Abstract: When blocked gas channels of a honeycomb catalyst are cleaned using a cleaning rod, the catalyst is easily damaged as a consequence of the cleaning rod being tilted or twisted. Moreover, cleaning of the blocked gas channels is very time-consuming. In order to shorten the cleaning time and to avoid damage to the catalyst, an apparatus is provided according to the invention in which a number of cleaning rods, whose diameter and length matches the internal geometry and length of the gas channels of the catalyst, are fastened to a retaining device parallel to one another and at a distance which corresponds to the grid of the gas channels of the catalyst. The invention can in principle be used for cleaning any honeycomb catalyst. <IMAGE>

IPC: H03K19/003

Abstract: The number of active switching elements (e.g., N30-N35) in a buffer is automatically varied to compensate for variations in process speed, operating temperature, and power supply voltage. For this purpose, a reference voltage which is proportional to the speed of a switching transistor in the buffer is applied to an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter. The A/D converter may be implemented with a simple resistor divider and comparators, all of which can be made on-chip. The resistor dividers are chosen such that at worst-case slow conditions all the comparators have high outputs. As the process/temperature/voltage changes, the reference voltage also increases. This successively turns off sections of the switching transistor (N30-N33), thereby slowing down the response of the buffer. Since the control leads (B60 to B3) are digital, they are not susceptible to noise as they are routed around a chip full of noisy signals. The digital control signals may be latched, and the control circuitry powered down to zero for power-sensitive applications.

Abstract: The carriage has, on a carriage frame (1), a tilting device (21) having a push rod (13), with which a transport tray (19) arranged on a horizontal shaft (8) can be tilted. When the transport tray (19) is tilted a parcel, for example, located on the tray is transferred to a preselected destination, for example to a chute. A locking device (20) having detent pawls (4), a setting disc (11) and a detent wheel (12) automatically locks the transport tray (19) in the predetermined inclined position. In this way the transport tray (19) is prevented from not being able to tilt back even when a sliding block (30) which is provided for swivelling and is situated in the region of the tilting path is no longer in engagement with the tilting device (21). The sliding block (30) can thus be shorter than the tilting path. <IMAGE>
