Abstract: A load carrier for a vehicle is provided with a strut (1) disposed transversely over the roof (6) of the vehicle, and with a foot member (2) in each end. The foot members are provided with a support member (3) and a gripping member (4) which, by means of an operating device (20, 21), are mountable against edge portions (5, 6) of the vehicle roof, for fixedly securing the load carrier. In order to render such fixed securement extra reliable, both the support member (3) and the gripping member (4) are disposed on a pivotal arm (17) which, by means of a pivot (16), is fixedly secured in an upper portion of the foot member (2). The arm (17) is pivotal with its lower portion in towards the centre of the vehicle so that both the under gripping portion (19) of the gripping member (4) and the support member (3) accompany the arm in this movement. At the same time, the gripping member (4) is slidable along a sliding surface (18) on the arm (17) in a direction upwardly and inwardly for displacement of the gripping portion (19) towards the support member (3). Both the movement of the arm (17) and the sliding movement of the gripping member (4) are realised by the operating device (20, 21).

Title: Composition and process for the qualitative and quantitative acceleration of hair growth in humans and animals
IPC: A23K1/175
Filed: 1989-03-23
Granted: 1992-10-14
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of physiological salts of thiocyanic acid in humans as cosmetic agent for hair care, for maintaining and promoting hair growth and for increasing the resistance of the hair to injurious effects. The composition and the process can likewise be used in productive livestock to increase yields and improve quality (gloss, skin texture, hair strength and elasticity, density and uniformity of the hair coat, softness and strength when processing) in the production of wool, furs, leather or feathers. Sodium thiocyanate or potassium thiocyanate or mixtures of these substances are preferably used. In humans, use is predominantly external (as additive to bath water, to hair lotions, shampoos or cosmetics), and in productive livestock it is predominantly oral by admixture with the feed or by administration with thiocyanate-supplemented feedstuffs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing 1,2-naphthoquinone-(2)-diazide-4-sulfonic acid esters of the general formula I   <IMAGE> (I)  which are substituted in at least one of the positions 5, 6, 7 or 8 by R=halogen, alkoxy groups or alkoxycarbonyl groups and in which X denotes an aryl group. The process comprises steps in which a) suitably substituted  beta -naphthol is nitrosated, b) sulfonation with alkali hydrogensulfite and acid in position 4 and reduction are carried out, c) the naphthalenesulfonic acid derivative is oxidized, d) the 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonic acid formed is reacted with toluenesulfonohydrazide in an organic solvent at temperatures from 20 DEG  to 100 DEG  C., e) the naphthoquinonediazide compound is converted with chlorosulfonic acid or chlorosulfonic acid/thionyl chloride into the sulfonyl chloride, and f) the sulfonyl chloride is condensed with a phenolic component, a purification of the respective intermediate product by reprecipitation or recrystallization being unnecessary. The process makes a simple technical procedure possible with good yield. The compounds prepared, in particular the 1,2-naphthoquinone-(2)-diazide-4-sulfonic acid esters substituted by 6-alkoxycarbonyl groups or by 7-alkoxy groups, are used as radiation-sensitive components in radiation-sensitive mixtures.

Abstract: A flow rate control system is disclosed for measurement of ink flow through an ink jet system. The flow rate control system receives an error signal indicative of deviation of flow rate from a set value. The system includes proportional (P), integral (I) and derivative (D) control to generate a control signal based on the magnitude and sign of the error signal. The control signal is used to control the on-time of an ink make-up valve which adds make-up ink to the system as ink is needed to maintain satisfactory operation. In a preferred embodiment, the PID controller has noise reduction capability through the use of clippers and low pass filters. In addition, conditional summation may be employed to minimize "hunting" at low error signal levels.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for identification of a prover to a verifier in which the prover demonstrates his knowledge of a secret permutation  pi  such that V pi   ELEMENT  K(A) for publicly known A and V where all the arithmetic operations are carried out modulo p. The actual proof does not reveal any knowledge of  pi  , and thus it cannot be misused by dishonest verifiers or eavesdroppers to later misrepresent themselves as the prover. The new scheme is much faster than the RSA and Fiat-Shamir identification schemes.

Abstract: The invention concerns a multi-wavelength pyrometer for the measurement of the temperature and emissivity of a surface above 900 K. The pyrometer has several radiation detectors sensitive in different wavebands  lambda 1...  lambda i...  lambda n as well as a data processor to which the detector outputs are fed after digitalization and which calculates the temperature of the surface from these detector outputs using Wien-Planck's law, assuming the surface is a perfect black body. The emissivity is then calculated, as a function of the temperature and the wavelength, from these calculated temperature values using an approximation method, and from this, the required temperature. The invention calls for the differences between the actual pyrometer signals and the signals which would be expected from the assumed emissivity and the temperature calculated from this emissivity to be determined for various approximations and various wavelengths. The approximation which gives, for all the wavelengths, the least sum of the squares of these differences is then selected.
