Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif optique, qui sert à connecter une première et une seconde fibre optique par l'intermédiaire d'une voie optique placée entre ces deux fibres et qui possède au moins deux fonctions dont une fonction d'isolateur optique. A cet effet, des faisceaux parallèles émis depuis une extrémité d'excitation de la première fibre optique (1) et collimatés par une lentille (3) sont amenés à traverser séquentiellement dans l'ordre mentionné un dispositif biréfringent (4), un dispositif magnéto-optique (5) et un dispositif biréfringent (6) et ils sont amenés à converger en traversant une lentille (7) pour venir rencontrer la seconde fibre optique au niveau de son extrémité d'excitation. Le faisceau émis par la seconde fibre optique n'est cependant pas couplé à la première fibre optique (1). Le faisceau provenant d'un orifice d'excitation (8) est couplé à la première fibre optique. Ce dispositif optique est utilisable avec un système d'amplification optique et avec un système de transmission optique bidirectionnelle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a liquid crystal display device (1) having two plates (2, 3), whose mutually facing surfaces have structured conductive layers (4, 5, 9), enclosing the liquid crystal (6). In the region of at least one edge of the device (1), the plate (2) to be contacted projects over the other plate (3). The overlap (8) so formed is bonded, with the help of an adhesive which conducts electrically exclusively perpendicular to the surface of the plates (2, 3), to a carrier means (11) which carries drive circuits (16) and has conductor tracks (12) in the adhesive region opposite the conductive layers (9). The object of developing a liquid crystal display device of this type so that the space requirement of the drive circuits (16) is as small as possible is achieved in that the drive circuits (16) are arranged on the side of the carrier means (11) facing away from the overlap (8) and opposite the carrier means (11). In a preferred embodiment, the carrier means (11) is a circuit board and the drive circuits (16) are connected to the first conductor tracks (12) via plated holes (17) in the circuit board. <IMAGE>

Abstract: For the filling of joints of paving element arrangements, use is made of a joint mortar (6) which contains predominantly grains with a diameter of 1 to 4 mm. After being filled up completely, the joints are vibrated by means of a vibrating device (7) in order to allow excess liquid and air inclusions to escape. The paving element arrangement is then preferably cleaned by means of a sponge, or a device with a revolving sponge. As a result, visually attractive joints are obtained.

Abstract: An alkyl (meth)acrylate is prepared by a direct esterification (in 1) of (meth)acrylic acid by the corresponding alcohol, catalysed by H2SO4. The crude reaction mixture (B1), comprising the targeted ester, alcohol, (meth)acrylic acid, alkyl acid sulphate (alkyl hydrogen sulphate) and traces of H2SO4, is treated (in 3) with a base in order to neutralise the acid species, the resulting salts passing into the aqueous phase (A1), which is separated from the organic phase (O1) containing the targeted ester. The light products (L1), containing the alcohol, are recovered (in 4) from the aqueous phase and the waste water (E2) is discarded. The alkyl acid sulphate present in the aqueous phase (A1) resulting from the separation carried out after the neutralisation (in 3) is hydrolysed (in 8) to form, in this phase, alcohol and H2SO4, the acid species resulting from the hydrolysis are neutralised by introduction into the medium of a base and the resulting aqueous phase (A3) is sent to the alcohol recovery stage. Pollution of the waste water (E2), attributable to the alkyl acid sulphate, is thus avoided. <IMAGE>
