Title: Process and apparatus for automated sterilisation and/or treatment of drinking water and service water or of waste waters by means of anodic oxidation
IPC: C02F1/461
Filed: 1993-08-02
Abstract: The problem underlying the specified invention is on the one hand specifying a process which enables the reproducibility and reliability of water treatment to be increased in the case of highly variable water throughput between a maximum and the value zero and on the other hand to create an apparatus which enables the use of electrode materials which are industrially and economically expediently available and usable, in particular for service water and waste water treatment, without unreasonably high corrosion of the electrodes occurring or impermissible water pollution with electrode material taking place. In order, in the automated sterilisation and/or treatment of drinking water and service water or of waste waters by means of anodic oxidation, to achieve sufficiently useful results, an energy impulse, after previous intermediate storage in an induction resistor (3), is periodically impressed via electrodes (5) on the water (6) between the electrodes (5), all of the electric discharge being fed from a low-voltage source (1). The process and the associated apparatus are suitable for the automated sterilisation and/or treatment of drinking water and service water or of waste waters by means of anodic oxidation. <IMAGE>

Title: Electromagnetically operable proportional valve
Inventor: KEUERLEBER HORST
IPC: G05D16/20
Filed: 1993-08-06
Abstract: The electromagnetic valve according to the invention has a magnet armature (18) interacting with a valve member (37). A compression spring (41) acts on the magnet armature (18). The preloading of this compression spring (41) can be varied by an adjusting screw (43). In order to reduce the effects, resulting during varying temperatures, of the different pressure-medium viscosities on the characteristic curve of the proportional valve, the adjusting screw (43) has a freely guided section (46) and is made of a material whose coefficient of thermal expansion is greater than that of the magnet housing (10). Thus the hydraulic resistance, likewise variable during varying pressure-medium viscosity, at the valve member or valve seat can be at least partly compensated for. <IMAGE>

Title: Semiconductor memory with redundancy circuit occupying small area - ensures rapid substitution of good storage cells for address-registered defective cells of main memory
Inventor: NAKAJIMA MICHIO
IPC: G11C29/00
Filed: 1993-10-13
Abstract: When a main memory (20) contains a defective storage cell, the address of the latter is stored in a defect address characterisation circuit (21). Detection circuits (22a-22r) ascertain whether an address signal (AD) received at an input terminal (4) corresponds to an address registered as defective.
