Patent DE-19732365-A1 (DE)
Title: Locking-bolt mechanism for tailgate of hatchback vehicle
Inventor: MEYER DIETER
IPC: E05B85/04
Filed: 1997-07-28
Abstract: The mechanism is so fixed to the bodywork as to insulate it from vibration, and works with a catch on the tailgate. The bolt (1) is fixed at one end to a lock plate (2) at right angles to it, and is held at the other by a stirrup-type extension (3) on the plate. The latter floats freely and without contact, being accommodated in a fixing plate (6), which is trough-shaped with a peripheral collar (7). A peripheral gap (8) is formed between the collar and the adjacent edge of the lock plate and is of varying width, being filled at least partly with rubber-type damping material. The latter adheres only to the underside (13) of the lock plate furthest from the bolt and to the face (14) towards it of the fixing plate, so as to transmit thrust load. Holes in line in the two plates accommodate headed fixing screws. The latter have shoulders bearing against the fixing plate, so that there is no direct contact between the screw heads and the lock plate.
Patent DE-19732433-A1 (DE)
Title: Semiconductor wafer sloping edges polishing method
Inventor: KAWAGUCHI AKIRA
IPC: H01L21/304
Filed: 1997-07-28
Abstract: The method involves setting the wafer (W) to rotate in its circumferential direction. A polishing cloth (111) is pressed against an inclined edge (M) of the wafer with sufficient pressure to elastically deform the polishing cloth while polishing fluid is fed to the edge. The method also involves carrying out a sliding motion of the cloth along a slope of an edge from an outer edge to the centre of the wafer. The sliding motion of the cloth generates a curved out section of the cloth which contacts an outer surface of the wafer. The outer surface is polished together with the sloping edge of the wafer.

Patent DE-19734935-A1 (DE)
Inventor: MENZEL CHRISTIAN DR ING
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1997-08-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for packet oriented critical time-critical information transmission via a radio interface between a base station and mobile stations pertaining to a TDMA mobile communication system. During a logical link, a request for upward radiotechnic resources is sent by a mobile station with a service profile for time-critical information in part of a channel solely assigned to said profile in an upward direction without prior allocation of precise transmission time by the base station. The base station receives the request, evaluates it and carries out a modified allocation of radiotechnic resources for transmission of a useful signal in an upward direction to said mobile station. The invention can be used particularly advantageously in TDD mobile radio telephone services with TDMA/CDMA subscriber separation.
Patent DE-19737824-A1 (DE)
Title: Exhaust gas cleanser for IC engine or burner
Inventor: FUKUDA KENSEI
IPC: F01N3/30
Filed: 1997-08-29
Abstract: The cleanser comprises a filter element which traps the particles in the exhaust gas and stores them in the filter container (5). An air supply (7) exerts pressure on the particles to force them into the filter. A heater (4) heats the air before it reaches the particles. The cleanser has an almost constant air flow resistance and a sensor (1a,b) measures the pressure difference of the air across this resistance before the air reaches the particles. The pressure of the air against the filter element can be adjusted so that the difference between the pressure difference and a reference pressure difference is a preset value. The reference pressure difference or the actual pressure difference can cause the temperature of the heated air to be modified to set a mass flow rate of the air to a desired value.
