Patent DE-3819243-A1 (DE)
Title: Solar/wind power-utilizing devices
IPC: F24S23/00
Filed: 1988-06-06
Abstract: Hot-water production by means of one or more alternative power-generator systems. Tanks with subdivided hollow spaces in which water is stored in order to utilize solar power as heating source. To enhance such projects, zeolites or prepared chalks are introduced so that as auxiliary agents in adjoining sections they benefit hot-water retention. As further auxiliary agents for heating up subdivided water tanks by means of solar power, prisms are arranged in strips between the individual compartments such that by refraction the effects of the sun's rays are enhanced or promoted. In order to prevent cooling in the event of a lack of sun, other energy collectors, such as wind-power generators, are provided in order thus to ensure continuous hot-water production and also storage. Individual tanks are produced in such a design that a combination of a plurality, over more extensive areas of the solar power effects or other types of power supply quantitative increases in hot-water production, can be achieved. In addition, reflective surfaces for directing the sun's rays onto the tanks to be heated up can optionally be mounted in a manner surrounding the tanks.

Title: Device for achieving luminous effects by means of a ballistic missile (aerodynamic vehicle) having flash illumination
Inventor: MOSDELL RICHARD JOHN
IPC: F42B12/42
Filed: 1988-06-14
Abstract: The purpose of the invention is to achieve luminous effects by means of a ballistic missile which otherwise would not be possible in a stationary state. An example might be the illumination of distant objects for the purpose of photography. According to the invention, a way of achieving this object is a light source which is designed in such a manner that it luminesces at the beginning, during or towards the end of a ballistic flight as a result of the fact that the ballistic missile (in the simplest embodiment of the invention) is a flash bulb or is constructed to be a part-object. Another application of the invention is a flash illumination for the purpose of scaring off in dangerous situations in the case of people by subjecting an opponent to a specific triggering of the flash illumination in the embodiment of the invention, the opponent thereby experiencing a crippling deterrence. A further application of the invention with the temporal-spatial illumination process is its use as luminous column or similar luminous effect for the purpose of entertainment on stage, in films, on TV or in shows.
Patent DE-3821309-A1 (DE)
Title: Anti-tank missile
Inventor: SEPP GUNTHER DR
IPC: F42B12/18
Filed: 1988-06-24
Abstract: The invention relates to an anti-tank missile which flies with an incidence angle and whose main shaped charge strikes precisely at the location of impact of the front shaped charge, even if the target surface is inclined. To this end, the inclination of the target surface is measured using a special laser range finder, the missile incidence angle is then rotated by means of pulse motors, and the times of the ignitions of the pulse motors and of the main shaped charge are calculated. Exemplary embodiments are described. <IMAGE>

Title: Solenoid-operated hydraulic module (TCS actuator) for the traction control in vehicle brake systems
Inventor: WETZEL GERHARD DIPL ING
IPC: B60T8/34
Filed: 1988-09-01
Abstract: In a solenoid-operated hydraulic module, which as TCS actuator for accomplishing traction control functions is connected between a brake master cylinder and the wheel brake cylinder or cylinders in a vehicle brake system, it is proposed to design the piston as a spring-preloaded slide valve which shuts off an admission cross-section of the brake master cylinder in its initial movement, at the same time defines a wall of a working pressure chamber and as a result can build up pressure to the wheel brake cylinders for the TCS operation when actuated by an assigned actuator, and a non-return valve being arranged parallel to the piston, which opens the admission from the brake master cylinder, bypassing the piston, into the working pressure chamber to the wheel brake cylinders. The piston runs in the housing bore receiving it without a seal, but at its remote end has a face seal, preferably in the form of an O-ring, which in normal braking bears firmly on a seat-forming counterface under the brake pressure generated by the brake master cylinder and the spring preloading. This results in a reliable sealing and at the same time an especially smooth running of the piston. <IMAGE>

Title: Removing fuel from injection nozzle - involves releasing compressed air from storage vessel
Inventor: VERTENS PETER
IPC: F02C6/06
Filed: 1989-05-20
Abstract: The gas turbine has a compressor (1), a combustion chamber (2) and a turbine (3) which is connected to the compressor (1) by a shaft (4). Fuel is supplied to the combustion chamber (2) through a nozzle (9) which is supplied from a pump (5) through a valve (6).

Patent DE-3933012-A1 (DE)
Inventor: STEWART PETER ANTONY EABRY
IPC: G01N23/04
Filed: 1989-10-03
Abstract: Residual core material can be detected inside hollow cast articles 2 such as turbine blades using positron emission tomography. Positron radio-isotope material is inducted into any residual core material present by immersing a cast article in an aqueous solution of radio-isotope emitter, for example gallium. Absorbed gallium subsequently emits positrons which are annihilated in collisions with electrons emitting two 511 KeV gamma rays in diametrically opposite directions. The coincident emissions are detected at 4, 6 and tracked by a PET camera and the resulting images correlated with a sectioned image of the article as a check on the location of detected core material. Initially a low-dose-rate solution for the purpose of merely establishing the presence of core material is used but a second optional process step introduces a more active solution allowing a PET camera to collect sufficient data to image absorbed isotope. <IMAGE>

Patent DE-4002597-A1 (DE)
Title: Timer arrangement for stairs lighting
Inventor: JEHLE HERBERT
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 1990-01-30
Abstract: The switching arrangement produces a warning signal before a given post-lighting duration has elapsed. The post-lighting duration follows a given switch-on duration. The warning signal consists of reducing the intensity of lighting during the post-lighting duration. This reduction in intensity is accomplished by using the switching control circuit (5) to switch on the switch (3) less than every time the a.c. mains voltage passes through zero. During the switch-on duration, the control circuit turns the switch on at every passage through zero. If the push-button (2) is operated during the post-lighting duration, the switch is switched on again at every passage through zero.
