Patent number: 11964703Abstract: An off-road vehicle has a frame, a motor, a plurality of ground engaging members and a cargo box connected to the frame. The cargo box having a floor, a front wall, a left side wall and a right side wall. An inner panel is connected to one of the left and right side walls of the cargo box. The inner panel defines a side storage space on an outer side of the inner panel. An outer panel is removably connected to the inner panel. The outer panel covers the side storage space. The outer panel has an outer periphery, and an integrally formed portion of the inner panel extends outside the outer periphery of the outer panel.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: BOMBARDIER RECREATIONAL PRODUCTS INC.Inventors: Stephane Veillette, Didier Dubois, Igor Krucko, Jean-Philippe Crepeau, Thierry Cotnoir

Patent number: 9479381Abstract: Disclosed is a transmission method of transmitting at least one multicarrier signal made up of OFDM-OQAM symbols to a receive antenna of a receiver device, the transmission method being for use by a transmitter device having at least one transmit antenna. In one embodiment, the method comprises, for each transmit antenna of the transmitter device, filtering OFDM-OQAM symbols associated with the transmit antenna using a time-reversal prefilter defined from an estimate of the transmission channel between the transmit antenna and the receive antenna and transmitting the filtered OFDM-OQAM symbols via the transmit antenna over the transmission channel.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2012Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: OrangeInventors: Pierre Siohan, Bruno Jahan, Dinh Thuy Phan Huy, Maryline Helard, Thierry Dubois

Patent number: 9379797Abstract: The invention relates to a multiantenna radio communications method wherein frequency subbands Bsk, for k=1, . . . , P, are allocated respectively to P user antennas s1, . . . , sp belonging to one or more users, from within a total frequency bandwidth BT, and wherein at least one of the user antennas communicates with the base station over its respective frequency subband Bsk by means of a signal that has been filtered by time reversal. According to the invention, for at least one pair of user antennas Si and Sj, where and i,j=1, . . . , P and i?j, the respective frequency subbands Bsi and Bsj overlap by ?Bsi,sj, said overlap ?Bsi,sj being a predetermined function of the correlation between the respective propagation channels of these two user antennas with said base station.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2011Date of Patent: June 28, 2016Assignee: OrangeInventors: Dinh Thuy Phan Huy, Matthieu Crussiere, Maryline Helard, Thierry Dubois

Patent number: 9275382Abstract: A checkout station for a retail store is configurable between an employee-assisted mode and a self-service mode. In the employee-assisted mode, the checkout station is positioned on a checkout lane and a merchant operates the checkout station to checkout a customer from the store. In the self-service mode, the checkout station is positioned on the opposite side of the checkout lane and the customer performs the checkout functions with little or no help from the merchant. A motor in the checkout station is controlled to move the entire checkout station laterally across the checkout lane in response to receiving reconfiguration commands from the merchant. The reconfiguration commands may also control the checkout station to raise or lower its vertical height.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2014Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions Holdings CorporationInventors: Thierry Dubois, Pierre Luguern, Catherine Mengin

Patent number: 7038161Abstract: The invention provides a welding device (10) using a power laser beam (22), the device (10) being miniaturized, the device (10) being suitable for being moved very close to the surface (52a) of the part (52) to be welded and of reaching welding zones that are difficult to access, but without vapor and particles of molten metal (56) being capable of penetrating into the inside and dirtying the optical components (28, 48, 46). Such a device is remarkable in that it includes a feed (26) of gas under pressure suitable for producing a primary flow of gas (50) leaving via the front opening (20) together with the laser beam (22), and in that it also includes a nozzle (60) connectable to a source of gas under pressure, said nozzle (60) producing a secondary flow of gas (62) sweeping the front opening (20) transversely, thereby deflecting the primary flow of gas (50) laterally.Type: GrantFiled: July 4, 2002Date of Patent: May 2, 2006Assignee: Snecma MoteursInventors: Pascal Aubry, Thierry Dubois, Sophie Hertmanowski, Hervé Launais
