Abstract: The invention, relating to mechanical ladders, describes a collapsible working platform which can be suspended at any height on a standard commercial ladder secured to a movable frame (39). The essential feature of the invention is that it combines the advantages of conventional scaffolding, e.g. safe working with freedom of movement and those of ladders, e.g. small space requirements. The working platform accessible via the upward folding, edged base plate (15) is fitted with a fall-guard and can be supported, e.g. against a building wall, via telescopic wall supports (24, 25, 26, 27). The ladder on which the working platform is suspended by hooks on two rungs, is supported vertically on the frame (39) by the struts (41, 42). The frame (39) which can travel on four lockable swivelling castors (47) has horizontal wheels (48) and is fitted with telescopic supports (49) and adjustable feet (50).

Patent DE-19508562-A1 (DE)
Inventor: SCHEUFLER BERND DR
IPC: A01C7/08
Filed: 1995-03-10
Abstract: The apparatus has a position indicator (2,4,6) which produces field coordinate signals to indicate the relative position of the vehicle (1,5) on the field. The switching device for determining the intervals can be operated and monitored and/or corrected by the position indicator. The switching device is only switched when the direction of movement of the drilling machine coincides with the target of the gangway system. The gangway switch is operated by the lift process at the end of the field. The position indicator sends signals to a monitoring device so that it can be determined whether the drilling machine is located in the correct gangway rhythm. A computer and screen can be used to show the optimum gangways.

Abstract: A white level correction apparatus for an image scanner is improved so that analog to digital conversion can be performed effectively for originals of different background colors with a high degree of accuracy. Image information of a paper sheet (40) being transported along a paper transport path (310) is optically read at a fixed location of the paper transport path (310) using an optical image reading unit (410) and analog data obtained by the optical image reading unit (410) are converted into digital data using white level information of the image information as an index to a conversion reference. The white level information correction apparatus comprises a plurality of storage apparatus (72-1 to 72-N) for storing a plurality of pieces of white level information to be used as indices to the conversion reference, a data variation apparatus (74) for multiplying white level information from a storage apparatus (72-1) by a variable coefficient, and a data write control apparatus (76) for storing the modified white level information into a storage apparatus (72-1) to update the stored data.

Title: On-line weighing of pharmaceutical capsule for checking dosage of contents
Inventor: ZANARINI BRUNO
IPC: G01G15/00
Filed: 1995-06-01
Abstract: The on-line capsule weighing utilises a transport mechanism (1) where the capsules (2) are separated individually and move with their long axis at right angles to their direction of motion, and individually placed on a weighing scale pan (15) which is then weighed. The capsule is then removed from the pan and a second weighing of the scale pan is performed, then the net capsule weight is calculated as the difference of the two readings. A toothed belt (4) separates individual capsules and runs on pulleys (5,6) driven by a stepping motor, positioning transverse capsule-containing parts (7) of the belt individually above the pan of a weighing mechanism (16).
Patent DE-19521411-A1 (DE)
Title: Vehicle speed determination
Inventor: LICHTENBERG MARCUS
IPC: B60T8/172
Filed: 1995-06-14
Abstract: The method uses a signal corresponding to the speed of the vehicle. Signals from a driven and an undriven wheel are obtained, compared and from the comparison the vehicle speed is determined. The driven and undriven wheels on different axles can be selected diagonally and if the signals obtained are approximately equal the speed indicated by the undriven wheel corresponds to the vehicle speed or that indicated by the maximum value of the two signals. If the signals do not agree the signals can be taken from a different pair of wheels.

Title: Motor vehicle brake system with recuperative brake
Inventor: BOLL WOLF DR ING
IPC: B60T8/00
Filed: 1995-07-03
Abstract: A braking system for a car with a recuperation brake also operated from the master cylinder has a control unit (6) for valves in the main fluid lines between the master cylinder(3) and the wheel cylinders. By operation of the valves, the brake pressure in the wheel cylinders can be reduced  in relation to that in the master cylinder. When de-activated, the valves allow unrestricted flow between master and wheel cylinders. They form part of an ABS or an ASR system. The maximum pressure difference between inlet and outlet sides of the valves corresponds to the maximum attainable instantaneous brake effect of the recuperation brake.

Patent DE-19543049-A1 (DE)
Title: Contacting gas or vapour with liquid
Inventor: GRUENBERG ECKHARD DIPL ING
IPC: B01D3/16
Filed: 1995-11-06
Abstract: The process for energy and mass transfer between gaseous and liquid phases involves the use of individual fluid circuits (i.e. stages) in which the mechanism for generating contact between the gas and the liquid, the mechanism for disengaging the gas from the liquid, and the movement of the two phases do not inhibit one another. The gas acts as a driving medium for the contact process, and the effect of gravity used in conventional gas-liquid contacting devices in the above mechanisms is replaced by the centrifugal force produced by rotational flow.
