Abstract: The invention relates to a steel works installation with a double-furnace plant and to a process for operating this installation. The process is intended for melting steel in an energy-saving manner without pollution of the environment. For this purpose, it is characterised by the following steps: one of the two furnaces is supplied with electric power for melting the charge present therein and the other is completely separated from the mains; the furnace which has been taken off from the power mains and tapped is charged with charge material; the furnace vessel is then sealed by a cover; subsequently the gas present in the vessel space is extracted above the column of charge; the flue gas from the furnace in electric operation is extracted from the furnace separated from the power mains via a connecting line provided between the two furnaces, the flue gas connection of the other furnace to the gas purification being broken during the extraction of the flue gas from the furnace separated from the power mains; and at the same time added air is taken up in the region of the cover of the furnace which is in electric operation. This double-furnace installation is designed according to the invention in a special manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed are abrasive wiping articles, e.g., nonwoven, preferably paper towels, which comprise an absorbant nonwoven substrate having printed thereon a cured scrubbing bead mixture which comprises a) certain carboxylated, ionically-charged polymeric abrasive particles, b) a carboxyl group-containing polymeric adhesive material, and c) an amino-epichlorohydrin, e.g., Kymene TM , cross-linking agent. The polymeric abrasive particles range in size from about 20 to 400 microns and have a Knoop hardness of from about 4 to 25. The polymeric adhesive material, upon curing, has a Knoop hardness of from about 0.5 to 17. Preferred wiping articles of the foregoing type have a pattern of the scrubbing bead mixture printed onto from about 20% to 70% of the surface area of a paper substrate with the abrasive particles affixed to the substrate in such a manner that their exposed portion extends for a distance of from about 40 to 300 microns above the surface of the paper substrate. Wiping articles of this type are especially useful for removing soil and stain from hard surfaces with the polymeric scrubbing particles thereon being especially resistant to removal during use. Also disclosed is a process for preparing abrasive wiping articles as hereinbefore described. Such a process involves printing a pattern of the scrubbing bead mixture onto the paper substrate, drying the printed substrate and then curing the solid components of the scrubbing bead mixture to affix the abrasive scrubbing particles to the substrate. Curing of the particular scrubbing bead mixture employed can take place at room temperature.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un appareil attirant la foudre, permettant de protéger des structures secondaires en-deçà de la zone de protection de l'appareil, ce dernier étant électriquement relié à la masse de terre et à la nappe souterraine présentant un potentiel de référence. L'appareil comprend une tige conductrice centrale, un ou plusieurs paratonnerres cylindriques coaxiaux à hauteurs décroissantes, le paratonnerre cylindrique le plus bas se trouvant à l'extérieur, et une base conductrice sur laquelle tous les paratonnerres de surface sont rigidement montés, et qui les relie à la tige de mise à la terre commune. Cette tige de mise à la terre permet de connecter électriquement l'appareil avec le potentiel de référence de terre. Des éléments d'écartement isolants concentriques, situés à des intervalles plus ou moins réguliers le long de l'axe, séparent et isolent les paratonnerres de surface les uns par rapport aux autres, cette séparation étant telle que l'amorçage d'arc entre les paratonnerres adjacents est effectivement supprimé. Un couvercle isolant, destiné à la partie inférieure du paratonnerre cylindrique extérieur, fournit une protection dans la mesure où il empêche le contact direct avec des surfaces porteuses de courant lorsque la foudre heurte l'appareil. Un anneau cnducteur séparément mis à la terre et situé à la base de la tour de façon à s'étendre généralement de quelques pouces au-dessus de la surface, empêche que les courants de la foudre interceptée ne quittent la région adjacente, latéralement inférieure à l'appareil, au-delà du périmètre de l'anneau, ce qui évite l'apparition de potentiels échelonnés dans la région au-delà de l'anneau de base. Les paratonnerres cylindriques extérieurs fournissent un blindage à ronflement électromagnétiques à brouillages radio-électriques par rapport aux courants interceptés passant à travers les paratonnerres intérieurs. Selon un aspect de cette invention, un ou plusieurs paratonnerres cylindriques peuvent être individuellement reliés au potentiel de référence de terre.

Abstract: In a small radio controlled watch (12) of compact design, which has a magnetic antenna (aerial) (11) integrated into the movement section, the main printed circuit board (26) for interconnecting the essential components of the autonomous clock circuit, the receiver (42) and the processor (41) for the internal function coordination including a voltage transformer which is possibly present for driving an LCD is countersunk so deep into a hole (28) in the central region of the disc-shaped antenna coiled core (13) that the plane of the conductor tracks (38) on the one side of the printed circuit board (26) is as far as possible aligned with the central plane (37) of the core (13) and with the axis (18) of the antenna coil (14) supported on an eccentric bulge of the core (13). Moreover, active components, in particular when they operate by means of clocked currents, such as, in particular, the processor (41) and the receiver (42), are arranged on this main printed circuit board (26) at as great a distance as possible from the coil (14) and distributed as far as possible opposite one another on both sides of the printed circuit board (26), with the result that the centre of the interfering alternating fields emanating from the pulsed currents once again is also situated in this regard in the central plane (37) of the core (13). These positionings produce a far reaching vectorial compensation of magnetic alternating field components which penetrate the cross-section of the coil (14) and result from the circuit currents, with the result that the received signal with the time information to be decoded is not covered by locally produced disturbance fields (interference fields, noise fields). It is possible to arrange away from the central plane (37) an additional printed circuit board or circuit components which operate only sporadically - during the pauses in the receiving operation -, such as, for example, an evaluation circuit for externally actuable momentary-contact switches and, in particular, the driver circuit for a stepping motor (stepper motor, pulse motor) for driving the gearing. The latter plunges into a hat-shaped holder which is made from insulating material, projects coaxially into the hole (28) in the core (13), and supports the main printed circuit board (26) below its base (36). <IMAGE>
