Abstract: A voltage-source drive converter for a rail vehicle includes two supply converters, a voltage link and a load-side converter with drive motor connected in series. The converters can be divided into sub-converters and are isolatable from a current bus of the voltage link, so that the drive motor can be connected in by means of switching over these sub-converters, to thus provide a fault-tolerant drive converter which is capable of providing the total traction force in the event of drop-out of a phase module, thus maintaining scheduled traffic.

Abstract: The invention relates to a locking device for a selector lever (5) for an automatic gearbox, the locking device acting upon a transmission member situated between the selector lever and the automatic gearbox. The selector lever (5) is connected in a first gear-shift gate (12) to the transmission member, and the locking device then acts upon the transmission member and secures it in its current position when the selector lever has left the first gear-shift gate (12) and is no longer connected to the transmission member. In addition, a longitudinal locking means (10), which holds the selector lever in pre-set positions during its longitudinal movement in the first gear-shift gate (12), is provided on the selector lever (5). In order to provide a locking device which is inexpensive in design and simple to assemble, it is proposed that the locking device and the longitudinal locking means (10) interact with each other when the selector lever (5) is in the first gear-shift gate (12). In this way, the locking device is now unlocked by way of the longitudinal locking means, so that the transmission device for the automatic gearbox is released only when the selector lever is moved.

Title: Radiation visbroken polypropylene and fibers made therefrom
Inventor: WILLIAMS STEPHEN D
IPC: D04H1/4291
Filed: 1997-03-27
Abstract: A propylene homopolymer having a stick-point of 30 cm or less during melt spinning, an oligomer content of less than 1500 ppm without postpolymerization treatment to remove oligomers, and a melt flow rate greater than 300 dg/min is prepared by radiation visbreaking in a multistage fluidized bed reactor. The polymer is subjected to irradiation in the substantial absence of oxygen, followed by a multistage treatment in the presence of a controlled amount of oxygen. The radiation visbreaking process can also be applied to other propylene polymer materials. The propylene polymer materials produced by this radiation visbreaking process can be used, for example, for extrusion coating, film production, and injection molding.

inductor (22) and a capacitor, with the inductor (22) also
functioning as an antenna. The IC attachment area (36) of
the flexible substrate (26) is cleaned and the latter is
secured in a fixed position in a plenum to prevent substantial
movement thereof. The IC (14) is secured to the IC attachment
area (36). Wire bonding of the IC (14) to at least
one electrical conductor (38, 40, 42) of the resonant circuit
is performed. A protective covering is applied over
the IC (14) and the wire bond to protect the wire bond from
being damaged by external forces.

Abstract: Photoaddressable polymers have a main chain as backbone and covalently attached lateral groups of formula -S<1>-T<1>-Q<1>-A (I) and -S<2>-T<2>-Q<2>-M (II), in which S<1>, S<2> = O, S or NR<0>; R<0> = H or 1-4C alkyl; T<1>, T<2> = (CH2)n, optionally with in-chain -O-, -NR<0>- or -OSi(R<0>)2O- and/or optionally substituted with methyl or ethyl; Q<1>, Q<2> = direct single bond, O, COO, OCO, CONR<0>, NR<0>CO or NR<0>; or in which S<1>T<1>Q<1> or S<2>T<2>Q<2> = a piperazine-1,4-diyl group; A = a unit which is able to absorb electromagnetic radiation; M = a mesogenic, dimensionally anisotropic unit; n = 2-12. A has a linear absorption coefficient  DELTA  DELTA E of more than 0.2, measured on a compound of formula A-Q<1>H or A-Q<1>T<1>S<1>H from 6 separate measurements, in which two measurements are made in each case at the long-wave edge of the absorption curve with (A) the compound at the lowest possible concentration in a solvent of the lowest possible polarity, (B) the standard at the highest possible concentration in the same solvent and (C) compound and standard at concentrations as above in the same solvent. One measurement is taken at the wavelength (L) at which the absorption value of curve (C) is 0.8, and one at L + 50 nm; this gives the three absorption differences  DELTA E = EL - EL+50 for the constituents (A)-(C) and hence the three values  DELTA EA,  DELTA EB and  DELTA EC, from which is obtained the required difference  DELTA DELTA E =  DELTA EC - ( DELTA EB +  DELTA EA). Also claimed are 6 compounds of formula A-Q<1>-T<1>-S<1>-R, in which R = H, -OC-CH=CH2, -OC-CMe=CH2, -(CH2)n-OH, -CH2-CHOH-CH3 or -CHMe-CH2OH, and (meth)acrylates of the last three of these compounds.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for ink jet printing use a print head including a first nozzle group for discharging a first ink, a second nozzle group for discharging a second ink and a third nozzle group for discharging a printability improving solution. The third nozzle group is displaced between the first nozzle group and the second nozzle group. The first nozzle group discharges the first ink on the printing medium based on image data to form an image, the third nozzle group discharges the printability improving solution on the image formed on the printing medium by means of another step, and the second nozzle group discharges the second ink on the image formed on the printing medium. The printability improving solution has higher penetrability into the printing medium compared to the ink. 
     The method and apparatus can attain a clear colored, high density image without color mixing, which has high water resistance on plain paper, with a low running cost.
