Abstract: An apparatus and system of operation of an electrodialysis membrane and gasket stack for separation of components in liquid mixtures is disclosed. The system of operation for purification and deionizing liquids includes an operation of pretreatment by filtration for removal of inorganic contaminants, includes an operation of adsorption for removing organic contaminants by activated carbon adsorption, and includes an operation of deionizing for removing ions from the effluent liquids. The deionizing operation includes an apparatus having an electrodialysis stack of a plurality of ion exchange membranes and separating gaskets for selectively removing contaminant ions. The electrodialysis stack of ion exchange membranes and separating gaskets provides continuous operations for purifying ethylene glycol and glycol/water mixtures, for continuous desalinating of water, and/or for continuous deionizing of water to generate ultra-pure water or other purified liquid mixtures.

The system of operation for purification and deionizing liquids includes an operation of pretreatment by filtration for removal of inorganic contaminants, includes an operation of adsorption for removing organic contaminants by activated carbon adsorption, and includes an operation of deionizing for removing ions from the effluent liquids. The deionizing operation includes an apparatus having an electrodialysis stack of a plurality of ion exchange membranes and separating gaskets for selectively removing contaminant ions. The combination of treatment operations and the deionizing operation provides a continuous operating system with minimized down-time and improved efficiencies over prior methods for purification of liquid mixtures.

Abstract: In manufacturing an electronic control unit, a stamped grid is assembled with electronic components and the components are electrically connected with parts of the stamped grid. Subsequently, a body is formed by injection molding plastic material around the components and assembling ends of the grid structure which remain free with fit-on components and electrically connect them. The fit-on components with the body are again surrounded by injection molding by plastic material, while leaving open an exterior frame structure of the stamped grid. Finally, the frame structure is assembled with additional components and/or stamped off.

Abstract: A device for fastening on a motor vehicle with a loading surface and a boundary wall for the nonskid transport of objects, has a mounting element to be fastened on the boundary wall, a holding element, a scissor-type mechanism connecting the holding element with the mounting element, the scissor-type mechanism including a first pair of crossing levers hingedly connected with each other at a first common central hinge point and a second pair of crossing levers hingedly connected with each other at a second common central point, each of the levers of the first pair are hinged to the mounting element, wherein the first ends of the levers of the second pair are hinged to the holding element, wherein the second ends of the levers of the first pair are hinged to the second ends of respective ones of the levers of the second pair, and wherein the arrangement is such that the scissor-type mechanism allows movement of the holding element along a path back and forth with respect to the mounting element, and fixing a un

Abstract: A central carrier, which is constructed as a stamped part or a metallized plastic part is used for the mutual electrical and mechanical connection of the other components of the system. A plastic material and molded part is sprayed around the carrier. In turn, this molded part holds together the carrier which, after the plastic was sprayed around it, was divided into electrically insulated conductor parts, and which molded part forms housing walls as well as a plug casing.

Abstract: A device for the do-it-yourself making of cigarettes employs a pre-proportioned tobacco rod (16) which is transferred from a cylindrical rod wrapping (18) into a cigarette paper tube (14) by an axially moveable pusher member (10; 110), which is associated with a tube-like insertion nozzle (12; 112) having an insertion end (6; 106) formed with an outer diameter which is slightly less than that of the cigarette tube (14).

Abstract: Interference suppression filter, including a metal cup having an open end, a ring core choke, a wound capacitor and a discharge resistor being interconnected and cast together in the metal cup, first and second network side and appliance side connectors being extended outwardly through the open end of the cup, the first connectors each being connected to the ring core choke and having free ends, an insulator plate disposed adjacent the open end of the cup, and resilient clamping elements being disposed on the plate, at least the free ends of the first connectors being held by the clamping elements, and the second connectors being dip-soldered to the first connectors.
