Abstract: With the lid opening/closing apparatus which makes it possible to open or close the lid (2) of a console box of an automobile from either side, the disengagement of the lid body which may occur when the lid body is opened can be prevented, and the setting of the operation force and operation stroke can be made simply. 
     The lid opening/closing apparatus consists of two pairs of hinge pins (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b) which are disposed to freely project or retract by aligning respective axis with both positions in right and left directions at both end face of the front and rear directions of the lid body (2) and engaged freely rotatably with the axis bearing hole formed in the inner face of the edge (1a) of the opening to which the lid body is mounted with the hinge pins in the projected state, energizing members (13a, 13b, 14a, 14b) which are disposed within the lid body and energize these hinge pins in the projecting directions, and two operation buttons (15, 16) which are mounted on the lid body to be freely slidable to correspond to each pair of the hinge pins. It is provided with engaging members (19, 20) which engage with the operation buttons pushed to the engaging position before the engagement releasing position where the engagement of the hinge pins is released and prevent the sliding toward outside, and rod (21) which prevents the other operation button from sliding to the inside beyond the engagement releasing position by contacting both ends of the rod with the inner faces of the two operation buttons when one of the operation buttons slides to the engaging position.

Abstract: The envelopes of different dimensions, opened along three edges, specifically one long and two short edges, are conveyed, standing on one of the opened long edges, to a removal apparatus in which the two sides (U and V) of the envelope are deflected to left and right by about 90 DEG . The envelope content (Z) is conveyed out of the removal apparatus in a straight line. The removal apparatus is formed by two suction cylinders (25, 26) arranged standing next to the envelope to left and right which, controlled by a sensor (27), grip the envelope sides, deflect them through about 90 DEG  and so separate them from the envelope content (U, V). The envelope is then ejected at one side, the unopened short edge at the rear supporting the linear movement of the content out of the apparatus. The third cutting mechanism (23) for the lower long edge forms a compact structural unit together with the suction cylinders (25, 26) and the other rotationally driven parts of the removal apparatus. All parts are advantageously driven by a common drive. The apparatus is compactly constructed and permits completely automatic removal of the envelope content (Z). The operation can readily be visually monitored. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sorption device for use in a cooling installation consists of a number of elongate sorption containers which are filled over a part of their length with sorption substances and form in this part a cooker adsorber zone and the other part of the length of which forms a condenser evaporator zone. The sorption containers rotate in two coaxial housings on a circular path and are situated in this case with the cooker adsorber part (16) in one housing (11) and with the condenser evaporator part (30) in the other housing. The housing (11) surrounding the cooker adsorber parts (16) has only one access (13) and one outlet (14) for the gaseous heat transfer medium so that the heat transfer medium, on its flow path through the housing, both extracts heat from and supplies heat to the cooker adsorber parts (16). The arrangement guarantees a particularly good energy efficiency. In the case of use as an air-cooling device in air-conditioning installations, a drying of the air to be cooled can take place, use being made of the heat carried off from the condenser evaporator region. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to be able to convey combustion material, in particular refuse, in combustion burners, use is made of rotating rollers (2) which are arranged at a spacing and form a conveyor grate. Arranged between the individual rollers (2) are blocking elements (9) which are intended to prevent combustion material from falling downwards through the rollers (2). The oxygen supply in the combustion chamber (1) takes place through gas passage openings (8) into the rollers (2), which are constructed as hollow rollers, so that as uniform as possible an application of oxygen to the combustion material is required and a high boiler efficiency is obtained. Since, however, there is necessarily a gap (13) present between the blocking elements (9) and the roller exteriors (12), a proportion of the combustion air is guided through this gap (13) because of the low flow resistance, and this is to be prevented on grounds of effective and uniform combustion. For this purpose, it is proposed to provide sealing elements (14) which seal off the interspace between the blocking elements (9) and the roller surfaces (12) with respect to the combustion chamber (1), and bear resiliently against the rollers (2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The known criteria used for backing up a dedicated link (LS) consist either in detection of an absence of carrier, or of an error rate in the received data which is higher than a predetermined level. It is apparent that a break (B) in the dedicated link between two connection centres (MULDEX) is not detected by the employment of such criteria. The invention makes provision, in response to a duration of inactivity in the link (LS) which is greater than a first predetermined duration detected by a back-up device (11), for the latter to establish communication through the back-up network (RES2), and drives a remote back-up device (12) for transmitting supervision frames in the link (LS). The data are transmitted between terminal equipment items (ETTD1, ETTD2) through the back-up network (RES2) until the back-up device (11) detects the supervision frames transmitted by the remote device (12). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for processing images for printing includes the steps of for each separation, making a pixel level determination of marking material coverage, based on the number of pixels within a given area that are turned on; if a determination is made that too much marking material will be placed within the given area, turning off a fraction of pixels in the area to reduce the amount of marking material that will be used for the given area; and to preventing artifacts from occurring in the pixel reduction step by utilizing a processing order through each given area which tends to randomize the turn off effect. Additionally, the results of the determination are compared for each separation, to determine that the turnoff result allows at least one corresponding pixel among each of the separations to be turned ON.

Abstract: A test method whereby a high current is supplied to a first pin (3a) of an integrated device to be tested, and the variation in the voltage drop between the first pin and a second pin (3b) on the device to be tested is determined; the two pins being connected to two pads (2a, 2b) in turn connected, inside the device to be tested, by a low-voltage-drop path (10). The variation in the voltage drop of the device to be tested is compared with the measured nominal variation of an undoubtedly sound device of the same type, to determine any excessive deviation indicative of deficiency. The supply current in fact results in power dissipation, local heating and, consequently, a variation in the resistance of the connecting wires or of the die attachment to the lead frame, the extent of which differs according to whether only one or both of the wires (8) of a two-wire connection (7) to be tested are present, and according to whether the die is attached properly, poorly or badly to the lead frame. This variation in resistance is reflected in the amount or speed by which the detected voltage drop varies, thus enabling sound parts to be distinguished from faulty ones.
