Patent DE-4022856-A1 (DE)
Title: Automatic brake light switch of motor vehicle - includes contact at acceleration pedal to give early warning to following drivers when foot is taken from pedal
Inventor: RINGWALD EUGEN
IPC: B60Q1/44
Filed: 1990-07-18
Abstract: The sensing element at the accelerator  pedal can project from the foot contact surface and responds easily to removal of pressure. The switch can also be designed as an electronic proximity switch. The accelerator can also have two pressure points, with light and hard settings, so that the second hard setting has to be overcome before supply of fuel commences. The switch circuit can be interlocked with the hand brake to prevent lighting up of the brake light when the vehicle is stationary. USE/ADVANTAGE - Traffic accidents reduced by removing time normally taken between driver's foot leaving accelerator pedal and applying to brake pedal before braking light is switched on.

Title: Testing of high pressure methanol synthesis catalysts - to determine activity and long term stability
Inventor: SPINDLER HERBERT DR
IPC: G01N31/10
Filed: 1990-10-04
Abstract: In the determination of the activity and/or stability of high pressure methanol synthesis catalysts consisting of zinc oxide-chromium oxide mixts. used as moulded bodies or in fragmented and. opt. pre-reduced form, the novelty is that (a) the activity of a catalyst sample is measured by determining the reaction rate constant k(T) of methanol decomposition under normal pressure for one or more temps. T (pref. 350-400 deg.C), simultaneously determining the pore vol. dV of pores with below 7.5 nm. radius and using the produce of k(T).dV as a measure of activity under high pressure synthesis conditions; and (b) the long term stability is measured by dividing a catalyst sample into two portions, subjecting one portion to an initial 1-4 hr. heat treatment in a flowing H2-inert gas mixt. at 600-800 deg.C, subjecting both portions to determination of opt. the methanol decomposition reaction rate constant k(T) and the angular difference d2theta between the position 2theta of the x-ray diffraction line (400) of the distorted cubic ZnO-Cr2O3 mixed phase and that of the ZnCr2O4 line (400), and using the difference of the reciprocal product k(T), d2theta of the heat treated and fresh catalyst samples as a measure of long term stability under high pressure methanol synthesis conditions.

Title: Integrated temp. and humidity sensor - comprises resistor-track and capacitive humidity sensor on same substrate in close proximity for improved accuracy
Inventor: DEMISCH ULLRICH DIPL PHYS DR
IPC: G01N27/22
Filed: 1990-11-07
Abstract: Sensor consists of a capacitor (4) with at least 2 metal layers connected to electrodes (8,9) of which one contacts an insulating substrate and the other, porous to humidity, is placed above it and sepd. from it by a dielectric layer of polyethyleneimide. On the same substrate (2), either on the same side or on the opposite side, a thin film temp. sensor (10) has been placed, pref. using a meander shape, made of a metal with a high temp. coefft. of resistance. The substrate material is pref. an insulator and has a high thermal conductivity. It is pref. made of Si, ceramic or ceramic combinations. The temp. sensor value is pref. used to correct the signal of the humidity sensor, and can also be used as a temp. indicator. USE/ADVANTAGE - The temp. sensor is as close to the humidity sensor as possible, giving a temp. reading of the same volume as the humidity sensor indicates the humidity. The substrate can be made very thin, making the access-time of the sensors very short, allowing the sensors to be used for fast variations. The presence of the temp. sensor allows the absolute humidity and dewpoint of the volume to be calculated. (1/3)

Title: Material edge bonding and fixing - uses hot liquid plastics pressed into material by heated roller in piston unit or an iron to be cooled and hardened at cut edge or cutting zone
Inventor: PASCHA FRIEDRICH
IPC: B05C17/005
Filed: 1992-02-01
Abstract: To fix and/or bond defined zones (54) of paper or cardboard or fabric webs, esp. at cut edges or where they are to be cut, a heated and liq. plastic (58) is applied under heat to the material sections (54). A slide or roller (44), heated above the melting point of the plastic (58), is moved over the material sections (54) to press to the plastic into the pores and open zones of the material. The plastic (58) is cooled and hardened. Also claimed is an instrument as a manual pistol unit (10) with an electrical heating and mechanical feed for the heated plastics (58) and a heated roller (44) near the outlet (52) for the plastics (58). The roller width is greater than the plastics outlet width, to roll out the delivered plastics (58) against the material from its outlet. Pref. after the plastic has hardened, the web is cut at the treated sections (54). The separate sections, after treatment, are stacked with their plastics-impregnated edges over each other, to be heated while the edges are compressed. The plastic melts and disperses between the layers so that, when cooled and hardened, the separate layers are bonded together at the same edge. The heat is applied by heated pads, a hot gas flow such as hot air or by radiation. The material is perforated at the fixed edge zones. The liq. plastic can be delivered through a jet opening or it is on a carrier film to be applied by a heated iron as the sliding body. USE/ADVANTAGE - The method is used for applications such as bonding fabric cuttings into a pattern book, to bind fabrics and paper materials into books and the like. The technique gives a simple system to bond material edges, without damage to the fabric or paper.

Patent DE-4204806-A1 (DE)
Inventor: MUELLER-KIRSCHBAUM THOMAS DR
IPC: D06F34/22
Filed: 1992-02-18
Abstract: Doses of different washing agents are added to the washing liquor during the same washing operation but at different washing steps. Washing or bleaching agents are used which emit fluorescent radiation each in a different wavelength range when exposed to light. Light is brought by an optical waveguide to the measurement sites located in the washing liquor, and the light emitted therein is picked up and led by the same or another optical waveguide to a receiving and evaluating unit. The intensity of the fluorescent radiation is detected in one or several different wavelength ranges and the concentration of the used washing or bleaching agents in the washing liquor is determined therefrom by calibration of said agents. When several different washing agents are used in the same washing liquor, it is possible to determine their individual concentrations.

Inventor: ROSE MARTIN
IPC: B27D5/00
Filed: 1992-04-28
Abstract: Appts. is designed to dress the cut and visible edges of machined plastic and partic. thermoplastic lipping strips which have been applied continuously to the edges of sheets such as panels for furniture by using a feeder device fixed to the sheets concerned. The appts. has a mounting to hold at least one roller at the cut faces on the lipping; this holder and/or the roller is pressed at right angles to the moving lipping. Balls (15) are used as the roller. Each holder (9) mounts a ball (15) in an axial bore (14) so that it (15) moves readily without being able to fall out. The inner side of the ball (15) is spring-loaded (17) through a low friction member (18). The ball presses against the lipping strip (2) on the board (1) and rolls over the cut face (4). Compressed air blows through the annular gap around the ball and keeps the ball clean. In practice, the system uses a number of the balls (15) so that the whole of the cut face (4) is under pressure from the balls. ADVANTAGE - The cut faces concerned are subjected to a milling operation.
