Abstract: The invention describes a pipe for carrying fluid, including thermally insulated steel pipe sections of a type including an outer tubular shell, an inner cylindrical shell of smaller diameter, in the inner shell being sealingly welded to the outer shell at each of the ends of the pipe sections. It is characterized in that at each joint, the ends of the two inner shells are welded to each other, and a sleeve links to the ends of the outer shells so that when traction, compression or bending forces are exerted on the pipe, the said sleeve transmits these forces to the outer shells.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plate-type heat exchanger comprising a stack (1) of plates (2) for heat exchange between fluids which circulate between each other, said stack being placed within a pressure vessel (3). The invention is characterized in that it comprises rigid means for suspension of said stack (1) from said vessel (3) at the level of at least a first collector circuit which comprises a first connecting box (21; 23) at the upper end of the stack (1) and guides a first of said fluids between said end and the exterior of the vessel (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a removable memory cartridge for electronic equipment such as a programmable automaton, the cartridge being of the type comprising a box (101), a memory unit mounted in the box, an elongate connector fixed to the box, and grasping means provided on the box to enable the cartridge to be extracted by seaprating the connector. The grasping means comprise a flat member (110) hinged about an axis (114) lying at least approximately in the midplane of the connector, said flat member being suitable for occupying a first position against the box where it does not substantially increase the size thereof, and a second position away from the box in which it may be grasped in order to exert an extraction force on the box acting substantially level with the connector.

Abstract: A screw connection device for electric conductors, is provided having at least one screw-clamping piece assembly. A structure integral with the insulating body of the terminal, partially surrounds the screw head and has at least one heel. This heel is applicable against an inclined face of the clamp and is adapted so as to hold the screw-clamp assembly in position against removal along the axis of the screw and against tipping towards the conductor insertion side.

Abstract: On at least one of two walls (16) (17) a terminal (7) housing (21) has a rib (44) respectively (45) that causes lateral distortion of a tubular housing (38) (39) which is part of a cover (3) so that the head (11) of a bolt of the terminal is gripped. This device, which is extremely simple to assemble, is recommended to make the terminal bolts so they cannot be lost and to hold them in an open position prior to wiring.

Abstract: An electro-magnetically controlled apparatus is provided having in a box an electro-magnet adapted to move an armature subjected to the force of a return spring developing an initial force, a contact holder associated with the armature and presenting side by side a plurality of pairs of housings each comprising a lower housing close to the armature, and an upper housing placed above, a plurality of mobile reversible bridge contacts, respectively placed in the respective housings and each receiving the action of a pressure spring which urges them against a cross piece separating two housings of a pair, these bridge contacts being adapted to cooperate each one with a pair of fixed reversible contacts disposed in the case so as to form one of the possible configurations of opening or closing switches placed in power or signalling circuits. The contact holder (9) comprises four pairs or superimposed housings (10.sub.U --11.sub.U, 10.sub.V --11.sub.V, 10.sub.W --11.sub.W, 10.sub.X --11.sub.X).
