Abstract: A ball valve, in particular for explosion isolation in process pipelines, includes a housing pipe coaxial with the through-flow direction, bearing rings which are flanged respectively onto the end faces of the housing pipe and have bearing shoulders that engage in the internal opening of the housing pipe, a valve body, in the basic form of a ball ring having a continuous through-flow opening, mounted between the bearing shoulders via sealing rings inserted therein so as to be driven in rotation about an axis of rotation, extending perpendicularly to the through-flow direction, between a respectively stopped closed and open position, a rotary drive for the valve body, and stop recesses which are formed directly in the valve body and form end stops for stop protrusions on the housing pipe in order to define the closed and open position of the valve body.

Abstract: An explosion protection valve for decoupling system parts or workpieces, in particular for the installation in a pipeline, comprising a housing, a closing body which is axially guided inside the housing on a guide rod and can be displaced from a defined open position in the event of one of the group comprising a pressure and suction wave in the pipeline in at least one closing movement direction into a sealing closed position in which the closing body can be fixed by means of a locking device, a spring assembly, which is in operative connection to the closing body, on the guide rod for holding the closing body in the open position, bearing assemblies each carrying the end of the guide rod, which are each connected to the housing by means of at least one suspension cross-member, and a bearing arrangement, which is subject to play, of the at least one suspension cross-member in a receiving opening on the housing.

Abstract: An explosion protection valve for decoupling system parts or workpieces for the installation in a pipeline, comprising a housing, a closing body which is axially guided inside the housing on a guide rod and can be shifted from a defined open position into a sealing closed position in the event of a pressure or suction wave in the pipeline in at least one closing movement direction, a spring assembly, which is in operative connection to the closing body, on the guide rod for holding the closing body in the open position, a sealing ring on the inner side of the housing, against which the closing body can be pressed in its closed position, and a receiving pocket, which is applied to the inner side of the housing and is preferably open counter to the closing movement direction (SB) of the closing body, for holding the sealing ring.

Abstract: One or more fluid streams are uniformly divided into two or more partial fluid streams in chemical apparatuses in a manner such that there is a reduced tendency to form deposits. Division of such stream(s) is achieved by using a distributor device that includes at least one plate having two or more openings which openings are rounded or chamfered on at least one side.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for separation of substance mixtures on the micro scale. The invention further relates to a process for separating substance mixtures using the inventive device.

Abstract: According to the invention, the coil of a magnet coil arrangement has a coil body which comprises a winding (14) and is extruded with plastic (17). A plug-in base with contact connectors is formed on the coil, wherein one of the connectors is used for connection of the grounding conductor (18). A metallic housing is placed over the coil. Connection of said metallic housing to the contact connector associated to the grounding conductor is achieved by means of a connection element which is guided through a recess of the plug-in base. A sealing element (42) disposed between the connection element and the recess prevents penetration of a fluid from a region between the metallic housing and the coil, into the region where a connector is connected to the contact connectors.

Abstract: Dampening-unit roller for a dampening unit of a printing machine includes a roller body having an outer cylindrical surface, and a coating on the outer cylindrical surface, the coating including or consisting of an oxide of zirconium and/or an oxide of yttrium.

Abstract: Apparatus for protecting the surface of freshly printed sheets which are deposited upon one another to form a sheet pile includes an applicator for applying to the respective sheets a separating-agent layer formed of solid particles of separating agent, the layer of separating agent being formed of a mixture including at least one degradable separating agent substance, an aqueous vehicle liquid, and at least one mixture component which degrades the separating agent substance upon simultaneous contact with the separating agent substance and the vehicle liquid.

Abstract: Metal oxide powders comprised of Cr(III) oxide, Ti(IV) oxide, V(V) oxide, or mixtures of these, or metal mixed oxides comprised of Cr(III) oxide and Ti(IV) oxide and V(V) oxide, or their mixtures. They have BET surfaces of 5-50m.sup.2 /g and mean particle diameters of 25-350 nm and are useful to increase conversion and selectivity in the manufacture of mono-olefins by catalytic dehydrogenation of saturated hydrocarbons. The metal oxide powders are produced from mixtures of the vaporized metal compounds chromyl chloride, titanium tetrachloride, and vanadyl chloride, in the presence of certain gases by laser pyrolysis.
