Patent number: 4966737Abstract: A method and a device for manufacturing a powder of amorphous ceramic or metallic particles in a high pressure autoclave. The substance in the liquid state is pressed out of a nozzle (7) upwards in vertical direction. An acoustic levitation field acts on the area in front of the nozzle orifice (12) and an inert cooling gas is made to flow turbulently in this area so that the droplets sprayed out of the nozzle are rapidly cooled and get solidified to grains. The powder can be directly machined by pressing and sintering into objects of the desired shape.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 1989Date of Patent: October 30, 1990Assignee: Europaische Atomgemeinschaft (EURATOM)Inventors: Paul Werner, Jean-Pol Hiernaut

Patent number: 4200333Abstract: A mechanism for adjusting the inclination of a backrest of a vehicle seat includes two hinges each at one side of the seat and each including two hinge members respectively secured to the seat component and the backrest component of the seat and mounted on each other for tilting. Each of the hinge members has an internal gear annulus, the gear annuli of the two hinge members having the same diameter but different numbers of teeth. A support element is mounted for rotation in the space bounded by the gear annuli and has a cross-sectionally elliptical peripheral surface. An elastic band embedding a plurality of uniformly distributed pins is supported on the peripheral surface of the support member and meshes with both of the gear annuli at the region surrounding the major axes of the elliptical generatrices of the peripheral surface of the support member.The number of pins which engage via the band both internal gear annuli corresponds to the number of teeth of the annulus which has the smaller number of teeth.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 1978Date of Patent: April 29, 1980Assignee: Keiper Automobiltechnik GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 4145622Abstract: A decoder circuit arrangement with MOS transistors includes a decoder circuit and an output stage. The output stage includes a driver transistor which emits a selection signal, in accordance with a decoder signal emitted from the decoder circuit, and includes a shunt transistor having a controlled path connected between the output of the decoder circuit and the output of the output stage and a control input which is supplied with the selection signal. An additional transistor has a controlled path connected between the output of the output stage and a fixed potential and a control input which is driven by a timing signal which renders the additional transistor conductive, at least during the time in which the selection signal is not present.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 1977Date of Patent: March 20, 1979Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Ruediger Hofmann, Paul-Werner VON Basse

Patent number: 4143905Abstract: A motor-vehicle seat has a seat part and a back part interconnected by means of a hinge having a first hinge element secured to one of these parts and a second hinge element secured to the other part and pivotal on the first element about a horizontal axis. One of these elements is formed as a ring gear with an annular array of inwardly directed teeth and the other element carries a plurality of individually pivoted pawls which can be swung radially outwardly into mesh with these teeth to lock the two elements relative to each other. A cam is provided for radially pivoting these pawls to lock the seat back in any position relative to the seat part. Each pawl has a pivot pin secured in the respective hinge element which is also provided with a plurality of formations adjacent the front ends of these pawls so that even if the pivot pins of the pawls break off the pawls will be supported inside the hinge and the two hinge elements will not be able to pivot relative to each other.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 1977Date of Patent: March 13, 1979Assignee: Keiper Automobiltechnik GmbH & Co KGInventors: Wolfgang Hensel, Paul Werner

Patent number: 4126881Abstract: A semiconductor memory has storage cells composed of MOS selector transistors operated by a drive line and storage capacitors connected to selector transistors. The selector transistors are constructed in accordance with the V-MOS technique. A semiconductor substrate is highly doped with atoms of one conductivity type and carries a buried layer highly doped with atoms of the opposite conductivity type. An epitaxial layer, weakly doped with atoms of the one conductivity type is carried over the buried layer and the semiconductor substrate. A second layer, highly doped with atoms of the opposite conductivity type, is carried over the epitaxial layer above the buried layer. A V-shaped groove divides the second layer into two sub-portions in the region of the storage cells and extends into the buried layer and a conductor path is disposed in the groove.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 1977Date of Patent: November 21, 1978Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Paul-Werner von Basse, Rudiger Hofmann
