Abstract: An arc spray gun has (10) a generally frusto-conical head (11) member of electrically insulating material, with the small end facing forwardly in the direction of spray. Wire is fed through a pair of electrically conductive tubular wire guides (22, 22') containing pressure contact means that extend through the head member and converge to contact the wire ends for arc formation and melting of the metal. A gas jet nozzle (26) provides compressed gas for atomization and spraying of the molten metal. A gas cap (28) cooperates with the head member (11) to define a gas chamber (32) therebetween, with rear and forward gas seals interposed between the head member (11) and the gas cap (28) at locations, respectively, rearward and forward of the gas chamber (32), the head member having a gas duct therein adapted for connection to a secondary source of compressed gas and communicating with the gas chamber (32) for directing the secondary gas so as to modify the molten metal spray. The gas cap (28) has two diametrically opposite orifice systems therein connected with the gas chamber (32), and that each orifice system has an elongated cross section with a long dimension tangential to a circle coaxial with the symmetry axis of the metal spray.

Abstract: A control device for an internal combustion engine in vehicles has a desired-value transmitter (22) adjustable via a throttle lever, a servomotor (20) driving a throttle valve (10), and control electronics (21) which, from the output signals of the desired-value transmitter (22), generate an actuating signal for the servomotor (20). To maintain emergency running operation if the electronic control fails, an emergency-running device (23) for the direct transmission of the throttle-lever position to the throttle valve (10) is provided. In order, on the one hand, to ensure an automatic cut-in of the emergency-running device (23) in the case of a fault and, on the other hand, to avoid subjecting the servomotor (20) to additional frictional resistances in fault-free operation, the emergency-running device (23) has a clutch (24), one clutch part (241) of which is connected firmly to the throttle valve (10) and the other clutch part (242) of which is connected permanently to the throttle lever. The clutch (24) is designed in such a way that the two clutch parts (241, 242) are out of engagement during fault-free operation and automatically come into engagement with one another in the event of a fault. …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: Irradiating a semiconductor layer with intensity-modulated laser radiation induces a modulated optical reflectivity for a laser beam of a different wavelength. The modulated optical reflectivity serves as a measure of the density of electronic inhomogeneities and positionally resolved measurements can be made of it. The use of a measuring laser beam having a wavelength in the range from 200 to 345 nm makes possible precise measurements in the entire application range, in particular the determination of low to high implantation doses and of residual damage in crystalline semiconductor layers.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a seismic wave in a body of water is disclosed. A resonant standing wave is generated in a fluid (16) disposed in a container (10) of predetermined length. A device located within the container excites the fluid (16) into oscillation. Oscillation is maintained by continuing to provide energy to the fluid to compensate for losses due to fluid friction. Also located within the container are movable members (12, 14) which change the resonant frequency of the fluid, thus providing a device for generating discreet or swept frequencies in a desired range restricted by the size (L) of the apparatus. The standing wave thus created is radiated through the container (10) into the surrounding water and into the earth, eventually detected by seismic sensors located along the surface of the earth.
