Abstract: A sanitary fitting having a mixing valve, an outlet (2), a shower connection (3) and a shower changeover means (5) contains a backflow-arresting means (13) which, in the event of a pressure drop in the water system, is to prevent dirty water from being sucked back. The backflow-arresting means (13) is combined with the shower changeover means (5) to form a structural unit. It can be designed such that it only prevents water from being sucked back out of the shower hose. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The object of the invention is a method of illuminating the entrance portions of tunnels, particularly of tunnels in highways and motorways. According to this method, the portion at the entrance (I) of tunnel (G) is illuminated over a length (L) which is sufficient for a driver's eyes to become accomodated to the conditions of a lesser degree of light in a tunnel at a predetermined, maximum running speed of vehicles, by having the light outside tunnel (G) suitably reflected toward the entrance (I) and into the interior of tunnel (G). The invention also provides a device for carrying out the said method, comprising a reflecting element (2) which is arranged at a distance from, and upstream of the entrance (I) of tunnel (G), relative to the vehicles running direction (V), and has its reflecting surface (3) turned toward the entrance (I). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the optical transmission of a digital signal via an optical waveguide (3) which is dispersive at the operating wavelength, by means of an optical transmitter (2), the output signal of which is frequency modulated (FSK-modulated in this case) by the digital signal, there is at the end of the optical waveguide link a difference  DELTA  tau  in the delay of the two wave trains which occur in the FSK modulation. The electrical output signal V of an opto-electrical transducer (5) at the receiving end is intensity-modulated and passes through three value ranges. To retrieve the digital signal from this, a circuit (6) according to the invention is used, the output of which assumes a first state when a sample is in the first value range, the output of which assumes a second stage when a sample is in the second value range and the output of which assumes the state which occurred N bits previously at the same output when a sample is in the third value range. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A diagnostic and therapeutic apparatus for re-educating the posture of the backbone includes in combination means for controlling the orthostatic posture of the patient, means for carrying out a differential traction on the same patient at different levels in order to cancel out all or a part of his weight, means for correcting the postural defects in the three planes of the space and for blocking the patient within postural limits in order to prevent him from assuming postures other than that therapeutic even during the deambulation. In particular, the orthostatic posture is controlled by measuring the weight resting on each foot of the patient through footboards (19A, 19B) sensitive to changes in pressure placed under a travelling band (18), and the traction means are lacings or traction slings (24) slidable around pulleys (22) carried by a rigid framework and put under tension manually by the operator or automatically by a microprocessor receiving data measured from the footboard (19A, 19B) sensitive to changes in pressure.

Abstract: The invention pertains to an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) composed of (1) epoxy network forming compounds comprising: (a) polyfunctional epoxy compounds (epoxy resin); (b) polyfunctional aromatic hydroxyl compounds; (2) allyl network forming compounds; in which the (1):(2) weight ratio is in the range of 95:5 to 40:60, and the epoxy network forming compounds (1a) and (1b) are in a non-stoichiometric ratio to each other, such that the percentage of stoichiometry is in the range of 10 to 80 %. The percentage of stoichiometry is defined as 100 % times the quotient of the number of hydroxyl equivalents and the number of epoxy equivalents, i.e., eq. OH/eq. epoxy x 100 %. Such IPNs are especially suitable for use in the electronics industry and exhibit a favourable, high Tg and a low TCE. This also applies in the case of comparatively high percentages of epoxy resin giving optimum peel strength. The epoxy resin preferably is based on the diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol-A, while the allyl compound is triallyl cyanurate (TAC) or triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC).

Abstract: The invention concerns a self-supporting convering for building constructions, in particular for rectangular basins in sewage-treatment plants, the covering being made up of shaped-section fibre-reinforced-plastic load-bearing elements (2, 3) of two types: main load-bearing elements which are spaced parallel to each other a certain distance apart and supported at their ends and secondary load-bearing elements which are arranged flush against each other to connect the main load-bearing elements together. In order to provide a rational, lightweight structure which requires the minimum amount of material, gives a high degree of manufacturing flexibility and is easy to store and transport, the covering is designed using, as the load-bearing elements, lengths of continously fabricated linear plastic extrusions with the reinforcement material oriented in the direction of extrusion.

Abstract: A digital time code (50) is printed in an area (10) of a motion picture film, between the normal analog optical sound track (58) and the picture frames (8), that is exposed along with the sound track (58) from the picture frames (8). Digital audio for the motion picture is stored in a large capacity high integrity archival digital storage system (76). The time codes corresponding to known locations on the film are read as the film is played, and in an anticipatory pass the digital audio signals for these frames are transferred to a fast access data storage buffer (86) which temporarily stores the data before it is converted to analog format for theater play. The time code is read with light that is absorbed by the film dyes produced when the film is developed. Temporary storage of the digital audio signal in the buffer memory (86) accommodates breaks in the film, projector changeover and various time code validation schemes, and allows the digital data source (76) in which the digital audio data is stored to be a relatively slow access high data reliability device such as a digital tape. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a fan adapted for placing on the roof of a building. Roof fans are known which blow substantially vertically, while fans are also commercially available which have a substantially horizontal, radial outflow pattern. The fan according to the invention now has the feature that the fan is constructed such that the air blown to the outside has both a considerable horizontal and a considerable vertical directional component. Due to the angle at which the outflowing air is displaced, ambient air is carried along through so-called "induction". An air flow will for instance be created which travels downward from above in the direction of the fan, is then deflected and carried along by the obliquely blowing air flow. Also occurring along the roof in the direction of the fan is an air flow which will deflect in the vicinity of the fan to be then carried along in the direction of the obliquely blowing air flow. <IMAGE>

It incorporates a binder of classical bitumen or modified bitumen and some granulated material made up of gravel and sand. A part of the granulated material is replaced by some particles of a crushed composite material incorporating fibres. The process used to produce this coated bitumen is also claimed and consists of:- - raising the granulated material to the coating temperature; - raising the binder to the coating temperature; - mixing the granulated material and the binder to produce the coated bitumen; and - adding the crushed composite material, with a particle size between 0 and 10 mm, during the mixing stage.
