Abstract: A method for producing a textile complex including a textile web and an upper coating layer having an irregular surface condition, and including decorative patterns applied onto the upper coating layer. The method includes preparing a multi-layer decoration complex having at least a substrate layer, a coloured layer, and a heat-fusible layer, cutting the coloured and heat-fusible layers along outlines of the decorative patterns without cutting the substrate layer; removing portions of the coloured and heat-fusible layers outside the pattern areas; arranging the prepared multi-layer complex on the upper coating layer by way of the surface thereof with the heat-fusible layer; applying temperature and pressure conditions that trigger the adhesion of the heat-fusible layer to the upper coating layer; and then subjecting the assembly to a processing resulting in a structured and regular surface condition of the upper coating layer.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a magneto-optical reading device for multi-track magnetic tapes, including a flat large incident beam directed onto the active part of a magneto-optical read head and reflected by this head onto an array of sensors, characterized in that it includes a correction device able to move the zone of incidence of the beam on the read head in order to keep the beam optimally positioned on the active part of the read head as the latter suffers progressive wear. The invention increases the useful working life of such a reading device.

Abstract: A rope hook comprises a length of tubular fabric webbing into which a pair of loops has been formed. The first loop serves to attach the hook to an object. A resilient U-shaped member is contained within the tubular webbing to define a U-shaped member for holding a coil of rope. An adjustable fastener spans the opening into the hook for engagement with the second loop.
