Abstract: The present invention describes a film-blowing head (10) for producing multilayer plastic tubular films (34) with channel systems (22) for subdividing the melt streams of each layer to be extruded onto the circumference of a die-gap annular chamber (30). Film-blowing heads of this kind are used for the production of multilayer films, for example for use in the foodstuffs industry. In the case of film-blowing heads of this kind, in order to be able to achieve an individual thermal treatment of the individual melt streams, it is proposed that the pipe-channel systems for the melt streams be arranged in cylindrical shells (24) in each case which are separate from one another and concentric to one another, the individual cylindrical shells being separated from one another by a thermal separating layer (26). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An intake valve or an exhaust valve is lifted through a swingable cam by the rotation of a rotatable cam formed in the cam shaft. A surface at which the swingable cam abuts with the rotatable cam is tapered in the axial direction in which said cam shaft extends, and the valve shift timing is changed by transferring the cam shaft, that is, the rotatable cam in the axial direction in which said cam shaft extends. The power transmitting member such as a helical gear to be rotated with the output shaft of the engine is engaged with the cam shaft through a helical spline. The power transmitting member is so arranged as to be unmovable in the axial direction in which said cam shaft extends. The rotational phase of the rotatable cam relative to the output shaft of the engine is changed by displacement of the cam shaft relative to the power transmitting member in the axial direction in which said cam shaft extends.

Abstract: A photoelectric device capable of high conversion efficiency is produced from an ordinary single crystal semiconductor substrate instead of an expensive epitaxial wafer. On the obverse surface of the p-type silicon substrate in the area corresponding to the light-receiving surface, an n⁺ layer (14a) is formed by thermal diffusion of phosphorus to give rise to a pn junction. The surface of the p-type silicon substrate opposite to the light-receiving surface is selectively removed by etching to form a diaphragm part (19). As a result, excess series resistance is eliminated and the conversion efficiency is improved. In the depression of the diaphragm part, a metallic reflection film (20) is formed. On the etched surface of the p-type silicon substrate, a p⁺ layer is formed by thermally diffusing boron in a high concentration.

Abstract: Carbon particulate concentration of diesel exhaust or other sampled gas is measured by collecting the particulate on a high efficiency filter while measuring the amount of sampled gas passing through the filter. The filtered particulate is then heated in an oxygen rich environment to oxidize carbon within the particulate to carbon dioxide. The amount of resulting carbon dioxide is measured with a closed measurement loop to derive a corresponding measurement of the amount of filtered particulate. Particulate concentration is calculated by comparing the amount of carbon particulate with the measured amount of sampled gas passed through the filter. Filtered particulate can be heated incrementally to obtain a measurement of volatile carbon components within the particulate prior to the oxidation of the non-volatile carbon component. The filter employed to collect the carbon particulate is of a high temperature resistant type making it reusable and can be either integral with or inserted into the oxidation chamber of the instrument. Oxidation of the particulate inherently concurrently cleans the filter for reuse. An upstream preseparator can extend the life of the high efficiency filter. Particulate can also be collected for analysis by using an accelerating impaction nozzle in conjunction with a heatable impaction plate.

Abstract: Procédé visant à réduire la formation de calamine lors du formage à chaud de métal, notamment de l'acier. Le métal déformé de manière sensiblement plastique, et brièvement mis sous haute pression, à l'état chauffé, est recouvert d'un gaz inerte, de l'azote par exemple, dans une phase ultérieure de relaxation des contraintes, au cours de laquelle le degré de déformation élastique régresse. Dans un dispositif se prêtant à l'application du procédé, un dispositif destiné à acheminer le gaz inerte est raccordé à l'installation de formage à chaud de métal. Ce dispositif d'amenée du gaz inerte comporte une pluralité de buses orientées vers le matériau formé, ainsi qu'un système qui ne permet l'acheminement du gaz inerte qu'après la phase de formage, c'est-à-dire seulement pendant la phase de relaxation des contraintes. Lors du laminage à chaud de l'acier, des buses de gaz inerte sont par exemple disposées à l'extrémité située côté sortie d'une cage de laminoir, de sorte que le gaz inerte soit injecté obliquement par rapport au sens d'avancement de l'acier dans l'espace entourant le matériau formé, entre les parties situées côté sortie du dernier montant de cage, ainsi que dans les espaces libres situés sur les côtés du matériau formé. Du gaz inerte s'accumule ainsi dans l'espace précité jusqu'à formation d'une pression supérieure à la pression atmosphérique.

Abstract: A composition which provides for rehydration and endurance in persons having symptoms of physiological stress comprises a blend of simple sugars and more complex carbohydrates and, at least magnesium, in the form of an amino acid chelate. Preferably the carbohydrate source is a blend of crystalline fructose and glucose polymers in a weight ratio of between about 4:1 and 1:4. Other ingredients, including anabolic nutrients, vitamins, electrolyte ions (e.g. potassium, sodium, chloride), and other minerals, such as calcium amino acid chelate, may be added as desired to provide an optimal rehydration and endurance formulation. When administered, the carbohydrate blend and amino acid chelates facilitate rehydration and the delivery of nutrients and calorie energy to appropriate sites within the body for efficient utilization.

Abstract: A laser mirror device (10) is described having a deformable mirror element (14) and a pot-like housing (12), which is provided for holding the mirror element (14). The housing (12) has an ante-chamber (22) with a heat-transferring fluid for the dissipated heat in the mirror element (14).

The pressure in the cooling chamber (24) has thus no effect on the instantaneously set doming of the mirror surface (38) which is caused by the current fluid pressure in the ante-chamber (22) or by a linear actuator (52) which projects through the two chambers (24, 22) and the partition (18). <IMAGE>
