Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the absorption of acid gases, such as CO2 and H2S, from gas mixtures. According to the invention, acid gases are absorbed from a gas mixture by contacting this gas mixture with a liquid in which is dissolved so high a concentration of an amino acid or a salt thereof that a precipitate is formed. The contact takes place in a column of the packing-free type or a column suitable for processing slurries.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une machine à laver (1) dans laquelle des ions métalliques produits par une unité d'élution (100) ionique peuvent être introduits au moment de la dernière étape de rinçage. La durée de la dernière étape de rinçage pendant laquelle les ions métalliques sont introduits est plus longue que celle pendant laquelle il n'y a pas d'introduction d'ions métalliques. Lorsque les ions métalliques sont introduits pendant l'étape de rinçage, l'écoulement peut être fort et faible ou il peut être fort et suivi d'un temps de repos. Lorsqu'on détecte un déséquilibre pendant la rotation de séchage de la cuve de lavage (30), après l'introduction des ions métalliques, on exécute un traitement différent de celui exécuté en cas de détection de déséquilibre lorsqu'il n'y a pas d'introduction d'ions métalliques.

Abstract: Disclosed is a rocker bearing, preferably for chassis components of motor vehicles, comprising a tubular articulated housing (8) that forms a cylindrical interior space and receives a metallic inner part (1) and an elastomer member (5) which surrounds the inner part (1) and is arranged so as to adhere thereto. Said elastomer member (5) is axially prestressed in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the articulated housing by means of interposed annular stops (6, 7) that are embodied as bearing shells, are connected in an adhesive manner to the elastomer member, and cooperate with corresponding protrusions (10) which extend into the interior space of the articulated housing (8). At least one of said protrusions is formed by a spring retention ring (11) that is inserted into a radial depression (12) of the interior space of the articulated housing (8). The lateral face of said spring retention ring (11), which faces the center of the interior space, rests against one of the axial exterior faces (13) of one of the annular stops. Said axial exterior face (13) of the annular stop (6), which faces the spring retention ring (11), is provided with a circular recess (14) that radially extends on the outer edge of the annular stop (6), the annular stop (6) cooperating with the spring retention ring (11). The spring retention ring (11) engages into said recess (14) in the assembled state of the rocker bearing. The inventive design ensures that the spring retention ring remains in the predetermined position thereof even when the rocker bearing is subject to great dynamic loads.

Abstract: Surfaces of the plastic are abraded by directing a jet of an abrasive material in a gas at them.  Dried, oil free gas is employed, The stream of gas and abrasive is applied by a low pressure jet, preferably from a pressure vessel, at not more than2.5bar. Application of the abrasive stream by a vortex jet nozzle avoids excess treatment of local areas. Treatment continues until a completely matt surface is achieved. Residual abrasive is removed from the surface by blowing away with dry, oil-free compressed air. Quality control of the surface is effected by measuring surface resistance and/or through optical control using a comparison probe. Treatment occurs in a climate controlled, draught-free atmosphere. Prior to transportation the treated surface is vacuum packaged. The jetting medium is not guided in a circle. Highest surface quality is achieved when the abrasive stream is not guided in a circular movement. An Independent claim is included for a semi-finished product, preferably of carbon fiber reinforced plastic whose surfaces are prepared by the claimed method.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur le débruitage d'électrogrammes, ou d'autres signaux médicaux au moyen de transformations en ondelettes. On peut par exemple représenter un électrogramme par un ensemble fini d'ondelettes obtenu par décomposition de l'électrogramme dans un domaine échelle-temps. Selon l'invention après avoir transformé l'électrogramme en un ensemble d'ondelettes on effectue un seuillage sur les ondelettes pour éliminer le bruit tout en conservant l'information. On peut utiliser pour les ondelettes des seuils différents d'échelles différentes pour améliorer les résultats du débruitage. Si l'un des seuils dépasse un coefficient d'ondelette, on réduit ledit coefficient. Après le processus de seuillage, on peut reconvertir les ondelettes en un électrogramme débruité pouvant être analysé ou traité. Cette transformation en ondelettes permet donc d'obtenir un débruitage efficace de l'électrogramme.
