Abstract: The three-pole high-voltage device (16) has gas chambers (10, 12, 14) which are each allocated to a pole and correspond to one another, a pressure transmitter (20) being arranged on the encapsulation (18) of each gas chamber (10, 12, 14) in order to produce a signal corresponding to the pressure of the insulating gas. This signal is fed to an electronic circuit (24). The electronic circuit (24) emits a warning signal (W1) when the pressure difference between two gas chambers (12, 14) exceeds a specified limiting value. A further warning signal (W2) is produced when the pressure in one of the gas chambers (10, 12, 14) falls below a second limiting value. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A bone-related protein named OSF-4 which is obtained from bone tissue of a mammal including mouse or human, and a process for its production. This protein is a novel naturally occurring mammal protein of the cadherin family. OSF-4 acts as an adhesion molecule or a growth factor which takes part in the process of osteogenesis at the site of bone induction. OSF-4 can be used as an agent for treating bone metabolic diseases, and its high organ specificity for bones enables its use as a diagnostic reagent for bone metabolic diseases. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a method for paying for services and/or articles, a device is used with a data terminal (3) for reading and altering an amount on a credit balance medium (1) and a security module (7) having a first memory area (9) and a second memory area (10), which module is connected to the data terminal (3) via a communications channel (6). In a first transaction, a usable sum from the credit balance medium (1) is transferred into the first memory area (9). During the purchase of the service and/or of the article, a running cost total for the service and/or the article is calculated and, after the purchase of the service and/or of the article, in a second transaction an unused sum is transferred from the first memory area (9) to the credit balance medium (1). In a third transaction, the difference between the usable sum and the unused sum is transferred from the first memory area (9) into the second memory area (10). The device comprises a blocking or releasing means which allows transactions to the credit balance medium (1) only from the first memory area (9) and consequently does not permit transactions to the credit balance medium (1) from the second memory area (10). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Various accessories are to be able to be fastened to a ceiling light fixture in a simple and reliable manner, without adjustment and with tools which are as simple as possible. The ceiling light fixture (2) has a cover ring (6) with an edge groove (62). A mounting (10) which has a clamp-like upper part (13) can be suspended in this edge groove. A lower part (14) of the mounting is constructed to have the shape of a shoe and rests against the outside of the cover ring. The mounting parts have centring surfaces (133 respectively 145), which are constructed with mirror-image symmetry and are at a slight angle with respect to each other, and become tensioned against one another during assembly so as to bear against the cover ring in a tolerance-free manner. A spacer block (9) is constructed so as to be placable into the mounting (10) and a clamping element (11) for accommodating an accessory (7) is constructed so as to be placable and secure against rotation. The fastening device is thus self-adjusting. The fastening device can be used, in particular for interior spaces, for luminaires which are attached, for surface-type luminaires and built-in luminaires. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multiple execution unit processing system is provided wherein each execution unit 17, 19 has an associated instruction buffer 2, 4 and all instruction are executed in order. The first execution unit (unit 0) will always contain the oldest instruction and the second unit (unit 1) the newest. Processor instructions, such as load, store, add and the like are provided to each of the instruction buffers (0,1) from an instruction cache buffer. The first instruction (oldest) is placed in buffer 0 and the next (second) instruction is stored in buffer 1. It is determined during the decode stage whether the instructions are dependent on an immediately preceding instruction. If both instructions are independent of other instructions, then they can execute in parallel. However, if the second instruction is dependent on the first, then (subsequent to the first instruction being executed) it is laterally shifted to the first instruction buffer. Instructions are also defined as being dependent on an unavailable resource. In most cases these "unavailable" instructions are allowed to be executed in parallel on the execution units. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The hearing aid according to the invention consists of a skeleton which consists of an outer support element (3), an inner support element (4) and a connecting element (5) on which at least some of the electronic components (41, 42) of the hearing aid are arranged. The two support elements essentially form the end faces (IS, AS) of an irregular truncated cone. On the support elements, a diaphragm (2) is mounted in such a manner that it essentially forms the outer surface of the truncated cone. The diaphragm (2) and the skeleton (3/4/5) together form an essentially tubular moulding space in which a moulded body (1) matched to the individual auditory canal is cast in the ear of the user by means of a hardening casting compound. Before the casting process, the skeleton can be roughly matched to the individual auditory canal by appropriate deformation of the connecting element (5). The diaphragm (2) is permeable to gas but impermeable to liquid not only perpendicularly to its main surface but also parallel thereto, and it repels water and oil. <IMAGE>
