Abstract: To provide for optical indication of output values relating to the operating conditions, or other parameters for display on the dashboard of a display panel, for example on automotive vehicles, a display panel (10) has a plurality of indicating blocks (15a . . . 15k) distributed thereover. A logic circuit, for example provided by a micro-processor (12) supplies data over data busses (21, 41) to the respective indicating blocks, which can be connected in series (FIGS. 2, 4) or in parallel (FIGS. 5-7). The logic circuit is connected through suitable connecting lines (13) with sensor inputs, providing ambiant, or operation or operating data. The logic circuit, additionally, generates data of its own, for example time outputs.

Abstract: To prevent erroneous operation of a wheel anti-skid or anti-brake lock system which is arranged to compensate for yaw of the vehicle if the wheels at the respective sides of the vehicle operate on portions of a road surface of widely different roughness, e.g. one side of the vehicle on a dry road track and the other side on ice or snow, upon movement of the vehicle through a curve during which a brake is applied, so that the yaw-prevention portion of the system might erroneously recognize movement through the curve as yaw, that is, rotation about a vertical axis through the vehicle, an accelerometer (36') is provided, connected to sense transverse acceleration of the vehicle, e.g. about a vertical axis, and inhibiting application of the yaw-preventing signals to the automatic braking system.

Abstract: A system for attaching furring adjacent a column includes a corner clip (140, 142) having a first leg (160) for attachment adjacent a column and a second leg (162) extending from the first leg. The second leg (162) extends substantially longitudinally of the column. The clip may be attached directly to the column or to the ceiling or decking adjacent the column. One end of a corner angle (150) is engaged over the second leg of the clip. The opposite end of the corner angle is engaged over the corresponding leg of a similar clip. The corner angle is then plumbed by moving the second end of the angle and clip, and the clip is attached to the decking or ceiling to maintain the angle plumb. Furring (G) is attached to the corner angle to cover the column.

Abstract: A controller (13) provides control signals to an engine (E) to control its idling speed. To provide for additional fuel under special operating conditions--e.g. low engine temperature, starting conditions, placement of a sudden load such as connection of an air-conditioner or the like--a modification signal is generated in signal generators (17, 18, 19 . . . 19n) which signals are introduced into the path of the signals from the idle or command function generator (11) to a positioning element (15) which controls fuel supply to the engine. The engine itself can provide at least some of the signals to the function generators, for example by engine temperature transducers (ETt); engine speed transducers (ETn), to provide engine temperature signals. Starting can be sensed by sensing both engine speed and temperature, and/or operation of the starting switch.

Abstract: A method and a device for an adaptive forward feeding of a disturbance correcting signal in a regulator is based on storing an output signal from the regulator at a first time point t.sub.0 corresponding to the occurrence of a disturbance. At a later time point t.sub.1 when the disturbance has been settled by the regulator, a second output signal from the regulator indicative of the final integration level is compared with a stored signal and the difference signal is processed and combined with a constant disturbance correcting signal, thus producing another an adapted disturbance correcting signal which minimizes the deviation from a desired magnitude and at the input of the regulator. The processing of the adaptive correction signal at the output of the comparator is preferably made by an integration according to a preset formula of a plurality of differences produced from a plurality of forward switching actions before the second time point t.sub.1.

The magnetic valve, to this end, engages the hydraulic control of the injection adjuster.

Abstract: A fuel injection apparatus for definite pilot and main injection in internal combustion engines. A hydraulic auxiliary pump is supplied via a pressure line with fuel from a high-pressure injection pump, which fuel reaches a main injection nozzle and simultaneously drives the hydraulic auxiliary pump. The hydraulic auxiliary pump contains a differential piston comprising a reservoir piston and a pilot injection piston with different diameters and with a spring prestressing such that between the end of supply of the pilot injection and the onset of supply of the main injection, an injection-free spacing stroke (DH) which can be predetermined by means of mechanical stops results, during which spacing stroke (DH) the reservoir piston by retracting further, receives the supply quantity which is pumped during the injection interval by the high-pressure injection pump.

