Abstract: A burner suitable for heating a furnace chamber of an industrial furnace which is equipped with a recuperative preheater for combustion air has a combustion chamber at one end and a feed-through cap at the other end which is accessible outside of a furnace in which the burner is installed. The tubular recuperative preheater is of the coaxial countercurrent flow configuration extending between the combustion chamber and an annular outflow collector cap. A coaxial fuel pipe is centered in the burner extending to the combustion chamber. Overheating of the burner cap is prevented by means of a spacer sleeve of small heat conductivity interposed between the preheater and the burner cap. This permits the valves to be seated in the burner cap without risk of thermal damage. For protection of personnel against contact with hot surfaces, a perforated metal shield is provided between the burner cap and the outflow cap of the recuperator, essentially covering all the portions of the burner outside a furnace wall.

Abstract: With this apparatus it is possible to activate a catching apparatus (3, 23) or a car brake (2, 22) which is mounted on the lift car (1, 21) if excess speed is detected in an upward or downward direction of travel or if there is uncontrolled movement of the lift car (1, 21). Activation is via a cage (6, 26) of connecting rods, by means of upper or lower connecting rods (5, 25; 7, 27) the cage (6, 26) of connecting rods transmitting a relative movement which is executed by a mechanical or electromagnetic monitoring device from the monitoring device to the connecting rods (5, 25; 7, 27). An upper and lower sliding connection (8, 28; 7, 27) serves as a connection between the cage (6, 26) of connecting rods and the upper and lower connecting rods (5, 25; 7, 27), transmits tensile forces and activates the catching apparatus (3) or the car brake (2) depending on whether the relative movement is upwards or downwards. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Sealing webs (14) serve, in particular, for forming (flat) roof coverings. The sealing webs (14) predominantly consist of inflammable bitumen. It is thus necessary to design the sealing web (14) such that it does not burn or, if it goes on fire, the latter is extinguished within a short period of time. The sealing web (14) according to the invention has at least one perforated or grid-type fireproof layer (18). By virtue of this, in the event of a fire, the inflammable bitumen can flow downwards, the flames being held back at the fireproof layer (18). In this arrangement, the fire is extinguished automatically after the entire amount of bitumen has flowed down through the perforated or grid-like fireproof layer (18). <IMAGE>
