Abstract: A step-up transformer is disposed on a wiring substrate 51 on which an inverter which converts a commercial a.c. power into a high frequency power and a ground fault detection circuit are mounted and within a casing 52. Lead wires 53, 54 which extend from the opposite ends of the secondary winding of the step-up transformer to the outside thereof are mounted upright on the wiring substrate 51. Coils 57, 58 are disposed on air-core bobbins 55, 56, which are threaded by the lead wires 53, 54. Outputs from the coils 57, 58 are fed to a ground fault detection circuit.

Abstract: An electroluminescent device, comprising at least one organic light emitting layer (103) sandwiched between two electrode layers (102, 104), wherein the ratio r of the sheet resistances of the bottom electrode layer (102) and the top electrode layer (104) is 0.3<=r<=3.

Abstract: Compounds of the formula (I) in which A represents N or a cyanomethylene radical, B represents S, O or NH and R1, R2, R3 and x have the meaning given in the description, are highly suitable for dyeing and printing high-molecular-weight materials, in particular automotive cover fabrics.

Abstract: The invention relates to a molding composition based on fluoropolymers which additionally contain from 1 to 50% by weight of at least one polymer containing sulfoxide groups. The polymer containing sulfoxide groups comprises, in particular, polyarylene sulfoxide units of the formula: —(—C6H4—SO—)—.

Abstract: Electrochromic assemblies having a layer structure, characterized in that one layer is an electrically conductive, electrochromic polydioxythiophene and a further layer comprises as ion storage compounds selected from the group consisting of the formulae (I) to (VI) Me1O2  (I), Me22O5  (II), LixMe1O2  (III), LixMe22O5  (IV), LixMe1O2+x/2  (V), LixMe22O5+x/2  (VI), where Me1 and Me2 are each a metal of transition group III, IV and V of the Mendeleev Periodic Table, and x is from 0.001 to 5.

Abstract: A colour photographic silver halide material in which at least one of the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsions is spectrally sensitised with a mixture of at least one seansitising dye of the formula (I) and at least one sensitising dye of the formula (II): in which R1 means an optionally substituted thienyl, pyrroly, indolyl, furamyl or phenyl, in which R5, R6, R7, mean H or R5 and R6 together or R6 and R7 together mean the remaining members of a fused benzo ring and the residual substituent means H and R2, R3, R4, R8, R9, R10 and M have the meaning stated in the description, is distinguished by elevated sensitivity and improved latent image stabilitity.

Abstract: A stitchery stand and frame assembly includes a stand having spaced posts which are connected together at their lower ends by a box assembly into which a tongue is slidably mounted. A frame unit connects the upper end of the posts. The frame unit includes a working frame wherein the side members and spanning members are connected together by being inserted into corner connectors. A fabric is mounted in a peripheral groove of the working frame. A mounting frame is mounted against the working frame.
