Record 1 2016-05-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Ignition Systems (Motor Vehicles)
DEF

A computer-based ignition system which is usually a part of the electronic engine control unit (ECU).

OBS

ECU consists of a central control unit(CPU) or a microprocessor, random access memory(RAM), read only memory(ROM), and input/output interfaces. Based on information from input sensors(engine air flow, coolant temperature, crank position, throttle position, etc.), ECU determines optimum settings for the output actuators of fuel injection, ignition timing, idle speed, etc.

OBS

computer-controlled ignition system; digital ignition system: terms and definition standardized by ISO.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Allumage (Véhicules automobiles)
DEF

Système d'allumage commandé par ordinateur généralement utilisé comme composant de l'unité de contrôle électronique du moteur (ECU).

OBS

L'ECU se compose d'une unité de contrôle centrale (CPU) ou d'un microprocesseur, d'une mémoire vive (RAM), d'une mémoire morte (ROM), et d'interfaces entrée/sortie. Selon les informations issues des capteurs d'entrée (débit d'air moteur, température du liquide de refroidissement, position de vilebrequin, position de l'accélérateur, etc.), l'ECU détermine les paramètres optimaux pour les actionneurs d'injection de combustible, d'avance à l'allumage, de ralenti, etc.

OBS

système d'allumage commandé par ordinateur; système d'allumage à commande numérique : termes et définition normalisés par l'ISO.

Record 2 2000-02-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Concrete Construction
  • Strength of Materials
  • Plastics Manufacturing
CONT

The thermal shrinkage is increased by any increase in temperature drop.

CONT

As the polymer cools, extra material is forced into the cavity by the injection ram to compensate for the thermal shrinkage as the part cools to room temperature.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Bétonnage
  • Résistance des matériaux
  • Plasturgie

Record 3 1998-08-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
  • Facilities and Equipment (Rubber)
CONT

Since good molding requires constant viscosity, the speed of the inject ion plunger must be accurately controlled.

OBS

injection ram : term standardized by ISO.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Plasturgie
  • Installations et équipement (Caoutchouc)
OBS

piston d'injection : terme normalisé par l'ISO.

Record 4 1998-04-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Foundry Practice
DEF

The plunger that fits in shot sleeve and forces the molten metal into the die.

Key term(s)
  • injection piston
  • injection ram

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fonderie
DEF

Piston qui force le métal contenu dans la chambre d'injection à pénétrer dans l'empreinte.

Record 5 1998-02-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
CONT

Oil is sent behind the clamp ram, which moves the moving platen and closes the mold. The pressure behind the clamp ram builds up, developing enough force to keep the mold closed during the injection cycle.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Plasturgie

Record 6 1998-01-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
CONT

Reciprocating screw systems. In a reciprocating(in-line) screw, the material is fed from the hopper, plasticized in the screw, and forced past a one-way valve at the injection end of the screw. The material accumulates in front of the screw, forcing back the screw, its drive and motor, and the pistons of the two hydraulic injection cylinders.... When the screw reaches a certain position, it contacts a limit switch that stops the rotation. When the cycle is ready to inject, two hydraulic injection cylinders, one on each side of the carriage, move the screw assembly forward and use the screw as an injection ram.

Key term(s)
  • in-line screw system

French

Domaine(s)
  • Plasturgie
CONT

[...] stockage de la matière par : [...] un système vis-piston [...]
