Abstract: A system for monitoring and private assistance to people includes sensors that detect descriptive parameters of environmental conditions, and sensors and/or devices that monitor a person's position and, optionally, her physiological parameters. In particular, the system includes sensors and/or devices that monitor a person's position at the topological level and generate tracking signals in time and within a digital topological model of the environment; sensors that monitor posture and/or its variations in time and that provide status signals corresponding to predetermined postures and/or signals, indicating posture variations in time, which are processed by a logic control unit and software that evaluates position and posture and its variation in time and that classifies the signals according to predetermined categories of motor and/or postural activities, and that performs a comparison between detected parameters and predefined patterns of execution.

Abstract: A connection system of piping for distribution systems of pressurized or depressurized fluids, the system including: —a connection joint having an insertion portion insertable in the piping so as to seal it and a retention portion, projecting therefrom when the joint is inserted therein; —a retainer suitable to longitudinally retain the connection joint to the piping, said retainer including: i) a retention element which engages the retention portion for constraining the joint longitudinally; and ii) clamping element adapted to exert a clamping force to lock the retention element to the piping.
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for connecting and blocking hollow elements used as piping for fluids, both gaseous and liquids, The hollow elements (11,13) are connectable by plugs or anchoring plates (19) and connecting plate (21), engaging at least one wall of adjacent elements and fixed by anchoring screws (22). At least the connecting plate (21) is provided with protrusions or contact grips (24) designed to physically penetrate into the surface of the elements to be connected when the connecting plate is anchored to the anchoring plate by the screws.
Abstract: A system of elements for the formation of pipelines in units for channeling and distributing a gaseous or liquid fluid that is under pressure or under vacuum. The pipelines are created starting from an extruded section pipe with a four-sided cross section having at least one central longitudinal hole and gripping elements along the corners of its walls. A joint which can be inserted tightly into the hole of consecutive section pipes makes possible their connection with the transmission of fluid. A fixing clamp is mounted on the adjacent ends of the consecutive pipes and engages with the gripping elements to mechanically lock the pipes among one another.
Abstract: A joint for connecting ducts for fluid distribution systems under pressure or under vacuum. The joint element has, on its periphery, a collar (18) having a diameter that is greater than the external diameter of the joint body (15), and which forms a support surface (19), with its foremost frontal-radial face, against the head of the hollow bar, and with its opposite frontal-radial face, a shoulder (20), which interacts with one or more locking brackets (21) to be fixed to the hollow bar.
