Abstract: An intake manifold with an integrated exhaust gas recirculation system (16, 17a, 17b) which is located primarily within a plenum (12) of the intake manifold and is spaced at a distance (a) from the walls (20) of the intake manifold. This limits the heat transfer to the housing of the intake manifold, so that the housing may be manufactured, for example, of synthetic resin material. Further relief of the synthetic resin housing, particularly of the intake channels (14), from thermal stress is provided in that the intake air within the plenum cools the exhaust gas in the exhaust lines (17a, b), so that the intake-air/exhaust-gas mixture within the intake channels (14) does not exceed the critical temperature for the. synthetic resin walls (20) of the channels even if the exhaust gas recirculation rates are high.

Abstract: The invention related to a "flow control element" with suction spout for carbonated beverage cans. The fluid remains under pressure while access is possible when suction is applied to the spout. The spout is attached to a housing enclosure that holds a spring, a centrally perforated membrane, a valve stem and a valve. This housing enclosure extends into the inside of the container, which extended part functions as a guide for the valve stem and that incorporates the valve seat. The valve stem is attached to the perforated membrane on one side and to the valve on the other side. When suction is applied the membrane moves the valve and opens a flow path, thereby allowing fluid to flow through the valve stem and the perforated membrane to the mouth. When the suction stops, a spring closes the valve against the gas pressure in the can or container.

Abstract: A method and arrangement for improving electrical contact between a printed circuit board and an electrical component, wherein the electrical components have one or more spring contacts to provide electrical connection to one or more pads on the printed circuit board. The contacting point between a spring contact may be oxidized due to humidity, condensation water, chlorides or other environment agents. The oxidation at the contact point degrades the electrical connection and, eventually, causes a total loss in electrical contact. A vibration mechanism is used to cause the electrical components to move relative to the printed circuit board and the spring contacts to rub against the pads. The vibrating motion on the spring contacts cleans the contact points of undesirable materials at the contact points. <IMAGE>

The ratio between the height of the melt in a furnace and the heigh of the area for sampling the melt ranges from 1.4 to 50.0. The ratio between the surface area of the melt in the furnace and the surface area of a projection of the area for sampling the melt on a horizontal plane ranges from 10 to 6000. The application of said conditions and operation modes makes it possible to significantly reduce the breakage rate of fibres during drawing and to increase the output.

Abstract: A probe instrument using room temperature magnetic sensor(s) for noninasively measuring variations in magnetic susceptibilities with sufficient resolution to monitor paramagnetic materials in a human body, such as iron in liver. Tissue response to an alternating current field applied by an applied field coil is detected. Applied field coil dimensions are chosen for maximum response from the liver while minimizing effects from overlying abdominal tissue and at the same time not unduly increasing instrument sensitivity to the lung. To overcome variations in sensor output due to fluctuations in the applied field, change in ambient temperature and mechanical relaxation of the instrument, sensor sample distance is modulated. Detector assembly is oscillated while the patient remains stationary. An improved water-bag technique is employed to eliminate background tissue response. The detector assembly forms part of a probe instrument for noninvasively detecting the paramagnetic concentration of a patient.
