Abstract: In a heat insulating engine of this invention, the piston head is made up of a retainer body, a heat insulating member mounted on the retainer body, and a thin ceramic member formed over the upper surface of the heat insulating member exposed to the burning gas and over the circumference of the former two members. The retainer body is mounted to a piston skirt through a heat insulating gasket. The cylinder is so constructed that the piston head does not contact the cylinder liner upper portion of the head-liner but can contact the cylinder liner lower portion. When the piston is situated close to the top dead center, the heat insulating structure of the combustion chamber prevents heat from being released from the piston head. When the piston is pushed down, the heat of the piston head is released through the cylinder liner lower portion, rapidly reducing the temperature in the combustion chamber, preventing fresh air taken in from thermally expanding and therefore preventing a reduction in the air intake efficiency.

Abstract: In the method for producing mouldings from a thermoplastic material, if appropriate reinforced with chopped fibres, cut-to-size pieces of plastic sheet of a thickness between 1 and 12 mm are brought to a processing temperature at which, although plastic, they are not yet tacky, or at least not yet considerably tacky, on their surface. The hot pieces of sheet are then introduced into the lower part (3) of a mould kept at temperatures below the Vicat softening temperature of the plastic, and the mould is closed by the upper mould part (6) entering the lower part (3), and the mould cavity (11) is filled completely with the plastic. After cooling and setting, the plastic is then removed from the mould as a moulding (10). In this method, the pieces of sheet brought to processing temperature may be folded and/or rolled in one or more times before they are introduced into the lower part (3), even to form a relatively thick piece of plastic (7). The method is specifically suitable also for producing the outer shells of ski boots. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Apparatuses for applying liquids have plastic bristles which are grouped into bundles and are fixed to a plastic bristle bearer by a thermal melt connection in such a way that, within the bundle, at least one channel is formed which tapers towards the bristle ends and extends an exit opening, arranged in the bristle bearer, for the medium into the region of the bristle ends. Such apparatuses are produced simply and cost-effectively due to the fact that a riser tube, adjoining the exit opening and projecting into the channel in the bristle bundle, is produced by thermal melting and shaping of the bristles and/or the bristle bearer.

Abstract: A sample-hold circuit comprises a large number of sample-hold elements (2Am, ..., 2Am+5), and a mult-­stage shift register (7A) for controlling sampling timings of the sample-hold elements, including a large number of stages corresponding to respective sample-hold elements, characterized in that each of stages (20, 20m, ..., 20m+5) of the multi-stage shift register includes an input gate (21, 21m, ..., 21m+5) for taking a signal shifted from the preceding stage thereinto, an output gate (22, 22m, ..., 22m+5) for shifting the signal taken in by the input gate to the succeeding stage, respective sampling timings of said sample-hold elements corresponding to respective stages being determined by signals taken in between the input and output gates through the input gates at the respective stages. Waveforms of output signals from respective stages for determining the sampling timing are not affected by interstage wiring capacity. Accordingly, where a multi-­stage shift register is made up as a folded array, unevenness occurs in the interstage wiring capacity, but such an unevenness has no bad influence on the sampling timing.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for determining with only sixty-four distance comparisons the distances between a received eight-dimensional vector comprised of four two-­dimensional coordinates and each of sixteen non-overlapping subconstellations. In order to limit the comparisons, each subconstellation is represented by a collection of sixteen representational four-coordinate vectors, with each collection having four groups of vectors of the form 
                       (a,   b,   c,   d )     (a+2,   b+2,   c,   d )     (a,   b,   c+2,   d+2)     (a+2,   b+2,   c+2,   d+2)                 where each letter represents in a different plane one of a set of points T(0) and its ninety, one hundred and eighty, and two hundred and seventy degree rotations, and +2 represents a one hundred and eighty degree rotation. Knowing the distance between each coordinate of the received vector and each set of points, if the received vector is broken into two two-coordinate vectors, eight comparisons may be made to find the eight shortest combinations of the two-coordinate representative vectors for the first two planes, and eight additional comparisons for the second two planes. By combining the two groups of two-coordinate shorter vectors, sixty-four combinations are found for the sixteen collections of four-coordinate representational vectors; four for each collection. Three comparisons for each group may then be made for each subconsteliation to find the representational vector representing the four-­coordinate (eight-dimensional) point closest to the received vector.

Abstract: A process for the environment-friendly recycling of appliances, for example refrigerators, having fluorocarbon-containing (FC) foam parts, in particular polyurethane foam parts (PU), and a plant for carrying out the process are described. After delivery, appliances are freed from oil and cooling medium. Various elements and parts are removed. Thereafter, the appliances are broken up, first coarsely and then finely. Magnetic metal parts are then separated off, followed by nonmagnetic metal parts. The remaining plastic parts, mainly foam parts, are then, for example, pressed so that the fluorocarbon is forced out of the pores of the foam parts. To ensure the best possible protection of the environment, an air purification plant is provided which extracts the released fluorocarbon gases and renders them recoverable.
