Abstract: The present invention provides driveaway assistance for a motor vehicle having braking equipment which, in the standstill condition of the motor vehicle, automatically or under the control of a vehicle driver summons up braking forces needed for the standstill condition. To assist start-up (driveaway) of the motor vehicle through a reduction of the braking forces generated in the standstill condition, a driveaway request or a vehicle driver is determined when defined conditions, which are to be met for driveaway of the motor vehicle, exist in the standstill condition. Once a driveaway request has been recognized, the operating state of the motor vehicle is checked until an operating condition required for driveaway exists. Once such an operating condition is reached, the braking equipment of the motor vehicle is controlled in such a way that its braking forces generated in the standstill condition are reduced to allow driveaway of the vehicle.

At least one of the electronic components (5) is a power semiconductor component. The silicon nitride layers making up the electrically insulating layer (3) are essentially formed by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), and at least one of the layers is formed by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. Formation of the conductive tracks (4) is carried out by electrolytic deposition of copper on the electrically insulating layer (3). The lower surface of the Si wafer (1) has grooves that form channels for the flow of a cooling fluid. The lower surface of the Si wafer (1) can be covered with a SiO2 layer and an electrically insulating layer of silicon nitride. An Independent claim is given for an electronic module comprising an electronic device mounted on the above-described substrate.

Abstract: A retrieval device or snare for grasping foreign articles and retrieving them from the body of a patient. The retrieval device includes a catheter open at both ends such that it may be advanced along a guidewire. The distal end of a wire is attached to the first catheter near an opening system within the catheter. The opening system may be a slot or a pair of holes. A portion of the wire is oriented external of the catheter. Manipulation of the proximal end of the wire causes a portion of the wire to form a loop external of the catheter. The catheter may be tapered, as may be the wire. A reinforcing- material may be attached to the portion of the wire that forms the loop. Another reinforcing material may also be attached to the proximal portion of the wire in order to stiffen the wire and improve its pushability. A guidewire may be inserted into a patient and maneuvered to an appropriate location within the patient, the catheter may be advanced over the guidewire, the wire attached to the catheter may be manipulated to capture a foreign body with the loop, and the catheter and foreign body may be withdrawn from the patient.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for treating bleaching liquors from pulping processes based on organic acids. The process is characterized in that inorganic acid, such as nitric acid, phosphoric acid and/or sulphuric acid, is added into a bleaching liquor obtained from the bleaching or a stage closely associated with bleaching, whereby organic acids contained in the bleaching liquor are released into the bleaching liquor. The organic acids are then separated from the bleaching liquor and recycled to the cooking stage to be used as cooking chemicals. The nitrogen-, phosphor- and/or sulphur-containing product thereby produced, from which organic acids have been separated, is recovered to be used as a fertilizer or as raw material for a fertilizer.

Title: Textile fabric consisting of natural fibres
Inventor: SOMMER KLAUS
IPC: D04H1/46
Filed: 2001-03-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a textile fabric consisting of natural fibres, preferably bast fibres and especially hemp fibres, that are compacted by means of fluid beams. Surprisingly, coarsely retted bast fibres having a high portion of short fibres, fibre dusts and other fibre escort substances can be processed by means of fluid beam hardening to form textile fabrics having a high tear strength. Surprisingly good processing can be put down to the fact that fibre felting occurs in addition to the usual fibre interlacing caused by the short fibres and fibre dusts.
