Abstract: In a device to ease the change movement for movable rails or track parts (7, 7'), in particular of tongue rails, in which the rails (7, 7') are supported during the change operation by rollers (10, 10') pressed resiliently against the bottom edge of the rail foot, the rollers (10, 10') are pressed, in at least one end position (7, 7') of the change movement, resiliently onto a lateral edge (14, 15) of the rail foot. This makes it possible to combine the advantages of a reduction in the sliding friction during the change movement by means of a rolling friction with a flexible end-position securing of the respective adjustment position of the movable rail or track parts (7, 7') (Fig. 1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A free-piston engine having a fluid pressure unit comprises a cylinder (1) and a piston (2) arranged within the cylinder (1) and reciprocating therein between the bottom dead centre and the top dead centre. The piston (2) includes a plunger-shaped piston extension (8) cooperating with the fluid pressure unit. This fluid pressure unit is equipped with an auxiliary means for moving the piston in a direction to its bottom dead centre. This auxiliary means comprises a connecting channel adapted to communicate a liquid pressure source with a room in which the plunger-shaped piston extension (8) extends and which room is closed on one side by an axial face of the piston extension which is directed such that, by pressure loading the axial face, the piston (2) is moved towards the bottom dead centre. According to the invention said axial face is formed on a ring (45) slidably arranged on the plunger-shaped extension (8), said plunger-shaped extension comprising a stop adapted for engagement by the ring (45) when it is moved for displacing the piston (2) to its bottom dead centre.

Abstract: Lors de la purification de courants de gaz de fumée contenant de faibles quantités d'ammoniac, notamment après une dénitration, il faut veiller à ce que cette substance-trace ne passe pas dans l'environnement avec les cendres volantes ou avec l'eau de lavage extraite de la lessive de gaz de fumée. Dans un procédé connu, cette eau de lavage, après que l'ammoniac en ait été séparé dans une large mesure, est pulvérisée dans le courant de gaz de fumée en amont du séparateur sec et y est évaporée, de manière que les eaux usées ne puissent passer à l'extérieur. Les cendres volantes sont soumises à un traitement supplémentaire pour réduire autant que possible la teneur en ammonium afin que les valeurs seuils admissibles restent maintenues. L'invention décrit un procédé fonctionnant sans eaux usées, selon lequel la teneur en ammonium des cendres volantes qui tombent dans le séparateur sec est si faible que les cendres volantes peuvent être recyclées ou éliminées à la décharge, sans être soumises à un autre traitement. C'est possible du fait que l'eau de lavage extraite du laveur et sensiblement épurée de l'ammoniac est amenée à une valeur pH comprise entre 12 et 13 avant d'être pulvérisée dans le courant de gaz de fumée. L'invention convient particulièrement bien à la purification de gaz de fumée provenant d'usines d'incinération de déchets.

Abstract: On connaît la transmission par satellites ou par des voies de transmission à large bande de signaux numériques comprimés dans le temps par le facteur 20 et qui ont une plage de fréquence accrue correspondante. Dans la pratique, le besoin se fait sentir d'enregistrer de tels signaux et de les reproduire en temps réel. L'objet de l'invention est de créer un procédé à cet effet qui requière aussi peu de modifications que possible d'un enregistreur disponible dans le commerce à enregistrement hélicoïdal. L'enregistrement est effectué avec compression dans le temps à une vitesse longitudinale accrue de la bande et à une vitesse de rotation accrue du tambour de tête. La reproduction est effectuée à une vitesse longitudinale nominale de la bande et à la même vitesse de rotation accrue ou légèrement réduite du tambour de tête. La conversion en temps réel et la position en fréquence requise pour la reproduction en temps réel sont assurées par des mémoires électroniques dans lesquelles les signaux générés de façon répétée par surbalayage sont inscrits, puis lus pendant la reproduction en temps réel. L'invention est particulièrement utile pour enregistrer et reproduire en temps réel des signaux vidéo ou audio comprimés dans le temps transmis par satellite.
