Abstract: The substrate holder (8) serves for holding glass lenses (17, 18) to be coated. It has a bearing axle (10), in each of the end regions of which a cross-support (14, 19) for holding a glass lens (17, 18) is arranged on both sides of the bearing axle (10). The two cross- supports (14, 19) are essentially at right angles to the bearing axle (10). One of them is provided with a springy part (20, 21), which has end shoes (22, 23). The other cross-support (14) is rigid. It has, on both sides of the axle (10), a groove (15) for holding a glass lens (17 or 18). The free support ends are curved towards the opposite cross-support (19). This substrate holder ensures that the treated glass lenses not only are coated identically in pairs and optimally by vapour deposition but are also identical with respect to further process steps, so that virtually identical pairs of glass lenses result at the end of their treatment. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method and device for detection of and protection against the effect of disturbing static and/or quasi-static magnetic fields on measurement with a magnetoelastic force and torque transducer which transducer is magnetized by a symmetrical, periodic supply current, the Fourier representation of which only comprises a fundamental wave and odd harmonics of this fundamental wave. If the magnetic flux density B generated in a body of ferromagnetic material by a sinusoidal symmetrical magnetic field strength (magnetization) exhibits even harmonics, this means that the body also has superimposed static and/or quasi-static magnetization. According to the invention the content of even harmonics determined and measured, respectively. The content corresponds to the degree of static and/or quasi-static magnetization and is used as input signal to a regulator (11) which, with the aid of a direct current in, for example, a separate winding (14) reduces the static and/or quasi-static magnetization to zero.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for the continuous bioremediation of sites contaminated with a hazardous substance. The apparatus includes a subsurface pumping system, for removing the hazardous substance contained in a phase separate from groundwater, which is integrated with a means for microbiologically treating the contaminated site. The means for microbiologically treating the contaminated site preferably includes hazardous substance degrading microorganisms. 
     In operation, a subsurface pumping system separates, either above or below-ground, a free-product phase from the contaminated groundwater. The separated free-product is stored for off-site disposal. Contaminated groundwater is fed into the microbiological treatment system for further treatment and eventual recirculation into the contaminated site.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for indicating contamination degree and a method of judging the contamination degree for enabling degree of contamination of oil in a hydraulic circuit to be properly grasped. The device has filters arranged in the hydraulic circuit, sensors capable of operating when the pressure differentials between the inlets and outlets of the respective filters have exceeded predetermined levels, and an indication device capable of operating in accordance with the signals from the sensors, whereby the states of clogging of the filters with contaminants in the oil are indicated to enable proper maintenance. The device has two or more filters of different filtration particle sizes arranged in the hydraulic circuits and pressure differentials across the respective filters are measured through sensing the pressures at the inlets and outlets of the filters and, when a pressure differential across one of the filters has exceeded a predetermined limit value, an indicator unit corresponding to this filter operates to indicate the state of clogging. The two or more filters may be arranged in series according to the order of the filtration particle size such that the filter of the greatest filtration particle size is disposed on the upstream end, or may be arranged in two parallel lines shunting through as shunt valve provided in the hydraulic circuit. This arrangement enables an early detection of foreign matters of comparatively large particle sizes which tend to cause breakdown of the hydraulic circuit, as well as grasping of the state of contamination of the working oil, thus preventing occurrence of troubles in the hydraulic circuit.

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un commutateur inertiel pour un système de retenue gonflable auxiliaire. Le commutateur comprend un boîtier divisé en deux chambres par un diaphragme axialement mobile. Dans un premier mode de réalisation, le diaphragme porte un contact électrique sur une de ces faces et une masse inertielle sur l'autre face. Une paire de bornes est disposée dans la trajectoire d'avance du contact électrique, de sorte que, lorsque le commutateur est soumis à une force de décélération axiale, le contact est plaqué contre les bornes. Un contact effectif est établi lorsque la force de décélération égale au dépasse une caractéristique de décélération prédéterminée. La caractéristique de décélération est une fonction non seulement du diaphragme, du contact électrique et de la masse mais également d'un orifice de régulation situé dans un orifice qui fait communiquer les deux chambres entre elles. Les chambres sont conçues de sorte que de l'air est amené de force depuis une des chambres jusque dans l'autre chambre à travers l'orifice de régulation, lors d'une décélération, et cette air produit un effet d'amortissement du movement du diaphragme. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, servant à détecter une décélération, on place la masse inertielle dans la chambre qui contient les contacts. L'autre chambre est de forme concave-convexe mince, ce qui confère au commutateur un profile plat. Le commutateur comporte une base plastique moulée contenant un serpentin de test servant à attirer la masse inertielle pour permettre de tester le commutateur. Un mécanisme de calibrage de commutateur est également inclus.

Abstract: Highly toxic pollutants which are suspected carcinogens can be formed in the incineration of sludge. The filter dusts from the flue gas filtering and the ashes and slags also contain such problem materials, in addition to traces of heavy metals. In order to avoid carryover of these substances into the atmosphere and into the residues used as useful materials (for example aggregates), it is proposed to subject the ashes (22) and filter dusts produced during the incineration (3) and the sludges produced during flue gas scrubbing collectively to a high temperature incineration (43) with subsequent fusing. The problem materials are completely and inertly bound in the slag granules (45) obtained by water cooling (44). The flue gases and ash dusts leaving the high temperature incineration are treated likewise.

Abstract: An input pattern is re-timed in a re-timing circuit (15) by an input clock signal of the same frequency as that of the input pattern, and the re-timed input pattern and a reference pattern generated by a reference pattern generator (21) in synchronization with the input clock signal are compared by a digital error detector (18) to detect a mismatch between them. When the error rate dependent on the thus detected mismatch is larger than a predetermined value, an inhibit control circuit (26) inhibit one input clock pulse which is applied to the reference pattern generator, and when the error rate is smaller than the predetermined value, the inhibit control circuit generates a pattern synchronization establishment signal. When the pattern synchronization establishment signal disappears, a one-shot circuit (32) generates a pulse of a certain width, and if the pattern synchronization establishment signal is not generated again in this while, a T flip-flop (34) is triggered by the trailing edge of the pulse of the certain width. The output of the T flip-flop thus triggered is applied to an inverter (35), which inverts the polarity of the input pulse which is applied to the reference pattern generator and the re-timing circuit.
