Patent number: 8472017Abstract: A kit having a supporting device for maintaining a transparent article having a longitudinal axis A, a proximal end and a distal end. The supporting device including a proximal holder including a port intended to receive the proximal end of the article, and a distal holder including a receiving part intended to receive the distal end of the article, the port and the receiving part being aligned on the same longitudinal axis B. The supporting device further having a compressor for putting the article under longitudinal compression directed towards a center of the article, when the article is mounted on the supporting device with its longitudinal axis A aligned on the longitudinal axis B, and a polarimeter. The invention also pertains to a method for measuring the stress inside an article made of transparent material.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2010Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventor: Ronan Garrec

Publication number: 20050084688Abstract: The invention relates to a method of treating organic pollution on a substrate made of glass, oxide or any other essentially mineral or metallic material, exhibiting a functionality by the fact that it consists of one or more stacked layers and/or by the fact that it exhibits a particular surface morphology. This method is distinguished by the fact that it consists of an electrical treatment, an ozone UV treatment or a flame treatment, optionally followed by a washing operation. The invention also relates to devices for implementing this method, to the application of this method to hydrophilic and/or oleophilic glazing, and to glazing treated by this method and intended for a transport vehicle, for a building, for urban furniture, for an indoor or outdoor decorative element or for domestic electrical appliances.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2003Publication date: April 21, 2005Applicant: SAINT-GOBAIN GLASS FRANCHInventors: Ronan Garrec, Noel Crux
