Abstract: The legs (23, 24) of welding guns (2), in particular for industrial robots, must be designed for the forces occurring during the welding operation, but they are then also to be of as small and as light a construction as possible. To fulfil these specifications, a welding gun (2) is now proposed whose bearing block (22) and legs (23, 24) are cured moulded parts of epoxy resin with carbon fibres embedded therein in a cross-linked manner. This results in a weight saving of at least 20 % compared with known welding-gun constructions with comparable strength. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to an air transfer system, especially for a fire alarm appliance, having an air inlet aperture (8) and an air outlet aperture (10); in order to enable the fire alarm appliance (2) to be arranged behind a wall (14) limiting the room (16) to be monitored, an air distributor (20), having two air ducts (22, 24) passing through the latter from one end to the other is provided. This air distributor (20) makes it possible to connect both the air inlet aperture (8) and the air outlet aperture (10) of the fire alarm appliance (2) to the room to be monitored, so that the function of the fire alarm appliance, in particular that of the fan (6) arranged therein, is not impaired by ambient conditions which differ from the ambient conditions prevailing in the room (16) to be monitored.

Abstract: A child resistant closure comprising outer (20) and inner (12) nested closure members each of which has a base wall and a peripheral skirt with sets of lugs on the inner surface of the outer base wall and the outer surface of the inner base wall adapted to engage each other when the outer closure is rotated for application to a container, but slip or cam past each other on inclined surfaces when the outer closure is rotated for removal. At least one integral spring finger (W) extends from one base wall toward the other base wall such that the outer closure member is held out of engagement with the inner closure member. To remove the closure, the outer closure member must be pressed downward, while simultaneously being rotated. The camming action of the lugs is then resisted by a frictional engagement of corners of the lugs on the outer closure with inclined surfaces on the lugs on the inner closure.

Abstract: The feeding machine (SE) has a feed component, means for handling the individual components and a control stage (SM) for the machine's various functions. Said control stage consists of modules (PM, SM, XM, AM) for the various functions in which the individual modules form reliable, independent units and are interconnected via interfaces. The modules are controlled by a computer overriding the control stage via which the transverse connections between the individual modules also pass. The fact that the modules are autonomous provides greater redundancy in the individual functions and allows them to be individually controlled. Thus the individual functions are interdependent to only a reduced extent and faults can be easily located.

Date Apr. 18, 1991.The process disclosed enables the "time domain aliasing cancellation" method to be extended systematically to larger block overlapping. The boundary conditions which, when using various modified transforms, the analysis and synthesis windows must comply with, can thus be given. The transform series must also be included in the design of each analysis and synthesis window in order to optimize for a given application, because this changes the boundry conditions with which an analysis window function can be determined. Design for analysis and synthesis windows have shown that analysis and synthesis properties obtained by multiple block overlapping are significantly better than those obtained by convential double block overlapping. The systematic method of the invention offers numerous possibilites for optimizing windows in special applications.

Abstract: An acoustic scanning method and apparatus implemented by transmitting ultrasonic pressure waves and receiving return echoes on a set of spatially non-overlapping acoustic lines scanned along a transducer array (6) with the active acoustic lines shifted and steered so that each acoustic line originates at an arbitrary point (4a-4d) on and at an arbitrary angle to the face of the array. In a preferred embodiment, an extension of each acoustic line may also pass through a substantially common vertex (4a-4d) that is not on the face of the transducer array (6), but preferably behind it a selectable distance to provide an extended field of view. The extended field-of-view is defined by the selectively variable location of the common vertex (4a-4d) of the acoustic lines and the physical ends of the array, may use the entire transducer array in the near-field, has high quality resolution in both near and far fields, and may simultaneously transmit and receive two or more ultrasound beams from the same transducer aperture. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A switching device for interrupting a circuit, three-terminal modules (13) being able to form the highly different devices which electrically have one or more terminals, if required with the addition of a neutral conductor path. At least one contact point (2) is arranged in the three-terminal module (13) in a main current path (1). A branch (7) having a current-limiting device (8; 18) leads to a separate connection (9) from the main current path (1). The switching device forms two connection sides, for an input circuit (14) and for an output circuit (15), which, when the switch contacts of the contact point (2) are opened, in each case form a current path between two electrical terminals in each case on each of the connection sides. In consequence, decoupling of the input circuit (14) from the output circuit (15) is achieved when the switching device triggers, with separate energy conversion. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A mobile disinfection installation for the continuous disinfecting of hospital waste is described, it being possible for this installation to be arranged on a trailer, a mobile bridge or the like and thus be brought without difficulty to a place of use. The contaminated hospital waste is charged into a funnel, is passed from the latter through a cutting mechanism to a screw conveyor which is at disinfecting temperature, and is then passed onto a conveyor belt which discharges the waste, now reduced in volume and disinfected, which can then be disposed of in the same way as domestic refuse. By means of a logical distribution of space in the useful chamber of the disinfection installation, the components of the disinfection installation can be accommodated in the very limited space available, the compact installation producing excellent results because of the high power density of the individual components. <IMAGE>
