding the payment terminal towards a position wherein it can receive the power supply, the guide including at least one guiding part shaped in such a way as to enable the insertion thereof into the opening of the payment terminal.

Abstract: An electronic payment terminal is disclosed including a display screen including first and second terminals for receiving display data, a first processor connected to the first terminal and adapted for supplying display data to the first terminal at a first rate, and a second processor connected to the second terminal and adapted for supplying display data to the second terminal at a second rate lower than the first rate and adapted for supplying to the display screen a signal for the selection of the display data received at one of the first and second terminals. The second processor is further connected to the first processor and is adapted to send to the first processor a signal for authorizing or forbidding the transmission of display data to the display screen.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic system comprising a printed circuit contained in a package. The system comprises a protection device comprising conducting tracks carried by the printed circuit and each having a free end; a first integrated circuit connected to the conducting tracks and adapted for detecting a variation in the capacitance seen by each conducting track; and a second integrated circuit, optionally merged with the first integrated circuit, comprising a configurable memory for selecting certain of the conducting tracks. The second integrated circuit is adapted for determining that an authorized or unauthorized access has occurred on the basis of the detection of the variation of the capacitance seen by at least one of the selected conducting tracks.

Abstract: An electronic payment device is provided, which includes a chip card reader. The device has a housing able to receive and hold a portable telephone, a connector for connection with the portable telephone, and a data processor able to receive information relating to a payment and to exchange data with a remote server via a telephone communication implemented by said portable telephone.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic system comprising a printed circuit (30) contained in a package. The system comprises a protection device (32) comprising conducting tracks (74, P1, P2) carried by the printed circuit and each having a free end; a first integrated circuit (70) connected to the conducting tracks and adapted for detecting a variation in the capacitance seen by each conducting track; and a second integrated circuit (71), 74 optionally merged with the first integrated circuit, comprising a configurable memory (80) for selecting certain of the conducting tracks. The second integrated circuit is adapted for determining that an authorized or unauthorized access has occurred on the basis of the detection of the variation of the capacitance seen by at least one of the selected conducting tracks.

Abstract: A device (1) fills a flexible pouch (100) with medicinal fluids. The pouch is mounted with its distal end (113) upward and attached to a filling infuser (110) which is supported in a supporting bore (121). A neck end of the supply container (200) which carries a resilient cap (202) is inserted into the bore such that the filling infuser pierces the cap. A flexible bladder (31) or a squeeze bulb (33) is connected with an air inlet (116) of the filling infuser to inject pressurized air into the supply container and accelerate the transfer of medicinal liquids from the supply container to the flexible pouch.
