Abstract: A telecommunications terminal block includes at least one contact module. The contact module features a front side and a rear side, an upper side and a lower side, a first side and a second side opposite the first side. Furthermore, the contact module features at least one row of contacts extending between the first side and the second side. The contacts are exposed at the front side. For another thing, the terminal block includes wire guides arranged at the upper side and/or lower side of the contact module. The wire guides lead cable conductors from (file front side to the first side or second side. The wire guides are grouped together into arrays, the wire guides of which each lead to a single side. At least two arrays, a first array and a second array, of wire guides, adjoin each other and at least one row of contacts of each contact module and are assigned to this row of contacts. The wire guides of each such array lead to opposite sides.

Abstract: Apparatus for transmitting torque between the output shaft of the engine and the input shaft of the transmission in a motor vehicle has a fluid coupling with a housing secured to the output shaft and containing an impeller, a runner and, if necessary, a guide wheel. The runner is connected to a hub on the input shaft by a carrier for a torsionally elastic damper having coil springs which receive torque from the housing. The damper is in series with a clutch which can be operated to bypass the fluid coupling.

A distribution point comprises at least one such terminal block.

Abstract: A telecommunications overvoltage protection magazine (10) permits in the mounting position direct mounting in a telecommunications rack-mounting system behind a junction zone (12) for cable conductors and electrical connection to the junction zone (12), the surge arresters being insertable in a mounting position from below, from above or partly from above and partly from below, more particularly alternatingly from above and below.

Abstract: A vacuum pump, in particular for brake booster systems in motor vehicles, with a drivable rotor via which a blade in a housing can be set in rotation is proposed. The vacuum pump is distinguished by the fact that the rotor consists of plastic and is formed as one piece.

Abstract: A termination tool for terminating cable cores in telecommunications module contacts, comprises a handle, a jig for receiving the cores and stuffing them into a contact, and a trimmer (10) on said jig, wherein said trimmer (10) is at least double-acting, so that at least two cable cores can be trimmed to length in a single operation.

Abstract: The invention provides an amorphous hydrocracking catalyst for conversion of a hydrocarbon feed having a fraction above the diesel boiling range to diesel and a process using said catalyst. The catalyst includes Al2O3—SiO2 support, a noble catalytically active metal which is active for hydrocracking of a hydrocarbon above the diesel boiling range and a transition metal oxide selected from group V, VI and VII.

Abstract: A telecommunications backbone junction module (10) is configured in the form of a cable connector for mounting in a telecommunications rack-mounting system and comprises through-contact elements for joining, particularly prefabricated, conductors of a backbone cable (12) on the one hand, and, on the other, IDC contacts in a front portion in the mounting position for joining the patching cables (14).

Abstract: A hydrokinetic torque converter is provided with a lockup clutch wherein the piston and other constituents of the lockup clutch are adequately cooled during each stage of operation of the torque converter and its clutch. The piston of the lockup clutch and/or the component which cooperates with the piston to transmit torque from the housing directly to the turbine of the torque converter is provided with a friction lining which establishes a portion of the path for the flow of fluid coolant between the fluid-filled compartments at opposite sides of the piston. The rate of fluid flow between the compartments is regulated by one or more adjustable valves which are carried by the housing of the torque converter and/or by the piston of the lockup clutch.

Abstract: A shaft coupling for connecting two shaft ends to transmit torque. Each shaft end has a recess or a projection. A projection on one shaft end projects into the recess in the other shaft end and their cooperating side walls transmit torque. A centering device at one shaft end cooperates with a centering device on the other shaft end for axially aligning the shaft ends. These may be a cylindrical projection one shaft end and a corresponding recess in the other shaft end. Alternatively, the centering devices are recesses in both shaft ends and a pin that extends into both of the centering recesses. Applied elastic material on at least one of the centering device elements enables secure attachment between the shaft ends.

Abstract: An hydraulic conveying device, in particular for conveying diesel fuel for an internal-combustion engine in motor vehicles, with a housing provided with at least one conveying chamber as well as a displacement unit rotor arranged in the conveying chamber. Rotation of the displacement unit forms pump chambers with varying volumes by means of which a fluid is conveyed from a suction connection of the conveying device to a pressure connection of the conveying device. The conveying devices includes a screen or wall with openings for retaining a quantity of the fluid to be conveyed in the conveying chamber when a supply of fluid by way of the suction connection is interrupted.

Abstract: A method and device for recovering linear polyesters, such as PET and PBT, from polyester waste of the most varied form, in a continuous manner, in which undried or not dried-through waste is melted, the polymer chains being hydrolytically degraded by adhering moisture, and in which diol, corresponding to the basic constitutional unit of the polymer, is added to the melt resulting in glycolytic degradation, and the melt so treated is further condensed to the desired degree of polymerization.

Abstract: A terminal block assembly is provided containing a bus bar having a knife edge arranged to penetrate the insulation of an insulated conductor that is carried by a support member, whereby during the connection of the support member with the terminal block, the insulation is penetrated by the knife edge to electrically connect the conductor with the bus bar.
