Abstract: A process for artificially ageing blocks, in particular concrete blocks, vitrified bricks and natural stones, provides that the blocks are applied to an underlying surface. Essentially freely movable distressing bodies are applied to the surface to be worked of the blocks. The blocks and the distressing bodies are brought into movement in relation to one another by a vibrating motion of the underlying surface in such a way that the distressing bodies act on the surface and the adjoining, exposed edges of the blocks.

Abstract: Disclosed is a passenger seat, especially an airline passenger seat, comprising seat components such as a seat part, a backrest, and an armrest (3), at least one of which is movably disposed relative to the other seat components to adjust the position, and a partition (9, 11) that can be transferred between an operational position in which the same extends in a lateral shielding area of the seat and a non-operational position in which the same unblocks the shielding area. The partition is composed of several wall parts (9, 11) which extend in the shielding area in the operational position and interact via a guiding device (43, 45) such that the movement of one wall part (9) during the transfer between the non-operational and the operational position entrains another wall part (11).

Abstract: A level meter, employing the radar principle for measuring the fill level of a medium in a container, includes a signal transmitter serving to transmit an electromagnetic signal, an electric conductor system for conducting the electromagnetic signal into the container and returning reflected components of the electromagnetic signal from the container, and a signal receiver serving to receive the reflected components of the electromagnetic signal. An electric conductor system is provided at its upper end with a suspension by which it is attached to a device on the container. A tensile-load testing device is placed between the suspension and at least a part of the electric conductor system, featuring a break point for the electromagnetic signal, with the distance between the break point and the signal transmitter or the signal receiver varying as a function of the tensile load bearing on the conductor system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mixing and/or evaporation device for an exhaust system, an internal combustion engine, having a tubular body on whose one axial end are arranged several blades adjacent to one another in the circumferential direction, protruding radially inward and leaving free a central passage such that the blades are set at an angle to the axial direction. For inexpensive manufacturing, the tubular body may be manufactured from a single sheet metal body by shaping together with the blades.

Abstract: For controlling a multi-stage load with pulsewidth modulation (PWM), the individual stages have normally separately applied thereto load currents which are clocked in a phase-shifted mode so as to avoid load peaks. An output stage for PWM control of a load stage with a delay circuit which, in addition to the load current modulated by a PWM input signal, supplies a PWM output signal that is delayed by a predetermined fraction of the period duration relative to the PWM input signal. The output stage can especially be realized by integrating the delay circuit together with the actual power semiconductor switch and an associated monitoring and control circuit in a single component. By cascading such output stages, a controller for phase-shifted PWM control of multi-stage loads, which is independent of a precise time base, can be realized in a simple manner.

Abstract: A motor vehicle trim assembly has a holding body with a receiving groove. The holding body can be fixed in a material-uniting manner to a motor vehicle rear window in an upper window edge region facing the vehicle interior or on a trim part in an upper trim part edge region facing the vehicle interior by means of an adhesion promoter layer. A trim part of the trim assembly is inserted with a rear window-side rim region or the motor vehicle rear window is inserted with a trim-side rim region into the receiving groove. A trim assembly of this type and a motor vehicle assembly also comprising the rear window avoids the visual impression of the visible side of the motor vehicle being limited by visible fastening elements for the trim part.
