Abstract: A wiper arrangement for vehicle windows has a wiper arm (29) which is provided with a pivot drive (5) and at whose free end part (28) a rotational bearing (63) for a wiper blade (16) is provided. A control mechanism (4) which is assigned to the pivot drive (5) ensures, during the pivoting movement of the wiper arm (29), that the wiper blade moves backwards and forwards in an approximately linear fashion approximately parallel to a side edge of the window (32) of the vehicle. For this purpose, the wiper arm (29) has two parts (27, 28) which can be displaced telescopically one in the other. The control mechanism (4) has a control element (41) which is arranged fixed to the vehicle and to which a sensing element (6) which is associated with the wiper arm is assigned. The wiper arm (29) can be moved into a position of rest in the region of the lower edge of the window, in which position the wiper blade (16) lies approximately parallel to the wiper arm (29). An actuator drive (19) deactivates the control mechanism (4) in a central operating position so that the longitudinal displacement of the wiper arm and the rotary drive (50) of the wiper blade (16) is arrested. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Dans le procédé de fabrication de dents artificielles, soit en remplacement de toute la dentition ou pour des couronnes, une dent est produite par usinage d'un bloc stratifié (20) de matériaux plastiques synthétiques. Les couches (34, 36, 38, 40) du bloc stratifié ont une couleur (teinte), une chrominance, une valeur et une translucidité variables prédéterminées, ce qui permet d'imiter la pulpe, la dentine et les couches d'émail d'une vraie dent, conférant ainsi à la dent artificielle la répartition et la profondeur de couleur d'une vraie dent. Ce procédé fait varier la couleur de la dent grâce à un fraisage de la dent à partir d'une section différente du bloc stratifié, faisant ainsi varier l'épaisseur des couches, au moins au niveau des surfaces labiales, médiales, distales et occlusales. On peut ainsi obtenir une dent sur mesure correspondant très étroitement à la couleur et à la structure des vraies dents du patient. L'invention permet la fabrication d'une dent artificielle à partir de matériaux dont la dureté correspond étroitement à celle d'une vraie dent, conférant ainsi à la dent artificielle des propriétés de résistance à l'usure similaires.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed for acquiring Earth-pointing attitude of a three-axis, body-stabilized spacecraft (20) orbiting the Earth in a prescribed orbit plane (41). The spacecraft (20) may be a geosynchronous communications satellite. The method includes the steps of aligning the roll axis (21) of the spacecraft (20) with the sun line (22), i.e. the vector (Ŝ) directed from the spacecraft (20) to the Sun. Then, the spacecraft (20) is oriented such that the angle (A) formed between the yaw axis (34) and the sun line (22) is equal to the Earth-Sun angle (B) which is the angle formed between the sun line (22) and a vector (ê) directed from the origin of the spacecraft internal coordinate system to the Earth. Then, the spacecraft (20) is oriented such that the yaw axis (34) is aligned with the center of the Earth. Finally, the spacecraft (20) is rotated about its yaw axis (34) until its pitch axis (30) is oriented at a desired attitude relative to the orbit plane (41), e.g., normal to the orbit plane (41), to thereby complete acquisition of the Earth-pointing attitude (Figure 3).

Abstract: A sealing arrangement (A) for a ball valve comprises a ball sealing element (20), which engages with the ball (10) in a sealing manner and is sealed against the housing (1) of the ball valve by means of a secondary sealing element (24). The force of a pressurising device acts on the secondary sealing element (24), which pressurising device consists of a piston element (26), which is arranged on the ball sealing element (20) and defines a pressure space (30) that is preferably sealed by a metal bellows arrangement (28), into which the medium to be sealed can be introduced via a passage (P1). The piston element (26) is thus subjected to a pressure corresponding to the medium pressure, so that the pressurising forces exerted on the secondary sealing element (24) and on the ball sealing element (20) are matched to the respective pressure relationships of the medium to be sealed, or are minimised, but on the other hand are always sufficiently large that the preferred material for the secondary sealing element (24) is compressed pure graphite. The sealing arrangement is distinguished by high heat resistance. The preferred use is in ball valves having a positively supported ball. <IMAGE>
