Abstract: Des tubulures servent à guider des gaz chauds, notamment les gaz d'échappement d'un moteur à combustion interne qui entraîne un véhicule à moteur. Dans ce cas, un collecteur de gaz d'échappement est retenu au moyen d'une première bride de fixation sur une tête de cylindre. Le côté libre du collecteur de gaz d'échappement comporte une deuxième bride de fixation reliée à une autre bride fixation d'un conduit de gaz d'échappement. Le collecteur et le conduit de gaz d'échappement coopèrent avec une garniture d'étanchéité sphérique de façon à compenser des tolérances dans l'ensemble du système d'échappement. La deuxième bride de fixation constitue une pièce constituée séparément du collecteur de gaz d'échappement qui s'appuie par liaison de forme sur un élément annulaire. L'élément annulaire est axialement poussé contre une butée du collecteur d'aspiration. Ce mode de réalisation permet à la deuxième bride de fixation de résister à des sollicitations élevées de flexion.

IPC: H05K3/34
Filed: 1991-08-13
Abstract: Solder pastes having vehicles including blends of low boiling point alcohols and relatively high boiling point alcohols are described which leave residues which may be cleaned using only water are described. The low boiling point alcohols have a boiling point range of between about 65 DEG  and about 150 DEG  C. whereas the high boiling point alcohols have a boiling point in rhe range of about 150 DEG  to about 270 DEG  C. The solder pastes also use water-soluble organic acids as fluxing agents such as compounds of the formula: <IMAGE>  where R is an electron withdrawing group such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, sulfur, hydroxyl, nitrile, and benzyl. Other suitable formic-acid fluxing agents include, but are not limited to, adipic acid, polyacrylic acid, methacrylic acid and polymethacrylic acid. The compounds clean oxides from the printed circuit boards (PCBs) under assembly and then volatilze leaving a residue to be cleaned away. The cleaning step involves rinsing with water. No undesired residue remains indicating that the organic acids of the invention are effective in cleaning boards. Malic acid is a preferred organic acid fluxing agent.

Abstract: A measuring device (1) is used for electrically measuring a resistor (3) forming a measuring sensor (2), which can be formed, for example, by a Pt100 resistor. A storage capacitor (11) is connected in parallel with this resistor (3). The measuring resistor (3), together with the storage capacitor (11), is connected to a measuring instrument (5) via two lines (4). The line length can be several metres in this arrangement. A power source (10a, 10b) can be used for sending a constant measuring current through the measuring circuit. Across the resistor (3), a voltage proportional to the current is dropped, to which voltage the parallel-connected storage capacitor (11) is also charged up. If the constant current is then disconnected, the charging voltage of the storage capacitor (11) can be remotely measured without voltage drops occurring across the line resistances since measuring takes place virtually without current. In this measuring method, thermal voltages occurring in the measuring circuit can also be taken into consideration. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 2.1. The rotors of small electric motors are as a rule produced for customer requirements since it is rare for there to be a small motor which can be supplied to a second or to several customers in the same configuration. The construction of the rotor shafts according to the invention allows the rotors to be produced in large batch sizes independently of a customer-specific construction of the shafts. 
<??>2.2. The rotor shaft is constructed in three parts, the shaft centrepiece (12) holding the rotor laminar stack (11) and having free ends (12', 12'') which overhang the ends (13, 14) of the rotor on both sides. The one end (12') of the shaft centrepiece (12) is used in this case as a holder for the separately produced shaft stump (15) on the drive end, and the shaft stump (16) on the non-drive end, which is likewise produced separately, is mounted on the other end (12'') of the shaft centrepiece (12).

Abstract: An image-bearing member suitable for carrying an electrostatic image and/or a toner image is formed by forming a surface layer on a substrate or a photosensitive layer. The surface layer comprising a high-melting point polyester resin shows a good dispersibility of the cured resin to provide a durable layer in combination with the cured resin, and also a lubricant, preferably a silicone-type one, whereby the surface layer provides an image-bearing surface suitable for electrophotography. The surface layer may be a protective layer or a photoconductive layer when it constitutes a photosensitive member.

IPC: B66B1/18
Filed: 1992-03-02
Abstract: This method minimises the local accumulation of lift cabins (cluster formation) in that closely adjacent stops are concentrated to one cabin which is promoted by a variable and controllable distribution bonus (Bvn). For this purpose, the estimated costs of lost time (GVK) for all passengers are calculated for each lift and for each storey call, these estimated costs of lost time (GVK) are reduced by a variable distribution bonus (Bv) concentrating adjacent stops to one cabin and a storey call is allocated for service by that lift which has the lowest reduced estimated costs of lost time (GVK red.min.). Both the estimated costs of lost time (GVK) and the variable distribution bonus (Bv) are calculated in accordance with closed formulae. To ensure that this method operates both with a high and with a low traffic load (Va), the variable distribution bonus (Bv) is corrected by means of a correction function (F[Va]) in accordance with the relation Bvn = Bv F[Va] in accordance with the traffic load (Va) as correction parameter (NFP) and thus the variable correctable distribution bonus (Bvn) defined (SR18). The correction function F[Va] can be determined by means of KI method according to Step 16 (SR16) or in accordance with expert programs according to Step 17 (SR17). 
<??>Keeping down the local accumulation of lift cabins is optimum for each traffic load (Va) with the traffic-dependence of the distribution bonus (Bvn). 
<??>This method can be applied to a large number of different service requests, allocation criteria and correction parameters (NFP).

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing dense sintered articles from metal or ceramic materials. A flowable casting composition consisting of the pulverised material, a binder and a solvent is poured into a predetermined mould and subsequently dried. The binder is removed from the green compact thus formed and the latter is sintered. The proportion of binder in the casting composition should be minimised. Expediently, the mould is vibrated during the casting. Heating control during drying with simultaneous application of a vacuum is advantageous. Multi-layered articles can also be produced by suitable application of the process.