Abstract: A fuel injection apparatus having pre-injection and main injection and associated with Diesel engines is disclosed. A high-pressure injection pump delivers a main injection quantity to a main injection nozzle, and a hydraulic pre-injection auxiliary pump is driven by this same pressure pulse. The pre-injection auxiliary pump includes a stepped piston, comprising a pre-injection piston portion and a driving piston portion, and the stepped piston has as an integral component such as a slide pintle control valve located in an extension of its driving piston portion. This control valve opens the passage to the continuing pressure line and to the main injection nozzle only after a predetermined stroke of the stepped piston has been attained.

Abstract: A device is suggested wherein the work piece finishing chamber (31) serves simultaneously as a mixing chamber for mixing the gas components, and wherein a gas deceleration stage (47) is integrated in chamber block (30) between chamber (31) and a spark plug (54). The gas deceleration stage (47) is provided with labyrinth like extending bores (49,50,51). The combustion residues generated in the work piece finishing chamber (31) cannot reach spark plug (54) in view of the gas deceleration stage (47). Thus, a contamination of the spark plug (54) being disposed in block (30) is substantially eliminated.

Abstract: Special effect television picture transitions in which the new picture grows from a point on the television screen to occupy the entire screen, displacing the old picture, can be made to originate at any point of the television screen and to bring the picture to occupy precisely the entire television screen under control of a single actuating lever moved to produce the entire transition. The special effect picture size voltages which conventionally control the size of the special effect picture are inverted and multiplied by the corresponding picture shift voltages (horizontal and vertical) to produced inputs to the conventional function generators controlling the position of the special effects picture.

Abstract: A vehicle brake system including a brake force booster, controllable a brake pedal, for actuating a main brake cylinder in order to supply wheel brake cylinders with braking pressure for service braking operations and also includes brake pressure control valves, which direct braking pressures into individual wheel brake cylinders if there is a danger that the wheels will lock during braking. To this end, pressure is supplied to the brake pressure control valves from the brake force booster via controlled valves. In order to be able to reduce drive slip as well, the controlled valves are embodied as a switchover valve, so that pressure can be directed to the brake pressure control valves directly from a pressure supply container bypassing the brake force booster. The vehicle brake system is inexpensively further embodied for reducing drive slip by modifying the control valves.

Abstract: To facilitate manufacture and increase the lifetime of a speed-dependent coupling between the ventilation or fan wheel (23) and drive shaft (18, 21) of the alternator, an inner race (25) is secured to the drive shaft, formed with two parallel running grooves (26, 27) in which two rows of balls (28, 29) are rolling. A pair of outer races is formed as ring-shaped elements (30, 31), of part-circular cross section, surrounding opposite, at least approximately quarter-circular zones of the balls, the outer races being axially biased towards each other by a pair of disk-shaped membranes (34, 35) to which the ventilation fan wheel (23) is attached, the membranes being biased towards each other by a biasing force (F), for example exerted by axial screws, securing the disk-shaped membranes together for resiliently biasing the ring-shaped elements towards each other and exerting axial pressure on the balls (28, 29) running in the grooves of the inner race and beneath the outer races.

Abstract: A device is proposed for controlling the injection start to a set-point value dependent on operating parameters, in which the period of time between the appearance of an injection start signal and a reference marking (for instance, a top-dead-center signal) is counted out and the result of counting is compared with the set-point value. To avoid malfunctioning, the triggering of the counting process is possible in only one, predetermined crankshaft angle range. Various values are provided for the counting-out frequency. In the exemplary embodiment they are within the range between 50 and 200 kHz. In case of failure, a control of injection onset is effected, and as needed, a limitation of the fuel quantity as well--for instance to 70% of the respectively determined quantity.
