Abstract: In a solenoid valve, which can be used in particular as an electropneumatic control and regulating valve, provided inside a housing (1) is an armature arrangement (21, 23) which can be displaced axially by energising a coil (3) and moves alternately into a closed or open position with respect to openings from inlet and outlet lines. In order to achieve small and large cross-section ventilations (small signal and large signal respectively), the armature arrangement is constructed in two parts in such a manner that an inner armature (23) is guided such that it moves axially in an outer armature (21). When the coil of the solenoid valve is energised less, the inner armature can move axially inside the outer armature and acts with respect to a small cross-section energy inlet (small signal), while, in the event of the coil (3) of the solenoid valve being energised more powerfully, the outer armature (21) interacts with the inner armature to release a large cross-section for the energy inlet (large signal). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In sewage sludge treatment in the context of recycling, in which the sewage sludge, in sequential treatment stages, is first dried (T), then converted (K) under anaerobic conditions at approximately 250 to 350 degrees C and is finally sintered (S) at at least 1250 degrees C, it is proposed to carry out all process steps, including transport of the goods to be treated between the individual treatment stages, in a continuous flow sequence in a closed system. Only the vapours from the drying stage (T) and the conversion gas from the conversion stage (K) are taken off from this system and condensed; the heat contained in the flue gas arising during sintering (S) is used for heating, firstly in the conversion stage (K) and then in the drying stage (T). By using the flue gases for heating the treatment stages in the sequence of the naturally occurring temperature drop, the sewage sludge treatment is almost self-contained from the energy consumption point of view, that is the energy required for the treatment is largely obtained from the calorific value of the organic components contained in the sewage sludge itself. Treating the sewage sludge in a closed system avoids adverse effects on the environment.

Abstract: A current-compensated network choke coil for damping or suppressing active unbalanced RF interference on the network is proposed, which has, in a known manner, a homogeneously, intrinsically closed frame-shaped core 1 and a coil former 2, arranged thereon, for the coil windings 8. Network choke coils of this generic type are particularly advantageous from the electromagnetic point of view, but until now could not be produced easily since, in the known designs, because of the integral core, a coil former is used which consists of two half shells which must be assembled around the core in a separate assembly step, in a time-consuming manner with a considerable apparatus cost. In addition, the two-piece coil former in the known network choke coils of the generic type consumes a large amount of winding space and can be wound only using wire having a small cross-section. According to the invention, these disadvantages of the known generic type of network choke coils are avoided by using an integral coil former 2 which is shaped in a special manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of processing digital information of a radio data signal which is transmitted in a radio broadcasting signal with reference to at least first and second program identification codes of first and second program signals, respectively, and to a plurality of alternative frequencies per program identification code, said alternative frequencies being stored in first and second frequency lists allocated to the first and second program identification codes, and receiver for performing this method. In order to prevent the tuning from being changed over to unwanted transmitters such as, for example pirate transmitters, a frequency pair is formed from at least one alternative frequency in the first frequency list and an alternative frequency in the second frequency list, if the transmitters to which the two alternative frequencies relate have a substantially mutually equal transmitter location and transmitter range, while the reception quality of the RF radio broadcasting signal of each transmitter of the frequency pair is measured and compared with a quality criterion and a flag signal is generated and applied to a flag signal processing unit if the reception quality of each one of the two alternative frequencies satisfies the quality criterion.

Abstract: An optical liquid sensor having a structure wherein an optical fiber (1) is turned back in an opposite direction, a light emitting device (7) is fitted to one of the ends of this optical fiber, a light reception device (8) is disposed at the other end and a pair of rod lens (2) and/or large-diameter glass optical fibers (3) are disposed at the linear part of the turn-back portion in such a manner as to face each other with a very small gap  delta  between them and to constitute a detection portion. Furthermore, the turn-back portion other than an opening for introducing an inspection liquid into the very small gap described above is sealed. This sensor can reduce the loss of light at the very small gap. A jig having a specific structure can be used when producing the sensor described above so that the end portion of the rod lens or the like is flush with the end portion of a metal pipe into which it is fitted, or projects slightly from the end portion of the metal pipe. The degree of degradation of an engine oil of a vehicle and a battery charge voltage can be detected by one device by disposing the voltage detection terminal on the surface of the sensor and providing an optical loss meter and a voltmeter to a measurement portion.

An umbilical passage (40) connects the container (12) to the chamber (22). With the air trap chamber (22) extending upwardly from the container portion (12), air is trapped in the chamber (22). The chamber (22) is then removeable by sealing the umbilical passage (40) shut and severing the passage (40) between the seal (43) and the chamber (22). Alternatively, air in the chamber (22) may be retained within the chamber (22) by collapsing of a rear wall (12a) of the container (12) against a forward wall (12b) of the container (12). The syringe (10) is then useable without any air contained in the container (12).

The pressure reduction causes the wrapping material to tightly encircle the article, the inner material to be stiffened, and the particles to be substantially immobilized relative to each other. A stiffening plate included on a surface of the wrapping material is adapted to receive a piercing device during the package forming process. The piercing device penetrates the wrapping material and the stiffening plate and establishes a communication between the sealed inner space and a vacuum creating mechanism.
