Patent DE-4112369-A1 (DE)
Inventor: FEHLINGS THOMAS
IPC: F16L47/04
Filed: 1991-04-16
Abstract: Three-piece metallic jointing elements for plastic pipes or plastic lines are known, in which the pipe is plugged onto a supporting sleeve of the jointing element and is secured with a clamping nut. The known jointing elements consist of metal and are hence expensive and not always resistant to the chemically corrosive nature of the water passing through. On the other hand, if such jointing elements consist exclusively of plastic they do not always provide the necessary sealing. It is intended to create a jointing element for plastic pipes which is cost-effective, sealed and chemically resistant. The invention proposes a jointing element (4, 4a) for pipes (3), in which the pipe (3), which has a plastic surface, is twisted into a sleeve-shaped section (8) with an internal thread (9), the thread (9) pressing or cutting into the plastic surface of the pipe (3) and hence producing a seal between the jointing element (4, 4a) and the pipe (3). <IMAGE>

Patent DE-4205509-A1 (DE)
Inventor: PEIER DIRK PROF DR ING
IPC: G01R15/24
Filed: 1992-02-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for measuring electric voltages and/or electric fields by the use of a crystal (1) with an electro-optical (Pockels) effect. To this end, in a direction transverse to the direction of propagation (y direction) of a light wave (17') polarised in the z direction, an electric field intensity gradient is generated in the crystal (1) in the direction from which results a corresponding gradient in the refractive index n of the crystal (1). This produces a deflection of the light wave (17') in the crystal which depends upon the field intensity and, on emergence, it is used as a measure for the voltage of field intensity. A suitable sensor for this purpose is also described.
