Abstract: An adjustable-length setting device has a cylindrical housing in which a piston rod (12), together with a piston (31), is arranged in a displaceable manner and is guided to the exterior in a sealed manner. Said device furthermore has a valve (32) for controlling the length setting. In order to prevent premature destruction of the seals which prevent the emergence of pressure medium, at least two seals (19, 14) are provided between the housing and the piston rod (12). A seal (14) prevents ingress of gas and, in particular, fluid, from outside into the housing along the piston rod (12). …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: A wafer substrate structure has a P type epitaxial wafer layer (21). An N+ type region separation layer (22) is formed in the wafer layer (21) to define a first closed region (A) and a second region (B) neighboring thereto. Formed in the first region (A) are a P- type layer (23) and an N- type layer (24) stacked thereon and serving as a high-resistance layer for forming the first element. An N- type layer (24) serving as a high-­resistance layer exists in the second region (B) of the wafer layer (21). These high-resistance layers are defined by separating a single semiconductor layer (24) by an N+ type diffused separation layer (26). Forming a high-voltage transistor as a power element in the first region to be PN junction-separated brings a "double PN junction separation" structure wherein the first region (A) is electrically separated by PN junction from the second region (B) and the high-voltage transistor is also PN junction-separated in the first region (A).

Abstract: In a combined infrared/ultrasonic intrusion detector, which simultaneously detects the body radiation and the movement of an intruder in order to raise the alarm, an attempt to render the infrared part of the detector ineffective by mounting a radiation screen in front of the radiation entry window (9) is detected by providing to the side of the window (9) an ultrasonic emitter (10) and an ultrasonic receiver (11), by means of which an ultrasound field is built up in front of the window (9). An interference signal is triggered in the event of a change in sound pressure or sound propagation time. This also makes it possible to recognise screens which are transparent to other radiations, for example light or microwaves, and cannot be detected therewith. In order to prevent the mounting of a screen such as a foil or spray layer directly on the window (9), the window (9) is mounted in a recess (8) on the front side (7) of the housing (1) and covered approximately in the plane of the front side (7) with a cover (14) which has very fine openings and is transparent both to ultrasound and to infrared radiation. An ultrasonic component (10) is located inside the recess (8), while another ultrasonic component (11) is located outside thereof, so that the cover (14) is transirradiated by ultrasound and it is possible to recognise a change in the permeability of the cover (14). <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention pertains to a multi-stage separator vessel through which the to-be-cleaned fluid flows. Aeration assemblies within the inner cells disperse micro-fine gas bubbles into the fluid for cleaning purposes. Additionally, the inlet piping contains a separator that begins the separation process before this fluid is discharged into the first cell. An L-shaped passageway interconnects the various flotation cells of this separator with the entrance of each such passageway being at an elevation below its exit. A weir is located within each flotation cell that is adjustable as needed. This weir empties into a channel alongside the separator vessel that collects the separated contaminants flowing over the weir for later disposal.

Abstract: The attaching device contains a sleeve (1a) which is made of a rigid plastic and is connected at one end to an over-dead-centre lever mechanism (3, 5). Annular extensions (9, 11) are integrally formed on the other end of the sleeve as well as on the free end of the clamping lever of the over-dead-centre lever mechanism. The extensions (9, 11) mutually engage comb-like one inside the other, and a rope end (1) passes through them. The through bores of the annular extensions are in alignment with one another when the over-dead-centre lever mechanism is opened, so that in this release position the rope end can be moved through the openings in order to put it into a desired position. The through bores are laterally staggered by closing the actuating lever, as a result of which the rope end is given a wave-like shape with which it is reliably clamped in place in the openings. The device is particularly suitable for the adjustable fastening of a trapeze rope end to a surfboard boom. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of and means for an improved internal combustion engine performance and of substantially reduced or eliminated pollutants. A relatively slow and long burning combustion is provided which produces an exhaust of high pressure which can be utilized to drive a turbocharger or cylinder or subsequent cylinders. Ideally, the compression ratio is reduced with respect to current internal combustion engines, and the maximum temperature in the power or combustion cylinder can be below the temperature at which NO x  is formed. Preferably the pressure during combustion remains substantially constant and the air or air/fuel mixture is externally compressed 40 to 100% of its compression pressure in the combustion cylinder. This results in a controlled energy release tailored to a change in volume per unit of time which results in more torque and horsepower, less fuel consumption and drastically decreases pollution, both chemical and heat to the atmosphere. A number of preferred embodiments are disclosed.
