Abstract: The stations (S1to SN) are interconnected in series by a ring (A), and the system of the invention includes a spare ring (AS) interconnecting the stations in series, together with two self-healing circuits (CAM, CAV) in each station coupler (CS) between the two connectors (8, 9) of the coupler and its insertion relay (RI). The couplers are interconnected by cords (10; 11) each containing the ring (A), the spare ring (AS), and two detection links (12, 13). Each self-healing circuit includes a relay (6) and a relay control circuit (7) connected to a detection link whose other end is connected to ground in another self-healing circuit. Each relay (6) has fixed contacts (a1, a2, b1, b2), a first moving contact (C1) connected to the insertion relay (RI), and a second moving contact (C2). The second moving contacts (C2) of the two self-healing circuits (CAM, CAV) in the same coupler are interconnected by a spare link (L). In each self-healing circuit, the moving contacts co-operate with the fixed contacts so that in a rest position they interconnect the insertion relay (RI) with the ring (A) and the spare link (L) with the spare ring (AS), and in a working position they connect the insertion relay (RI) to the spare link (L).

Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus for generating a magnetic field in one or two processing spaces. The apparatus compri­ses a flux generator, which can be a permanent magnet, an electromagnet or a super-conducting magnet. The flux genera­tor is located centrally between two parallel plates, so that the remaining space between the two plates functions as the processing space. By using a hollow flux generator, the space within the flux generator can be used as a second processing space. This configuration leads to a simple construction of both the flux generator an the inner circuit.

Abstract: The invention relates to the sector of charges releasable from an aircraft to which they are fastened and particularly the beam safety device preventing the arming of the charge when the latter is attached under the aircraft. 
<??>A mechanical beam safety device according to the invention involves utilising the drive of a feeler (13) freely rotatable in a support (14), by means of a cable (1) which passes inside said feeler and of which one end is fastened to an aircraft and the other to means for arming a fuse for the detonation of a charge; fastened to this cable (1) is a ball (21) which, in the event of a pull on the cable (1), comes into contact with the feeler (13) and, after the release of the holding system (25) as a result of a sufficient pull on the cable (1), drives it into contact with the aircraft when the charge is fastened under the aircraft, preventing any additional displacement of the cable (1). During the release of the charge, the cable can be pulled freely and allow the charge to be armed. 
<??>The invention is used for bombs, the detonating fuse of which is screwed along the axis of the bomb, and for all bombs of the M.K. type.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fast complementary emit­ter follower drivers/buffers to be used in either a CMOS or pure complementary bipolar environment. The output driver (22) comprises top NPN and bottom PNP output tran­sistors (T1, T2) with a common output node (N) connected therebetween. A terminal (15) is connected to the said output node (N) where the output signal (VOUT) is avail­able. The pair of bipolar output transistors is biased between the first and second supply voltages (VH, GND). The output driver is provided with a voltage translator circuit (S) connected between the base nodes (B1, B2) of the output transistors (T1, T2). Logic signals (IN1, IN2), supplied by a preceding driving circuit (21), are applied to said base nodes. According to the invention, the volt­age translator circuit (S) comprises two diodes (D1, D2) connected in series, preferably implemented with a main bipolar transistor having a junction shorted by a diode connected transistor to form a Darlington-like configura­tion. As a result, the voltage shift VS between the base nodes is selected to have the said output transistors operating at an operating point which ensures minimum delay and power consumption. In a typical bipolar technol­ogy, VS is made to be a approximately equal to 1,5 V. Additional features comprise the connection of a capacitor (C) between the base nodes and resistances (R1, R2) to the base nodes. The preceding driving circuit may be a CMOS logic gate or an ECL logic circuit.

Abstract: The installation has a brake valve (A) which feeds the flow of pressure medium delivered from a pressure medium source (13) via a flow regulating valve (20) to a brake installation (81) and/or a reservoir (14) and/or a consuming unit. The brake installation has a handbrake (117), by means of which the vehicle can be immobilised. With the handbrake released and the pump switched on, an electrical switch (116) is actuated, by means of which the brake valve is activated. In addition a pressure limiting valve (110) is provided, which in driving operation keeps the vehicle brake open below a low pressure. During a braking sequence a correspondingly high brake pressure is built up by way of the brake valve in the brake line (79) and hence in the brake cylinder. As well as being triggered by the footbrake (105), the brake valve can also be triggered by an electromagnet (99) which can be activated by a relay (118) and the handbrake. The brake cylinder (81) is located on the trailer of the vehicle and can also be actuated via a pressure reservoir (133) arranged on this. Control valves (134, 137, 144) serve for controlling the brake cylinder and the pressure reservoir. The supply line (131) to these units is connected via a line coupling (130) to the hydraulic line (79) on the towing vehicle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a conveyor which can be used as both an accumulating conveyor (33) for accumulating goods suspended on hangers, in particular pieces of clothing, and a storage or slope conveyor (22), and is characterised in that a traction mechanism (2) revolving in the transport direction takes hold of the hanger hooks (1) at their tip (1a) and the transport of the hangers takes place outside the region of their centre of gravity (1b). 
<??>As a result, both the charging point and the delivery point can be designed functionally reliably. As the traction mechanism, which is designed as a toothed belt (2) can be supported or stayed at any point without impairing or limiting the transport capacity, the accumulating conveyor (33) thus designed can be of any length. A guide strip (3), which runs parallel to the direction of transport and is formed on the basic body (5) of the conveyor, guarantees that the hangers transported cannot swivel and thus slip out of the conveyor. The useability is determined exclusively by the selection of the traction mechanism (2).
