Abstract: The invention relates to a bushing for fixing a fitting (4) to a hollow profile (7) which is provided with a projecting profiled part (10), by means of a fixing means penetrating the fitting (4). A gap (12) is formed between the profiled part (10) forming the bearing surface (16) of the fitting (4), and the wall (11) of the hollow profile (7). The bushing rests on an axial bearing surface (30) and is oriented against the fitting (4), from the hollow profile (7), and the fixing means mates with a recess of the bushing, said bushing penetrating the gap (12) and engaging with the hollow profile (7). The bushing (1) comprises at least one external screw thread (13), by which means it penetrates the front wall (16) of the profiled part (10) and the wall (11).

Abstract: Normal and abnormal diurnal cortisol secretion patterns are identified from human saliva samples by an in vitro method. First and second saliva samples are taken from one human individual at first and second predetermined times during the same day. A first cortisol concentration is determined in the first saliva sample, and a second cortisol concentration is determined in the second saliva sample. An abnormal secretion pattern is then compared to a normal secretion pattern with the help of a fuzzy logic algorithm. A function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is then determined for the human individual. Optionally, a testosterone level is determined from one of the samples and is used in combination with the cortisol concentrations to provide a redefined determination.

Abstract: Method for quality control of castings in which Eddy current testing of the casting is carried out by moving it with a defined speed through a magnetic field. The method can be combined with sound testing of the casting, whereby the casting is struck with a defined force and the resultant spectrum analyzed. Lastly optical measurements of the dimensions can be carried out using a number of laser measurement pairs. <??>Eddy current testing is carried out by movement of a part of the casting known to be defect free through the magnetic field and recording of the corresponding signal. Subsequent signals are compared with the resulting threshold values and only when the threshold is exceeded is a defect indicated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device comprising at least one safety shut-off control valve. A safety valve is optionally connected to said safety shut-off control valve, connected in series in the fluid flow path. In the safety shut-off control valve, a sealing valve is returned to a sealing position against a seat by means of a return spring, and is controlled by a linear actuator and a connecting rod for continuous adjustment of the valve opening. The connecting rod comprises two independent segments which are at least partially made from a ferromagnetic material and which are magnetically coupled to a magnetic coupling circuit that is activated by a coil. While electric power is being supplied to the coil, the magnetic field that said coil creates maintains the linking rod segments coupled to one another, such that the linear actuator can control the sealing valve. Once the power being supplied to the operating coil is interrupted, the segments separate and the sealing valve returns to said sealing position regardless of the position of the linear actuator. At the same time, the check valve of the safety valve is pushed back to the sealing position by a return spring. In this way, a continuous control valve with a double safety system is produced.

Abstract: A multipurpose engineering construction machine of the loader/shovel type has a mobile chassis centrally mounting a driving and control station. The chassis supports a loader assembly at the front, and a shovel assembly at the rear. These assemblies are capable of being controlled independently of one another via a hydraulic circuit selectively feeding a number of directional control valves that can be actuated by a manipulator and that control hydraulic actuators operating components of each assembly. The direction control valves are grouped together as a single module mounted transversely on the chassis between the rear axle and a frame supporting the shovel assembly. Hydraulic fluid supply is provided via a variable-throughput pump supplying a priority valve associated with the module. Distribution of fluid to each directional control valve is performed with a compensation balance allowing the deliveries to be adjusted in stages.
