Abstract: La présente invention décrit un dispositif et matériau (12) pour circuits électroniques qui assure une protection contre les impulsions de surtension transitoires rapides (11). Le dispositif à électrodes (24) peut en outre être adapté pour assurer une division électrostatique. Des particules conductrices (22) sont dispersées uniformément dans une matrice ou un liant isolant (23) pour produire un matériau ayant des caractéristiques de résistance non linéaire. Les caractéristiques de résistance non linéaire du matériau sont déterminées par l'espacement des particules à l'intérieur du liant ainsi que par les propriétés électriques du liant isolant. En adaptant la séparation entre les particules conductrices, ce qui permet de réguler le tunnelage quantum-mécanique, on peut faire varier les propriétés électriques du matériau non linéaire à l'intérieur d'une plage de variation étendue.

Granted: 1992-06-17
Abstract: Un système simple de réglage du glissement de l'entraînement ou d'aide au démarrage freine une roue qui patine et la ramène à environ la vitesse de l'autre roue. A cet effet, la canalisation de freinage (2a, 2b) est divisée par un agencement (4) à soupape magnétique (4a). Dans la partie de la canalisation de freinage (2b) en aval de la soupape est agencé un générateur de pression (5). Afin d'améliorer la sécurité du système, l'agencement à soupape, outre sa fonction de soupape magnétique, est sensible à la pression de freinage générée dans le cylindre principal de freinage, de façon à ouvrir de nouveau la canalisation de freinage lorsqu'une pression de freinage est générée. La pression ne peut s'accumuler dans une chambre de commande qui ouvre une soupape de mise en communication de la canalisation de freinage qu'au moyen d'une soupape unidirectionnelle (soupape de non-retour) (11). La pression s'accumule dans la chambre de commande au moyen d'une soupape d'étranglement (12).

Abstract: In the overlapping formation (S') to be wound up together with a winding band (4) into a roll, the individual multi-sheet double-folded printing products (3) are inclined at a small angle ( alpha ) with respect to the conveying direction (B). The laterally protruding corners (3c, 3d) of the printing products (3) here lie on imaginary straight lines (7, 8) which run parallel to the conveying direction (B). The lateral folded edges (3b) of the printing products (3) are mutually offset by a certain amount (a) in a direction (C) running transversely with respect to the conveying direction (B). The lateral folded edges (3b) therefore do not come to lie one above the other during winding-up, this preventing a thickened region on one side of the roll.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus for displaying an accumulated image of very faint light emitted from an object superimposed on an image of the object's configuration. Configuration image data representing an external form of an object is stored in advance in a configuration image memory (20). A two-dimensional image of faint light emitted from the object (10) is detected by a high-sensitivity image pickup means (15) including a two-dimensional photon-counting tube (13). Faint light image data representing the detected faint light image is accumulated by an adder circuit (19), and stored in a faint light image memory (21) the output of which is updated with each accumulation operation. The current, most recently updated stored faint light image data is superposed on the stored configuration data for each accumulation operation, and based on the superposed image data a superposed image is displayed on a display device (23). The image displayed thus displays the build-up in real time of the faint light image.

Abstract: In a moving-bed reactor installation (1) for treating fluids by means of a bulk material (2), in which at least one bulk material flows downwards from above and at least one fluid flows upwards from below, greater flexibility in apportioning the bulk material into, and in removing bulk material from, at least two reaction chambers (5A, 5B) arranged above one another is to be achieved. Each reaction chamber has a gas distributor plate (6A, 6B), each gas distributor plate being formed preferably from funnel- or channel-shaped elements (29, 28). Each reaction chamber is further equipped with a bulk material distributor plate (4A; 4B). The object is essentially achieved by tubes or shafts being run through at least one of the gas distributor plates (6A; 6B), so that the bulk material (2) is passed through the reaction chamber, segregated from the bulk material located inside the reaction chamber. Moving-bed reactor installations of this type can be used to carry out a very wide variety of fluid treatments, especially adsorption processes, an essentially planparallel bulk material discharge behaviour from the individual reaction chambers being achievable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to drive gates, in addition to the elements which carry out the work, such as circulating chains etc., electrical drive units are known in which an electric motor, a transmission unit and further control elements are accommodated inside a housing which consists of a baseplate and housing and is screwed to the cover etc.. In this case, it is also known for the limit switches, for the approach to the limit positions of the gate, to be accommodated inside the housing. In order additionally to define points at which the moving door actually changes over from high speed to slow speed, time-dependent controllers were used in the past. In order to increase the adjustment capability and the ease of repair, it is intended to implement all four positions by electromechanical limit switches. To this end, in addition to the previously known two limit switches which were mounted on the baseplate (1) in addition to longitudinally moving control elements, two such limit switches are also accommodated in a suitable depression (27) in the baseplate (1) under the control elements and are held in position by retaining parts which are mounted and screwed on with the aid of the two other limit switches. <IMAGE>
