Abstract: Novel polyester molding compositions are disclosed which exhibit unexpected water absorption properties. The compositions of the invention include a polyester base resin (which preferably is a linear poly(alkylene) terephthalate, e.g., poly(butylene) terephthalate, or a copolyester elastomer having long chain ester units derived from corresponding long chain glycols of molecular weight 600-6000 and a carbon to oxygen ratio of greater than 2.5), and a copolyester elastomer having a multiplicity of long and short chain ester units, wherein the long chain ester units are derived from corresponding long chain glycols of molecular height 400-3500 and a carbon to oxygen ratio of between about 2.0 to 2.4. Since the polyester molding compositions of this invention exhibit less water absorption, they may satisfactorily be employed to form parts where low swelling is a desireable physical attribute (e.g. as movable parts of a component having critical spatial tolerances).

Abstract: A multicomputer system comprises individual computers (R1 to R3) characterized by reliable signal quality, which communicate through two separate channels. If one channel fails, data transmission continues in single-channel operation through the remaining channel, and errors in the data are detected by higher redundancy. The individual computers (R1, R2) are associated with time monitors (Z1, Z2) which can be adjusted when an error is detected and switch off the individual computers after a maximum permissible time-interval for single channel operation. These time monitors can be reset individually when the associated computer recognizes that it can exchange data with any of the other computers in the multicomputer system through both channels. To this end, it permits the emission of test data (P2.1, P2.2) to the computers of the computer system and evaluates the acknowledgement messages (Q2.1, Q.2.2) from the latter. When its time monitor (z1) is reset, the computer (R1) resumes communication with the other computers, with the exception of the computer (R2) in which the error has been detected, in the two-channel operating mode for data transmission in which errors are not detected with high redundancy.

Abstract: Die Temperaturmeßschaltung enthält mehrere Temperatursensoren, von denen jeder durch einen temperaturabhängigen Meßwiderstand mit zwei Stromanschlußklemmen und mit zwei jeweils zwischen einer zugeordneten Stromanschlußklemme und dem temperaturabhängigen Meßwiderstand angeordneten Spannungsabgriffklemmen gebildet ist. Die Temperatursensoren sind über die Stromanschlußklemmen in Reihe geschaltet, und die Reihenschaltung ist über zwei Stromleiter mit einer Auswerteschaltung verbunden, die einen konstanten Strom durch die in Reihe geschalteten Meßwiderstände schickt. Zur Messung der von dem konstanten Strom verursachten Spannungsabfälle an den einzelnen Meßwiderständen sind die Spannungsabgriffklemmen jedes Temperatursensors durch Spannungsleiter mit der Auswerteschaltung verbunden. Dabei sind die beiden Spannungsabgriffklemmen von zwei in der Reihenschaltung aufeinanderfolgenden Temperatursensoren, die zwei miteinander verbundenen Stromanschlußklemmen zugeordnet sind, jeweils über einen Widerstand mit einem gemeinsamen Spannungsleiter verbunden. Dadurch ergibt sich eine erhebliche Einsparung an Verbindungsleitern im Vergleich zu einer Temperaturmeßschaltung mit der gleichen Anzahl von Temperatursensoren, von denen jeder durch zwei Stromleiter und zwei Spannungsleiter mit der Auswerteschaltung verbunden ist.

Abstract: In a sieve drum device with, arranged on the front end, a fan (6) for creating the suction draught through the sieve drum surface, a dynamic pressure cover (13) is usually arranged in front of the sieve drum jacket (5). This dynamic pressure cover creates in the dynamic pressure space in front of the dynamic pressure cover (13) the dynamic pressure necessary for the uniform treatment of the material web (10). In order to be able optimally to treat material webs (10, 10') of different width on the sieve drum (5), the dynamic pressure cover (13) is either completely removable in the region of the narrower material width (10') or provided with an opening mechanism (22-26), or the dynamic pressure cover (13) is assigned an additional parallel sieve cover (14) which is displaceable towards the dynamic pressure cover. The holes (17, 20, 21) of the dynamic pressure cover (13) and sieve cover (14) are arranged in relation to one another in such a manner that, on displacement by approximately one hole spacing, the majority of the holes of the dynamic pressure cover can be closed by the webs of the holes of the sieve cover, in order to be able to dry the material in the remaining part.

Abstract: Reduced calorie potato chips, and other low moisture fat-containing foods having less waxiness and improved flavor display are dislosed. These benefits are typically obtained by applying to the surface of the potato chip, or other food, fat compositions having certain thixotropic areas that correlate to reduced waxiness impressions. These fat compositions comprise a nondigestible fat component, and optionally a digestible triglyceride fat or oil. The nondigestible fat component comprises a nondigestible oil and preferably low levels of certain solid polyol fatty acid polyesters having ester groups comprising combinations of unsaturated (C12 or higher) and/or short chain (C2-C12) saturated fatty acid radicals and long chain (C20 or higher) saturated fatty acid radicals. The solid polyol polyesters bind the liquid oils and thus control or prevent passive oil loss, even at relatively low levels.
