Abstract: This invention relates to a method for managing active safety for an automatically operating machine comprising a work surface and a work tool displaced according to a pre-established work program. The method consists of dividing (100) the work surface into several zones and, during the work program cycle and in response to detection (200) of an operator's intrusion into a first zone when the tool is active in a second zone, also consists of carrying out at least one of the following actions: keeping (210) the tool's programmed displacement at the normal speed if the tool's displacement is programmed in a zone not adjacent to the first one, keeping (220) the tool's programmed displacement at reduced speed if the tool's displacement is programmed in a zone adjacent to the first one and modifying (230) the work program if the tool's displacement is programmed in the first zone so that the tool's work can be continued in a zone other than the first one.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a microemulsion of water or water and another additive, especially alcohol or amine, in a liquid fuel, in the presence of a surface active agent. Such microemulsions are intended to be used as fuel in an engine or a burner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a current transformer for a high-tension installation, said transformer including a primary winding, a secondary winding and a magnetic circuit, said primary winding including a primary turn suspended coaxial inner and outer conductors in an insulation chamber which contains a dielectric fluid. The secondary winding (28) and the magnetic circuit (27) are disposed around the primary turn (6) on the outside of the chamber. Electrical continuity of the insulation chamber past an insulating seal (24) therein is provided by a jumper (29) which passes round the outside of the secondary winding and the magnetic circuit. The invention applies in particular to very high tension installations.
