Abstract: Roll-up window blind assembly for motor vehicles comprising a roll-up window blind near a window pane and an adjusting mechanism disposed underneath the window pane for drawing off a blind material from a winding body, which is joined to the lower end of a power transmission means, the upper end of which is linked to a pull rod joined to the upper edge of the blind material to draw said material off. Assembly further comprises guide means for guidance of the power transmission means. To effectively prevent vibration of the blind material against the window pane, the guide means controls a path of the power transmission means whereby, during the drawing, the upper end of the power transmission means moves towards or contacts the window pane and moves along or in contact with the window pane on further drawing-off of the blind material.

Abstract: The regeneration of platinum group metal suspension catalysts involves a dissolution step using HCl and an oxidant, such as Cl2 or H2O2, and a precipitating step carried out in the presence of a reducing agent, especially an aldehyde, an HCOOH or a formiate. According to the invention, the content of non-platinum metals which are dragged into the catalyst as a result of the method can be reduced by carrying out the precipitation in the presence of a chelate complexing agent for one or more metals selected from the series of metals of groups 2a, 3a, 4a of the periodic table and of the transition elements without elements of the platinum group.

Abstract: The invention relates to a component consisting of a high-strength sheet, in particular a structural component, which is provided with a deformation structure in a locally limited stiffening region, this deformation structure considerably increasing the local stiffness of the component compared with conventional components. The stiffness-increasing deformation structure consists of a periodic grid of concave and convex bulges nested one inside the other. It is embossed in certain, locally limited regions of the sheet by means of a deep-drawing method. The regular periodic grid structure of the stiffening pattern permits a computational simulation of the stiffnesses to be achieved and, as a consequence thereof, a systematic optimization of the stiffening structure for the respective component. The bulge depths may be locally varied inside the stiffening structure, as a result of which local variations in the stiffness of the component are specifically achieved inside the stiffening region.
