Abstract: A device for the manual operation of a blind, preferably a vertical blind, by way of a pull cord, which is pulled as a loop with a leading end and a return end by a slat carriage movable in a guide with a slat each arranged on them around their longitudinal axis. The cord is led in a rail which blocks access to a majority of the cord. The rail has channels extending in a longitudinal direction defining passages for the leading end portion and the return end portion of the pull cord. The section rail also defines access openings for providing access by an operator to grip and move the pull cord through the rail. The rest of the rail blocks access to the pull cord.
Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic hardware ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) prototyper permitting the emulation of integrated circuits or ASICs, so that testing of the component to be generated is possible in the later hardware environment.There are known in the art emulation systems comprising a matrix of configurable logic blocks, configurable 10 cells and a configurable wiring. These systems emulate the functional behavior only of the desired circuit.According to the invention, by the addition of programmable delay units into the logic cells, and by the application of programmable coupling fields with delay units to combine the logic modules formed of a multitude of logic cells, it is achieved that the time behavior of an ASIC is considered during emulation, so that a complete emulation is obtained. By purposely setting all inputs to a defined logic state, a fault emulation can be achieved. By the programmable delay units, race problems can be detected.

Abstract: A heat insulation and corrosion protection of the inner vessel wall of a heat exchanger in a synthesis gas cooler. The heat insulation and corrosion protection are arranged above a thermal seal fastened between the vessel wall and the cooling tubes. The insulation and protection includes segments of fiber-filled plates, which are fastened to the vessel wall by means of a substructure and an adhesive or foam material. Support rings with a heat insulation protection means absorb the vertical forces. A metallic corrosion protection layer is applied to the inner vessel wall under the thermal seal. Free breathing of the vessel wall is possible and pressure equalization between the gas space and the annular space is guaranteed due to the heat insulation and corrosion protection according to the present invention.

Abstract: A proximity fuse/time fuse, in which the active optical distance sensor switches over to time delay in the case of disturbances occurring at a short distance before meeting the target, such as detonation flash, fog, explosive charge vapor or fireball. The fuse presets the data for the necessary time delay itself from the data of the preceding distance measurements. One exemplary embodiment is described and shown schematically.

Abstract: A hydraulically actuated locking element with two locking bolts axially displaceable on an axis. A carrying structure is provided with two, slidingly guided hydraulic cylinders, two cylinder bottoms, which act as locking bolts and are designed as force-transmitting cylinder bottom. A centrally fastened, common piston rod of the hydraulic cylinders is provided with a stationary piston at each piston rod end. A centrally rigidly connected piston rod fastening is arranged in the carrying structure and between the two, sliding hydraulic cylinders. The piston rod fastening and the piston rod are provided with holes for guiding hydraulic oil.
Abstract: In a vehicle heating appliance, an overhead state is detected by an overheating temperature sensor by means of a microprocessor. The overheating temperature sensor supplies a signal (UTF) to the microprocessor, and when the signal (UTF) exceeds a threshold value, the microprocessor blocks the transmission of driving signals to a driving transistor (Tr) for the fuel dosing pump. A circuit connected in parallel to the microprocessor with a threshold value switch acts as a redundant switching-off device. The output signal of the threshold value switch is applied to an AND-gate whose output is connected to the base of the driving transistor (Tr) and whose other input receives the driving signals from the microprocessor. When the signal UFT exceeds the threshold value of the threshold switch, the AND-gate blocks all signal transmission from the microprocessor to the driving transistor, so that the fuel dosing pump is stopped.

Abstract: A machine for the wet treatment of fabrics, having one module with two containers, each container having two vessels. Each module contains two pairs of alternately operating hydraulic drive means, comprising a fixed structure attached by a hinge to a cover movable between a closed position and an open position. There is, further, a fixed restraining member, situated above the cover and an air bag, comprised between the cover and the fixed member. The air bag may alternately be in an inflated position, in which it urges the cover to remain in the closed position, and a deflated position, in which it releases the cover towards the open position.

Abstract: A device for aligning a plurality of products, arriving via at least two non-correlated inlet paths, according to a predeterminable pitch along one outlet path. The device includes a plurality of adjacent conveyor belts, here being as many conveyor belts as there are inlet paths. A corresponding sensor is associated for each of the conveyor belts to determine the arrival of a product on the corresponding conveyor belt. A separate actuator with a corresponding position transducer moves each conveyor belt. A control unit is connected to the actuators, the sensors (F1, F2) and the position transducers. The control unit controls the movement of the conveyor belts such that the products on the outlet path are arranged according to the predeterminable pre-set pitch.
Abstract: A connection of rotationally symmetrical components, in which minimal overturning torques and consequently minimal deformations of the supporting components are generated by generating the smallest, theoretically possible lever arm, on which the forces of the connection to be transmitted act. As a result, a nonpositive and positive-locking connection is obtained, in which the bolts no longer represent the dominantly loaded component. The maintenance and testing of the bolts is considerably reduced in all connections. Optimal flux of forces through the components close to the line of force application is achieved in the case of the tensioning of large rolling bearings. The requirements in terms of concentration of the contact pressure of the bearing tensioning in the vicinity of the line of force application are satisfied. In the case of a flange connection, optimal conditions are provided for tightness, besides a more economical manufacture, compared with the prior-art designs.
