Title: Holografisches Display-System zur Darstellung von Information
Inventor: DAUSMANN GUENTHER
IPC: G09B9/32
Filed: 1999-06-17
Abstract: Es wird ein holographisches Display-System zur Darstellung von Information vorgestellt, das ein Laserprojektionssystem, einen holographischen Zwischenbildschirm sowie ein Displayelement umfaßt. Das Laserprojektionssystem erzeugt mindestens einen Laserstrahl, dem die darzustellende Information aufgeprägt ist. Diese Information wird auf einen holographischen Zwischenbildschirm projiziert, der als Mattscheibe wirkt, aber eine Richtcharakteristik aufweist, denn das aufprojizierte Bild wird nur in einen definierten Raumwinkelbereich gestreut. Mittels eines Displayelements, welches entweder ein holographisch-optisches Element, ein Spiegel oder eine Lupe sein kann, wird ein virtuelles Bild des holographischen Zwischenbildschirms sowie der darauf projizierten Information erzeugt. Einem Betrachter erscheint dieses virtuelle Bild als in die Tiefe verlagert, und deshalb kann er es wahrnehmen, ohne seine Augen auf den Nahbereich zu akkommodieren. Die Erfindung eignet sich insbesondere dazu, konventionelle Anzeigeelemente im Armaturenbereich von Fahrzeugen, Flugzeugen etc. zu ersetzen.

Patent DE-19933301-A1 (DE)
Inventor: HUGO RANDOLF
IPC: B01D53/14
Filed: 1999-07-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for removing mercaptans from fluid fluxes containing mercaptans, in particular from hydrocarbon gases, such as natural gas, synthesis gas from heavy oil or heavy residues or refinery gas, or also from liquid hydrocarbons, for example, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas). According to the invention, a fluid flux of this type is brought into contact with a washing solvent in an absorption or extraction zone. Said solvent contains at least one aliphatic alkanolamine which has 2 - 12 C-atoms. Enough washing solvent is supplied to the absorption or extraction zone to more or less completely eliminate at least CO2 and H2S from the fluid flux. The substantially purified fluid flux is subsequently separated from the charged washing solvent and both the fluid flux and the washing solvent are evacuated from the absorption zone. The major part of the mercaptans are removed from the gas flux by the more or less complete removal of CO2 and H2S, without a notable portion of the hydrocarbon gases dissolving in the washing solvent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for verifying the electromagnetic compatibility of lines in a cable bundle. According to the invention, conduction types and incompatibility criteria for such conduction types in a cable bundle are predefined independently from the object.

Title: Mass spectrometric determination of thin-layer chromatographically-separated analytes with ionization of their molecules using matrix-assisted laser desorption
Inventor: MAYER-POSNER FRANZ-JOSEF
IPC: G01N30/95
Filed: 1999-08-07
Abstract: Thin-layer chromatographic separation of analytes is effected on a holding plate. Beneath the thin layer, this plate carries an electrically-conducting layer or is made of metal. To either conductor, a good connection can be made. Separated analytes in the thin layer are uniformly penetrated by matrix solution, avoiding lateral flow. They are transported by capillary action induced by surface vaporization, to form a surface matrix crystal layer. The holding plate is introduced directly into the ion source of a mass spectrometer. The conductive-layer or metal, beneath the thin layer, furnishes the ion acceleration potential.  An Independent claim is included for a holding plate, which alone or held by a frame, has a size corresponding with a microtitration plate.
