Abstract: In a tire air pressure monitoring device and/or in a method for performing tire air pressure monitoring by a device, each monitored pneumatic tire is provided with a wheel module, which generates radiotelegrams provided with air pressure data and sends them telemetrically to a control device in the vehicle. In addition, by an acceleration sensor serving as selection signal, a proportionate wheel position signal is generated in the wheel module and entered and stored in a data memory device on the wheel module. The control device generates a selecting demand signal that queries the presence or absence of the selection signal, which requires only the wheel modules that have or do not have the storage selection signal to send a radiotelegram within a stipulated time window or time frame. Thereupon, within the stipulated time window or time frame, only the radiotelegrams originating from the selected wheel module or the selected wheel modules are sent.

Abstract: A tire pressure display device for a vehicle having several wheels provides each monitored tire with an electronic module including, for example, an integrated pressure sensor with measuring and control electronics which are coupled to a high-frequency transmitter/receiver. Away from the wheels, there is at least another high-frequency transmitter/receiver that is coupled to a microprocessor that exchanges high-frequency radiograms with each wheel's electronic module in an interrogation-response mode. In addition, a remote control locking arrangement activates a locking system on the vehicle. The triggering of a control command effectuated on the remote control locking arrangement also activates the microprocessor, which then initializes the electronic module for each monitored tire.

Abstract: With a tire pressure display device for a vehicle having several wheels, each monitored tire is provided with an electronic module (integrated pressure sensor with measuring and control electronics, said sensor being coupled to a high-frequency transmitter/receiver means). Away from the wheels, there is at least another high-frequency transmitter/receiver means coupled to a microprocessor (master means), that can exchange high-frequency radiograms with each module means in the interrogation-response mode. In addition, a remote control locking means (1) is present for activating a locking system on the vehicle. The triggering of a control command effectuated on the remote control locking means (1) for activating the locking system also activates the master means which then initializes the module means.

Abstract: A valve which includes signal generating means generate a signal representing a pressure drop within a vehicle tire. The valve includes an absolute pressure sensor coupled to measure the pressure within the tire. A microprocessor is provided which upon activation following operation of the valve stores a value of the electric pressure signal from the pressure sensor in a memory. During operation of the vehicle, the stored reference electric pressure signal is compared with periodic measurements of pressure within the tire. The transmitter is activated at periodic intervals, whenever a given ratio between the compared values and a threshold value exceeds an upper or lower limit. The system is activated by a acceleration sensor which can detect when the vehicle is moving, thus avoiding power consumption stopped.

Abstract: An extra-corporal blood pump comprises a support means equipped with a pumping means and a driving means.

Abstract: A valve cap is screwed onto a pneumatic tire and generates an indication whether a prefilled tire pressure is still existent or not. For this purpose a valve cap (1) comprises a deflectable diaphragm (30) in an inner housing separating a pressure chamber from a reference pressure chamber. The reference pressure chamber registers the prefilled tire pressure. The diaphragm (30) is deflected toward the closed housing end when the actual existent tire pressure drops in comparison with the registered tire pressure. Onto the diaphragm (30) a permanent magnet (40) is placed, which can be in a first position (normal position of the diaphragm) or in a second position adjacent to the housing end. The check of the magnet position and the generation of an indication signal indicative of the actual tire pressure status will be executed by a hand device, which must be brought into a defined position with respect to the valve cap.

Abstract: A valve cap adapted to be screwed onto the tire valve of a pneumatic tire generates a wireless transmissible pressure drop indication signal. The valve cap comprises a valve cap housing comprising a pressure chamber and a reference chamber. The non-blockable pressure chamber is admittable with the tire pressure to be controlled. The reference chamber is admitted with a desired pressure whenever the valve cap is screwed onto the tire valve. A signal generating means including transmitter means, power supply means and switching means is provided within said valve cap housing. The switching means comprises a conductor section fixedly arranged within the pressure chamber in a short distance to a rest position of a deflectable diaphragm. Any tire pressure drop will converge the diaphragm into the pressure chamber and will complete an electrical circuit whereupon a transmitter circuitry is supplied with voltage/current, and the transmitter means generates a pressure drop indicating signal of limited duration.

Abstract: A tire valve comprises means for generating a wireless transmittable pressure drop indicating signal. The valve comprises a valve foot attachable to a tire rim and a valve shaft extending from said valve foot. A signal generating means is mounted on said valve foot at a valve foot side remote from said valve shaft. Said signal generating means comprises a reference pressure chamber which is admittable with a desired pressure. A diaphragm defines said reference pressure chamber and is admittable with the tire pressure to be controlled. Further, said signal generating means includes a transmitter means, a power supply means and switching means which is regularly hold in an opened position, but which is closed with a diaphragm deflection, whereupon the transmitter means is activated. The transmitter circuit comprises a sequence control which terminates a signal transmission after a short duration thereof and resets the transmitter means in a state to become activated again.

Abstract: The barrel of an automatic hand weapon is held stationary in a weapon housing in which an axially symmetrical bore is formed perpendicularly to the barrel axis, a cylinder-shaped cartridge chamber housing being disposed within said bore and being adapted to be successively moved by positive intermittent rotary movement in the same direction about its axis of rotation into a firing position and a loading position. In order to permit improved matching with the ammunition, especially with an uncased cartridge and to permit, if necessary, the provision of an obturator at the projectile-side end of the cartridge chamber and optionally to increase the firing cadence, two cartridge chambers are formed in the cylinder-shaped cartridge chamber housing, said cartridge chambers being mutually disposed centrosymmetrically relative to the roational axis of the cartridge chamber housing.

Abstract: A valve cap adapted to be screwed onto the valve of a pneumatic tire gives a pressure drop indication. To this end the valve cap comprises a deflectable diaphragm which separates the housing interior into a first chamber adjacent a transparent section of the closed housing end portion and a second chamber which is in communication with the tire interior through a port formed in a transverse housing wall and through the open tire valve. When the valve cap has been tightly screwed onto the tire valve and the tire valve has been opened, the desired tire pressure will be built up in both chambers. Upon closing of the second chamber a reference pressure corresponding to the desired tire pressure will prevail therein. Any reduction of the tire pressure relative to the reference pressure will cause the diaphragm to converge towards the transparent housing portion, thus serving as an indication.

Abstract: The disclosure describes a valve cap which indicates the pressure within a pneumatic tire.

Abstract: An automatic switching-off arrangement for the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle comprises a sensor which senses the neutral position of the gear control lever or the idle running condition of the engine or the standstill condition of the vehicle. When the sensor detects such a condition a delay switch is energized which activates a switch-off means after a predetermined period so that the current supply to the ignition coil is interrupted or a half-compression device is operated and the engine is stopped. Thereby, fuel can be saved and pollution of the atmosphere can be reduced.
