Abstract: A leakage indicator is provided for a filter element of a filter press, in which the filter element has at least one membrane that can be impinged by a pressure medium. In order to create a leakage indicator that is constructed in a particularly simple manner, an indicator body is freely movable in a flow chamber.

Abstract: A combined chamber and membrane filter plate includes a plate body, a plate edge being thicker than the plate body, projecting beyond the plate body and framing the plate body, a chamber side configured to form a filter chamber and a membrane side having a membrane adapted to and spaced from the plate body. The plate body has a plate surface facing the membrane and a multiplicity of parallel recesses implemented as grooves in the plate surface. The grooves decrease the thickness of the plate body and are configured to form a fluted plate surface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rim for bicycles and the like, comprising at least one braking area on at least one flank of the rim for placing a braking member, said braking area essentially consisting of fibre-reinforced plastic. The rim according to the invention is characterized in that the surface of the braking area exhibits an amount of reinforcing fibre of more than 10%.

Abstract: With a rim (1) for wheels of vehicles, comprising a rim base serving for the reception of a support (7) of a tyre (5), said rim base is formed in one piece from a rim bottom (2) and rim flanges (3) limiting said rim bottom in a lateral manner, with the rim base consisting of a fibre composite material. In order to be able to easily manufacture a rim of this type, said rim withstanding also high strains, a preferably one-piece counter support (8) formed by a core (13) is embedded in the rim base, which counter support receives the support (7) of the tyre (5) and is rigidly connected to the rim base, wherein the counter support (8) is processed in a mechanical, especially machining, manner on the surfaces which come into contact with the support (7) of the tyre (5).

Abstract: A semiconductor circuit containing a pad for electrical bonding of the semiconductor circuit and a metal arrangement disposed beneath the pad. The metal arrangement is in a metal layer of the semiconductor circuit located closest to the pad and is electrically insulated from the pad and from a strip conductor located beneath the metal arrangement. More than one metal layer can contain a metal arrangement. Each metal arrangement is a full-area plate that overlaps all edges of the pad or has a regular structure of small square plates. If adjacent metal arrangements are constructed from small plates, the plates in one metal arrangement overlap to cover gaps in the other metal arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a membrane filter press. On operation of such a press a secure generation of the necessary pressing pressure can be guaranteed with a membrane filter press that has at least one membrane filter plate, a baseplate with thickened edge region, a membrane made from an elastically-deformable material, and a filter cloth. The novel membrane has an annular edge bead which lies in a complementary groove on the baseplate. A sealing groove is formed into the baseplate which opens out into the first-mentioned groove at both ends in the manner of a bypass. A complementary sealing projection, moulded on the annular bead, engages in the sealing groove with formation of a seal. The cavity enclosed between the groove and the sealing groove is preferably provided with at least one filtrate drain bore.

Abstract: An front wall of an armored vehicle is formed with a large-diameter hole and has a tow hitch in turn having a generally cup-shaped reinforcement plate having an outer periphery engaging an inner face of the front wall around the hole. This plate is forwardly concave toward the hole and the outer periphery is welded to the inner face of the wall by a weld. A tow-eye bar fixed to the center of the reinforcement plate extends forward through the hole. The hole and plate are circular and the plate is of greater diameter than the hole.
