Abstract: A close-fitting wrapper for a product (P) is produced from two sheets (1, 2), the first of which is made dish-shaped so as to surround the greater part of the product (P). The other sheet (2) is laid on the rest of the product (P) so as to assume a shape complementary to that of the product itself. After the two sheets (1, 2) have been joined peripherally to give the wrapper sealing characteristics and the edges which project beyond the region of the join have been trimmed, the wrapper formed is subjected to a shaping step which causes the first sheet (1) to cover practically the entire product (P), hiding the second sheet from view. <IMAGE>

Abstract: For their wet purification, gases flowing in a line are sprayed with scrubbing liquor, the resulting mixture of gas and liquid is passed through a cyclone separator. The gas is initially sprayed in a pre-scrubbing line and the gas which contains scrubbing liquor is subsequently conducted through a substantially horizontal accelerating line having at its entrance a cross-sectional area which is 1.5 to 8 times larger than the cross-sectional area at its exit. The exit of the accelerating line communicates with the cyclone separator. Purified gas is withdrawn from the cyclone separator.

Abstract: Un répéteur (10) de bus bidirectionnel comprend deux répéteurs (11, 13) de bus unidirectionnels connectés pour retransmettre des signaux dans des sens opposés entre deux bus (12, 14). Lorsqu'un circuit d'attaque de bus externe fait descendre la tension de n'importe quel bus, un des répéteurs de bus unidirectionnel fait descendre la tension de l'autre bus. Lorsque le circuit d'attaque de bus externe permet au bus de s'élever au niveau logique élevé, le répéteur de bus unidirectionnel fournit temporairement un courant de charge élevé à l'autre bus afin de le faire monter rapidement en tension. Chaque répéteur de bus unidirectionnels (11, 13) génère également des signaux indiquant lorsqu'il fait monter ou descendre activement son bus de sortie en tension, et les signaux indicateurs empêchent un répéteur de bus unidirectionnel d'attaquer activement sa sortie lorsque l'autre répéteur de bus unidirectionnel attaque activement sa sortie.

Abstract: In order to dry and/or heat bulk material in a drying drum (1a/b), in particular in asphalt plants, the temperature of the waste gases of a burner (5a/b) which heats the drying drum (1a/b) is measured. In addition to this measured value, there is determined a measured value in connection with the material to be supplied to the drying and/or heating process and/or already undergoing the latter, and the inflow of the combustible medium and oxygen carrier for the burner (5a/b) is controlled as a function of the measured values. By this procedure, the heating and/or drying process for the material to be used is controlled in such a way that the process proceeds in a manner which is optimal in terms of fuel engineering, with low pollutant content in the waste gases. The apparatus for carrying out the process has a burner (5a/b) arranged in a drying drum (1a/b) rotatable about the longitudinal axis (2), a temperature-measuring device (22a/b) and a filter arrangement (17) for the burner waste gases, an adjusting device (31a/b, 32a/b) for adjusting the inflow of combustion medium and oxygen carrier, a measuring device (22a/b; 24a/b; 25a-f; 27a-f) for measuring at least one physical value of the material to be supplied to the drying and/or heating process and/or already undergoing the latter. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method is used as security concept against unauthorised use of a payment means (1), exhibiting a number of memory elements (5, 7a, 7b, 7c, 9a, 9b, 9c, 11a, 11b, 11c, 13) for the cashless settlement of procurements of goods and/or services at a number of paying offices. The settlement occurs at different paying offices, designed for or without check of the identity of the owner of the payment means and/or the authenticity of the payment means (1). Part-amounts are taken from an amount of money stored in a first memory element (11a) of the payment means (1) for the settlement, a further memory element (7a) of the payment means (1), which stores the number of uses of paying offices, being changed to a new reference number by a value and a safety amount stored in a third memory element (9a) of the payment means (1) being changed by the value of the part-amount to a new safety amount. A check is then made whether a second or third final value (7c, 9c) stored in the second or respectively third memory element would be exceeded by the new reference number or the new safety amount, the settlement not being carried out in the case of a transgression and being carried out in the case of a non-transgression by storing the new reference number and the new safety amount in the second and respectively third memory element (7c, 9c) and changing the amount of money by the value of the part-amount in the first memory element (11a). In the payment means (1), information can also be stored by means of which the owner of the payment means is reminded of payments to be carried out. When the relevant payment is transferred at one of the paying offices, the respective information is deleted. <IMAGE>
