Abstract: A filtering device, in particular for fish basins, has a housing (10) encompassing a filter chamber (20) and a filter drum (30), which is rotatably disposed in the filter chamber (20) and is loadable with water to be purified, about which a filter belt (40) is guided along part of its circumference from a dispensing roller (42) to a receiving roller (41) that is driven by a paddle wheel (5) disposed outside the filter chamber (20). The paddles (51) of the filter wheel are activated by unpurified water in such a way that the filter belt (40) is wound from the dispensing roller (42) onto the receiving roller (41). As the filter belt that loops around the filter drum becomes increasingly dirty and the water level in the filter chamber rises as a result, the unpurified water that is delivered by a pump flows over an overflow onto the paddle wheel as a mechanical drive means and places a receiving roller for the dirty filter belt into rotation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel, non-secosteroidal, phenyl-benzothiophene compounds with vitamin D receptor (VDR) modulating activity that are less hypercalcemic than 1?,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3. These compounds are useful for treating bone disease and psoriasis.

Abstract: In an apparatus for inspecting small articles, such as in particular tablets, for obtaining a precise lining up of the articles there is a rotationally symmetrical separating body (4) rotatable about a vertical rotation axis (A), which has a substantially conical feed section (6) and a section (7, 8) for orienting and/or separating the articles (G) surrounded by a ring slot (S) at least corresponding to the thickness of the articles (G). The separating section (8) is subdivided into individual shafts (11) for receiving the articles (G) by ribs (9) circumferentially succeeding one another with a spacing at least corresponding to the width or diameter of the articles (G).

Abstract: The invention is a method and an apparatus for inspecting small articles.
