What is Familles d'equations de Thue-Mahler n'ayant que des solutions triviales about?

Let $K$ be a number field, let $S$ be a finite set of places of $K$ containing the archimedean places and let $\mu$, $\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\alpha_3$ be non--zero elements in $K$. Denote by $\OS$ the ring of $S$--integers in $K$ and by $\OS^\times$ the group of $S$--units. Then the set of equivalence classes (namely, up to multiplication by $S$--units) of the solutions $(x,y,z,\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2,\varepsilon_3,\varepsilon)\in\OS^3\times(\OS^\times)^4$ of the diophantine equation $$ (X-\alpha_1 E_1 Y) (X-\alpha_2E_2 Y) (X-\alpha_3E_3 Y)Z=\mu E, $$ satisfying $\Card\{\alpha_1\varepsilon_1,\alpha_2\varepsilon_2,\alpha_3\varepsilon_3\}= 3$, is finite. With the help of this last result, we exhibit new families of Thue-Mahler equations having only trivial solutions. Furthermore, we produce an effective upper bound for the number of these solutions. The proofs of this paper rest heavily on Schmidt's subspace theorem.
