Abstract: A device with a pyrotechnic gas generator wherein gas pressurizes a hydraulic circuit via a cartridge-case base, a spring and a pressure piston. The pyrotechnic gas generator comprises a propellant charge, which is located in a combustion chamber and is ignited by an electronic igniting unit. The parts of the device are contained in a housing, which is exchangeably inserted into a wall surrounding the hydraulic circuit.
Abstract: The present utility model pertains to a tubular element for the formation of bags for the vacuum-packing of products, consisting of an inner layer or film (14) having thread-like elements (15), which extend along the length of the tubular element and are intended to be relief on at least on inner surface of the resulting bag and to define among themselves channels (16) for the evacuation, by suction, of air from the bag at the time of using the bag for the vacuum-packing of a product.
Abstract: A device with an extraction fan for use for drawing off ambient air loaded with harmful substances during, e.g., laser surgery or HF surgery, is passed through a filter device. For routine use, easy replacement of the filter should be possible, its loading time is prolonged, and the arrangement of the filter does not compromise the easy handling of the suction line. To achieve this, a transparent sleeve 6, into which a cylindrical folded filter 10 is pulled via a perforation support tube 26, is installed in the suction line, or the filter has a hole 29 provided with a support lining, so that the filter can be directly attached to the suction-side connecting branch 5. The filter 10 is flown through radially, and thus it offers a large filter surface at minimum extension.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a radar device with synthetic aperture based on rotating antennae (ROSAR principle), preferably for helicopters, which operates in the millimeter-wave range and is used mainly as an obstacle radar, wherein the full synthetic aperture length can be reached already within very short distances due to the arrangement of the antennae on a turnstile. Exemplary embodiments, calculations and representations are shown and explained.
Abstract: The center has, on its cylindrical wall, adjacent longitudinal rows of slots (3) which are elongated lengthwise, the slots of one row being staggered--generally by half a pitch--with respect to those of the contiguous rows, so that the longitudinal edges of each slot (3) can be brought closer together in the intermediate zone, allowing a substantially uniform reduction in the transverse section of the center when the cylindrical wall of the center is subjected to centripetal pressure under the action of the turns of the wound yarn; an extension (5) projecting into the slot (3) constitutes a spacing element to limit the amount by which the longitudinal edges are brought closer together in their intermediate zone.
Abstract: A mechanised ballistic target presents a hinged target plate which is knocked down out of sight when hit by a bullet and the shock of the bullet impact on the plate is absorbed pneumatically by a rubber suction cup which the plate strikes; the suction cup has an air leakage passage defined by a capillary tube which sets a time delay before the suction cup releases the target plate to allow a spring to return the target plate to a ready position for the next shot.
Abstract: A digital cross connect device for telephone and data transfer systems includes a plurality of line cards, including line cards connected to a network line and line cards connected to a subscriber line. The network line and the subscriber line carry a signal including a data portion and a status signal portion. Signal separation is provided for separating the data portion from the status signal portion. A coder is provided for coding the status signals to provide status signal bit packets based on received status signals. A status signal time slot interchange is provided for receiving the status signal bit packets and transmitting the status signal bit packets, based on assigned time slots, to another line card. The status signal time slot interchange includes a connection memory having address locations corresponding to time slots, and a dual port memory for receiving the status signal bit packets and writing bit packets based on the address locations of the connection memory.

Abstract: The biological information measuring system of this invention applies rectangular voltage pulses across at least a pair of electrodes attached to the surface of a living body, obtains, through the analysis of a transient current flowing across electrodes, current waveform parameters representing an equation approximating the waveform of the transient current, and calculates equivalent circuit parameters representing an electrical equivalent circuit across the electrodes. Using at least one type of these parameters as biological information, abnormality of the living body is detected.
Abstract: A filter-coefficient conversion system relating to n pieces of digital filters for obtaining n pieces of frequency components in a desired frequency band using filter coefficients a(i, j) (where i=0, - - - m.sub.j, j=1, - - - n) described in a given filter-bank table, comprising a first transfer-function processing device for obtaining transfer functions H(a(i, j)) for the filter coefficients a(i, j) corresponding to each filter (j) in a desired frequency band, a variable-range generating device for generating gradually value-changing ranges RANGE (m), a second transfer-function processing device for obtaining new converted filter coefficients A (i, j) having rounded integer values based on the filter coefficients a (i, j) in the filter-bank table, preparing a filter-bank table thereof, and obtaining transfer functions H(A (i. j)) for the converted filter coefficients A (i, j), and an evaluating device for carrying out evaluation processing with respect to a given degree of tolerance.
