Abstract: For a device for the path control of a driven part along at least two interdependent axes, in the course of which one axis is the guided axis and the other axes are the guiding axes, and furthermore the guided axis is controlled in its position via actual-value displacement transducers, and a control difference is formed by means of a counting device from two-phase cycles containing sign information, it is proposed, in order to achieve path control with high speed and accuracy, that short counters with a high counting frequency be provided as counters, which counters are attached via an internal bus to a signal-processing system which is set up in such a way that the control difference is processed in a sampling control algorithm and a manipulated variable is formed which is fed to the guided drive via a D/A-converter and a subassembly analog output/controller blocking. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1992-03-18
Abstract: In order to assemble the components of an electrochemical generator using lithium, which are in the form of thin films and comprise a lithium- or lithium alloy-based negative electrode and a solid polymer electrolyte with conduction using the lithium ion, an intermediate assembly is used which consists of a thin film of lithium supported by a film of inert plastic with controlled adhesion to the lithium, as a precursor of the negative electrode. This intermediate assembly can be produced, inter alia, by rolling a sheet of lithium between two films of inert plastic.

IPC: B25J15/04
Filed: 1988-03-10
Granted: 1991-07-03
Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for detachably connecting a tool to a manipulating device, e.g. an industrial robot. The apparatus includes a tool holder and a coupling member fastened to the robot. The coupling member has a free frontal surface on which the tool holder rests. A plurality of air channels and electric contacts merge into the free frontal surface in a peripheral region thereof. Four projecting centering pins are provided in the center of the free frontal surface. The tool holder is provided with correspondingly located air channels and electric contacts as well as with a centrally arranged centering disc which is rigid in circumferential direction and axially resilient. The disc has apertures in which the centering pins enter when the tool holder is fixed to the coupling member. Thus, the tool holder is precisely centered and all pneumatic and electric connections are automatically established.

IPC: B22D11/14
Filed: 1987-12-19
Granted: 1992-03-11
Abstract: The outflowing casting metal on the path to solidification is no longer subjected to reoxidation and degassing of the casting metal in case of unkilled melts and can immediately be performed ahead of the casting process in a method for continuous casting of metal strands from high-melting metals with cross-sections close to the end dimensions according to the principle of the communicating pipes, and further a temperature and analysis correction can be performed. These conditions are fulfilled by pressing the casting metal from a higher disposed storage container through the communicating channel pipe (8) into a pressure vessel (13) with a gas dome (20), where the casting metal is further transported through an immersion pipe (14), which immerses into the casting metal through the gas dome, into a substantially vertically oscillating independent continuous casting die (15) and where the casting strand formed is deflected in an arc from the vertical direction into the horizontal direction and is withdrawn.

Abstract: A magnetic mass spectrometer, used to purify ions in a polyisotopic mixture wherein non-ionized particles which exit the ion source (50) are collected in the vacuum chamber (52) and are then introduced into a thermal cycle pump (62) and returned to the ion source (50) to increase the yield. This purifier will both separate a desired isotope, such as iodine-123, from the polyisotopic mixture produced by a conventional small cyclotron, and increase the recovery rate, thus making feasible its use in nuclear medicine.
Patent EP-0329788-B1 (EP)
IPC: F16F9/10
Filed: 1988-06-08
Granted: 1993-10-13
Abstract: A damper in which movable plates (6) to which an external force is transmitted and fixed plates (7) which are not operatively connected to the movable plates are arranged alternately in a casing (1) holding a viscous fluid (A) therein. Both of the movable plates (6) and fixed plates (7) are formed so that they can be displaced in the direction of the thickness thereof. Accordingly, the distance between these plates can be set uniform owing to the aligning effect thereof, so that it is possible to prevent these plates from receiving an unduly large force and from being thereby damaged. In order for the braking force of the damper to be regulated manually, the tolerance of displacement of the movable plates (6) and fixed plates (7) is set changeable, or the number and size of one or both of the movable plates (6) and fixed plates (7) are set variable. In order that the braking force of the damper should not go astray due to variations in the ambient temperature, a temperature-sensitive deformable element is provided, or one or both of the movable plates (6) and fixed plates (7) are made from a temperature-sensitive deformable material. This enables the braking force to be set constant automatically.

Title: Process for the selection of large dna segments
IPC: C12N15/10
Filed: 1989-03-21
Granted: 1993-09-22
Abstract: DNA segments from mutants can be obtained very straightforwardly by isolating from the strain to be mutated the total DNA, cleaving the latter into small fragments and integrating into a temperature- sensitive plasmid with another selection marker which is selectable in E. coli, transforming the hybrid plasmid population obtained in this way into the starting strain, selecting the transformants by selection for the marker, eliminating the hybrid plasmids by raising the temperature above the threshold of the temperature-sensitive plasmid, and selecting the mutants by renewed selection for the marker. Construction of a cosmid gene bank with the DNA of these mutants results, by selection for the marker which has been introduced and is selectable in E. coli and for the cosmid-intrinsic marker, directly in cosmids which contain the mutated gene.

Title: Safe lock
IPC: E05B15/16
Filed: 1989-04-17
Granted: 1992-08-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a safe lock for two-bit keys, with a bolt guided on the lock bottom and with a tumbler assembly mounted on the bolt, the bolt (1) having a long hole for the turn pin, a long hole for the tumbler bearing spindle and a recess (1a) for the key drive bit. The danger of such locks is that intruders attempt to knock the bolt back with a spike through the keyhole. The object of the invention is, by constructive measures, to increase the safety against manipulation and to prevent the lock from being broken open. This is achieved in that the lock bolt (1) has a rectangular depression (1b), in that a tough protective plate (3) is mounted displaceably in this depression, and in that this plate has a keyhole (3b) and a circular orifice, through which engages the tumbler bearing spindle fixed to the case. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for the manufacture of hollow bodies from thermoplastics material
IPC: B29C48/48
Filed: 1989-06-24
Granted: 1992-11-11
Abstract: The invention concerns a process and an apparatus for the production of hollow bodies from thermoplastic material, the wall of which is in the form of a laminate, by extrusion blow molding. Tubular preforms for making the hollow bodies are first produced in an intermittent mode of operation, the wall thereof also being in the form of a laminate which includes a suitable number of layers. Within an extrusion head having an annular storage chamber for receiving the laminate-formation preform and an annular piston for emptying the storage chamber, the flows of material for forming the layers of the laminate of the preform are passed through the annular piston into the storage chamber in which they combine to form the laminate. The width of the outlets at which the flows of material issue from the annular piston can be so selected that it is proportional to the thickness of the respective layers to be formed therefrom in the laminate produced in the storage chamber.
