Abstract: The invention relates to a steering lock device including:
     a fixed housing (11)   a cylinder body (12) mounted to the housing (11),   a rotor (14) disposed in the cylinder body (12) and made rotatable
by an inserted key (13),   a steering shaft (17) having an engagement recess (38) defined
in a portion of a circumferential surface,   a lock pin body slidably supported in the housing (11) and
engageable at a top end with the engagement recess (38), and   a lock mechanism (16) actuated in accordance with the rotation
of the rotor (14) to conduct engagement and release engagement
of the lock pin body with and from the engagement
recess (38), wherein the lock pin body comprises a lock pin
(39, 139a) that slides being guided by a first slide hole
(42) in the housing (11) and engageable at the top end with
the engagement recess (3) and a slider (40, 139b) that slides

by way of a cam (48).   
The invention is characterized in that the lock pin (39; 139a)
is formed by pressing into a plate-shaped member, wherein burr
escape portions (53) are defined at corners of the first slide
hole (42) corresponding to burrs (51; 151), formed on the outer
peripheral edge of the lock pin (39; 139a) upon pressing such

Patent EP-1347229-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SCHACHT PETER BERGSROM
IPC: F16L59/14
Filed: 2003-03-21
Abstract: Known insulated pipes for the transmission of fluids that may assume a range of
temperatures and pressures are prepared with compensators and/or restraining for
absorbing the axial forces and length deviations caused by the temperature variations
in particular. When they are installed in the ground an advanced combination of
materials surrounding the pipes is required, in order that an installation becomes
stable in use and is not subject to breakdown due to unfortunate combinations of
pressure and temperature. According to the invention all these disadvantages are
eliminated by providing the inner pressure resisting pipe with a circumferential fold at
regular intervals, which is dimensioned to compensate the increase of lenght that
occurs between two subsequent circumferential folds. Such pipes may be prefabricated
and laid with only a simple containment, e.g. by back-fill of the earth from
an excavation.

Abstract: Provided is a chromium-free metal surface treatment agent excellent in rust
inhibitive performance which can be used in a surface treatment of metal products, in
particular, galvanized metal products. The metal surface treatment agent consists
essentially of a siliceous binder solution comprising water and/or alcohol as a solvent, and
the concentration of the silica component is 8 to 25% by weight. In particular, a metal
surface treatment agent containing an alcoholic solution of alkoxysilane oligomer having a
weight averaged molecular weight of 1000 to 10000, which is obtained by hydrolyzed
condensation polymerization of alkoxysilane, can suppress the occurrence of white rusting
for a long time. It is preferred that 3 to 25 parts by weight of a dispersed nano-sized
titanium dioxide powderhaving an average primary particle size of not more than 70 nm,
per 100 parts by weight of the silica component be suspended in the siliceous binder
solution. The rust inhibitive performance of the metal surface treatment agent can be
further imparted by using an alcohol-soluble polyvinyl butyral resin and by adding a
silane coupling agent having a vinyl or epoxy group as a functional group, in combination
with a dispersed nano-sized powder of titanium dioxide.

Abstract: Bei der Übertragung von Audio-/Video-Signalen in modernen Telekommunikationsnetzen kommt es häufig zu starken Schwankungen der Übertragungskapazität. Gelegentlich können sogar Übertragungspausen auftreten. Für die Verbesserung der Wiedergabe wird nachfolgendes Verfahren vorgeschlagen, das sowohl bei GSM-Netzen und künftigen UMTS-Netzen als auch für das Festnetz angewendet werden kann. Bei skalierbaren Codierverfahren für die Audio- und Videoübertragung wird der Bitstrom in einen Basis-Bitstrom und eine definierte Anzahl von Enhancement-Bitströmen zerlegt. Das Verfahren schlägt vor, den Basis-Bitstrom, der eine vollwertige Wiedergabe garantiert, vorrangig zu übertragen. Enhancement-Bitströme werden nur in dem Maße übertragen, wie es die verfügbare Übertragungsbitrate im Netz zulässt. Die vorrangige Übertragung des Basis-Bitstromes ermöglicht einen schnellen Start der Wiedergabe. Zur Überbrückung von Übertragungspausen wird der Basis-Bitstrom in einem Puffer abgelegt.

Abstract: Here is disclosed a method and apparatus for folding a continuously fed in two. The web is folded along guide means defining a folding guide line with a fold angle gradually reduced. In the course of gradually reducing the fold angle, a plurality of guide rolls through are pressed against transversely opposite side edge portions of the web. Immediately before the stage on which the web is completely folded in two, there are provided detector means adapted to detect actual positions of the respective side edge portions and swing rolls located upstream of these detector means adapted to change a crossing angle of the web with respect to a machine direction. Actuators interposed between the detector means and the swing guide rolls cause the swing guide rolls to swing and thereby to move the side edge portions toward predetermined positions.

Abstract: An apparatus for stabilizing the frequency of a piezoelectric crystal resonator, especially useful in common emergency positioning radio beacons. A temperature compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) (20) is mounted on one surface of a thin substrate. The TCXO includes a piezoelectric device compensation network to reduce the frequency fluctuations of the crystal through variations in temperature. A heating circuit (25) is mounted to the opposing surface of the substrate, thereby providing a thermal connection between the two circuits. The heating circuit includes a temperature sensor (70) for sensing changes in ambient temperatures and a heater control amplifier (60) for adjusting the power of a heating element. The substrate with the two circuits disposed thereon is suspended within a hermetically sealed enclosure by a plurality of support pins. The crystal oscillator is therefore maintained within a certain temperature range while temperatures at which activity dips often occur are avoided.
