Abstract: A housing for a battery includes an envelope and at least one rupture device provided with a rupture cap. The rupture device is mounted at the location of an opening formed in the envelope. The rupture cap breaks when an excess pressure is exerted on its outer surface situated on the outer side of the housing.

Abstract: A laminated abutment (10) comprising an inner strength member (11), an outer strength member (12), and an elastomeric member (15) comprising a stack of main layers (20, 30) that are flexible and of secondary layers (40) that are rigid. The stack comprises at least one first main layer (20) and at least one second main layer (30), each first main layer (20) presenting, in a lead-lag plane (PTRA), a first thickness (e1) that varies between a minimum first thickness (e1min) on the pitch-variation axis (AXPAS) and a maximum first thickness (e1max) on the flapping axis (AXBAT), and each second main layer (30) presenting, in a lead-lag plane (PTRA), a second thickness (e2) that varies between a minimum second thickness (e2min) on the flapping axis (AXBAT) and a maximum second thickness (e2max) on the pitch-variation axis (AXPAS).

Abstract: A secure method for requesting resources in a distributed computer network is described. The method comprises of a means of securely integrating a request for a resource along with its validation and authentication from a first server with restrictions for the request such as expiry date and IP address as well as other request parameters. The resulting request is placed on a second server which is capable of decoding and responding to the request or redirects the request securely to a third computer to respond.
