Abstract: Disclosed is a device for measuring radiation doses absorbed by a gel dosimeter, including in particular a polarizer for a light beam according to at least two distinct polarization angles, the polarizer being positioned between a light source and an optical detector, a unit for measuring the value of the intensity of the light beam, which intensity is measured by the optical detector, and a unit for calculating the value of a ratio of intensities of the light beam, which intensities are measured by the optical detector, for two distinct polarization angles of the light beam that is selected by the polarizer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cartridge box comprising: —a box (1) comprising an intake (5) and an outlet (6), the outlet (6) being placed under the intake (5) and separated from same by a guide roller (3); —a plurality of compartments (9) separated by partitions (2); —a belt (7) of cartridges (8), said cartridge belt crossing the intake (5), then folding into the compartments (9), from the compartment (9) closest to the intake (5) to the compartment that is furthest away, and then crossing the outlet (6), above the guide roller (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for configuring a lighting system including a set of at least 3 light sources (Li) having different spectra (Si(?)), including a step of automatically defining the intensities (?i) of each of the light sources of said set by minimising a distance between a reference spectrum (SR(?)) and a synthetic spectrum (Ss(?)) defined by the sum of the spectra (Si(?)) of each source (Li) of said set weighted by said intensities (?i).

Abstract: A disposable umbrella having an elongated handle member for supporting a foldable canopy. A plurality of rib members are positionable along the underside of the canopy. A collar member is slidable along the handle and is registrable with a cam surface on the rib members for urging the rib members to open the canopy. The collar member is press-fit into friction-locking engagement with the rib members to releasably retain the canopy in the open position. The collar member, the plurality of rib members and the canopy are assembled on the handle member and secured by an end cap that is lockingly engageable with the handle member.
