Abstract: The hair dryer has an electric fan motor and a heating device with at least two independently controlled heating resistances (1,2). The control of the heating resistances is effected asynchronously using different time constants. The control of the resistance elements may be effected by comparing the actual temperature of the discharged air provided by a temperature sensor (3) with a required value provided by a temperature selection control (10), for switching triacs controlling the current through each heating resistance.

Abstract: A portable respiration apparatus is described. The portable
respiration apparatus (2) is dimensioned to convey a flow of
gas, with an upper limit on pressure, from an inlet (6() to a
patient. The portable respiration apparatus (2) is devised so
its inlet (6) can be connected to a stationary gas unit (32)
when a higher pressure is desired. The stationary gas unit
(32) can generate a gas pressure that is applied to the inlet
(6) of the portable respiration apparatus (2), whereby a
higher gas pressure can be generated and delivered to the patient.
Alternately, the stationary gas unit (32) can be
dimensioned so it is capable of itself generating the desired
gas pressure to be supplied to the patient, so there is no
additional increase in gas pressure in the portable respiration
apparatus (2).

Abstract: Controlling cooling, especially of confectionery or bakery products with an edible coating, comprises moving products along a conveyer belt through a cooling hood in which they are cooled by air. The cooling process incorporates the following stages: (a) the establishment of a delta-T (actual value) between coolant outlet and inlet for the specific product, which is regulated by the speed of coolant flow; (b) the entry of the delta-T value as a target value into a computer, in which it is used as a parameter for further cooling the product; (c) regulation of the coolant inlet temperature, especially during periods of interrupted product supply or following start-up, using the difference calculated within the computer between delta-T and the actual value measured.

Abstract: An integral EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) insole with peripheral
ornamental strip (10) and a manufacturing process thereof, wherein EVA
(ethylene vinyl acetate), a foaming agent and a binder are mixed,
flattened and cut to blanks of scaled-down shape. The scaled-down blanks
each comprise an ornamental strip (10) with two insole halves (11),
which have elongated surfaces (12) that point away from the ornamental
strip and fit to each other. The scaled-down insole blanks are put into
a mold and heat foamed at a temperature of 180°C. The ornamental strip
is then bent, such that the two insole halves lie next to each other,
and the two insole halves are glued together. Thus the ornamental strip
and the insole are integrated in a single body.

Abstract: A laser oscillator with a small resonator loss which is capable of
using a solid gain medium without highly polish. A solid gain
medium (1) is contained in a transparent container (3) in a manner
such that the solid gain medium (1) is immersed in liquid (2) having a
refractive index matching a refractive index of the solid gain medium
(1). When excitation light (50) is radiated to the transparent container
(3), the solid gain medium (1) is laser-excited, laser oscillation starts
in an optical resonator constituted by a rear mirror M1 and an output
mirror M2, and a laser beam S' is outputted from the output mirror M2.
Since the solid gain medium (1) is immersed in the index matching
liquid (2), scattering of the light on a boundary face is suppressed
even when the solid gain medium has a rough surface. By circulating
the index matching liquid (2) using a circulating cooling device (8), a
rise in temperature inside and outside the transparent container (3) is
prevented.

Abstract: A control method for generating a manipulated variable for controlling a hydraulic drive. In this case, account is taken of at least a desired value for the speed of the hydraulic drive, a first parameter, which simulates the response characteristic of the hydraulic drive, and a second parameter, which simulates the internal resistance which the technical process, opposes to the hydraulic drive. It is advantageous that nonlinear dependencies of the hydraulic drive can be taken into account for generating the manipulated variable driving the hydraulic drive. A technically complicated sensor system may be dispensed with. The control method may serve, in particular, the nonlinear control of a plastics injection molding machine.
