Abstract: In the present invention, use is made of a flushing device which permits flushing with two different amounts of flushing fluid. The bottom valve member (21) of the device comprises two float rods (30, 31) which are each connected to a float (32, 33). The float rod (30) for the small flushing amount is fixedly connected to the bottom valve member, whereas the float rod (31) for the large flushing amount is connected to the bottom valve member via a lost-motion coupling (37) to make it possible for the bottom valve member to move upwards and downwards relative to this float road. In the resting position, the float rod (31) for flushing with the large amount of flushing fluid is locked by means of a lock (59), such that the float (33) connected to this float rod does not affect the lowering of the bottom valve member (21) towards its valve seat (20) during flushing. The flushing with the small amount of flushing fluid will thus be determined completely by the movements of the other float rod (30) and its associated float (32). When releasing the mechanism for flushing with the small amount of flushing fluid, a release member (55) is actuated, which first releases the above-mentioned lock (59) and then raises the bottom valve member (21) from its seat (20) by means of the float rod (31) intended for the large flushing amount. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Le cycle d'invention comporte une éolienne (1) située au-dessus de la roue avant (13) et maintenue en son axe (2) par un prolongement du cadre (21-22). Cet axe de rotation (2) est couplé au pédalier (3) par l'intermédiaire d'un renvoi d'angle (4) et d'une chaîne de transmission (5). A mesure que la bicyclette se déplace, le vent s'engouffre dans les pales (1) qui s'animent d'un mouvement de rotation dont l'énergie est transmise jusqu'au pédalier (3) où elle se conjugue aux efforts du cycliste, améliorant sensiblement les performances de sa machine. La force du vent croissant avec la vitesse du cycle, différents plateaux (3), sous la chaîne de transmission (5), offrent plusieurs rapports de couple qui permettent d'adapter et d'optimiser le rendement du système éolien. La position caractéristique de l'éolienne combinée à la configuration particulière du cadre, supprime en outre la majorité des prises au vent inexploitables. L'exploitation du gisement éolien par le dispositif précité peut être également convertie en énergie électrique.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine of the known type has a 4-valve cylinder head with a central injector valve. To cool the cylinder head floor, coolant flows via a total of eight inlets into individual outer cooling chambers in the cylinder head before passing via cast channels into an inner cooling chamber surrounding the injector valve. From there, the coolant passes directly to an outlet. This internal combustion engine is improved by the feature that a cooling chamber between the cylinder head floor (25) and an intermediate partition (17) includes an outter uninterrupted annular chamber (12) which is connected via straight cooling bores (13) with an injector valve cooling chamber (14) in the middle of the cylinder head floor (25), and by the presence of additional cooling channels (19) which connect at least one outlet valve cooling chamber (20) with the annular chamber (12) and injector valve cooling chamber (14). This design facilitates effective cooling of the cylinder head in those areas subjected to thermal stress and is also advantageous in structural terms. In addition, the assembly process entailed by the invention is optimised by the fact that cylinder head, intermediate housing, cylinder pipe, piston and connecting rod form a single assembly unit which can be pre-assembled. These components can thus be assembled at one site by mechanics especially trained for that task and then fitted as a pre-assembled unit in the engine.

Abstract: The machine tool has a motor shaft (1) and a spindle (2). When a force acting axially relative to the motor shaft exceeds a certain threshold value, a compression device allows plastic deformation. A maximum axial compression of the compression device is possible over an axial displacement path (s) which is less than the axial play (a) between the shaft and spindle. The compression device comprises at least two compression sleeves (5) each mounted in one of at least two recesses (4a) in a tension ring (4). The tension ring is located in a plane perpendicular to the axis (A) and serving to fix the spindle axially relative to the housing by tension screws (6) screwed through bores (4b) in the ring parallel to the axis (A) into a fixed retaining bush (9) on the housing.

Abstract: A laser surgical device for vaporization of a living tissue consists of an operating laser assembly, a detecting arrangement and a control unit. The operating laser assembly generates an operating beam having a predetermined wavelength corresponding to a peak absorption wavelength of water. The detecting arrangement is adopted for detecting a condition of an operated living tissue by receiving and reviewing a signal reflected from the operated living tissue so as to produce a control signal. The control unit controls characteristics of the operating beam based on the control signal, so that the depth of vaporization of the living tissue does not exceed 15-20 microns.

La broche, laquelle peut être une tige présentant un alésage axial sur une partie de sa longueur, est soumise à un stimulus extérieur tel qu'une force d'étirement afin de provoquer une réduction suffisante de son diamètre, de sorte que ladite broche est reçue dans la cavité. A mesure que cesse le stimulus, la broche revient à sa configuration initiale, et ce faisant elle s'élargit pour venir contre les parois de la cavité. Un second élément de prothèse peut être configuré pour recevoir une partie du premier élément de sorte que l'élargissement de la broche dans la cavité du premier élément provoque simultanément l'élargissement de cet élément au contact du second élément afin de bloquer lesdits éléments ensemble.

Abstract: The invention proposes a single-tank sewage treatment plant making it possible to combine activated sludge and bio-film biology. Here, some of the organisms needed for sewage purification are placed on breeding bodies. The bodies (4) have a specific weight of over 1.0 g/cm<3>, preferably 1.1 to 1.3 g/cm<3>. They are caused to eddy by the introduction of air (5). After sedimentation, the bodies form a precisely bounded biologically solid bed. Owing to the high sedimentation rate of the breeding bodies on which organisms are grown, it is possible, after the ventilation has been switched off, to convert the aerobic fluidised bed into an anoxic solid/fluid bed. The introduction of air (5) can also take place in the reactor so that regions with differing oxygen supplies can be formed. It is thus possible for aerobic processes with nitrification and anoxic processes with denitrification to take place alongside one another.
