Abstract: Disclosed is an improved casting tip (14) for a nozzle of a continuous caster, the tip designed for transferring molten metal (4) from a molten metal reservoir (2) to a continuously advancing mold as formed, for example, by twin belts (18), rolls (24) or block casters (28) for casting molten metal into solid form (22). The casting tip (14) is comprised of a top wall (44), a bottom wall (46) oppositely disposed from the top wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall oppositely disposed from the first side wall, the first and second side walls joined to the top and bottom walls to form a passage therebetween having an entrance and an exit. The passage has a top wall inside surface (52) having a first portion (56) that first converges towards the bottom wall starting at the entrance and has a second portion (60) that diverges from the bottom wall to the exit, the top wall first portion having a length less than the top wall second portion length. Further, the passage has a bottom wall inside surface (54) having a first portion (58) that first converges towards the top wall starting at the entrance and has a second portion (62) that diverges from the top wall to the exit, the bottom wall first portion having a length less than the bottom wall second portion length. The top wall and bottom wall converge and diverge about substantially an equal amount from a center line from the entrance to the exit of the passage.

Abstract: An electric lamp (1), in particular a metal-halide high-pressure discharge lamp for motor vehicle headlamps (headlights), has integrated in the cap (2) a strain relief for the feed cables (6a, 6b). The strain relief contains resilient (springy) sleeves (11a, 11b) which surround the feed cables (6a, 6b) in a positive and/or non-positive manner. For this purpose, the sleeves (11a, 11b) are in each case provided with at least one slot in such a manner that a reduction of the initial circumference can be accomplished by forces which act radially from outside on the sleeve. The radial forces are advantageously produced by pressing the sleeves (11a, 11b) into conical holes (10a, 10b) in the cap base (9) during assembly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The integrity (density) of discrete pieces of hard tissue (bones) in a patient may be determined by either one of two methods. In a first method, an impulse of energy is introduced into the hard tissue, such as by striking the patient's hard tissue, and the induced vibration is sensed and analyzed in order to compute the damping factor thereof, the damping factor being directly related to the density thereof. With this method, a transducer is coupled to the hard tissue and its output is amplified by an amplifier before input to a computer which determines the damping factor. In a second method, a continuous energy input is provided to the hard tissue, such as by utilizing a frequency generator coupled to a power amplifier whose output drives a transducer such as a speaker or the like for inducing a continuous vibration in the hard tissue. This continuous vibration is measured with a transducer, having amplified output, and a damping factor is calculated with a computer.

Abstract: The system is used to provide index prints of reduced size for each set of copies, printed next to one another along the copy material web. The printing of the copies and the index prints is effected via separate exposure stations, offset from one another in the transport direction of the copy material web, with the light quantity used for printing the index print determined from the exposure at the copy printing station. The transport of the copy material web is controlled so that the latter is fed to the index print exposure station after printing the last copy in the set, with the printing of further copies prevented until a long enough copy material web for all the index prints is supplied.
