Abstract: Supporting device for a plastic profile (2), in particular for a plastic pipe, in a calibration device which has a supporting region (1), in which it supports the plastic profile (2), wherein the contour (3) in the supporting region (1) is adapted to the contour of the plastic profile (2). According to the invention, provision is made in that the contour (3) in the supporting region (1), in particular the radius (4), can be changed. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for changing a supporting region of a supporting device, in which the position of one or more series-arranged supporting devices with continuously changeable supporting region are changed as a function of a predetermined theoretical diameter such that the predetermined diameter is produced.

Abstract: An mandrel for extrusion of hollow bodies, such as, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) hard, compact, and foamed pipes, includes an inner collar and an outer collar, and webs radially joining the inner collar and outer collar. The webs can be arranged twisted and/or offset in radial direction.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus for processing rain and/or surface water having a container for storing the water to be processed, a circulating arrangement for circulating the water to be processed in the container, a measuring arrangement for measuring the water quality of the water to be processed, and a processing arrangement for treating the water to be processed in dependence upon the water quality measured by the measuring arrangement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to at least extensively remove organic halogen compounds from water or an aqueous solution, at least one magnesium or aluminum anode (1) and at least one associated electrode (2) operating as the cathode dipping into the water. The present invention also concerns equipment with which to implement the method of the invention. Both the method of the invention and the equipment of the invention are preferentially used when disinfecting water with chlorine and in particular in swimming pools.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing of continuous, at least two-layer products having an upper layer formed of a lacquer material, the method having the steps of providing an apparatus including a co-extrusion tool having first and second conduits, respectively, with the first and second inlets, with the second conduit circumscribing the first conduit, and a merging section in which flows exiting the first and second conduits merge, and first and second extruders connected with the first and second inlets, respectively, and simultaneously injecting melts of base and lacquer materials with the first and second extruders, respectively, through the first and second conduits, respectively, so that on at least two-layer product exiting the merging section of the co-extrusion tool and having an upper lacquer layer, is produced in a single step.

Abstract: The invention concerns a measuring apparatus for checking and determining the flow shear stress of certain suspensions, principally blood, by a static or dynamic method and to thereby plot the viscosity of the suspension. The apparatus employs an internal measuring chamber comprised of a passage arrangement to simulate the natural microcirculation area wherein a network of capillary passages diverge from a main passage, with at least two of the capillary passages of different lengths, with a length ratio that can range from 3:1 to 15:1, with those capillaries connected to a source of variable pressure and extending past a detector unit.
