Abstract: An installation for the production of sheet-like members from a mixture of plaster and fibrous material comprises, in addition to a device which prepares the raw materials and mixes them in the dry state in a desired ratio, as well as a device, which adds and mixes in an accurately dosed quantity of water, a spreading device, which spreads a mat of material on a forming line. The mat of spread-out material is compacted in a continuously operating belt press. The latter comprises in known manner two endless steel belts, which are guided around two movable press plates of the belt press, which are spaced apart. The mat of spread-out material is compacted between the forming line, on which it rests, and an endless-belt screen, which bears on the upper steel belt of the belt press and thus acquires a side marked by the endless-belt screen. After being cut up by a cutting device, the individual sheets are turned through 180.degree.

Abstract: An electrically operated sanitary mixer tap system comprises a hollow piston (17) for adjusting the temperature, which in particular may be a rotary piston. The hollow piston (17) moves in a chamber (21) of the housing (1) of the mixer tap system, into which the flow paths (22, 23) for cold and hot water open. A particular structure (27) on the outside of the hollow piston (17) cooperates with the openings of the flow paths (23, 27) and thus determines the mixing ratio of the mixed water flowing out of the fitting. Its further path to the outlet of the sanitary fitting leads at least in regions through the interior of the hollow piston (17). Located at this point are (at least) the closing members (30, 34) of an electrically operated valve, which in this way controls the flow of mixed water to the outlet of the fitting. This arrangement of the closing members (30, 34) radially inside the hollow piston (17) facilitates a particularly space-saving construction (FIG. 4).
