Abstract: A dispensing valve assembly for hot water, in particular on a hot drink dispenser. The assembly has three dispensing valves (AV1, AV2, AV3). The valve chambers (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) of the dispensing valves have on the inlet side in each case an inflow duct (3.11, 3.21, 3.31) and an outflow duct (3.12, 3.22, 3.32). The inflow ducts and outflow ducts are interconnected in such a manner that the valve chambers (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) of the dispensing valves are connected one behind another and a continuous flow path is created. Each valve chamber is connected via a valve seat to a valve outlet. The first inflow duct (3.11) is connected via a supply line (18.4) and the last outflow duct via a removal line (18.1) to the hot water container (18). Arranged in the supply line (18.4) is a pump (15) and in the removal line (18.1) a throttle device (16). With the pump (15) running, a circulation flow (S) is created through the valve chambers (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) and, as a result of the throttle device (16), a pressure increase is created in the valve chambers to prevent the formation of steam bubbles in the valves. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The intention is to achieve a structural simplification and increased functional reliability in the brake system. 
<??>The brake system has a conduit extending between a pressure generator and a load. Arranged in this conduit is a shut-off valve with a pressure relief valve connected in parallel. A pressure source on the load side can feed pressure medium into the conduit with the shut-off valve closed. When a response pressure of the pressure relief valve is exceeded, the pressure medium can be released to the pressure generator. 
<??>The shut-off valve has a valve seat (36) on the load side and a closing member (39) which is situated on the pressure-generator side and can be made to engage on the valve seat (36) by the action of a magnetic force on an armature (59). A compression spring (64) is arranged between the armature (59) and the closing member (39). In the closed position of the valve, this spring exerts a closing force on the closing member (39) which is matched to the response pressure. 
<??>The shut-off valve and the pressure relief valve are thus embodied in one valve unit (24). Any foreign bodies which have settled on the valve seat (36) during the pressure relief function are flushed out in the open position of the shut-off valve. 
<??>The valve unit (24) is suitable for brake systems with an anti-lock and drive-slip (traction) control device.

Abstract: An electro-mechanical system for shifting gears on a multi-gear bicycle or other human-powered vehicle includes a closed loop derailleur position control system using circuitry for measuring derailleur position. Shifting gears is accomplished automatically based on rider cadence or manually using signals supplied by hand operated switches. The system calculates gear ratios based on bicycle speed and cadence and then sorts the gear ratios in order from lowest to highest. During automatic operation, the system calculates a cadence from bicycle speed and gear ratio, determines if the calculated cadence is within predetermined limits set by the rider, and it changes the gear ratio if the calculated cadence is not within the predetermined limits. The system has additional modes of operation which include calibration modes for calibrating the positions of the front and rear derailleurs for each gear, as well as a semi-automatic mode in which the system calculates the cadence from the bicycle speed and gear ratio, and signals the rider to upshift or downshift if the cadence is outside of the predetermined limits selected by the rider. The electronic bicycle transmission control system of the present invention is retrofittable to a wide range of conventional multi-gear bicycles.

Filed: 1991-04-22
Abstract: Un implant chirurgical amélioré, y compris des implants dentaires, formé à partir d'un groupe composé de chrome-cobalt et de ses alliages, et de Ti et de ses alliages, placé en contact avec une surface d'appui formée par un polyéthylène à poids molécualire très élevé (PEPMTE), et un procédé de fabrication de l'implant sont décrits. L'implant chirurgical amélioré est conçu pour soutenir l'usure par l'effritement et le frottement dus au micromouvement vibratoire de l'implant contre la structure osseuse environnante et pour diminuer l'usure de la composante de polyéthylène à poids moléculaire très élevé (PEPMTE) prolongeant ainsi sa longévité de service. Un tel micromouvement peut causer un noircissement indésirable dans le tissu environnant et nécessiter le remplacement prématuré de l'implant. Le procédé comprend principalement l'implantation ionique du composant métallique, ce qui produit une augmentation de sa microdureté et une réduction dans son coefficient de friction, en particulier lorsqu'il s'articule contre le composant de polyéthylène à poids moléculaire très élevé.
