Abstract: In a process and with a device for non-contact measurement of speed on surfaces, in particular for ski speed measurement on snow surfaces, a signal (102) with a fixed frequency is beamed in the direction of travel (106) at a beam angle ( alpha ) which is less than a half aperture angle ( THETA /2) of the device (100) emitting the signal (102); a signal (110) reflected at the surface (104) and Doppler-shifted relative to the beamed signal (102) is received; from the Doppler spectrum of the received signal (110) that portion with the highest frequency and an energy value above a predetermined level is determined, and the speed is derived from the frequency of the determined portion of the spectrum.

Abstract: Des systèmes électroniques de commande de moteurs possèdent plusieurs composants individuels sur la tubulure d'admission, composants dont certains sont relativement éloignés les uns des autres. Il s'ensuit qu'il est nécessaire de recourir à des lignes de connexion électriques relativement longues et à un nombre relativement important de connecteurs à fiches pour connecter lesdits composants à l'appareil de commande électronique. L'invention a en conséquence pour objet un dispositif de réglage des gaz pré-assemblé (1) comprenant au moins un organe d'étranglement (2) monté pivotant dans une tubulure du volet de réglage (9), et un régleur de ralenti (5) dans un boîtier (9, 30, 40) présentant un conduit de dérivation (21) entourant l'organe d'étranglement (2) et pouvant être modifié par le régleur de ralenti (5), conduit dans lequel une soupape de régénération (4) peut envoyer du carburant et qui est contrôlable par un appareil électronique (3) logé également dans le boîtier (9, 30, 40). Le dispositif de réglage des gaz selon l'invention convient spécialement pour des moteurs à combustion interne à compression du mélange et à allumage par étincelles.

Abstract: A device is provided for pumping fuel through an internal combustion engine, comprising a pump cylinder and a piston reciprocable within the pump cylinder to define a pump chamber open at one end in which fuel is pressurized during a pump stroke of the piston. A fuel supply means is provided for supplying fuel to the pump chamber. The fuel supply means includes an electromagnetically actuated fuel control valve having an armature secured thereto, with the armature residing in a fuel-filled armature cavity. The armature electromagnetically cycled between a first position closing the fuel control valve and thereby closing the flow of fuel to the pumping chamber and a second position opening the control valve thereby allowing fuel to flow to the pumping chamber. The armature is a flat plate secured to the control valve and constructed with a series of flow through holes and/or slots of prescribed geometry to (i) assist in precluding cavitation errosion of the armature and/or fastener securing it to the control valve by the fuel within the armature cavity, and (ii) to enhance the hysteresis characteristics of the fuel control valve. Various embodiments are provided.

Abstract: A process for producing a pipe fitting of thermally weldable material for attachment to or repair of conduits of thermally weldable material. The first injection mold has channels formed as windings and having channel walls. A heating wire is formed to a wavy heating strand which is laid into the first injection mold between the channel walls. A first welding material is introduced into the channels so that a first broad side of the wavy shape of the heating strand is pressed against a first mold surface of the injection mold and an intermediate product with embedded wavy heating strand is formed. The outside surface is formed by the first mold surface against which the heating strand is pressed and provides the contact surface with the conduit in the end product. The first broad side of the wavy shape of the heating strand remains visible at the outer surface of the intermediate product. The intermediate product is placed into a second injection mold for producing a pipe fitting so that the outer surface rests on a second mold surface of the second injection mold. A second welding material is introduced and the contact surface of the pipe fitting is formed. The first broad side of the heating strand remains visible at the contact surface after solidification of the second welding material.
