Abstract: The invention relates to the arrangement of the axle bearings in a running gear for rail vehicles, each axle bearing having on the outside a rubber-metal shell segment with an outer metal shell and an inner metal shell and a rubber intermediate layer and is mounted by means of this shell segment in the side cheek of the running gear. The object of the invention was to find an arrangement of the axle bearings for a running gear for rail vehicles in which a required primary vertical suspension is to be combined with a required horizontal  longitudinal rigidity of the axle bearings in a simple and cost-effective component. According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the rubber intermediate layer (4b) has break-throughs (6) running in the axial direction above the plane of the axle and in that metallic sub- segments (4d) are coaxially embedded in the rubber intermediate layer of the shell segment (4), beginning from the longitudinal sides of the latter. In this case there is arranged in each case one break-through (6) at the end of the sub-segments (4d) or one break-through (6) at the end of the sub-segments (4d) and at least one break-through (6) in the rubber intermediate layer (4b) above the break-throughs (6) at the end of the sub-segments (4d). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a recording method and a recording apparatus for use with a disc having a data area in which data has been recorded and an area for recording control information (ie, table of contents information) for accessing a head to the data area. The recording apparatus comprises means for inhibiting the fetching of a disc if the control information has not been recorded in a predetermined area of the disc. Further, by providing a memory for storing the control information, the invention permits the accessing of a head to the data area in accordance with the content of the memory. Thus, information recorded on the disc before the control information is recorded onto a predetermined area on the disc can be reproduced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for adjusting the orientation of a reflector of a motor vehicle headlight. In order to control the orientation of the reflector (1) about an axis (3) relative to support means (5), a connecting rod (10) articulated on the reflector (1) can be displaced in translation along an axis (11), in guide means (12), by operating a threaded rod (44) mounted in a tapped bore (45) of the guide means (12), along an axis (38) perpendicular to the abovementioned axis (11); the guide means (12) are dissociated from the support means (5) relative to which they can likewise be displaced in translation along the first-mentioned axis (11); it is thus possible to adjust the position of the guide means (12) relative to the support means (5) as a function of the trim of the vehicle without destroying an initially made adjustment, when empty, by rotating the threaded rod (44). <IMAGE>

Abstract: High vinyl polybutadiene rubber has a combination of properties which makes it highly suitable for utilization in many applications. For instance, high vinyl polybutadiene possesses a number of properties that make it desirable for utilization in building tires. However, high vinyl polybutadiene rubber does not generally have optimal cure characteristics. More specifically, high vinyl polybutadiene rubber has a slow cure rate and in some cases the ultimate degree of cure which can be attained is lower than desired. This invention discloses a high vinyl polybutadiene rubber which has enhanced cure characteristics. The high vinyl polybutadiene rubbers of this invention are prepared by lightly halogenating a standard high vinyl polybutadiene which has a vinyl content of at least about 60%. This invention specifically reveals a high vinyl polybutadiene rubber having enhanced cure characteristics which is comprised of polybutadiene having a vinyl content of at least about 60% wherein the polybutadiene contains about 0.1 to about 2.5 percent halogen atoms based upon the weight of the polybutadiene.

The piston pump (12) is arranged in an externally accessible manner on the machine housing (7) and the lubricating oil supply line (6) is designed as a two-armed bell crank joint. The one arm (6') is hinged with its free end on the cross-head pin (1) or on the connecting rod (3) and the other arm (6'') is hinged with its free end on the machine housing (7). The piston of the piston pump (12) is connected in a jointed manner to the machine housing (7) and the cylinder surrounding the piston is connected in a jointed manner to the arm (6''), which is hinged on the machine housing (7), of the bell crank joint. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process exists that operates by means of a biological reactor (8), in which microorganisms are immobilised, wherein the hydrogen sulphide contained in the waste gas (1) to be purified is oxidised by the microorganisms under conditions of oxygen limitation and wherein an oxygen-containing oxidant flow (2) is fed in cocurrent to the waste gas (1) in such a manner that a purified gas (7) having a residual oxygen concentration lower than 3 % by volume is produced. During this, it is desirable to maintain the content of oxygen in the waste gas continuously at a satisfactorily low level, adjusted to the quantity and composition of the waste gas flowing to the reactor. This is achieved by measuring the residual oxygen concentration in the purified gas (7) by means of an oxygen measurement device (9) and by controlling a blower (11) assigned to the oxidant flow (2) with a control computer (10) coupled on line to the oxygen measurement device (9) according to a defined control algorithm to a residual oxygen concentration of at most 3 % by volume in the purified gas (7). The formation of an explosive gas-air mixture is avoided by means of the closed control loop. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device (10) is proposed for the separation of mixtures by means of stacked membrane elements (12) which are spaced apart using supporting frames (11) comprising outer and inner rings (110, 111) and which have a bore (13) for draining the permeate, said device comprising a pipe for feeding the mixture to the device (10) and a pipe for removing the retentate and the permeate. In mixture chambers (14) formed between the outer and inner ring (110, 111), the incoming flow of the mixture at the surface (15) of the membrane elements (12) is essentially laminar and if the membrane surface remains equally active, the flow of cross sections of the mixture chambers (14) are reduced or expanded from the inlet to the outlet of the membrane element stack (16).

Abstract: For the magnetic energy of an inductive load (2) to be removed quickly, the driving voltage must be large. If the load (2) is disconnected via a MOSFET (3) operated as source follower, a premature switching-on of the MOSFET (3) when the voltage reverses across the inductive load (2) must be prevented. The series circuit of a Zener diode and a controllable switch is connected in known manner between gate and load (2). According to the invention, a current source is located between gate and source, the current of which is less than the current which would flow on Zener breakdown. The MOSFET (3) then becomes conductive on Zener breakdown and the energy is quickly removed by a high voltage, essentially by the Zener voltage.
