Abstract: The refuse bag comprises two sheet parts which are connected to one another and one of which is shorter than the other. The shorter sheet part (12) is extended by a wall part (16) which consists of an air-permeable, germ-inhibiting, flexible filter material. Once the refuse bag is full it can be sealed with a tie (20) and sterilised with steam in a sterilisation chamber. The material of the refuse bag is heat-resistant up to 134 DEG C. The steam penetrates the interior of the bag through the filter material (16) and sterilises the refuse. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The appts. (30) comprises essentially an anvil (32) and an opposed strap engaging member (80), with serrated faces (34, 112) through which the strap (U,L) passes. Anvil (32) has positioner that allows it to squeeze strap (U,L) against member (80) and plunger (92) at a first position, against plunger (92) only at a second position, and to disengage wholly at a third position. Strap engaging member (80) has a coaxial spring-loaded plunger (92) and is mounted on bearings (60) in cavity (54) of drive shaft (46), which itself is mounted on bearings (44) in bore (42) of support frame (40). The axis (58) of member (80) is offset (X) from the axis (48) of drive shaft (46), so rotation of the drive shaft confers an orbital motion to member (80). When the motion is applied to strap (U,L) clamped between anvil (32) and member (80), it creates friction between the strip faces and forms a friction weld conventionally. When anvil (32) is moved to the second position, the orbital motion is disengaged and smooth-faced plunger (92) maintains pressure on strap (U,L) while the weld cools.

Date Nov. 11, 1993To effect failure detection and communication between the modules in a modular control system for an electrically driven vehicle in which modules are interconnected by a serial data bus, one line of the serial bus may be biased high or low by modules of the system when a fault is detected. This is detected by a kill system of the modules to which disable safety related functions of each module are applicable. Modules other than the remote control module can include wake up circuitry which supplies power to the modules at start up, or deactivated modules, when the data line is biased high. The modules preferably operate as finite state machines with each module storing in its memory network variables required for the operation of that module. The network variables include the state of other modules, external demand signals, and measured variables of the system.

Abstract: A process and an arrangement are disclosed for operating a composite power station with a circulating fluidized bed furnace for solid fuels, in particular brown coal. The object of the invention is to recover and use combustion gas with high caloric values, i.e. to ensure an optimum post-combustion of the flue gas in order to achieve a maximum entrance temperature in the gas turbine. For that purpose, the flue gas partial current (15) is diverted in the substoichiometrically operated area of the fluidized bed furnace, upstream of the secondary air inlet (5), or the boiler is substoichiometrically operated as a carburetor and fresh air is added to the flue gas after the flue gas is cleaned and before it is subsequently burned. To implement this process, the combustion gas channel (15) is embedded in the substoichiometrically operated area of the fluidized bed furnace, upstream of the secondary air inlet (5), or the air channel is subdivised upstream of the boiler into controllable partial channels. One partial channel is embedded in the fluidized bed furnace and the other partial channel is embedded in the flue gas channel or in the post-combustion device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a panel for so-called sectional doors, in which a number of panels are hinged together by means of hinge parts which form part of the panel. Each panel consists of an elongated body part, which is formed by two side plates (2,2';30,30') lying a distance apart and along the long narrow sides contains the hinge parts (3,4) for forming the hinged connection. One hinge part (3) contains an arc-shaped nose, the arc-shaped outside wall (12) of which connects virtually directly to one side wall (8) of the body part, and the inside wall (13) running concentrically herewith merges through an acute angle into the other side wall (7) of the body part. The other hinge part (4) has a supporting part lying near one side wall (7') of the body part and bearing an essentially cylindrical thickened part (14), and a concentric wall (17) running at a distance therefrom which with the thickened part leaves a space free for the accommodation of the nose of the other hinge part of an adjacent panel. This concentric wall extends from the foot of the supporting part to the other side wall (8') of the body part and merges through an acute angle into said wall. Through this shape of the hinge parts, a hinged connection which is safe for fingers is obtained between the panels. The invention also relates to a section hinge consisting of two section parts, the shape of which corresponds essentially to the above-described hinge parts. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system and method are described which take an arbitrarily assembled collection of nodes on a bus or network and imposes an optimized hierarchical tree structure where there is only one root node. Nodes having both parent and child nodes are considered branch nodes while nodes having only parent nodes are leaf nodes. Loops or cycles in the physical topology are resolved into a logical topology that is acyclic and directed. A signaling scheme is developed in which nodes, via on board communications hardware, signal all connected nodes and respond accordingly until hierarchical relationships are established. Cycles are resolved by intelligently breaking links to yield an acyclic graph. Direction is established by each node recognizing its parent/child status with respect to connected nodes until a single node is established as a root node.

Abstract: This invention aims at providing water treatment techniques capable of carrying out a high-performance water purifying treatment by efficiently removing a synthetic organic compound, such as a surface active agent for a detergent and components of agricultural chemicals from contaminated water having a comparatively low load of, for example, BOD. To achieve this object, a utilizable filter medium formed by depositing a substrate having a specific utilizability by the target microorganisms on a porous base material, such as charcoal, is used as the filter medium, with which contaminated water to be treated is brought into contact under aerobic conditions. Using the utilizable filter medium in this manner enables specified microorganisms having a high efficiency of removing synthetic organic contaminants to be selectively utilized, and synthetic organic compounds to be efficiently removed. <IMAGE>
