Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving the propagation of magnetic fields by electrodynamic/magnetic transducers, particularly in telecommunication devices, such that static magnetic fields produced by the transducers are substantially shielded and dynamic magnetic fields are radiated in a substantially unimpeded manner, a magnetic cover which is substantially impermeable to static magnetic fields from an electrodynamic/magnetic transducer is used at least in the sound exit region of the transducer. The cover has a number of openings passing through it which are designed such that the cover provided with the openings still has a predetermined strength or stiffness with respect to its original strength or stiffness and is still mechanically mountable, the openings letting through a predetermined sound pressure level which can be produced by the transducer, and the openings spatially delimiting eddy currents on the cover which are produced by dynamic magnetic fields from the transducer, meaning that these eddy currents cannot develop to full strength.

Abstract: The barrier for stopping and absorbing the energy of falling rocks comprises a net (10) located between two posts anchored in the ground. It is held by carrying cables (14) connecting the posts to support plates (18) anchored in the ground. A fusible cable has a reduced elasticity and a modulus of elasticity less than the carrying cable. This cable has at each end locking device connecting the fusible and carrying cable assembly so that at rest the length of the fusible cable between the locking device is less than the length of the carrying cable. Each of the locking device lock the fusible cable on the carrying cable after the latter has been subjected to a traction force due to the fall of rocks. The fusible cable subsequently undergoes a traction force along its length following which it ruptures.

Abstract: When plain bearings are producing by thermal coating the coating flame also results in oxidation of a part of the coating material. To reduce this oxide formation and especially to lower the formation of oxide clusters the burner flame has a gas stream next to it which is oxygen-reduced in relation to air. Preferably only nitrogen (>/=99%) is used as cooling gas for the burner (51). The method provided for in the invention is preferably used to provide a connecting-rod eye with a sliding layer. The large connecting-rod eye (3) is subjected to pre-spindle trimming, cracking and further spindle trimming to the coating tolerance, sandblasted and microporously plasma-coated with an aluminium bronze. At the start of plasma spraying the plasma layer is deposited at a high temperature, which results in good adhesion of the plasma layer to the material of the connecting-rod eye and low porosity of the plasma layer. To prevent annealing of the material of the connecting-rod eye the deposit temperature of the plasma layer is lowered for that area which is removed by subsequent working of said plasma layer. After plasma coating the connecting-rod eye is opened by removing the bearing cap (9), which ruptures the plasma layer (16). The cap (9) is then screwed back on and the actual sliding layer created by fine spindle trimming. To improve the oil retention volume the plasma layer (16) has an annular groove (32). The invention is used in internal combustion engines.
