Abstract: A device for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle comprising a central console. The device further comprises a slideway intended to be fixed to the passenger compartment of the vehicle, extending in a longitudinal direction of elongation, and having a lateral opening also extending in that longitudinal direction, and guiding and retaining structure sliding within the slideway, the guiding and retaining structure extending through the lateral opening and being linked to the console.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a new method for the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals based on technetium and rhenium. The method involves the reaction of a salt of the formula [M(CO)3(Xm)3](1+3m), wherein M is selected from a radioisotope of rhenium, technetium and any other radioisotope that binds in a similar fashion, X is any suitable ligand and m is the formal charge for ligand X, with a nido-dicarbollide dianion of the formula [nido-(C2B9H11)]2− and functional derivatives thereof. The method has been shown to be applicable to the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals at the tracer level.

Abstract: A device for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle comprising a central console. The device, in addition to the central console, comprises a support intended to be fixed to the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and guide means comprising a rail and a carriage maintained with respect to the central console and to the support. The device further comprises releasable connection means having an active position and an inactive position in which they respectively maintain and release the assembly formed by the console and the guide means with respect to the support.

Abstract: A foldable sink box consisting of a rigid plasticized hull and a buoyant platform having a large central aperture for engagement by the rigid hull in assembled condition. The hull defines a relatively deep well, for sitting engagement by a hunter. The platform defines two halves, interconnected by an intermediate lengthwisely-extending hinge member. Locking brackets releasably lockingly interconnect the platform to the top edge portion of the rigid hull, concurrently with releasably locking the platform halves in coplanar fashion.

Abstract: An alarm transmission system with portable receivers for watching a site, which system comprises a plurality of portable and removable autonomous detection units, a plurality of portable autonomous receiving modules capable of releasing signalling or warning means incorporated to the said receiving modules upon receipt of signals sent by a transmission unit and a central information-receiving and processing unit equipped with at least one receiving module, and in which system the signal transmission unit is constituted on the one hand by radio-transmission and coding means associated to each detection unit and on the other hand by means of reception by radio-link and decoding means incorporated to each portable receiving module.

Abstract: Biodegradable organic wastes are crushed and then fed to a first cell A of a treatment unit in which they are mixed with liquid recirculated from the discharge end of that unit to form a sludge. After oxygenation in cell A, and following the establishment of an anaerobic atmosphere in that cell by the introduction of carbon dioxide, part of the sludge passes by gravity into a lower-level second cell B for prefermentation with evolution of carbon dioxide. Subsequently, part of the contents of cell B is transferred -- again by gravity -- to a third cell C, at a still lower level, where fermentation with generation of methane takes place. The methane production is continued thereafter in a fourth cell D at the lowest level, the latter containing a potash solution in which the accompanying carbon dioxide is dissolved while the methane is recovered.
