Abstract: A device for inductively transmitting control information to railway vehicles is disclosed, in which device in each case track conductor arrangements with two track conductor loops (S1, S2) are laid at individual transmission sites. The track conductor loops are operated independently of one another. Each of the loops transmits an identification code in addition to the control information. The order of the identification codes in a conductor track loop arrangement is permanently assigned to a direction of travel (FR) and known to the vehicle. At the vehicle, only such control information is evaluated in which the sequence of loop identification codes in the received information corresponds to the vehicle's own direction of travel determined for example from the rotation of the wheels. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A soft tip guiding catheter (10) for atraumatic insertion into delicate, tortuous coronary vessels and introduction of an angioplasty balloon catheter therethrough. The guiding catheter includes a main tubular portion (11) and a soft tubular tip (12) with respective, matching external and internal tapers (13,14) for increasing the contact area of the thermal bond. The outer and inner diameters of the main portion are uniform and match the respective outer and inner diameters of the soft tip for providing a uniform outer catheter surface and a continuous, uniform catheter passageway surface. The tapers further provide for a gradual change in durometer between the main portion and soft tip. The main portion preferably includes an inner layer of lubricous material (19), an outer layer (27) of a polyether block amide, and a reinforcing braid positioned therebetween (26). The layers of the main portion provide a thin catheter wall with pushability, torquability, and kink resistance. The composite durometer of the main portion is harder than the durometer of the soft tip, which comprises a combination of polyether block amide material and tungsten for increasing the radiopacity thereof. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A selectively actuatable lighter device is disclosed which includes a body defining reservoir for containing a combustible gaseous medium such as butane, and having a valve arranged to be selectively actuated between a normally closed position and an open position which permits the exit of the gaseous medium. Such lighter can selectively produce sparks at a location proximate to the gaseous medium exit to ignite the gaseous medium. Such lighter device embodies a resiliently releasable latch which normally prevents actuation of a valve actuator to the open position thereby preventing actuation of the valve. The latch is selectively movable to a position out of interference with the valve actuator, so that the gaseous medium may be released and ignited by the sparks. The latch is resiliently structured and mounted such that once a flame is produced and the valve actuator is released, the latch returns to its closed or latched position to prevent actuation of the valve to the open position by prevention of the pivotal motion of the valve actuator. To "re-use" the lighter, the latch must again be moved to an unlatched position so that the valve actuator can be opened for subsequent ignition of the gaseous medium.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a liquid jet recording head includes a first process of forming an ink flow passage pattern on a substrate by a resin layer; a second process of forming a covering resin layer to cover a resin layer on the resin layer; a third process of forming an ink discharging port pattern by a material having resistance to an oxygen plasma on the surface of the covering resin layer; a fourth process of forming ink discharging ports by dry etching the resin layer by the application of the oxygen plasma with the ink discharging port pattern as a mask; and a fifth process of eluting the resin layer. This method enables the ink discharging ports to be formed without cutting the substrate and at the same time, the distance between the ink discharging pressure generating elements and the orifices to be controlled rigidly; hence making it possible to manufacture a liquid jet recording head having a stabilized discharging characteristic. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A closed system, needless valve device includes a generally tubular body (20) defining an internal cavity. On the proximal end of the body there is an opening (25A) which is preferably sufficiently large to receive an ANSI standard tip of a medical implement. The distal end of the body has a generally tubular skirt (16). The valve also includes a hollow spike (24) having a closed tip. The spike includes at least one longitudinal 18-gauge hole (34) located distal the tip, and is seated inside the cavity such that the tip is below the proximal end of the body. An annular support cuff (28) is connected to the spike which seals off a portion of the cavity of the body such that an upper cavity containing the tip is defined. The valve also includes a plastic, resilient silicone seal (36) which fills the upper cavity and opening and covers the tip of the spike so as to present a flush surface. An adaptor enables the valve to be attached to a resealable container. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to increase the thermal efficiency of a three-pass boiler which is used for combined heating of a domestic hot water accumulator and a building heating system, it is proposed to surround the second and third pass with a first water space (5) having a comparatively low water volume. The first water space (5) is at least partly separated from a second water space (7) by a boundary surface (8). Whereas the heating of the water in the first water space (5) via heat-exchanger surfaces takes place directly by means of the hot waste gases, the second water space (7) is heated via the boundary surface (8) indirectly and by means of gravity circulation. The first water space serves solely to heat the accumulator, whereas the second water space has the connections for the heating-system circuit. The connection piece (9) for the flow of the accumulator circuit is situated at the highest point of the boiler and the return connection (10) at the lowest point of the first water space (5). At the same time, the water spaces (5, 7) are interconnected in this region, so that a normal gravity-flow operation of the boiler is possible. On the other hand, when a feed pump for the accumulator circuit is switched on, the gravity flow is cut off. <IMAGE>
