Abstract: An apparatus for stepless control of electric loads by the phase angle principle includes a semiconductor switch element. A trigger circuit is connected to the semiconductor switch element for furnishing turn-on pulses for triggering the semiconductor switch element. The trigger circuit includes at least one current flow detector, a turn-on pulse pregenerator circuit, a switch and driver unit, and a time-dependent circuit element. The on-state angle of each current half-wave is compared with a maximum allowable limit value of the on-state angle through the use of the current flow detector and the time-dependent circuit element, and a further triggering of the semiconductor switch element is prevented if the maximum allowable limit value of the on-state angle is exceeded. An apparatus for controlling the brightness of an incandescent bulb includes a transformer having a primary winding with two terminals and a secondary winding connected to an incandescent bulb. An alternating voltage source has one pole connected to one terminal of the primary winding. The semiconductor switch element has one main electrode connected to the other terminal of the primary winding and another main electrode connected to the other pole of the alternating voltage source.

Abstract: A process is described for deasphalting and demetallizing crude petroleum or a fraction thereof containing asphaltenes and metals, in which:   said crude or its fraction is brought into contact with an organic carbonate, the operation being conducted in the homogeneous liquid phase, until a solid residue rich in asphaltenes and asphaltenic metals precipitates; and   said solid residue is separated from the homogeneous liquid phase.   After separating the solid the homogeneous liquid phase can be cooled to separate an oil-rich refined liquid phase from an extracted liquid phase rich in organic carbonate. The separation of the extracted and refined liquid phases can also be achieved by adding a liquid solvent more polar than the carbonate, with or without cooling.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FR91/00159 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 24, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 24, 1991 PCT Filed Feb. 27, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO91/13275 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 5, 1991.A transmission (1) has an input (2) connected to an engine (3). At a speed above idling, a centrifugal clutch (9) connects the engine to a pump (8) of a torque converter (7) and also to a sun gear (14) of a planetary gear train (13). A turbine (11) of the torque converter is connected to a ring gear (16) of the planetary gear train, and a planet carrier (18) is connected to an output (4) of the transmission. A free wheel (22) mounted between the ring gear and a stationary housing prevents reverse rotation of the ring gear. At low engine speeds, the power passes via the sun and planet gears through the planet carrier to the output, while reaction torque exerted by the planet gears on the ring gear is greater than forward torque transmitted through the torque converter, so that the ring gear is held stationary by the free wheel. In this condition, the planetary gear train acts as a mechanical speed reducer. As the engine speed increases, the torque transmitted by the converter to the ring gear exceeds the reaction torque of the planet gears, driving the ring gear in the forward direction at progressively increasing speeds that approach the speed of the planet carrier, thus progressively decreasing the speed reduction of the gear train. The planetary gear train serves to add the engine power received directly at the sun gear and via the hydraulic torque converter at the ring gear.

Abstract: A measuring device (1) is used for electrically measuring a resistor (3) forming a measuring sensor (2), which can be formed, for example, by a Pt100 resistor. A storage capacitor (11) is connected in parallel with this resistor (3). The measuring resistor (3), together with the storage capacitor (11), is connected to a measuring instrument (5) via two lines (4). The line length can be several metres in this arrangement. A power source (10a, 10b) can be used for sending a constant measuring current through the measuring circuit. Across the resistor (3), a voltage proportional to the current is dropped, to which voltage the parallel-connected storage capacitor (11) is also charged up. If the constant current is then disconnected, the charging voltage of the storage capacitor (11) can be remotely measured without voltage drops occurring across the line resistances since measuring takes place virtually without current. In this measuring method, thermal voltages occurring in the measuring circuit can also be taken into consideration. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for testing a fitting (2a) driven by a solenoid (1a), which has a closing part (4a). It also relates to a device for testing such a fitting (2a). It is provided that during a switching process of the fitting (2a), the value of the current intensity (It) in the solenoid (1a) is recorded as operating current intensity (IA) at the time when the locking part (4a) starts to move. From this recorded operating current intensity (IA), the force acting due to the magnet (1a) on the locking part (4a) at the time when it starts to move is determined as operating force (KA). The force (KA) is compared with a setpoint and a signal is output when there is a deviation. The calibrating function (KF) is determined on a fitting (2b) of the same type in which the locking part (4b) is latched. The device for testing the fitting (2a) is distinguished by the fact that a current intensity meter (6a) in the circuit of the solenoid (1a) is connected to a computer (9) which is also connected to a memory (10) for a calibrating function (KF). The computer (9) is followed by a setpoint comparison section (11) and, for example, a signal generator (12). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for sorting objects (12) according to preselected weight and visually ascertainable criteria. Each object (12) is singulated and transported between adjacent pairs of a plurality of roller assemblies (100) attached to a conveyor chain (40) to be freely rotatable on a vertically slidable axis oriented normal to the conveying path. A control surface (162) along the conveying path causes rotation in the roller assemblies and in the object supported therebetween, increasing the surface of the object accessible for optical scanning (70). Mounted between each pair of roller assemblies (100) is a weighing cradle (103) subtending the object transported therebetween. The weighting cradle (103) elevates and captures the object from its support between roller assemblies (100) so that the cradle (103) can engage a load cell (78). Pivotally mounted between each pair of rollers and subtending the object transported therebetween is an elongated discharge plate (104). Each object (12) is unloaded at an appropriate discharge location by pivoting upwardly the discharge plate (104).

Abstract: In an apparatus for the preparation of hot beverages, such as coffee, tea and the like, a heat source (16) heats a boiler (2) whose volume is a fraction of the volume of a fresh water container (1) and into which a rising pipe (7) is immersed from above. The boiler (2) fills with water via a connecting line (3) which is connected between the bottom of the fresh water container (1) and the lid of the boiler (2) and contains a float valve (4) upon which the boiler pressure acts in the closing direction and which blocks the connecting line (3) when the boiler (2) is full. When the boiling temperature is reached, the water flows due to steam pressure from the boiler (2) via the rising pipe (7) completely in one surge into a filter (11). Subsequently, the boiler (2) again fills suddenly with fresh water due to the vacuum occurring in the boiler when cold water flows in, which fresh water is then again heated to the boiling temperature. This operation is repeated several times until the entire quantity of water from the fresh water container (1) has been used up. The preparation of hot beverages thus takes place in a manner comparable to manual brewing of coffee in that hot water is conveyed into the filter (11) in surges at short intervals. <IMAGE>
