Abstract: The invention relates to tools for shaping with and without cutting.   According to the invention, in the hard carbonitride materials of the general formula (MqM<*>1-q-pM<**>)(C1-yNy)2 the empirical composition is within the limits 0.5 </= q </= 0.97, 0.03 </= p </= 0.5, 0.80 </= p + q </= 1 and 0.05 </= y </= 0.95 with a total stoichiometry of z >/= 0.90. The carbonitrides consist of at least two phases distributed over separate powder particles, and the thermodynamic equilibrium is established with respect to the nonmetals carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) but not for the total system. According to the invention, the hard carbonitride materials are prepared, inter alia, by annealing an appropriate amount of powder under a flowing gas mixture of nitrogen/hydrogen and/or inert gas at partial pressure ratios of nitrogen to hydrogen and/or inert gas of 1 : 0.5 to 1 : 5 at temperatures of 1800 DEG C to 2000 DEG C in a sufficiently short time. The hard carbonitride material according to the invention can be used, inter alia, as a component of a cermet or of a hard-wearing layer.

Abstract: For turning wings which are moveable about a laterally and vertically extending axis and which are installed as middle or intermediate wings in triple-wing or multi-wing windows having a casement without an intermediate post, a pivot bearing is proposed. It consists of a frame bearing half 26 mountable in a supported manner on the room-side end face of the casement and of a wing bearing half mountable on the circumferential face of the wing overlap in the region of a wing corner, in each case one bearing half 26 being equipped with a bearing journal 34 and the other bearing half with a bearing bush for receiving the bearing journal 34, whilst furthermore the frame bearing half 26 consists of a fastening part 30 and of an adjusting part 32 which is carried by the latter and which is adjustable parallel to the casement plane over a limited range of displacement, and the adjusting part 32 carries the bearing journal 34. So that an adjustment of the pivot bearing, to be executed by a layman and therefore easily and quickly, can be obtained by only one operator, the adjusting part 32 is formed by a sliding block which is guided and supported displaceably in a recess or a perforation 38 of the fastening part 30 and on which engages a screw spindle 40 extending parallel to the direction of displacement and having its abutment on the fastening part 30, and has at least one end accessible from outside and equipped with an engagement 42 for an adjusting tool. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a hot water shut-off device provided for use with showers and the like for shutting off hot water when the hot water exceeds a predetermined temperature. The device has a hot water inlet (54) and a cold water inlet (52). A temperature sensing expansion member (130) is provided to sense the temperature of the mixed hot and cold water so that if the temperature of the water exceeds a predetermined limit the expansion member expands to such an extent that it closes a valve (60) against a valve seat (71) to shut off supply of the hot water from the inlet (54). Cold water from the inlet (54) is continually supplied via a passage which bypasses the valve (60) and seat (71) so that cold water can be supplied to the temperature sensing, expansion member (130) to cool the member so that the device can reset quickly and allow hot water to pass through the valve (60) and mix with the cold water until the temperature of the water in the vicinity of the temperature sensing expansion member (130) exceeds the predetermined temperature. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The error detection and correction device detects and corrects single bit errors in a sequence of bits comprising a plurality of n-bit containing subsets applied on a parallel bus IN having m subset parts. It includes a storage module ST connected to the bus IN and which transfers the subsets as they are received on the bus to a divider logic circuit DL. This circuit performs a m*n bit parallel modulo 2 division of the received sequence by a given polynomial and transfers the remainder REM to a comparison circuit C where it is compared with a zero byte or with an error code byte HEC contained in the sequence depending on the position of the first byte of the sequence on the bus. Based on the result of the comparison and using translation tables a processor circuit PR determines the bit position in the sequence of a bit error. A correction logic CL corrects the received sequence. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing an in-the-ear hearing aid (25) a mould (23) is made of an ear canal (7) of an ear (3), which mould is used as a moulding die for the manufacture of a housing (27) of the hearing aid (25). When the mould (23) is made an auxiliary tool comprising a flexible tube (11) with a flange (13) at one end is inserted into the ear canal up to at least the proximity of a tympanic membrane (9) of the ear. Subsequently, a curable material (19) is introduced into the ear canal (7), the material pressing the flange (13) against the tympanic membrane (9), which precludes the ingress of material between the flange and the tympanic membrane. After the material (19) has cured the mould (23) with the tube (11) and the flange (13) is removed from the ear canal (7). During removal of the mould (23) the space between the tympanic membrane (9) and the mould is in communication with the outer air via the tube (11), so that no partial vacuum is produced, which may give rise to damage to the tympanic membrane (9). The mould (23) thus obtained is used as a moulding die for the manufacture of a custom-made in-the-ear hearing aid (25). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Circuit permettant d'équilibrer le signal d'erreur fourni par un appareil (1). Lorsqu'on met initialement en fonction l'appareil, il peut arriver que le signal d'erreur produit soit d'une grande intensité et ne se modifie, par la suite, que lentement avec le temps. Le signal d'erreur peut être constitué d'un signal produit par un capteur et être indépendant de la grandeur devant être mesurée. Le circuit comprend une boucle de contre-réaction négative (7, 11) qui, au moment de l'activation ou de la mise en service de l'appareil (1), introduit un signal d'équilibre qui compense rapidement le signal d'erreur. Le circuit comprend également un moyen destiné à modifier la boucle de contre-réaction (7, 11) lorsque le signal d'erreur a été sensiblement compensé, de telle sorte que seules des variations lentes du signal d'erreur ayant une fréquence inférieure à une limite supérieure, choisie en fonction de l'application, soient réinjectées.

Abstract: The invention relates to the neutralization and controlled recovery of environmentally harmful or polluting manure gases and sewage gases which are released during wet-composting of manure from domestic animals, sewage mud, or similar masses. It also relates to the return of such released gases to ready composted manure, sewage mud or similar mass in order to produce an improved fertilizer. To this end, manure gas (5) or sewage gas released during the wet-composting process is atomized and conducted into ready-composted manure (7) or sewage mud. In a wet-composting plant for carrying out this method, a first basin (1) (the fermentation basin) is sealed so as to be gas-tight. In this basin, the gas space above the manure (3), sewage mud or similar mass communicates with a second basin (6) containing ready-composted manure (7), sewage mud or similar mass. Thus, manure gas or sewage gas is conducted into the mass in the second basin where it is atomized and mixed into ready-composted manure, sewage mud or similar mass.
