Abstract: The intake duct (1) of an internal combustion engine has a venturi-like wall portion (8) with which an axially displaceable throttling element (7) interacts. The throttle system thus represents a venturi nozzle with its favourable flow characteristics. The throttling element (7) is positioned by a variable magnetic field. At the same time, this magnetic field causes the throttling element (7) to perform microvibrational movements, allowing an air-bearing cushion to form between this throttling element (7) and a supporting element (10).

Abstract: Continuously operating filtering devices are voluminous when accommodated in a casing. The casing serves to maintain a determined pressure round the filter, for instance in view of released gases. It is the objective to keep the volume as small as possible. This is achieved by using plastic as carrier belt. Up to the present rubber carrier belts have been used. These however impose limitations on the diameter of the guide rollers. A limitation of the roller diameter to 25% in comparison to rubber carrier belts is possible with the use of plastic. In addition, plastic has a better resistance to aggressive substances.

Abstract: A record book or pad has its sheets formed in pairs each with a removable sheet 1 overlying a record sheet 2. The record sheets 2 are bound at a spine edge part 3 by binding rings 5. Opposed faces 1A and 2A of the sheets in each pair are provided with direct image transfer means (such as reactive coatings or ink capsules) by which a message applied by pressure to the removable sheet 1 is reproduced on the record sheet 2. Leaf edge parts 10 and 11 of the sheets in each pair are retained together by means which permits removal of the removable sheet 1 from the record sheet 2. Such retention may be by low tack adhesive on the removable sheet 1, by permanent adhesive and a line of weakness on the removable sheet 1 or by providing a line of weakness between the removable sheet and the record sheet where those sheets are formed by folding a single sheet. By retaining the leaf edge parts 10 and 11 together, a barrier sheet 25 may be interposed easily and selectively between successive pairs of sheets. 
     Each removable sheet 1 may be extended by a filler sheet portion into the binding rings 5 to provide the book or pad with a uniform thickness.

Abstract: In the inventive switching circuit, the input terminal (1) and the input terminal (2) are connected to switching transistors (9) and (6) respectively. One of the input voltages is output selectively from the output terminal (5). In order to output selectively one of the input voltages, the voltage detector (7), detects the level of the input voltage of the input terminal (1) so that either the switching transistor (9) or the switching transistor (6) turns on. The voltage of the output terminal (5) is controlled by the voltage controlling circuit (8) because the output signal of the voltage controlling circuit (8) controls the conducting state of the switching transistor (9) so that a stable output voltage can be obtained from the output voltage (9). The voltage controlling circuit is also arranged so as to be driven with a low consuming current, and moreover the chip size can be reduced.

Abstract: A reusable isolation enclosure (100) has a shell (110) and a closure member (112) adapted for purging gases from the enclosure. The closure member (112) includes filters (328) and vapor and moisture drains (127, 128). Replacement of ambient environmental gases in the sealed enclosure is provided. A purge gas is provided by the gas replacement system which quickly connects to the enclosure and quickly disconnects from the enclosure. Suction cups surrounding the ends of gas connection lines form the interface to the filter membrane and form a sealed connection with the closure member. -No other mechanical connection than the suction cups is required. The outlets and inlets of the purging system and the exhausting system are automatically disconnected by a spring valve when the isolation container to be purged is removed. When the closure member of the isolation enclosure is placed upon the purge system the weight of the package compresses the valve spring opening the valves, permitting the purge gas to flow. An empty isolation enclosure has insufficient weight to open the spring actuated valve system. Only enclosures carrying the weight of a product are purged. A flow indicator for measuring the rate of flow of gas through the quick connection means is connected thereto.

The direction (D) in which these locking portions (20, 22) recess or project is set so as to substantially perpendicularly cross the direction (A) in which the trough mounting base (15) is vibrated. Owing to this structure, the occurrence of relative vibration between the two locking portions (20, 22) is prevented even when the trough mounting base (15) is vibrated.

Abstract: An absolute encoder comprises a moving member in which track groups (T₂ and T₁) consisting of a plurality of slit patterns bit-coded in accordance with digital code representing an absolute address such as a binary-coded quaternary code are parallelly arranged in a form from higher bits to lower bits; a light source for illuminating the member; photodetecting elements (1 and 2) which output detection signals (A₀⁺ + to A₃⁻) for each track by receiving the illuminated light through the slit patterns; and processing means for processing the detected signals to generate bit reproducing signals (P₀ to P₃) and read the absolute addresses of the moving member by decoding. This processing means is provided with operating means (3 to 20) for generating the high order bit reproducing signals (P₂ and P₃) which are synchronized with the rising or falling of the low order bit reproducing signal (P₀) by operating the low order detection signals (A₀⁺ to A₀⁻) obtained from the lower bit track (T₁) and the high order detection signals (A₂⁺ to A₃⁻) obtained from the higher order bit track (T₂). If the number of the tracks is increased, it is necessary to provide an arrangement in which the light which illuminates the lower order bit track is received through a magnifying optical system and at the same time, the light which illuminates the track on the high order bit side is received directly.
