Abstract: A procedure serves for the testing of tires by means of a testing system. The testing system includes a memory in which geometric data (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) of the tire (7) are stored, and at least one probe (8) for testing the tire (7) surface. To improve on such a device, the probe or probes (8) are positioned with due consideration for the geometric data (1-6) of the tire (7) for the testing of the tire (7) surface (FIG. 1).

Abstract: In a method for detecting the deformation of objects (1), a sequence of pictures of the object (1) is taken with a measurement method during the deformation of the object (1). From the pictures, phase images are determined. To improve such method, there is formed the difference between the current phase image or the respective current phase image and the phase image of an initial state. This difference or these differences is/are evaluated and/or displayed on a visual display unit and/or stored.

Abstract: A method of testing a component, wherein the component is sensed using a test sensor whose position is tested and an apparatus for the carrying out of the method.

Abstract: A light-emitting diode arrangement having at least one light-emitting diode chip (1), each light-emitting diode chip (1) being assigned at least one optical element (4). In addition, the light-emitting diode arrangement has at least one heat-conducting element (13) which is suitable to carry away the heat generated by the light-emitting diode chip, and at least one cooling apparatus which is suitable to carry heat away from the heat-conducting element. The light-emitting diode arrangement is particularly well suited, for example, to use in motor vehicle headlamps.

Abstract: A process serves to record the deformation of objects (1). In order to facilitate reliable evaluation even in the case of relatively large deformations, during the deformation of the object (1) a sequence or series of images of the object is recorded with a measuring process. The differential between two sequential images is formed. These differentials are integrated (FIG. 1).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an inspection apparatus for tires having a positioning device for the tire to be inspected and a laser inspection device. In accordance with the invention, the inspection device comprises several measuring heads, in particular laser measuring heads in order to reduce the inspection time. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, several observation units and associated lighting sources are integrated in each measuring head.

Abstract: A thermally-sealable multilayer film, for packages which may be resealed after opening, includes an outer layer and a support layer, with a thermally-sealable layer on the side facing the packaged material. A self-adhesive layer made from pressure sensitive adhesive is provided between the support layer and the outer layer. The support layer has weakening lines, which define an opening for the removal of packaged material. For resealing a container, by using the thermally-sealable multilayer film, the user may simply open the defined opening for removal of the contents of the container, by application of an opening force and then reseal the container, by pressing the opened outer layer on to the self-adhesive layer. The above process may be repeated several times, until all the contents of the container are used, whereby the above are protected from possible contamination.

Abstract: A method serves the direct phase-angle measurement of radiation, in particular of light radiation which is reflected from a body. The body is exposed to coherent radiation. The radiation reflected from the body is imaged by an imaging optical system (6) in an image plane in which a sensor is located. A reference radiation generated in accordance with the shearing method is superimposed on the sensor. The phase of the radiation from the body is determined from the measurement signals of the sensor. To improve such a method, the imaging optical system (6) possesses a diaphragm (11) having one or two apertures (12, 13) (FIG. 2a).

Abstract: A nuclear reactor includes a pressure vessel enclosing a plenum, a core in the pressure vessel, a pressure-tight encapsulation in the pressure vessel communicating with the plenum, and control members passing through the encapsulation and having first and second control member segments. The second control member segment has an absorber part to be at least partly inserted into and retracted out of the core for controlling reactivity. The first control member segment has an outer drive part. A control drive is associated with the outer drive part for adjusting the control member along the longitudinal direction thereof. An antieject device for restraining ejection of the control member out of the pressure vessel due to a leak at the encapsulation includes a rod coupling having a disengageable coupling catch interconnecting the first and second control member segments and remaining in engagement during normal control motion of the control member and means for unlocking the coupling catch.
