Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device to restore a staircase. The restoration is effected with the aid of new tread elements (14) which are laid on top of the old steps (11, 12) and are fixed thereto with the aid of tread profiles. The cavities remaining between the old steps, the new tread elements and the profiles are filled with an assembly foam (18) which has a reaction time of several hours and during this time undergoes at most a twofold increase in volume. As a result, it is possible to foam the old steps, the profiles and optionally the tread elements in place, subsequently to assemble and align the different parts precisely, and finally to allow the assembly foam to harden. The tread profile (1) possesses three legs (2, 3, 4) arranged above one another and parallel to one another and a profiled part (6) connecting the latter, which is provided on its visible side with at least one receiving groove (9) intended to receive a cover layer (7). <IMAGE>

Title: Fast packetized data delivery for digital networks
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1988-02-18
Granted: 1993-04-28
Abstract: A method and apparatus for decreasing delay and use of data processing resources in the reliable transmission of data frames in a packet network. In transmitting data from a source to a destination over a plurality of intermediate data switching points, the data processing required for each frame is selectively varied at each data switching point, according to the requirements for transmission of data frames of a message and of the succeeding link used for that message. A virtual link address is transmitted with each data frame which is translated into the mode of processing the frame at the data switching point, and into the virtual and real address of the next data link. Advantageously, such an arrangement allows for minimizing the data processing load and delay at each protocol handler of the data path through the packet network.

Abstract: In a process and apparatus for inductive hardening of the corrugated surface of a workpiece, in particular the toothing of a gearwheel or sprocket, a uniformly distributed hardness pattern reaching down to a controlled depth is achieved on the teeth by scanning the workpiece surface to be hardened with a single inductive heating coil (12), while the workpiece is taken past the inductive heating coil. A special final heating scanning the workpiece follows a preheating scanning the workpiece, it being possible for the preheating and final heating to be carried out at different controlled speeds. The repeated scanning of the workpiece (W) past a single inductor coil (12) permits the preheating and final heating of workpieces which cannot be taken directly past separate inductor coils in the axial direction, as is the case, for example, with planetary gearwheels having inner ring toothing and a closed end (12), or as is the case with spurgear wheels which have a flange projecting beyond the cylindrical tooth face or a radially projecting shoulder. <IMAGE>

A message contains a master address which is subjected to an arbitration operation, a slave address with space for a slave address acknowledge bit, a control signal with space for a control acknowledge bit, and one or more data bytes. Per data byte an indication of the "last" byte is also transmitted and space is reserved for a data acknowledge bit. When a data acknowledge bit is not correctly received, the data byte in question is repeated until at the most the maximum frame length is reached. The remainder of a message is then placed in a next frame. If an address or control acknowledge bit is not correctly received, the relevant frame is terminated. In case of a plurality of bytes in a message, the first frame thereof has a lock control signal that is activated upon communication of at least one data byte. Moreover, the last byte of the message is put in a separate frame that has an unlock control signal which is activated upon communication of the last byte.

Abstract: A fiber optic coupler is formed by providing a glass tube having a longitudinal aperture (12) extending therethrough. Glass optical fibers (22, 24) each having a core, cladding and coating are disposed within the longitudinal aperture, the fibers extending beyond each end thereof. The coating is removed from that portion of the fibers in the midregion of the tube but remains on that portion of the fibers extending into the ends of the apertures. The coating can be removed prior to inserting the fibers into the tube, or it can be removed from that portion of the fibers in the midregion of the tube by oxidation, depolymerization or the like. The aperture is formed by a plurality of flattened walls, the dimensions and orientations of which are such that the cross-section of the aperture in the central region of the tube is symmetrical with respect to a plane passing through the longitudinal axis of the tube. At any cross-section of the aperture that is adjacent the coated regions of the fibers, each fiber coating contacts two walls of the aperture. The fibers are held taut to effect a tension therein, and the midregion of the tube is heated, collapsed about the fibers, and drawn to reduce the diameter thereof over a predetermined length.

Title: Device and procedure for treating the sliding surfaces of winter sport devices
IPC: A63C11/08
Filed: 1989-01-23
Granted: 1993-07-21
Abstract: The device allows a method to be carried out to treat the sliding surfaces of winter sports devices. The latter are retained with their sliding surface towards the top. Their treatment takes place by means of a heatable plate with a porous insert which can be placed resiliently against the sliding surface and is displaceable relative to the latter in the longitudinal direction. From a trough, the insert can receive a material which can be heated at least to a pasty state. A storage device for porous sheet material dispenses said material, when required, between the sole and the sliding surface. The treatment can comprise: the removal of remains of used agent from the sliding surface, which agent is absorbed by the sheet material, and/or the pre-heating of the sliding surface, the sole sliding over the sliding surface without sheet material, and/or the application of new agent from the trough, the sheet material allowing fine distribution. In this case, the agent penetrates into microcavities of the covering and any cracks in the sliding surfaces and forms a smooth, even and elastic layer on the sliding surface.
