Abstract: The invention relates to a clay mineral for use as an agent for reducing the concentration of inorganic phosphate in liquids, in particular in bodily fluids or dialysis liquids, in order to treat hyperphosphatemia, in particular in a renal replacement therapy, wherein before use, the clay mineral is thermally treated at a temperature between 400° C. and 800° C., preferably between 500° C. and 700° C., in particular preferably at 550° C., over a time period of 60 min to 240 min, preferably 90 min to 180 min, in particular preferably 120 min.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stopper (1) for a beverage container, a tapping assembly and a beverage container (100). The stopper (1) comprises an outer part (4) which has a ring flange (41) and a sleeve (42), the sleeve (42), below the ring flange (41), being circumferentially deformed to form a bulge (43), and a spreading ring (3) which has a ring flange (31) and a plurality of L-shaped elements (32) which have a pivot (D) at the angle of the “L” and the free ends of which are designed as hooks (33), and a bushing (2) and a rotational cover (5), which has a cover plate (54) and a sleeve (51). When the stopper (1) is in a position of nonuse, the spreading ring (3) is pre-positioned in the outer part (4), the bushing (2) protrudes partially into the spreading ring (3), and the hooks (33) point radially inward.

Abstract: The cylinder head for internal combustion engines is produced by pouring liquid cylinder head material, especially aluminum, into a cylinder head mold containing a mold core having stepped sections in the region of the valve seat ring and the valve guide. The valve seat rings and valve guides are produced from a conventional material based on steel or copper by pressing and sintering in such a way that they have an open pore volume of 5 to 15%, a valve seat and/or a valve guide are laid on the stepped sections of the mold core, whereafter liquid aluminum is poured into the preheated mold and the mold core is removed in the conventional way after the molten aluminum has solidified.

Abstract: In a method for mounting and finishing a valve seat ring in an operational position of a receiving bore at the entrance of a gas channel of the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine consisting of a light alloy, an annular body with a central opening is manufactured by powder pressing and sintering. A roller burnishing tool is positioned within the central of the annular body. The annular body is inserted into the receiving bore with the aid of the roller burnishing tool such that the annular body is positioned with play relative the inner wall of the receiving bore. The annular body is radially expanded by roller burnishing with the roller burnishing tool such that the annular body positive-lockingly engages the inner wall of the receiving bore and is compressed to a selected finish size of ready-to-use density.

Abstract: An apparatus for the recognition of a rising slope is provided in particular for commercial vehicles, such as trucks or busses. The device comprises at least one sensor (1) for the axle load of the rear axle and/or of the front axle, as well as a device (4) for measuring the vehicle acceleration relative to the road. The signals of the sensor (1) and of the device (4) are fed into an electronics (2). The electronics (2) recognizes from these fed-in data, whether the vehicle is disposed on an uphill grade or on a downhill grade or on level ground. The thus generated signal can be further employed in various electronic systems, for example, in an automatic drawbar force control system.
