Abstract: To be able to manufacture an operator control arrangement cost-effectively, the display and operator control units are embodied such that they are functionally identical and interchangeable. A calculation unit is provided which converts process data of functional units of a rail vehicle into image data and processes operator control data on the basis of operator control actions performed at the display and operator control units. The display and operator control units are connected to the calculation unit via a data network by a network protocol for transmitting the image data and the operator control action data. A status unit is connected to the data network, which status unit determines the respectively valid status of the operator control arrangement by a rail-vehicle-specific configuration logic of the possible combinations of the display and operator control units and the calculation unit as a function of the respective status of the rail vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a shuttering element for a trench wall and to a method for producing the trench wall. To form the trench wall in the ground a first trench is produced initially, which is filled with a hardenable mass for forming a first trench wall segment. After the production of the first trench and before a hardening of an infilled mass into the first trench wall segment a shuttering element is arranged on at least one front face of the first trench. The shuttering element has a board-shaped base body comprising a first shuttering surface and a second shuttering surface, between which a receiving bead is arranged which is recessed with respect to the two shuttering surfaces. In the receiving bead a sealing tape is arranged which extends along the base body. The receiving bead is covered by a cover element, wherein a receiving space is enclosed in which the sealing tape is arranged.

Abstract: The invention relates to a covering agent for a top slag of a metallic melt bath in a metallurgical vessel, in particular used in the steel industry, containing a material which melts on the melt bath and performs metallurgical work, wherein the material substantially comprises granules which have been rendered porous and the porosity of which is such that, at the melt bath temperature, a molten layer of liquid slag is formed on the melt bath, and a thermal barrier layer of the granules is formed above the molten layer of liquid slag. In addition, the invention relates to a process for producing the covering agent and to its use.
