Abstract: Une douche buccale comprend une pompe de liquide entraînée par un moteur électrique, qui pompe le liquide à travers un tuyau flexible jusqu'à une poignée pourvue d'un ajutage tubulaire. La poignée comprend des éléments de réglage qui servent à interrompre l'amenée de liquide jusqu'à l'ajutage tubulaire, et un commutateur relié à l'alimentation en courant du moteur électrique par des conducteurs intégrés dans le tuyau flexible. Comme mesure de sécurité, les conducteurs sont formés par deux fibres optiques flexibles (11, 12), un photo-émetteur est agencé à l'extrémité plus proche du moteur électrique (5) de la première fibre optique (12), un récepteur photo-sensible (14) est agencé à l'extrémité plus proche du moteur électrique (5) de l'autre fibre optique (11), et un réflecteur mobile et/ou basculable (15) est associé à chaque extrémité éloignée du moteur électrique (5), des deux fibres optiques (11, 12), de façon à pouvoir se rapprocher et s'éloigner des extrémités des deux fibres optiques. Afin d'assurer la mise sous et hors tension du moteur électrique (5), ainsi que des modifications de sa vitesse de rotation, le récepteur photo-sensible (14) est connecté à un circuit électronique de réglage et à l'alimentation en courant.

Abstract: A composition which is suitable for forming biodegradable consumer products contains at least one natural starch and a maximum of 40% by weight of water. The starch is present at least partially as component of comminuted natural products, specifically in combination with other components of precisely these natural products. In a process for producing a biodegradable consumer product, a composition of this type is subjected to a heat treatment for plastication, gelatinisation or compression, where appropriate to a degassing, and subsequently to at least one moulding process. This heat treatment takes place either at a temperature below the glass transition temperature or above the glass transition temperature, depending on the water content of the composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to highly reactive reagents and compositions for the purification of waste gases and flue gases and for effluent treatment, and to processes for the preparation and to the use thereof. The reagents and compositions represent mixtures of calcium hydroxide with additives, in particular clays, rock powders, carbonaceous products such as pulverised coal and fly ashes and, if appropriate, waterglass, which are porous due to their special preparation and have a large specific surface area of up to about 200 m<2>/g. Using these sorbents, it is possible, in addition to heavy metals, it is also possible in particular to separate hydrocarbons and halogenated hydrocarbons, dioxins and furans from waste gases and effluents. Further advantages are the easy hardenability of the resulting products and their high degree of safety in landfills.

Abstract: To switch packet data in the ISDN D-channel via a digital exchange, the complex looping of a Frame Handler into the connection to perform OSI layer 2 and layer 3 functions is to be improved. For this purpose, a connection, based on destination information in the SET UP message, is set up by an OSI layer 3 control unit (SE3) between the two OSI layer 2 control units (SE1, SE2) of the exchange (VST), to which the data terminal equipment (DEE1, DEE2) can be connected. Direct packet data exchange then takes place between the OSI layer 2 instances without further involvement of the layer 3 instance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Le circuit comporte deux amplificateurs identiques (A1, A2), le premier constituant la cellule d'amplification de base du circuit (entrée Ie, sortie Is), et le second recevant un signal de référence (Iref). La sortie du second amplificateur, qui est le produit de l'entrée (Iref) par le gain (G), sert d'entrée à une boucle d'asservissement du gain (G) des amplificateurs. Cette boucle reçoit une tension de consigne (Vc) en vue d'établir un gain (G) qui est une fonction exponentielle de Vc. Un amplificateur différentiel à grand gain (AD) constitue le c÷ur de cette boucle: la tension différentielle entre ses entrées tend à être maintenue à zéro par la boucle d'asservissement. Selon l'invention, un élément (FTL) à fonction de transfert logarithmique est inséré dans la boucle entre la sortie du deuxième amplificateur (A2) et l'entrée de l'amplificateur différentiel à grand gain (AD).
