Abstract: An axle boot for joint sealing, in particular on the drive train of motor vehicles, includes a substantially axisymmetric bellows, which is designed as a single piece with a connecting collar. The connecting collar has a plurality of indentations projecting towards the inside that are adapted to radial recesses in the external contour of the joint housing. To the outside of the connecting collar are attached compensating pieces that complete the external contour, forming a cylindrical circumferential surface on which a clamp is located.

Abstract: Described is a process and a device for liquefying hydrogen, whereby the hydrogen to be liquefied is liquefied against one or more refrigerant (mixture) circuits and/or by means of expansion and is guided over at least one ortho-para conversion catalyst. According to the invention, the ortho-para conversion catalyst or at least one of the ortho-para conversion catalysts (K) can be bypassed. Furthermore, during the liquefaction process an exchange (7, 8) can take place between the hydrogen fraction (3), flowing (2, 4) through the ortho-para conversion catalyst(s) (K), and the hydrogen fraction (3), not flowing through the ortho-para conversion catalyst(s) (K).

Abstract: A storage container (1) for cryogenic media (2), especially for liquid hydrogen, having an outside container (3), an inside container (4) and at least one extraction and fill line (6, 6?) is described. According to the invention in the storage container (1), there is at least one additional storage space (5, 5?) for a medium and at least the extraction line (6, 6?) is dynamically connected to the additional storage space (5, 5?). A shield (12) that preferably at least partially surrounds the inside container (4) can be assigned to the additional storage space (5, 5?) and can be in thermal contact with it. The additional storage space (5) can also be made in the form of a hollow chamber section and can at least partially surround the inside container (4). The invention makes it possible to greatly reduce the evaporation rate in storage containers (1) that are used to store cryogenic media (2).

Abstract: A process for preparing a controlled release composition with a controlled release matrix and containing a pharmaceutically active ingredient, which comprises granulating the active ingredient with a molten matrix material or with a matrix material while it is being melted and with optional additional inactive materials at a first elevated temperature, then cooling and screening the granulate, forming a fluidized bed of the resulting material at a second elevated temperature, and recovering the resulting product; and the product formed by the process.

Abstract: The process for data transmission between two stations by means of data blocks each having a synchronization pattern field (SYNC), a header field (HEADER) and an information field (INFORMATION) following the header field includes providing a header control field (HEX) following the header field (HEADER) in each of the data blocks for reconstruction of the header field when a transmission of the header field contains errors.

Abstract: Polychlorinated waste materials such as polychlorinated dibenzodioxines (PCDD), polychlorinated dibenzofuranes (PCDF) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) are subjected to nonpolluting destruction by combusting said materials together with waste sulfuric acids, acid tars and similar sulfur- and carbon-containing waste products of various compositions and consistencies in a multi-stage combustion furnace.

Abstract: Filter inserts that contain solvent residues from varnishes, paint, adhesive, coating masses and the like are disposed of by putting the filter inserts into a sealable vessel, such as a homogenization machine used in the milk industry. The filter inserts are ground and heated in the sealed vessel together with solvent residues. The heat converts the solvent residues to a gas phase. A negative pressure pump downstream from a solvent condenser drains the gaseous solvent from the vessel into the solvent condenser. Solvent condensate is precipitated in the solvent condenser and fed to a condensate collecting tank.

Abstract: A filter device includes a circular adapter firmly and integrally connected to a head as a unit enclosing therebetween a fluid distribution compartment in a fluid-tight manner. The head is provided with upward extending outflow and feed connectors. The adapter is provided with downward extending cartridge connectors to which filter cartridges are connectable. The head and adapter unit is further provided with a conical collar on its outer periphery. A gripping clamping ring surrounds the collar. Between the collar and the clamping ring, the top region of at least one flexible foil bag is clamped. The outer conical surface of the clamping ring is pressed against an inwardly directed conical surface on the upper rim of a filter pot.

Abstract: A filter apparatus is equipped with easily releasable coupling ends (28) of the inlet and outlet connection pieces (27) respectively, and the top wall (11) carrying the inlet and outlet connection pieces is connected unreleasably to the adjoining peripheral wall of the filter housing. For maintenance or cleaning, the filter apparatus is exchanged as a self-contained unit. Since the filter housing itself is not separable in operational terms and there are therefore no sensitive separable seals between housing parts, the housing cross-section can be of any form and therefore especially cuboid for the most effective possible utilization of space.

Abstract: Device for a filter device, having a circular adapter, having at least one connector extending downwards out of the adapter, to which connector a filter cartridge is attachable, having a feed hole in the adapter, having an outflow volume above the adapter and communicating with the connector, having a circular head above the adapter, having a feed connector which extends upwards out of the head and communicates with the feed hole, and having an outflow connector which extends upwards out from the head and communicates with the outflow volume, characterized by the following features:(a) the adapter and the head are in one piece.(b) In their circumferential regions the adapter and the head are connected tightly against medium and mechanically rigidly by a circumferential wall.Around the feed hole and around the feed connector the adapter and the head are connected tightly against medium and mechanically rigidly with one another by an inner wall.
