Abstract: A pacemaker lead (1) having a feed line (2) between a pacemaker (4) and an electrode head (6) for implantation into the tissue of the heart (5) as well as having an inner duct (16) for a stylet or the like possesses at its distal end a hollow cavity (9) which belongs to the electrode head (6), is open and accessible through the duct (16) from the proximal end of the pacemaker lead (1) in the axial direction and has a coupling for a drawing element or stylet (10) insertable from the proximal end, so that the anchorage of the electrode head (6) can be released, if necessary, by a tensile force applied directly to the electrode head, that is to say, there is no risk of tearing of the feed line (2) or of the connection of the latter to the electrode head (6). The coupling can be designed in various ways, preferably with projections (11) protruding into the interior of the hollow cavity (9), by means of which a corresponding counter-piece (12) can be brought into operative connection with the drawing element or stylet (10), especially by rotation.

Abstract: A pacemaker catheter (1) with at least two poles spaced apart in the axial direction and with coils (3 and 4) or similar leads leading to said poles within insulations has at least one first pole (2) which is formed by a metal ring or a pole sleeve (5) and connected in an electrically conducting manner to the corresponding lead. This connection is brought about by at least one electrically conducting metal band (6) which is connected, on the one hand, to the lead or coil (6) belonging to the pole sleeve (5) and, on the other hand, to the pole sleeve (5), so that a soldered or welded connection for safe contact of high strength is possible and even dynamic loads in the pole region remain without effect on this electrical connection due to the flexibility of the metal band.

Abstract: A continuous process is described for the production of an aluminum master alloy, e.g. an Al-Ti-B grain refining rod, in which molten aluminum is continuously passed through a confined reaction zone. Particulate titanium and/or boron precursor compounds, e.g. salts, are continu­ously added to the molten aluminum in the reaction zone and the content of the reaction zone is continuously stirred to submerge the salts within the aluminum melt and form an alloy therewith. A mixture of formed molten alloy and en­trained reaction products is continuously transferred from a lower region of the reaction zone into a refining zone, with reaction product slag being collected on the surface of the molten alloy in the refining zone. The molten alloy formed is continously transferred via a transfer conduit from the refining zone to a casting station.

Abstract: A self converging, widescreen color picture tube system includes a widescreen, in-line color picture tube having a funnel, an electron gun assembly (28) for three in-line electron beams located in a neck at one end of the picture tube, and a faceplate with a viewing screen at the other end. The picture tube has a wide aspect ratio. A self converging widescreen deflection yoke (40) for deflecting the electron beams in the wide aspect ratio picture tube includes horizontal and vertical deflection windings. The yoke (40) is located by an initial flare section of the funnel and positioned along the longitudinal axis of the picture tube to make the tube reference line and the yoke deflection plane substantially coincident. To achieve substantial horizontal astigmatism correction at the extremes of the major axis of the wide viewing screen, the horizontal deflection winding is constructed to have a generally pincushion-shaped horizontal deflection field over the effective length of the field. The field is modified from that required of the horizontal deflection field in a comparable self converging narrowscreen yoke. The modification is made in accordance with the differences in centerscreen slope angles and S-spacing.

Abstract: A method and a device for cleaning lint and/or the like from the steam-laden air discharged from the laundry drum of a laundry drier are proposed. In a circulating-air laundry drier for example, the lint-laden air (13) issuing from the laundry drum (14) is introduced into a condenser (17') and then into a water-filled siphon (20) of a condensation-water circuit (12), and the lint (40,41) is transferred from the air to the water. The cleaned air, after passing through the condenser and the siphon, is conveyed by means of a fan through the heating system and to the drum again. The lint accumulated in the siphon and the lint (41) washed off from the wall of the siphon or of the condenser by means of water (43) are diverted via an overflow (26) into an intermediate vessel (28) and from there are pumped off into the condensation-water container (35) or into the drainage system by means of a pump (33). The cleaned condensation water is pumped out of a second stage (30) of the intermediate vessel (28) into the circuit by means of a pump (32). Condensation water is fed to the condensation-water circuit (12) via the air (13) in the siphon and condenser (17) and is discharged in a correspondingly equal quantity, together with the lint (40, 41), by means of the pump (33).   <IMAGE>
