Abstract: A lifting vehicle (2) for loading containers into aircraft has a pantograph-type linkage (36) mounted on a series-produced lorry chassis (4), by means of which linkage a case (8) or a loading platform can be raised. Arranged at the rear region of the case (8) or of the loading platform is an auxiliary driver's stand (18) which is occupied when manoeuvring the vehicle (2) up to an aeroplane (40) and by means of which the lifting vehicle (2) can be remote-controlled. By this means, the substantial advantage results that the lifting vehicle (2) can be controlled extremely precisely in the manner of a vehicle with rear axle steering and is at the same time very manoeuvrable. The loading and unloading of the aeroplane or of the case (8) or loading platform occurs exclusively by means of a loading gate (10) arranged at the rear end. Measures for converting the series-produced chassis (4) in the region of a driver's cabin (6) are thus avoided completely. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to gain access to various parts arranged in the fuselage of an aircraft, the aircraft fuselage normally has a plurality of openings which are sealed by a cover. The gaps between the opening edges and the covers are sealed with a sealing mass. In order to simplify the filling of the gaps and openings between the opening edges and covers, and to reduce its cost, and at the same time to provide the possibility of being able to remove the cover a plurality of times, without the seal having to be renewed every time, the invention provides a sealing strip which consists of two components, in each case of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), namely, firstly a PTFE sealing cord of circular cross-section, and secondly a PTFE flat sealing strip which is folded around the sealing cord such that the sealing cord is surrounded by the central region of the flat strip, while the two edge regions of the flat strip rest on one another. These edge regions are welded to one another so that the sealing cord is held firmly. The sealing strip is applied to the edge of the opening of an aircraft fuselage opening, it being easy to make the perforating holes for holding the cover attachment elements. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un procédé sert à adapter le mode d'exploitation d'un modem de connexion d'un équipement numérique terminal à un circuit analogique de téléphone aussi bien du côté d'appel que du côté appelé du circuit analogique de téléphone. Pendant des communications en mode synchronisé, premièrement, selon le procédé d'adaptation, l'équipement numérique terminal connecté à une extrémité du circuit téléphonique comprend un dispositif qui désigne en fonction d'une instruction d'exploitation le mode enregistré d'exploitation du modem complémentaire du modem en question. Le modem analyse l'instruction afin de sélectionner des données de référence concernant le mode d'exploitation et règle le mode d'exploitation du modem sur un mode prédéterminé. Deuxièmement, des signaux d'instruction concernant le mode sont transmis et reçus par multifréquence entre les équipements numériques terminaux connectés aux deux extrémités du circuit de téléphone au moyen des codes multifréquence de sélection utilisés dans les circuits de téléphone, de sorte que les modes d'exploitation des deux modems soient automatiquement adaptés l'un à l'autre. En d'autres termes, même lorsque les modes initiaux d'exploitation du côté d'appel et du côté appelé sont différents, un mode voulu d'exploitation est établi du côté appelé. Une fois que le côté appelé répond au signal d'appel, 1) les signaux d'instruction sont envoyés du côté d'appel au côté appelé au moyen de codes multifréquence. Lorsque ce mode peut être établi du côté appelé, ce mode est établi et une tonalité de réponse est renvoyée au côté d'appel. En outre, du côté appelé, lorsque le mode demandé par le côté d'appel n'est pas établi, un mode d'exploitation possible est transmis du côté appelé au côté d'appel au moyen de codes multifréquence. Lorsque ce mode peut être établi du côté d'appel, un code qui caractérise le mode est transmis de nouveau du côté d'appel au côté appelé afin d'adapter mutuellement les deux modes d'exploitation, et 2) des signaux d'instruction concernant le mode d'exploitation sont envoyés du côté appelé au côté d'appel au moyen de codes multifréquence afin d'assurer l'adaptation par le même procédé décrit sous (1) ci-dessus.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the volumetric water content of mineral and/or organic mixtures by means of dielectric measurements. 
<??>The water content is therefore determined without an elaborate mixture-specific calibration. 
<??>For this purpose, an electromagnetic wave is applied to measuring electrodes of a probe and their complex reflection factor is measured. Then the water contained in the mixture is frozen out by suitable means and the measurement is repeated. From the two measured complex reflection factors and the known permittivities of water and ice, the water content of the mixture is then determined using a calibration curve specific to the apparatus.
