Abstract: Method to convert refuse derived fuel (RDF) into a combustible gas, whereby the refuse derived fuel is gasified and the derived gas undergoes a process of catalytic cracking in which at least one alkaline additive or an equivalent product is used, the gas being passed through a cyclone separator to collect the particulate solids and thereafter undergoing a cooling process with recovery of hot air before being passed through sleeve filters, the ashes of the gasification and the particulate solids being sent to a dump for ashes, the ashes of gasification being riddled beforehand to gather the fines, which are mixed with fines coming from the sleeve filters and are employed as further catalysts in the catalytic cracking process. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a multipole coupling half, the actual housing is used indirectly via a plug-in unit for holding contact elements to which an electrical lead is connected. For insertion of the contact elements, the plug-in unit must be secured in a pre-latching position, where perforations in the housing which are used for insertion of the contact elements are aligned with corresponding holders in the plug-in unit. In order reliably to attain this pre-latching position and in order not to reach the final locking position of the plug-in unit in an undesired manner, a blocking knob, which can be pressed in elastically transversely with respect to the displacement direction, is provided on the plug-in unit, to which blocking knob a window in the housing which has a corresponding blocking profile is allocated. Before the plug-in unit can be pushed in further, the blocking knob must be pressed in manually from the outside of the housing through the window, which is at the same time used as an operating opening, until the blocking profiles become disengaged. The blocking knob thus acts like a pushbutton. The latter is preferably integrally formed on an elastically bending arm of the plug-in unit. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A step-transformer selector has a generally cylindrical drum centered on an axis and provided with an annular array of selector contacts and, axially offset therefrom, with at least one polarity contact offset axially from the selector contacts. A selector shaft extends along the axis in the drum and rotatable about the axis to connect to selected ones of the selector contacts. A polarity switch having a pivot in the drum offset from the axis and a ring can rock in the drum on the pivot between a connecting position touching and connecting to the polarity contact and an out-of-service position offset from and out of contact with the polarity contact. A cam on the shaft engages a follower on the ring for rocking the ring from its out-of-service position into its connecting position at least once during each rotation of the shaft about the axis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile compost container (1) in closed container form (parallelepipedal form) having at least one loading hatch (2) in the roof of the compost container (1), the loading hatch (2) being attached to a framework (3) which is pivotably mounted on the compost container (1) in hinge joints (4), and also having a pivoting device which is rotatably mounted externally on one side wall (5) of the compost container (1) and acts on the loading hatch (2) and which is intended for opening and keeping open the loading hatch (2) in the closed position. To improve a hitherto known compost container so that the disadvantages associated therewith are largely eliminated, it is proposed that the pivoting device and the actuation of the clamping device be executed, physically combined, in a lifting device (6), and the lifting device (6) have an idle phase in the region of the closed position of the loading hatch (2) with respect to the closing movement of the loading hatch (2), and that in this idle phase a locking mechanism be actuable by the lifting device (6), which locking mechanism acts on in each case at least two closing projections (7, 7a) arranged on each longitudinal side of the compost container (1) with which closing projections the loading hatch (2) can be brought to bear sealingly on the corresponding bearing faces in the roof of the compost container (1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multidirectional carrier and track (10) generally comprising a disc (28,30), a track (12), and a structure (20,22) on the track defining a disc supporting surface (24,26). The disc (28,30) is supported on the disc support surface (24,26) for rotation about an axis, and has first and second ball bearing assemblies (56,58). The ball bearing assemblies have inner (64,66) and outer (68,70) races, the inner races being mounted adjacent one another along the axis. The disc also has an outer cylindrical rim portion (76), the rim portion having an inner-facing surface (77), an outer-facing surface (79) and upper and lower surfaces (82,84), the inner-facing surface (77) engaging the outer races (68,70) and the lower surface (84) contacting the track (12). The structure on the inner-facing surface (77) defines axially spaced faces projecting radially inward towards the axis in step-wise fashion, forming two axially-facing shoulders (86,88) projecting from the inner-facing surface (77). The outer paces (68,70) contact the shoulders (86,88) and are held in the outer rim portion against axial movement in one direction relative to the axis of the support member. A cylindrical reinforcing band (100) surrounds and reinforces the rim portion (76). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An acoustic touch position sensor is shown wherein a Lamb wave is imparted into a substrate by a transducer mounted on the substrate, the Lamb wave propagating along a first axis. Top and bottom reflecting arrays are disposed along the first axis to reflect portions of one mode of the Lamb wave along a plurality of parallel paths extending across a touch surface of the substrate to a second pair of top and bottom reflect arrays. The second pair of top and bottom reflecting arrays reflect the Lamb waves incident thereto along an axis parallel to the first axis to a receiving transducer that provides a signal representative of the received Lamb waves. A touch on the substrate results in a partial absorption of the energy in the Lamb wave propagating along a path intersection the touch position so as to produce a perturbation therein which is sensed to determine the axial position of the touch on the substrate. In a second embodiment a single transducer and reflective array is provided for each axis, a coordinate on which is to be determined. In a third embodiment of the present invention, a single transducer is provided for two axes.

Abstract: An arrangement having a UV lamp (23) has a semiconductor controller (14, 15, 25) for influencing the electrical power supplied to this lamp (23) by means of phase-gating control of both the positive and the negative half-cycles. A high-reactance transformer (18) is connected between the semiconductor controller (14, 15, 25) and the UV lamp (23). During operation, said transformer supplies a starting voltage and a burning voltage for the UV lamp (23). The high-reactance transformer has a transformer core which is constructed from laminates and whose iron volume is increased by approximately 25 % or more in comparison with that of a high-reactance transformer for the same UV lamp but not having a semiconductor controller. This thus results in the paradoxical situation that the iron volume of the high-reactance transformer (18) must be increased in order to reduce the power supplied to the lamp (23). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a weighing device for bulk materials having a funnel-shaped weighing container 6. The weighing container is suspended pendulously in the fork branches 3a of a fork 3 which serves as a supporting arm and the fork shank of which has a rotary joint taking effect about the shank axis. The fork 3 is held at one end of a flexural measuring cell 2, the other end of which is fixed. The weighing container not only can be exchanged easily and be filled centrally from above, but allows highly accurate weighing at very short time intervals, because, during the material discharge, effective dynamic forces occurring as a result of pendulum movements fade away quickly on account of the special suspension, and because of the pendulous suspension of the weighing container in the fork branches of the rotary joint in the shank axis, the weighing container is suspended cardanically, so that it loads the flexural measuring cell only about one specific axis. The single figure is intended for the abstract. <IMAGE>
