Abstract: A hydraulic pressure amplifier with a housing which has an end face at a low pressure side and an end face at a high pressure side and a circumferential wall between the two end faces, wherein an outlet valve is arranged adjacent the end face on the high pressure side, and an outlet duct for the hydraulic liquid which is under high pressure. In a pressure amplifier of the above-described type, the outlet duct opens into the circumferential wall or extends through a connection plug which is screwed into the end face on the high pressure side and closes off an assembly duct which receives the outlet valve.

Abstract: A fluid line with a pipe provided with a sleeve of a woven or braided fabric, wherein the pipe, in turn, includes at least one conductor.

In accordance with another embodiment, the at least one conductor forms the sleeve.

Abstract: An insert for insertion into a pressurized container for liquids has a component chamber for receiving an active substance and a pressure chamber for introducing the active substance into the liquid when opening the container for liquids. The pressure chamber has at least one small outer bore. The insert is freely movable in the container for liquids but has such a stable floating position on a surface of the liquid within the container for the liquids that the outer bore always points upwardly and optimizes a pressure compensation with the environment. After opening the container for liquids, the resulting relative overpressure in the pressure chamber in relation to the released pressure in the container for liquids effects an opening of the component chamber.

Abstract: In a lock of a door or a window with a basic lock and at least an auxiliary locking device and at least a first actuation arrangement for locking the lock, a second actuation arrangement separate from the first actuation arrangement is provided for unlocking the lock.

Abstract: In a device for operating locks (16) on doors or hatches of vehicles, a fixed support (10) is a arranged on the door. A moving unit (20) is mounted (11, 12), such as to pivot on the support (10), belonging to which is at least one handle (21). Spring loading (25, 26) ensures the unoperated moving unit (20) is held in a flat rest position on the support (10). On operating the handle, the moving unit (20) must be pivoted against said spring loading, whereby the lock (16) is operated. A damping unit (30) ensures that the returning moving unit (20) pivoting action is decelerated. A reliable, economical damping unit (30) is obtained, whereby an elastic body (31) is arranged in at least one position on the moving unit (20) which extends outwards with a projection (32). On the return movement (39) into the rest position the extending projection (32) is deformed against a fixed counter-surface (40), whereupon the movement energy is largely dissipated.

Abstract: The method and the device serve for the blow moulding of containers (2). Preforms (1) of a thermoplastic material are heated in the region of a heating path (24) and then transferred to a blowing device (25). The blowing device (25) is provided with at least one blowing station (3) for moulding the preforms (1) into the containers. The preforms (1) are retained along at least a section of the transport path thereof by a support element (46) which is at least partly loosely introduced into a mouth section (21) of the preform (1) and tightened in the mouth section (21) after the introduction thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cold-rolling strips consisting of, inter alia, special steels and/or nonferrous metals, in a multi-stand tandem rolling mill. The first stand(s) carry out comparatively high reductions and the last stand(s) determine the surface quality of the strip, with a relatively low reduction. The aim of the invention is to improve the capacity of the tandem rolling mill in terms of thickness reduction and in terms of the surface quality of the rolled strips. To this end, an emulsion is used as a coolant and lubricant for the first passages of the strip through the tandem rolling mill with relatively high reduction. The adhesive coolant and lubricant film is then squeezed off the strip following removal from the roll gap of the last emulsion-operated stand. Rolling oil is used as a lubricant for especially the last passage(s) through the tandem rolling mill with relatively low reduction. The invention also relates to an installation for carrying out the inventive method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for hot-dip coating a metal strand (1), especially a steel strip, according to which the metal strand (1) is vertically guided through a container (3) accommodating the molten coating metal (2) and through a guide channel (4) disposed upstream thereof. An electromagnetic field is generated in the area of the guide channel (4) by means of at least two inductors (5) disposed at both sides of the metal strand (1) to retain the coating material (2) in the container (3). In order to stabilize the metal strand (1) in a center position in the guide channel (4), an electromagnetic field, superimposing the electromagnetic field of the inductors (5), is generated by means of at least two additional coils (6) disposed at both sides of the metal strand (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a vessel (1) for the metallurgical treatment of pig iron, steel melts and similar, in particular a converter vessel, mounted on a support ring (3), arranged at a separation by means of pivot pins, whereby the vessel (1) rests on the top flange (3a) of the support ring (3) by means of claws (6) on the vessel wall (1b) and a support (4) is detachably embodied with additional fixing elements on the top flange (3a) of the support ring (3). According to the invention, the disadvantage of having to work in hot, restricted regions which are difficult for the personnel to access can be avoided, whereby the support on the top flange (3a) of the support ring (3) comprises opposing vessel brackets (7) and support ring brackets (8) which can be tensioned together in a closing direction (10) by means of a hinged closure (9) until a secure closed position is achieved and which may be easily opened in the opposing operating direction (12).

Abstract: The device for the disposal of sanitary waste consists of a fixed drum-type container (20) with a horizontal central axis (MA) and with inlet pipes for dosed wash liquid (WF), for sanitary liquid (HF) and for dosed chemicals (CH),whereby a discharge duct (65) for the carrying-off of the comminuted sanitary waste interspersed with wash liquid from the bottom area of the container (20) is provided in the bottom area of the container (20), in the inner space (27) of which a knife disk (30) which can be rotatably driven is placed in the area of one of its both vertical front walls (21; 22) with shearing knives (31) turned to the inner space (27) of the container (20), whereby an ascendingly guided compressor screw (60) follows the discharge duct (65), compressor screw which forms with a shear sieve sheet (70) a functional unit for separating the comminuted sanitary waste containing solid components from the wash liquid (WF) with the constituents of the sanitary waste which are dissolved therein and the wash liqui

Abstract: The invention relates to a convertible vehicle (1) comprising a roof (2) provided with a flexible roof covering (4) in at least certain areas, said roof covering being gripped from below by one or several bows (6, 7) which are arranged in a transversal manner in relation to the direction of travel (F). At least one bow (6;7) is made of several pieces and comprises a central area (9) which is connected to lateral fittings (10) and is configured in such a manner that securing means are provided (16) in order to connect the central part (9) and the fittings (10). When the roof is closed, said securing means are arranged in the region of the respective bow (6, 7) and are at least approximately parallel to the extension plane (17;18) of the external roof covering (4).

Abstract: A wide mouth plastic barrel with a removable lid and a clamping ring closure is manufactured by extruding a plastic tube into a blow mold and by producing a closed preform. The preform is finish-blown to a barrel body, wherein the blowing air for finish-blowing a barrel body with a closed lid is introduced through a blow nozzle inserted into an intermediate ring of the barrel body and the blowing air for finish-blowing a barrel body with a bung lid is introduced through a bung hole by a blow nozzle and optionally through a blow nozzle in the intermediate ring. After removal from the blow mold, the lid is separated from the barrel body by cutting out the intermediate ring. A seal is inserted into the barrel lid, and the barrel lid is fastened by the clamping ring on a projection of the basic barrel member.
