Title: Arrangement for delivering gas
Inventor: WICHTERICH HANS
IPC: G05D16/06
Filed: 1981-10-29
Granted: 1987-05-27
Abstract: Valve means for the withdrawal of gas, at a low pressure suitable for a domestic appliance from a high- pressure vessel (11) includes a main closure valve (13) for connection to the vessel (11). The valve (13) has a displaceable closure element (22) which is actuated by a tappet (81) which is connected to the spring- loaded diaphragm (76) of an attached reducing valve (14). When the pressure of gas at the outlet side falls, the diaphragm (76) deforms, thus moving the tappet (81) to cause displacement of the closure element (22) to open the main valve (13). The reducing valve (14) may be installed at the lower end (92) of a receiving chute (91), in which a gas cylinder (11) with the main valve (13) attached is slidable downwards, to cause engagement of the main (13) and reducing (14) valves by means of a simple push-in connection. <IMAGE>

Title: Electric resistance welding process for welding aluminium pieces, and apparatus and electrode therefor
Inventor: URECH WERNER
IPC: B23K11/30
Filed: 1983-02-02
Granted: 1988-08-25
Abstract: Spot- and projection-welding of aluminum sheets has always been connected with difficulties mainly because of the surface layers of aluminum oxide, and even by pickling, these difficulties could be only partly eliminated. The main difficulties have always been insufficient electrode life times, the unsatisfactory quality of the weld and especially the unsolved problem of achieving good quality welding and long electrode-life when using un-pretreated aluminum sheets. The problem has been solved in principle by using electrodes having profiled contact-surfaces, by means of which the layer of oxide is broken during pre-pressing and a direct contact between the electrode and unoxidized material of the workpiece is provided, the contact-resistance of which is lower than the portion of the overall resistance of the point of weld formed by the metal of the aluminum sheets to be welded together. In an appropriate welding machine, the means for switching-on the welding current are controlled in such a manner that the welding current is switched on only after a sufficiently large contact area and therewith a sufficiently low contact-resistance of this contact has been reached.

Granted: 1990-05-31
Abstract: A plurality of marks are carried on a movable member, the position of which represents a measured quantity. An image of a mark is projected onto a surface having a large number of detectors. The output signals of the detectors are fed into an evaluation circuit, which sequentially determines the intensity distribution on the detector and, thereby, the position of the mark by means of comparison of fixed threshold values with each of the detector signals and determines the centroid of the thus obtained intensity value distribution. The position of the centroid is a measure of the quantity to be measured.
