Abstract: The present invention provides a (meth)acrylic molding material comprising (A) a (meth)acrylic polymer obtained by polymerization of monomer components essentially containing a monomer having (a) carboxyl group(s) and an alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer, and (B) one or more kinds of monomers containing a vinyl group, wherein 30 - 600 parts by weight of aluminum hydroxide and 0.01 - 10 parts by weight of a succinic acid derivative are added for 100 parts by weight of the total of said polymer (A) and monomer (B). The (meth)acrylic molding material is thickened by aluminum hydroxide and the thickening behavior is controlled by the succinic acid derivative to prevent the viscosity from increasing with time, accordingly, the (meth)acrylic molding material shows good workability.

Abstract: Um hochfrequente Eingangssignale mit Hilfe eines GTL-Ausgangsverstärkers auf einer Übertragungsleitung einkoppeln zu können, sieht der GTL-Ausgangsverstärker neben einer pull-down Stufe (MN1) eine pull-up Transistorschaltung (MP1, MN2) vor. Mit Hilfe der pull-down Stufe (MN1) wird beim Anliegen eines Eingangssignales (E) des ersten Wertes der Ausgang (A) auf ein erstes Potential gelegt, mit Hilfe der pull-up Transistorschaltung (MP1, MN2) wird beim Übergang des Eingangssignales vom ersten zum zweiten Wert der Ausgang auf ein zweites Potential gelegt. Anschließend wird die pull-up Transistorschaltung gesperrt und das Potential am Ausgang durch das auf der Leitung liegende Potential bestimmt. Wenn das Eingangssignal wieder den ersten Wert annimmt, wird die pull-down Stufe wieder eingeschaltet und legt an den Ausgang wieder das erste Potential.

Abstract: Bekannten Pumpvorrichtungen, die zu Diagnosezwecken einen Überdruck in einem Brennstoffverdunstungs-Rückhaltesystem aufbauen, ist gemeinsam, daß eine Verbindung an einem Adsorptionsfilter zur Umgebung für die Dauer der Diagnose verschlossen wird. Bei einer Fehlfunktion des Absperrventils, beispielsweise durch Verklemmen, kann es zu einem für den Brennstofftank gefährlichen Unterdruckaufbau kommen, was bisher mittels am Brennstofftank vorgesehener Schutzventile vermieden wird. Es wird eine Pumpvorrichtung (2) vorgeschlagen, deren zur Erzeugung des Überdrucks benötigte Ventile (24, 25) derart ausgestaltet sind, daß in einer Offenstellung eines Regenerierventils (10) und in einer Schließstellung eines Absperrventils (20) durch einen ausreichenden Strömungsquerschnitt ASchutz der Ventile (24, 25) ein derart geringer Strömungswiderstand bewirkt wird, daß ein Erreichen eines den Brennstofftank (4) schädigenden Unterdrucks ausgeschlossen ist.

Abstract: The calibration of a listening system during operation is achieved with regard to a clock synchronising of the listening stations included in the listening system, and the receiver characteristics of the microphones located in each listening station. These parameters are automatically adjusted by utilising a method for automatic calibration, using one or more sound generators to transmit special correction signals. The geographic position of each sound generator included in the calibration must be known to the listening system, and be within hearing distance and line of sight of the microphones in the listening system. The invention is a method for the correct calibration of a passive acoustic listening system while such a listening system is used for the determination of the direction to, or the position of the origin of sound signals. The automatic clock synchronising of listening stations is important for accurate determination of the direction to and/or the position of the origin of distinct sound. Long term stability and the accuracy of the listening system is secured by the clock calibration and the adjustment of the microphone characteristics. Microphone characteristics from the microphone producers can support the corrections. The calibration can be utilised for listening systems working in 2 or 3 geographical dimensions, and can be performed either continuous or periodic.

Abstract: Containerized medical waste is treated by a process in which the materials are carried by a conveyor under a negative pressure to a multiple-stage shredder. Sodium hypochlorite is added at several points in the shredder section of the apparatus. The output of the shredder is compressed and the liquid component which is separated out is recirculated. The compressed solid is conveyed through a conveyor in which the temperature is maintained at a level just under 212 DEG  F. by the introduction of steam. The pressure is maintained at or below atmospheric pressure at all points in the system to prevent release of contaminated materials into the atmosphere. By using the combination of sodium hypochlorite and steam, it is possible to eliminate live microorganisms entirely while still taking advantage of low pressure to avoid accidental release of contaminated materials. Heating by steam takes place in a conveyor which is controlled by temperature sensors so that it moves only when its temperature reaches a predetermined level, e.g. 205 DEG  F. The intake conveyor is also controlled so that it does not feed waste into the treatment apparatus unless the temperature in the steam conveyor is at least at a predetermined minimum level.
