Abstract: The strainer is an element of water installations, used for removing impurities in industrial water and non-corrosive liquid supply installations. It has a first end and a second end connected by a slantwise positioned flow chamber with strainer. This flow chamber has a side opening (6) with cover (7) , whereas the interior of the chamber has projections (16) from the opposite walls (12) and (15) . There are flat surfaces with ring gaskets (11) and cylindrical strainer between these projections. On the contrary, the flat surfaces of the chamber diverge from the rear wall (17) towards the edge (18) of the side opening (6) , with respect to the transversal symmetry axis (19) of the chamber, at angles taking values between 1 and 3 degrees. According to the invention, the shape of flow chamber and of the gaskets result in a very compact shape of the whole sediment trap. Its length was minimized and so it needs less place as a part of any pipeline. Furthermore, because of specific positioning of the first and second ends the active surface of the strainer increased and the whirling of flowing liquids decreased. Also some inconveniences of assembly and exchange procedures were eliminated.

Abstract: The transmission brake, at the gearbox in a vehicle transmission train, is controlled by determining the synchronizing from an actual rotary speed of the gear shaft to a nominal rotary speed for the shaft to be synchronized to be set at the shaft. The transmission brake control is through a pure gear synchronizing to give additional take-off drives for ancillary equipments. The moment required for the inertia masses of ancillary equipments linked to the transmission are taken into account for the brake control. The take-off drive is braked through the transmission brake where there is a closed coupling between a loose gear wheel and a gear shaft.

Abstract: The invention relates to the provision of a secure module 108 (such as a SIM card) for incorporation within a portable networked device. The secure module 108 stores a time value which is kept updated while the networked device is online. The time value can then be used to facilitate the provision of time dependent services. When, however, the device is offline, the time value can no longer be kept up to date. By arranging that the SIM 108 keeps a transaction counter 218 that monitors the number of occasions that a given locally stored time value 214 has been used offline, the SIM may block the provision of time dependent services until it receives a suitable update time value 212 from the network.

Abstract: A method of printing an automotive glazing component and an automotive glazing component are described. The method comprises the steps of: printing a first portion, having a width, of the glazing component using an ink spray to provide a first ink density, the ink density being constant across the width of the first portion; printing a second portion, also having a width, of the glazing component using an ink spray; and leaving a third portion, also having a width, of the glazing component, adjacent the second portion, unprinted, such that there is a zero ink density on the surface of the third portion of the glazing component. The step of printing the second portion comprises varying the output of the ink spray to produce a non-constant ink density on the surface of the second portion. By providing a non-constant ink-density on the surface of the glazing, it is possible to provide low-cost high-resolution non-constant optical and thermal transmission regions on automotive glazings.
