FR2488096 is a French patent associated with Jacques Ravatin and reproduced in the source archive. It is the only substantive technical item in the source dossier on Ravatin and "The Activator." The archive renders its title as "Application of Form Emissions to Matter in Motion"; the text-bearing capture preserves the French title Dispositif d'application des émissions dues aux formes, à la matière en mouvement.
Three captures of the document exist in the archive:
- [source note 6] preserves the patent text, including its French title, claimed construction, and claimed applications.
- [source note 7] also preserves the full patent text, including the same French title, claimed construction, and claimed applications, and additionally reproduces the drawing image
FR2488096.png. - [source note 8] is a duplicate of the Ravatin dossier text, preserving the same patent text and images as the other captures.
The captures are described separately below, since they support different claims about the same patent number.

The captures that preserve only the drawing or only the image inventory supply no title, abstract, claims text, filing date, grant date, or inventor-of-record data beyond the association with Ravatin. The date and attribution above therefore rest on the text-bearing capture alone; the French title rests on that capture, while the English rendering rests on [source note 8].
Claimed construction
Per the text-bearing capture ([source note 6]), the device is a geometric form of revolution about an axis, through whose axial bore passes the moving fluid or a current-carrying conductor. The tube or conductor is preferably force-fitted into the axial hole to ensure the best possible mechanical contact between form and tube. The preferred form is a cylinder whose downstream end finishes in a conical prolongation with a point angle of preferably 33°. The form may be made of electrically conductive or insulating material, "this material being densest possible."
| Parameter | Relation |
|---|---|
| Cylindrical portion axial length | ≈2.3 × outer diameter D |
| Axial bore diameter | ≤0.1 × D |
| Radial holes | 2, on the same generator, ~0.1 × axial bore diameter |
| Distance from frontal face to hole edges | 0.3 × D and 1.5 × D |
| Cone point angle | 33° |
| D | ≥10 × tube diameter; ≥1 cm; advantageously 10 cm or more |
The two radial holes are stated to "stabilize and increase the level of the emissions due to form 1." Other geometric forms may be placed nearby, and an electric, magnetic or electromagnetic field may be associated with the form.
Claimed applications
Per the text-bearing capture ([source note 6]):
- Water for agriculture.
- Fluid entering a chemical reaction.
- The current supplying the electrodes of an electromedical care apparatus.
- The current supplying the ignition of a combustion engine.
In all cases the emissions due to the form are claimed to improve the effects produced by these fluids or currents and/or to bring new and beneficial effects. See Form Emissions (Emissions Due to Shapes).
What the image-only captures document
The capture [source note 7] preserves the full patent text, including the French title, claimed construction, and claimed applications, and reproduces the drawing image FR2488096.png.
The capture [source note 8] is a duplicate of the Ravatin dossier text, preserving the same patent text and images as the other captures.
As with any patent reference in this archive, the filing is a record of a claim and not evidence of function — see Patent as Evidence.
Relationship to the Ravatin dossier
Per the text-bearing capture ([source note 6]), FR2488096 is one of several patent filings reproduced in the Ravatin dossier, alongside a PCT publication (wo1.jpg–wo4.jpg) and a French patent numbered "2716" (fr2716a.jpg–fr2716c.jpg). The relationship among these filings — whether they are a family, a priority chain, or unrelated — cannot be determined from the captured material.
The capture [source note 8] describes the same folder contents in terms of image filenames only: fr2716a, fr2716b, and wo1–wo4. On that capture's account, the capture gives no numbers, titles, dates or contents for them, so no separate page is warranted on that evidence.
