Abstract: A method for the destruction of data carriers preventing access to the process of rendering confidential data carriers, which consist of paper or similar material, unreadable and allowing the carriers to be destroyed. In the method, confidential data carriers are collected at the point of origin in secure collection containers, removed by a collection vehicle, and are supplied to a paper recycling plant in a final step. The interior of a mobile pulper, which is connected to the collection vehicle, is filled with the confidential data carriers, the carriers are mixed with a pulping fluid and the mixture is blended by an agitator to form a suspension of defibrated documents and pulping fluid, a hydromechanical pulping process taking place in the pulper before the suspension is supplied to the paper recycling plant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rail vehicle brake system comprising a conditioning device, having at least one disc brake per axle, the conditioning device having a control device. The conditioning device is formed having at least one wagon control unit and at least one coupling unit for selective actuation of the at least one disc brake per axle. The invention further relates to a conditioning device and to a method for operating a conditioning device, and to a method for deicing and/or for preventing icing of a brake unit of a rail vehicle brake system.

Abstract: A brake lining for a disc brake includes a distribution of lining elements which are arranged on a lining support or on group supports in groups, and the group supports are secured to the lining support. The lining elements have first lining elements and second lining elements, and the group supports have a first group support and a second group support. The first lining elements are arranged on the first group support or on the lining support in a non-tiltable and/or inflexible manner, and the second lining elements are arranged on the second group support or on the lining in a tiltable and/or flexible manner.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a refrigerator unit and/or a freezer unit comprising a cooling tank, which includes an inner tank having a refrigerated space, and an evaporator. The present invention furthermore relates to a method of installing a refrigerator unit and/or freezer unit in which an evaporator as well as at least one further electrical and/or technical cooling functional component are inserted in an inner tank of the refrigerator unit and/or freezer unit and are fastened to an inner tank wall. Installing the various electrical and technical cooling components after one another individually at different positions of the inner tank of the unit and individually connecting them to the outwardly disposed electronics of the unit is avoided with the present invention. Already installing individual components before the foaming of the unit tank is in particular also avoided, whereby the housing handling is considerably facilitated.

Abstract: In a method for the space-saving arrangement of conductor tracks (5-8) on device components (12), in particular on the body parts of motor vehicles, an insulating base layer (2) is applied to a metallic device component (12). Subsequently, the conductor track material is applied in a number of parallel tracks and activated. Subsequently, an electrically insulating protective layer (3) is arranged on the conductor tracks (5-8).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an arrangement (7) for protection of an electrical device. In this case, the device is connected via one pole terminal (4) to one pole (3) of a battery (1) . A protective contact unit (9) has a connecting section (10) which is connected directly to the pole terminal (4), and has a starting assistance contact section (11) which is connected to the connecting section (10) via a switch (12). An evaluation circuit (15) operates the switch (12) in order to disconnect the electrical connection between the starting assistance contact section (11) and the connecting section (10) as soon as the evaluation circuit (15) detects a fault current.

Abstract: An office chair that is adjustable in height and inclination includes a carrier body held on an upright standard, a swivel body arranged on a knee side of the carrier body, a seat carrier which is swivellable about a first joint position on the knee side. A backrest carrier is operatively connected to the seat carrier at a second joint position and is coupled with the carrier body by a third joint position. The carrier body additionally has an arcuate link guide, and a link block guide can swivelly hold the backrest carrier in the link guide, the link guide is arranged between the first joint position and the upright standard. The backrest carrier is guided along the link guide, and the seat carrier, which is operatively connected with the backrest carrier, can be selectively and releaseably arranged in a plurality of positions by a snap-in mechanism. The snap-in mechanism is provided on the carrier body and can be brought into engagement with the backrest carrier.

Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of a heated lambda sensor with a stepped or binary sensor characteristic and another heated lambda sensor to determine the lambda value in a gas mixture, e.g. in the exhaust gas preferably of internal combustion engines, the output signal from one lambda sensor being used to calibrate the other one, and the two lambda sensors are arranged closely beside each other, the other lambda sensor having a wide-baud sensor characteristic.
