Abstract: A catalyst deterioration determination device determines whether or not a catalyst which purifies exhaust gases exhausted from an internal combustion engine is deteriorated based on the capacity of the catalyst for purifying exhaust gases. If it is determined that the catalyst is deteriorated, first sulfur elimination control is executed for eliminating sulfur content accumulated in the catalyst. Further, when the first sulfur elimination control is terminated, the deterioration determination of the catalyst is executed. Then, when it is determined by the deterioration determination that the catalyst is not deteriorated, it is determined that the fuel is high-sulfur fuel containing lots of sulfur content.

Abstract: The mechanism has a control lever (1) with a latch (7) interposed between the lever and a load-bearing structure (2) for locking the lever and the structure with each other. The latch is handled toward a locking position under effect of effort exerted by deformable units (8) constituted of a torsion spring (9) to oppose stress of the units and toward an inverse unlocking position releasing the lever from its locking position under the effect of maintaining movement of an operator on a monostable unit (11) of the stress of the units coupling with the latch by a mechanical connection (14).

Abstract: An injection device (1) for injecting predetermined doses of liquid drug is disclosed. The injection device (1) comprises a dose setting mechanism and an injection mechanism. A torsion spring (12) is connected to the dose setting mechanism and to the injection mechanism in such a manner that energy is stored in the torsion spring (12) during dose setting, and the energy is released during injection, the stored energy being used for causing the set dose to be injected. A first mode defining element (8) and a second mode defining element (9) are angularly movable relative to each other in response to operation of the dose setting mechanism. They are also axially movable relative to each other between a first position in which the dose setting mechanism can be operated to set a dose and a second position in which the injection mechanism can be operated to inject a set dose. The mode defining elements (8, 9) are shaped in such a manner that mutual axial movements between the first position and the second position are only possible at a limited number of mutual angular positions, said angular positions each corresponding to setting of a predetermined dose of liquid drug. Thereby the risk of setting and/or injecting an incorrect dose is considerably reduced. Furthermore, the torsion spring (12) ensures easy operability for persons having poor dexterity or low finger strength.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a distribution controller (19) for controlling a distribution of electrical power in an assigned first power distribution region (1). The controller is adapted to be connected to process devices (21) which in turn interact with primary devices (5,7,9.11,13) of the assigned first region. The distribution controller is provided with a standardized, machine-readable network description of the first region and comprises means to identify, following a network reconfiguration, the extent of an orphan network section that is no longer connected to the first region. The distribution controller is further adapted to transmit a description of the orphan network section to a second distribution controller controlling a second or neighbouring power distribution region to which the orphan section has been connected as a consequence of the network reconfiguration. Due to this capablility of transmitting descriptions of the network section changing hands, there is no need to keep and update a description of the entire network in each controller of the power distribution system.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process of preparing aqueous slurries of vesiculated granules of crosslinked polyester resin wherein the granules have a maximum shrinkage on drying of 5% of the granule diameter. Previously-known processes for the preparation of granules of this type have utilized polyamines; this has led to odor and color problems. These problems may be eliminated or substantially reduced by the use of bases which are metal oxides, hydroxides or salts wherein the metal cation is selected from Ca, Mg, Ba, Ti, Zn, Pb, Sr and Co and, when a metal salt is used, the pKa value of the conjugate acid of the anion is greater than 2. The resulting granules are useful at matting and opacifying agents in, for example, paint compositions.

Abstract: An arrangement for adjusting the mass of gobs of thermoplastic material, especially molten glass, which are deformed in a positive manner in the mold of a molding machine by means of a pressing member which penetrates into the gobs. A distance transducer mechanically detects the maximum depth of penetration reached by the pressing member during each molding-machine operating cycle. The distance transducer is connected with a metallic actuating element for a differential transducer, at whose output is produced an electrical signal proportional to the maximum penetration depth reached, this signal being applied to an automatic regulating circuit which adjusts the setting of a dosing structure which controls the mass of the gobs. The regulating circuit includes, at the output of the differential transformer and connected one after the next, a measurement transducer, a maximum-value storage, a sample-and-hold circuit, a summing junction, a PI- or PID-regulator and an adjusting motor which drives an adjusting member for the dosing structure, as well as a feedback transducer. The feedback transducer is connected to the PI- or PID-regulator via a rotary-angle-to-voltage converter. A control and display panel is connected to a control logic circuit, the latter connected to the maximum-value storage and to the sample-and-hold circuit, the control logic circuit receiving a machine synchronization signal once per machine operating cycle. A desired-value potentiometer furnishes a desired-value voltage representing the optimum penetration depth for the pressing member, this voltage being applied to the summing junction. A weighting circuit can be provided to take into account the different maximum diameters of different pressing members which may from time to time be used. The feedback transducer is automatically returned to a middle angular setting thereof. The distance transducer can be constructed in several different ways, disclosed.
