Abstract: The compressible sealing element (1) comprises at least one piece made of a resilient foam (17). This foam has an open-cell content of at least 50% and has such a hardness that it requires a force of less than 2000 N to compress the sealing element (1) per meter length thereof to such an extent that the volume of a rectangular cuboid circumscribing the sealing element is reduced by 40%. The sealing element comprises a water-impermeable cover layer (18) which extends at least over its top surface. The sealing element is intended for filling at least partially the gaps between the stock rails (13) and the switch rails (12) in a railway switch to prevent the switch from being blocked in particular by snow. Advantages of the new sealing element is that it can easier be inserted in these gaps and that it has a smaller effect on the force required to close the switch so that it can also be applied closer to the free extremity of the switch rail (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the displaying of text on a display device (21) and an apparatus adapted for the carrying out the method according to the invention. Today's reading behavior of readers has changed drastically. More and more texts are distributed electronically and will be read on a display device, such as computer monitor, tablet computer, E-book reading device, Smart phones or even on high resolution TV sets. The reading of long texts with small print is a strenuous employment, especially of complex texts for the eyes and the brain. 
     This invention aims to support the reader in the task of reading text on a display device (21). In each case an area in the text to which the gaze is directed (view areas / focus area of the eyes) is highlighted, respectively. For this purpose the gaze direction is determined (101 to 108) in the reading device (21) and the highlighted region is controlled with gaze direction control (109). The highlighted area moves with this technique with the view. The reader's eye/brain is thus released from the complicated task of line tracking and can better concentrate on word recognition.
