Title: Coupling device
Inventor: KUME TAKESHI
IPC: B60K17/35
Filed: 1988-06-28
Abstract: A coupling device is arranged between driving and driven shafts (30) and has a frame (24) a first shaft, which forms one of the driving and driven shafts, and a second shaft, which forms the other of the driving and driven shafts. A sleeve (18) is formed adjacent to the first shaft and is driven by it. The second shaft (30) extends parallel to the sleeve (18) and is partially surrounded by it. One of the shafts is supported by the frame (24), and an annular support (54), which is mounted for a radial movement on the frame (24), supports the other shafts (30). A circumferential groove with a bevelled form in axial cross-section is formed in the inner circumferential side of the sleeve (18) or the outer circumferential side of the second shaft (30), and a ring, which is axially displaceable on the other, outer circumferential side but angularly fixed relative to it and has a bevelled form in axial cross-section, is positioned within the groove. The shafts can be offset radially relative to one another by moving the support (54), the ring and the groove thus acting in the manner of a wedge, so as to vary the contact pressure between them and thereby vary the torque transmitted between the shafts. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and device for the topometric measurement of the surface configuration of an eye
Inventor: GRIMM WOLFGANG DR
IPC: A61B3/107
Filed: 1988-09-14
Abstract: In order to measure the surface of the eye, a sinusoidal grid is projected onto said surface. After each recording, the grid is moved by 1/4 of the grid constant, and the images thus produced, which are detected by a receiver (17) and stored in a computing system (20), are evaluated by means of an image processing procedure in the computer. The advantage of this method consists in achieving a very high resolution and detailed measurement, carried out in seconds, of the configuration of the surface of the front eye section with cornea, limbus, sclera and appendages as well as covering thereof. The data thus obtained permit individual, automatic adaptation of contact lenses, possibly taking account of the break-up time of the film of tears. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for the volumetrically correct delivery of liquids in the microlitre range
Inventor: KLINGNER EDITH DIPL PHYS
IPC: G01F11/02
Filed: 1988-10-03
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the volumetrically correct delivery of liquids in the microfilter range and ultramicrofilter range. The method is principally used in clinical chemistry laboratories, but also in the water industry and agriculture. In this method, the predosed liquid is passed into the outlet orifice of the metering apparatus and there the liquid skin formed therefrom at this position with a part of its volume is set in vibration until this liquid skin detaches with the residual volume of the predosed liquid fed to it and taken up by it. The vibrations are directed to the liquid volume perpendicularly to the direction of movement of the liquid.

Title: Apparatus for affixing an elastic foil band to cuboid, cylindrical or conical containers or articles
Inventor: FUCHS GUENTHER DIPL ING
IPC: B65C3/06
Filed: 1988-11-19
Abstract: Bands are often drawn over containers or articles in order to identify the content. In addition to the hot shrink-on method, it has been possible for the method of drawing over an elastic foil in the cold way to achieve success. The invention is to be a universal apparatus which can band a multiplicity of articles without an exchange of the grippers. Furthermore, the drawing over of the articles is to take place in one operation, without an interruption in the main movement of the gripper in relation to the article, with the band at the same time being positioned at a predetermined point. The foil (3) is received by grippers (2), stretched and drawn over the container (1). At the point provided, the grippers are relieved and the foil is held in position by a braking device (4 and 5). The grippers are drawn out from between the braked foil and the container, before a final readjustment of the stretching of the foil takes place. The banding of containers. <IMAGE>

Patent DE-3911510-A1 (DE)
Inventor: FUCHS KARL-HEINZ
IPC: B65D47/34
Filed: 1989-04-08
Abstract: A dispensing facility (1) to be operated by pressure actuation has on an actuation handle (22) a foaming device (100) which is mounted from outside as an intrinsically enclosed unit by means of a plug-in connection and has in the flow path a foaming body (75) located essentially on the same axis as the dispensing orifice (80). With the aid of two pumps (2,50), to be actuated simultaneously, both a medium and compressed air are forced, after being mixed together, through the foaming body (75) and are foamed until they reach the outlet opening (80) in a final channel (81). As a result, a very good foam quality is achieved with a simple design. <IMAGE>
Patent DE-3913631-A1 (DE)
Inventor: BUTENOP KLAUS
IPC: B60R22/36
Filed: 1989-04-25
Abstract: The invention concerns a safety-belt roller working on the radial-locking principle. The roller as a belt-sensitive system has a rotably mounted, spring-loaded inertial mass which operates together with a control lever, the control lever being pivotable into internal toothing on a calotte integral with the housing. The internal toothing matches outer toothing, the two sets of toothing being free to turn with respect to the calotte and held in position by an externally located lever. The invention simplifies control of the switching in and out of the blocking system and improves operating safety. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the lever (19) has an arm (20) which engages in the outer toothing (17) disposed on the calotte (13) and an arm (22) which monitors the thickness of the coil (12) of belt wound on the belt wind axle and, in the position in which it engages with the outer toothing (17), is rotably mounted under spring loading (23) on the belt roller housing (11).

Title: Removing phosphate from waste water - by activated sludge treatment after pre-incubation of water with recycle sludge in presence of iron oxide precipitant
Inventor: BAGDAHN SIEGFRIED
IPC: C02F1/52
Filed: 1989-04-28
Abstract: Pptn. of chemical pollutants, esp. phosphates, in waste water comprises purifying the water in a clarifying plant at least in one activated sludge stage, and the activated sludge (AS) is withdrawn from this stage and returned as recycle sludge (RS).  A portion of this is removed as excess sludge (to maintain a constant level of AS) and an iron oxide contg. pptg. agent is added to RS. The new features are that all the RS is added to the waste water in a separate step, before the AS stage, without introducing any additional O2, and the RS/waste water mixt. is allowed to stand for at least 30 min before passing to the AS stage. USE/ADVANTAGE - By carrying out the pptn in a separate stage (rather thanin the AS stage), this method provides a significantly higher level of pptn. and thus more effective elimination of phosphate, even in non-acidic waters.  The new treatment step can be incorporated into existing plants with only small modifications.
