Abstract: A visualisation system for visualising the processing of a chemical product uses at least two processing units. The visualisation system contains a communication interface, a profiling module, and a user interface. The communication interface is configured for communicating with the processing units to receive a respective value of processing parameters for processing the chemical product. The profiling module is configured for providing a reference profile including a respective reference value for processing parameters for a reference chemical product and for providing a profile for the chemical product. The profile includes a respective deviation value of processing parameters for the chemical product determined based on a difference between the respective value of the processing parameters for processing the chemical product and the respective reference value.

Abstract: In a direct-injection spark-ignition internal combustion engine having one injector per cylinder for injecting fuel into a combustion chamber, wherein the injector has an injection nozzle with a plurality of injection holes which are distributed over its circumference, so that the jets of fuel from the injection holes form during an injection process a conical cloud of fuel, the piston opposite the injection nozzle includes a piston recess provided with a plurality of radial cavities extending from the recess radially into the piston head for receiving fuel injected into the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A method of correcting physically conditioned errors in the measurement of an object detects an image of the object to be measured, measures the imaged object, determines a measurement error caused by structural surroundings of the object, and corrects the measurement result in dependence on the measurement error.

Abstract: A method for generating information for producing a pattern, defined by design information on a medium, using at least one direct-writing pattern generating process, which first provides the design information and then calculates correction data based on the provided design information and depending on the pattern generating process which corrects pattern faults in the pattern to be generated which were caused by the pattern generating process. The design and correction information is then separately provided to the direct-writing pattern generating process for its activation.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for controlling the revolutions of the spinning roller (29) of a spinning lathe (10). The coordinate driving units (52,53), which are designed as valve controlled (49,51) hydrocylinders (42,47), are operated according to a playback process according to which the coordinate driving units (52,53) are operated according to a follow-up process in which position set values are electrically preregulated and mechanical real values are fed back. The slowing down path .DELTA.S (lag error) is continuously measured at least during the last revolution of the spinning roller (29), so that when a threshold value .DELTA.Smax is exceeded, the tracking speed V.sub.B is reduced and/or a transitioning to an intermediate routing curve occurs. A spinning lathe for carrying out the process is also disclosed.

Abstract: A hydraulic drive (10) for the adjustment, feed and return movements of a tool head of a machine tool comprises a hydraulic motor (11) and an after-running adjustment valve (12). The reference value of the position is set and the actual value indicated by means of a threaded spindle (39) and spindle nut (37) in the form of a hollow shaft. One of these two elements can be driven by an electric motor (41) in order to set the reference value of the position. The other of these two elements can be driven in order to indicate the value of the actual position. A rotational and angular position indicator system (68, 74, 75 and 69, 77) produces an output which is a direct measure of the total number of revolutions executed by the preset reference value shaft and of the azimuthal position of the preset reference value shaft within each revolution. An electronic position sensor system (71, 78 and 71', 78'; 71") produces an output which is a measure of the contouring error S.

Abstract: In an identification card to be read by a magnetic system, having two protective plates between which a plate-like data carrier is held and protected, this data carrier being made of a material acting upon a magnetic field and having zones providing the data and acting variously upon the magnetic field, it is proposed, in order to lengthen the life of the card as well as to provide greater security against counterfeiting, that the two protective plates be made from non-magnetizable metal, preferably sheet bronze, and that the data carrier be embedded between the two protective plates in a layer of adhesive, plastic or solder, the two protective plates being thereby firmly joined together.

Abstract: Acoustic frictional resistance comprises a plate having at least one laser-formed hole therethrough. The plate is formed by positioning a plate preferably one having a thickness smaller than one and one-half milimeters alongside a laser and directing the laser beam so that it cuts a hole through the plate. During the process of producing the resistance, the value of the acoustic friction is measured as a pressure drop of a constant air stream or as an expenditure of electrical energy for an electrically excited electroacoustic transducer. This measurement is then used as a variable or as a standard for controlling the process. Advantageously, a coherent beam is emitted by the laser which is deflected by mirror from a horizontal to a vertical direction and focused by means of a lens to work in a contact-free manner on a workpiece supported on a support member such as a movable table. By moving the table in two coordinate directions, a plurality of bores are formed in a pattern in a workpiece.

Abstract: The invention relates to a combined current and voltage converter for metal-enclosed high-voltage installations with compressed-gas filling. In order to be able to avoid any passages for the connecting leads through the housing (1, 2), the electrode of the capacitive voltage converter part consists of an intermediate element (3) inserted into the housing in an insulated and gas pressure-tight manner. The intermediate element (3) has on its outside a layer of insulating material (9) and on top of this a metal layer (10). The whole (3, 9, 10) forms a support body for current converter cores (11) surrounded by secondary windings. The low-voltage capacity between the intermediate element (3) and the metal layer (10) is fed to an electronic measuring amplifier (14) via a screened measuring cable (12/12a). The current converter cores (11) are protected mechanically by a sheath tube (16), the latter simultaneously conducting housing currents. FIG. 1.

Abstract: An immersion percolating filter arrangement for biologically purifying sewage effluent which is provided with growth accumulation surfaces adapted to be slowly rotated about an axis of rotation whereby the surfaces are alternately immersed in the sewage effluent and removed therefrom so as to enrich the biological growth accumulated thereon with oxygen. The growth accumulation surfaces are formed from a flexible material which are suspended under tension in planes parallel to one another within a roller cage support structure having end faces which are substantially circular. The end faces of the roller cage support structure are each provided with a bearing arrangement for permitting the rotation of the support structure about the axis of rotation with one of the bearing arrangements being connected to a suitable driving source.
