Abstract: A switch (1) comprises a housing (2) in which at least a pair of fixed contacts (6a, 6b) and at least a movable contact (8) are located. The positioning of the movable contact (8) is controlled by a cam element (12) pivoted to the housing (2) and movable from one working position in which the fixed contacts (6a, 6b) are electrically connected to each other, to a second working position in which a lifting arm (17) of the cam element (12) separates the movable contact (8) from one of the fixed contacts (6b). A thrust element (21) oscillatably pivoted to an operation key (11) selectively acts, in cooperation with a release spring (14) associated with the cam element (12), on locating seats (18a, 18b) provided in said cam element, to bring the latter from its first to its second working positions and viceversa upon operation of the key (11).

Abstract: For loading the operating control command sequence, a microprocessor-controlled loading device (LE) is connected to an interface arrangement (S, E/A) used for transmitting a digital signal during the operation of the electrical device (DUE). In this loading device, the operating control command sequence to be loaded and a transmission control command sequence are stored. When the loading device is supplied with operating voltage, this transmission control command sequence is activated. During this process, a control command is first transmitted via a predetermined special line of the interface arrangement, and following the occurrence of this control command, a loading control command sequence stored in the electrical device is activated. Following this, the transmission of the relevant operating control command sequence occurs via at least one signal line of the interface arrangement. This sequence is then stored in a failsafe memory of the electrical device. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The process for the alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons in the presence of olefines relates in particular to the preparation of ethylbenzene and propylbenzene and to the preparation of fuels having a reduced benzene content. In order to obtain high yields, it is proposed to carry out the alkylation in the presence of a solid catalyst containing superacid fluorine compounds of elements from main group III, IV and/or V of the periodic table. The use of a catalyst comprising an Al2O3 support containing H2SiF6 has proven to be particularly suitable.

Abstract: Fan rotors of this kind are made in particular of thermoplastic material, starting from a hub which can be pushed onto an axis of rotation a concentric annular disc with at least one row of fan blades being provided. Due to their production by injection moulding, fan rotors of this kind generally have an unbalance, which is compensated by positive balancing using compensating elements which are attached as so-called balancing clips. According to the invention, the compensating elements (16, 16', 16'', 16''') for eliminating the unbalance are nondetachably connected to the annular disc (3) or the fan blades (4, 5). The compensating elements, of variable size, are here fixed on the annular disc and/or the blades of the fan rotor by ultrasonic action, where they preferably enter into a welded connection with the part to be balanced. The necessary apparatus for ultrasonic welding can be formed by a hand-held device or be integrated into a fixed arrangement which forms a common operating unit with the testing device. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tilt device for lorry drivers' cabs has on both sides a swivel arm which is coupled at one end to the vehicle frame and at the other end to a lowered driver console. A tilt cylinder supported on the vehicle frame engages at the end side on a swivel lever which is swivellably mounted at a distance therefrom on the driver console. At the other end of the swivel lever, a support lever is coupled which is connected in a jointed manner to the swivel arm and bears a support roller which is supported on an arc path which is concentric to the front swivel axis. When the tilt cylinder is actuated and the swivel lever and support lever swivel, the latter strikes against a stop of the swivel arm, against which, on continued tilting movement, it is supported in such a way that the driver console and the swivel arm, supported by the swivel lever and the support lever, can then be swivelled as a unit into the tilt position, the front suspension unit which consists of a spring-damper leg being relieved. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A swirl chamber (11) is defined by an approximately spherical cavity formed in a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine with the radius (ℓ) of the swirl chamber (11) being reduced in the direction the swirl flows in the swirl chamber (11). Therefore, the swirl is accelerated as it flows in the swirl chamber (11). The swirl chamber (11) communicates with a main combustion chamber (2) formed in a piston top via a passage (12) formed in the cylinder head (36) when the piston (1) is at the top dead center and air in the main combustion chamber (2) is forced into the swirl chamber (11) due to the compression movement of the piston (1). The passage (12) is formed in a manner such that it has a constant transverse section and a part of the passage (12) defines a tangental line of the swirl chamber (11). Therefore, air forced into the the swirl chamber (11) passes through the passage (12) with little friction loss, smoothly enters the swirl chamber (11), and gains velocity in the swirl chamber (11).

Abstract: A single facsimile apparatus performs both transmission and reception. A conventional facsimile apparatus, therefore, needs to have a paper feed mechanism for transmission to convey an original document read by an image sensor and another paper feed mechanism for reception to convey a recording sheet to be printed by head print image data on it, and as a result, its body has been large in size. 
     A facsimile apparatus by the present invention has a single conveying roller (28) in it, which an image sensor (26) is set above and a printing head (29) is set below. Pressing pins (46, 47, 48, 49) are set respectively near the upper and lower ends of components (43, 44) supporting the conveying roller (40) to freely rotate. In transmission, the lower pressing pins (46, 48) keep away the printing head (29) from the conveying roller (40) and the image sensor (26) presses an original document (57) onto the conveying roller (40). In reception, the upper pressing pins (45, 47) keep away the image sensor (26) from the conveying roller (40) and the printing head (29) presses the recording paper (31) onto the conveying roller (40). In this way, structure of the facsimile apparatus (21) is simplified.

Abstract: A sensor testing apparatus is described which is capable of testing any sensor regardless of the type of polarization to which the sensor is sensitive. The testing apparatus comprises source conditioning part (20) to produce a beam of optical energy of a known polarization state. A polarization conditioning part (50) changes the polarization state of the optical energy beam to any desired polarization state. A transmit quadrant detector (110) detects the polarization state of the optical energy and the optical energy is directed to a sensor (190) to be tested. The optical energy transmitted by the sensor (190) is detected by a receive quadrant detector (230). The polarization state is displayed on the monitor of a computer by virtue of a computer interface with both quadrant detectors (110,230).

Abstract: A wire harness assembly arrangement acquires, prepares and routes sections of wire [Fig. 7, (WS)] using a tool [Fig. 3 (10)] attached to a robotic arm [Fig. 1, (1)]. The tool moves coincident with the arm [Fig. 1, (2)] and acquires the wire section through a front end portion [Fig. 3, (14)]. The first end of the wire section is fed into the tool and through a tail end portion [Fig. 3, (15)]. The next portion is wound around a spool member [Fig. 3 (20)] disposed within the tool and rotatable in response to a controlled motor operation. The front end portion moves relative to a wire feeding unit [Fig. 1, (8)] so that the wire section is wound in a helical manner. The wire harness assembly arrangement can also include a strip/crimp station [Fig. 1 (9)] to prepare the acquired wire section for termination. The robotic manipulator then routes the wire section along a predeter­mined path to form a part of the wire harness assembly.

Abstract: Polypropylene oxides having an OH content of 1 - 3% by weight are suitable as oil formers for non-diffusing colour-donating compounds, for example colour couplers. In the case of comparatively hydrophilic compounds, especially yellow couplers with an -SO2-NH- grouping or a phenolic hydroxyl group, they reduce the tendency to crystallise and the undesired diffusion into adjacent layers. This allows a reduction of the gelatine content. The light stability is improved.
