Abstract: A process and a device for the biological conversion (composting) of organic waste materials, in particular from the catering sector, provide a treatment in at least two chambers (7, 8) which are separated from each other. In the first chamber (7), the waste materials which have been introduced are treated only until their conversion into biomass has progressed to a particular intermediate stage. Some of this partly converted material is then transferred into the second chamber (8) for final composting. Fresh waste materials which have been introduced into the first chamber (7) are treated together with the remainder of the partly converted material. Since the number of active microorganisms in the first chamber (7) is always high, the conversion process of the freshly introduced waste materials is started immediately. The heat-insulating housing (1), which contains the chambers (7, 8), is preferably rotatable about a horizontal axis (3) in a targetted, alternating manner so as to mix the material, and grinding gears (12, 12') are provided for fine comminution of the material. If desired, the composted material can be dried and/or sterilised in a third chamber. A couplable container unit (40) receives the material which has been composted in the second chamber (8). After having been removed from the treatment device, the container unit (40) can be combined with other such units to form a transport unit ready for removal by an HGV. The apparatus allows waste materials of the abovementioned type to be converted to biomass in a virtually continuous process within a shortened period of time, for example one to two days. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for incorporating a solvent-free finely divided siccative into a liquid coating material which contains an oxidatively drying binder. The object of the invention is to find a process and to provide an active substance which allow siccatives to be incorporated into a coating material without solvents and other undesired accompanying substances, but nevertheless fully effectively. In order to achieve this object, the invention proposes that the siccative, before incorporation into the coating material, is adducted onto solid particles serving as carrier and to be incorporated into the coating material, and that the active substance formed in this way is mixed into the liquid constituents of the coating material.

Abstract: The work-clamping device has two clamping pieces (6, 7) clamping the workpiece (5) like a vice and pivotable about the axis of rotation of an adjusting device which can be indexed by angular increments. The first clamping piece (7) is fastened to the drive spindle (11) transmitting the adjusting moment (Mv) and guided in the first housing (1), while the second, freely rotatable clamping piece (6) is connected to the supporting spindle (3a, 3b) mounted in the second housing (2a, 2b). A hand-operated or motor-operated mechanism (4) transmits the clamping force (K) necessary to hold the workpiece (5) to the second clamping piece (6) and produces the axial movement of the supporting spindle (3a, 3b) required for clamping and unclamping. The clamping force (K) is essentially transmitted frictionally to the workpieces (5) and brings about their positioning during the individual machining operations and the rotation into the next machining position. The work-clamping device not only permits the machining of cylindrical workpieces (5) clamped in the axial direction; by means of clamping pieces (6, 7) of appropriate design, parts of any shape can also be machined from several sides without reclamping. With the work-clamping device, several workpieces (5) can also be machined simultaneously in one set-up on several sides in each case in an especially efficient manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for comparing torsional stress/strain states of a power transmitting member of an internal combustion engine to detect an abnormal combustion condition, including misfire, knock or roughness. Statistical processing steps may be used to detect an abnormal combustion event including : calculating a mean and standard deviation for a set of signals related to the torsional stress induced in the power transmitting member, calculating a difference between a later signal and the mean, calculating a ratio of the difference to the standard deviation, and comparing the ratio to a threshold. The ratio so obtained from a given cylinder may further be compared with one or more other such ratios from other cylinders. On other words, the auto-correlation and/or cross-correlation techniques may be used. A magnetostrictive sensor may preferably be used to obtain the signals relating to the torsional stress in the power transmitting member, such as the engine crankshaft. In addition, the magnetostrictive sensor may include windings to cancel induced electromagnetic interference signals. The magnetostrictive sensor may also generate signals relating to the position of the power transmitting member in addition to the torsional stress in the power transmitting member. Spatial integration techniques may be used to obtain torsional stress/strain signals which are independent of the rotational speed of the power transmitting member. Spatial interaction may be performed using variable amplifiers, variable attenuators, switched capacitors or other techniques. <IMAGE>

Date Nov. 26, 1992A method of determining a load measurement value in dynamic weighing of an object passing over a weighing platform supported by load-sensing means generating a load-dependent weighing signal (S) which rises from a basic level to a peak level, to subsequently fall to the basic level. An at least approximative signal peak value (Speak) is determined as representing the weighed load. The weighing signal is integrated at least during a time interval (t1-t5) about the point where the signal peak value is determined in order to produce a summation result, the time interval being recorded as a measurement time factor (M). Further, a form factor (F) for the weighing signal is calculated in the form of the ratio of the summation result, i.e., the integrated area under the weighing signal (S) for the time interval (t1-t5), to a corresponding rectangular area that would be obtained in static weighing, i.e., the product of a peak value and the above time interval. Finally, the load measurement value is determined as the above-signal peak value with a resolution depending on a quality factor Q=FxMxk, wherein k is a factor chosen while taking into consideration the weighing conditions.
