Abstract: An inclined awning (1) contains at least two running rails (2, 3) which run at a distance from one another and parallel to one another and which exhibit a slope starting from their rear end. Situated below the running rails (2, 3) is a gathered drape (4) which is fastened at a multiplicity of mutually spaced locations to supporting rails (14). The supporting rails (14) are connected, at least at their ends, to running elements (17) which run in the running rails (2, 3). A driving device, consisting of pulling cords (33) and actuating devices (34) for drawing in and extending the pulling cords (33), serves for retracting and extending the gathered drape (11), which in the extended state forms an inclined region (12) and a vertical region (13) remote from the rear end. In order to be able to manage without interfering running rails (2, 3) in the vertical region, provision is made on that supporting rail (2, 3) which is situated at the transition between the sloping and the vertical region (12, 13) for at least one locking device for one of the pulling cords (33), which locking device cooperates with a releasing device at the front end of the associated running rail (2, 3) in order to free the pulling cord (33). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un appareil amélioré permet de détecter de manière fiable et sans ambiguïté l'angle d'arrivée d'un faisceau d'un rayonnement électromagnétique émis par une source distante. Une unité détectrice (2) reçoit au travers d'une fenêtre optique (22), le rayon incident qui est dirigé vers des premier et second détecteurs (10, 12) par un diviseur de faisceau de gradient (24). Le diviseur de faisceau (24) possède un gradient de référence et une transmittance déposée le long d'une surface qui est en corrélation par rapport à l'angle d'arrivée du rayonnement. Le premier détecteur (10) et le second détecteur (12) reçoivent une partie de l'énergie du faisceau incident par réflexion et transmission respectivement du diviseur de faisceau (24). Le rapport entre une différence et une somme des réponses des détecteurs à l'énergie reçue est ainsi également mis en corrélation avec l'angle d'arrivée. La scintillation atmosphérique qui provoque des concentrations changeantes d'énergie dans des agglomérats ou ''scintels'' dans le faisceau, est compensée par l'action de bandes opaques de gradient du diviseur de faisceau (24), lesquels divisent le faisceau par un facteur constant indépendamment de la distribution d'énergie. Ainsi, lorsque le rapport différence/somme des réponses au faisceau divisé par les premier et second détecteurs (10, 12) est pris, la corrélation avec l'angle d'arrivée n'est pas affectée par l'énergie changeante.

Abstract: When the frames of the wings (3, 4, 5) of a sliding folding element (2), for example a sliding folding door, are produced from plastic sections or from thin aluminium sections, these are sensitive to distortion even when they are equipped with reinforcement, because the latter cannot extend right into the frame corner. To ensure that the load on the second wing (4) and further wings during the opening of the first wing is reduced to a minimum, the second wing (4) can open only when the first wing (3) is opened at approximately 180 DEG and retained on the second wing (4) by means of a first locking device (17). Released particularly via the first wing (1) is a second locking device (18), by means of which the second wing (4) is fixed relative to a stationary frame (1). By means of a third locking device (19), the folded-together position of the first and second wings can be secured additionally in the initial opening movement of the second wing (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to the preparation of aminoalkyl p-hydroxyphenyl ketones. Certain of these ketones are well known as important intermediates in the production of compounds having pharmaceutical activity, for example octopamine or synephrine. The known Houben-Hoesch reaction is a variation of the Friedel-Crafts reaction and involves the condensation of a phenolic substrate with a nitrile in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst to give a hydroxy-aryl ketone. It is an object of the invention to provide a new or improved process for the manufacture of aminoalkyl p-hydroxyphenyl ketones. According to the invention, there is provided a process for the preparation of an aminoalkyl p-hydroxyphenyl ketone comprising reacting phenol with a nitrile, in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, to cause condensation thereof, the process being characterised in that the reaction is carried out in a medium comprising a nitroalkane solvent for the reactants. A preferred but non-limiting feature of the invention is the productiqn of 2'amino-4-hydroxyacetophenones. The present invention is based on the surprising discovery that nitroalkanes are unexpectedly much better solvents for this reaction, being less toxic, giving a better yield and also ensuring a homogeneous reaction medium. The nitroalkanes may also be diluted with a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent, which acts as an inert diluent, thus reducing the amount of nitroalkane used, and making the reaction less hazardous.

Abstract: A supporting mechanism for a casing hanger improves the load withstanding ability. The casing hanger (33) is located in a wellhead housing (11). A recess (17) is formed in the bore (13a, 13b) of the wellhead housing with an upward facing shoulder (15) extending into the bore. An insert ring (19) is stationarily and rigidly mounted in this recess. The insert ring has a load shoulder (25) on its upper side. The load shoulder (25) of the insert ring is considerably less in width than the recess shoulder (15). However, the insert ring (19) has a greater hardness to increase the capacity of the insert ring. The casing hanger (33)has an exterior load ring (37) that lands on the insert ring (19). The load ring has threads (47) which are cut to have clearances initially between the load flanks. A clearance also exists between the upper end of the load ring (37) and a downward facing shoulder (36) on the casing hanger. A protuberance (51) on the upper end of the load ring maintains this upper clearance until the load flank clearances close up, then allows the upper clearance to close up to assure loading through the flanks.
