Abstract: A ball cock has a housing that includes at least two housing parts. Each part has a flow-through channel as a flow-through path. The ball cock also includes a ball-shaped shut-off element having a passage bore as a flow path for optionally connecting the flow-through paths of the housing parts. This shut-off element is accommodated within the housing between ring-shaped seals, and can be switched by means of a switching shaft between an open position in which the flow path is released and a closed position that shuts off the flow path. At least one of the seals that accommodate the shut-off element between them is mounted in one of the housing parts, with limited axial mobility, and can be pressed against the shut-off element with a sealing surface by means of a device, whereby the seal can be switched between an axial contact pressure position and a stress-relief position.

Abstract: It is proposed in connection with a method for the interferometric radar measurement in conjunction with a helicopter operating in accordance with the ROSAR principle (Heli-Radar) that two coherent receiving antennas with receiving channels are associated with a transmitter of the ROSAR-system mounted on the revolving rotary cross; and that the difference (?R) between the two distances (R+?R, R) from the measured impact point P are calculated, in the manner known per se, based on the wavelength ? of the emitted radar signal and the measured phase difference of the receiving echo of the two coherent receive channels.

Abstract: A measuring head for determining particle size in transparent media, comprising a measuring head body which has an opening for an optical measuring point with two measuring windows, consisting of an illuminating device and a light receiving device which is connected to an opto-electronic converter device. A rinsing device is used to clean the optical measuring point. The windows can be reliably prevented from becoming fouled or wetted by particles contained in the particle flow, enabling optical permeability of the measuring point and avoiding false measuring values. The rinsing device has a rinsing medium source, a channel extending to the opening inside the measuring head body for delivery of a rinsing medium and at least one discharge opening near the opening, which extends perpendicularly to and directly in front of the measuring windows. At least one defined rinsing jet is spread over the surfaces of the measuring windows.

Abstract: In a card connector to be connected to a card, a defining member defines an inserting region for receiving the card inserted in an inserting direction. The card connector includes an eject mechanism for ejecting the card from the inserting region in an ejecting direction opposite to the inserting direction. A plurality of ejecting members are adapted to be engaged with the card in the inserting region in the inserting and the ejecting directions and movable with respect to the defining member independently of one another. A linking mechanism selectively links the ejecting members to each other in response to insertion of the card in the inserting region.
