The remanufacturing method provides the liquid container structured to include: a liquid reservoir assembly configured to store the liquid; a liquid feeder configured to supply the liquid stored in the liquid reservoir assembly to the liquid ejection device; a sensor unit located in the upstream of the liquid feeder and configured to detect a level of the liquid stored in the liquid container; and a bubble trap module located in the upstream of the sensor unit and in the downstream of the liquid reservoir assembly and configured to trap bubbles included in the liquid. The remanufacturing method forms an inlet to communicate either with the bubble trap module or with a pathway of the liquid in the downstream of the bubble trap module.

Abstract: Method and systems for single sign on with dynamic authentication levels is described. The method include receiving a data request for access to a second application, where the user is already authenticated to the first application at a first authentication level. Application information about the authentication level necessary to access the second application is retrieved. In response to a request, the user provides the further authentication data for accessing the second application. The type of the further authentication data required is based on the first authentication level and the minimum authentication level necessary to access the second application. The user is then authenticated to the second application at the minimum authentication level necessary to access the second application.

The securing assembly preferably includes an indicator for providing a visual indication whether or not the corresponding limiter is blown. The base is preferably constructed and arranged such that the indicator is visible and accessible to facilitate removal of the blown limiter.

Abstract: A content delivery system, such as a Just in Time Training (JITT) system which allows the broadcast of multimedia messages to recipients or users. The JITT system identifies the multimedia capabilities as well as the capabilities of the service provider and recipient device for each user and uses this profile information to determine an appropriate messaging format to use to send the message to each user. User involvement is used to determine the functionality and content type delivery for each user mobile device. This profiling may be performed in any of a number of different ways, including smart echo, caller-ID initiated (CIDI) and SMS initiated (SMSI) profiling. In smart echo profiling, the user sends the JITT system a multimedia sample from the mobile device, and the JITT system then sends messages and content to the mobile devise using the same format.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a system for extracting and analyzing radioelectric signals of interest. It includes an integer number N of channels. Each channel Vi includes a receiver linked to an analog signals digital acquisition device delivering a digital signal SNi. Each channel Vi includes a bank of polyphase filters, extracting digital signals SEi from the digital signal SNi. The digital signals SEi each have a smaller frequency bandwidth than that of the digital signal SNi. The system includes at least one extracted digital signals distribution device suitable for receiving the digital signals SEi and distributing SEi to one or more processing and storage units. The processing and storage units are suitable for the analysis, characterization and storage of the digital signals received. Embodiments of the invention apply to the system for the radio-monitoring of radioelectric emissions in real time or in deferred time.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a safety lighter intended to initiate the combustion of a pyrotechnic device, the lighter including a lighter body (10) having a cylindrical void (12) of axis XX?, and a pyrotechnic slide-in module (14) including pyrotechnic means (70, 74, 30) of initiating the combustion of the pyrotechnic device, the pyrotechnic slide-in module (14) being able to be displaced in the cylindrical void, from a so-called safety position (Ps), providing isolation between the pyrotechnic means of the slide-in module and the pyrotechnic device to be initiated, to a so-called initiation position (Pi), intended to provoke the combustion of the pyrotechnic device.

Abstract: A flexible bag transport system for transporting flexible filling and sealing station which includes a pair of holding clamp assemblies opposed to each other for holding the top end of a bag. The first clamp assembly is supported by a first elongated carrier and a second clamp assembly is supported by a second elongated carrier that is parallel to the first carrier. Clamping assemblies remain apart from each other and the bags are transported and are displaced toward each other to permit the bag to be opened during filling of the bag. One of the elongated carriers supporting the clamping assemblies has an adjustable mechanism so that the clamp assemblies can be adjusted with respect to each other without requiring adjustment of the remaining components of the transport system.

Abstract: Liquid packs provided with liquid leading members are stored in a container case that is constituted by fitting a case main body portion and a lid case in fitting portions and, support portions, which positions the liquid leading members so as to be opposed to liquid introducing members attached to a cartridge inserting portion, are provided on a front surface of the container case, the fitting portions are arranged in a state in which the fitting portions traverses the support portions, and space portions having a gap larger than a gap formed in the fitting portions are formed near the support portions in the fitting portions. In this way, liquid flowing through the fitting portions due to the capillarity is retained by the space portions and never flows to the fitting portions further extending from the space portions.
