Title: Air conditioner for motor vehicles
Inventor: DOI KOICHI
IPC: B60H1/00
Filed: 1988-06-15
Abstract: The mode of operation of an air conditioner (VENTILATE, 2-LEVELS, HEATING etc) is controlled automatically as a function of ambient (environmental) conditions. The air conditioner comprises a control unit for selecting the mode of operation. In the HEATING mode of operation, the control unit sets the ratio of the air dispensed from a deicing nozzle to that dispensed from a foot nozzle, doing so as a function of the ambient conditions or on the basis of a supply air temperature which is required to maintain a desired air temperature in the vehicle space (cabin). The air conditioner also comprises a sensor arrangement for monitoring a selected climatic controlled variable which generates a corresponding sensor signal. The control unit calculates the required supply air temperature on the basis of the monitored variable.

Title: Drive arrangement
Inventor: EMMENTHAL KLAUS-DIETER DR ING
IPC: F01C1/02
Filed: 1988-06-23
Abstract: A drive arrangement for an eccentrically driven mass, for example the rotor of a displacement machine (1), is described with a drive shaft (5) which drives the mass (3) by way of a first eccentric device (7), and with an auxiliary shaft (19), torque-synchroconnected to the drive shaft, which auxiliary shaft constrains the mass (3) by way of a second eccentric device (21) arranged at an interval from the first eccentric device (7). In order to be able to compensate for apparent increases of the drive eccentricity (eAW) caused during operation due to deflection of the drive shaft, it is proposed that means (20) be provided for automatically adjusting the eccentricity of the second eccentric device (21). The said means may be arranged between the auxiliary shaft (19) and the second eccentric device formed by an eccentric gudgeon (21), and may be formed, for example, by a pivot joint. <IMAGE>

Title: Wrapping of the pistons to absorb the radial forces on axial flow rotary engines
IPC: F02B75/02
Filed: 1988-09-22
Abstract: The rotational movement of the engine shaft (1), which is rotatably supported in the cylinder covers (11) fixed to the engine housing (14), results in a circular movement of the cylinder liners (4), uniformly distributed on the cylinder pitch circle (3), about the axis of rotation (2). As a result the double pistons (6) in the cylinder bores (5) experience a centrifugal force outwards, which in the reciprocating movement causes heavy friction in the cylinder liners (4). In order to prevent this, an endless cable (12) or a chain (12), which close to its centre of gravity preferably passes through a notch (13) recessed into the piston lands (7), is wound around the double pistons (6), guided on the cam tracks (9) by means of guide8 rollers (8) according to the path of the doubly periodic sine curve (10). The length of the cable (12) or the chain (12) is precisely dimensioned so that in any position of the double piston (6) it is always just tight and thus absorbs the centrifugal forces of the double pistons (6). <IMAGE>

Savings in water by a comprehensive intensive process which leads to the highest purity. Pollutants are conducted out of the water. Convincing proof is given of which hazards surround us. TEA + BATHS + PURE WATER become a REMEDY. Ultrasonic purification filters first make possible the smooth circulation system. The vortexing nozzles achieve an immediate conversion of the hard mains water into mild, soft water jets. Energies are produced and transferred. Lime is converted and passed out. Hard water is no longer present in the entire field of action. Energies are repeatedly built up. The entire body and organism is renewed with "pure" water, the cells regenerate by themselves. The improvement in the quality of life gives grateful joy.
Patent DE-3904804-A1 (DE)
Title: Vehicle
Inventor: EGARTNER WALTER
IPC: B60C15/02
Filed: 1989-02-17
Abstract: Vehicles with high engine power and corresponding maximum speed require brakes with large dimensions. For reasons of comfort and inertia, tyres with a normally sized cross-section are required at least at the rear axles while the wheels of the front axle require relatively large rims to permit the installation of relatively large brake discs. However, for reasons of appearance it is not possible to arrange larger wheels at the front axle than at the rear axle. This problem is solved in that the rear-axle wheels consist of symmetrical tyres and rims and that the front-axle wheels each consist of an asymmetrical tyre and an asymmetrical rim matched thereto, the diameter of the outer rim flange 2 or of the tyre of the front wheel corresponding to the diameter of the outer rim flange or tyre of the rear axle wheel. In comparison with this, the diameter of the inner rim flange 3 is larger than the diameter of the outer rim flange 2. In accordance with the enlargement of the diameter of the inner rim flange 3, the inner diameter of the tyre is reduced. The arrangement and design of the wheels described above can be applied in all types of vehicles.

Filed: 1989-03-08
Abstract: A process is useful for manufacturing wall boards from balls of expanded glass, expanded clay, pumice granules, mica or a similar material and a foamed organic binder such as epoxide resin, PU phenol resin or the like. The binder is mixed with the balls, foamed and hardened between two die plates arranged at a distance apart to form a matrix. To obtain an extremely light but nevertheless stable wall board, a plurality of uniformly distributed recesses opening onto the outside of the board are formed in the mixture located between the two die plates while it is being compacted and before it hardens. The device used to implement the process comprises two die plates (1, 2) which can be moved towards each other in a press to compress the mixture introduced. The surface of both die plates (1, 2) is covered with a plurality of uniformly distributed, conical moulded bodies (4, 5) whose cross-section parallel to the surface of the die plate decreases in the direction of the other die plate.

Filed: 1989-11-16
Abstract: 1.2. The invention concerns a compound fabric for use as papermaking machine wire-cloth, consisting of a first or upper fabric and a second or lower fabric, arranged one above the other and held together by binding threads. 
<??>2.1. The principal disadvantage of single-ply or double-ply wire-cloths whereby those properties which determine the surface quality of the paper, namely the absence of marking, and those properties which are crucial for the stability of the wire-cloth fabric, namely the elimination of relative movement of the fabric plies, are insufficiently, if at all, in harmony with one another, is to be eliminated. 
<??>2.2. This is achieved when the binding threads form part of the wound structure of the plies, a first thread being interlaced with the, relatively speaking, transverse threads of the first fabric in the weave pattern of this fabric over at least one repeat length and a second thread being interlaced with the, relatively speaking, transverse threads of the second fabric over at least one repeat length, and the first thread and the second thread crossing each other repeatedly within the body of the fabric, and, furthermore, the first thread being interlaced with the, relatively speaking, transverse threads of the second fabric in the weave pattern of this second fabric over at least one repeat length while the second thread is interlaced with the, relatively speaking, transverse threads of the first fabric in the weave pattern of this first fabric over at least one repeat length.
