Abstract: A filling adapter is provided for connecting a reservoir filled with a liquid with a metering device, which filling adapter has a liquid-specific connection piece for the reservoir. A code device is provided, detectable by the metering device, at least for the liquid contained in the reservoir. The code device is provided on the filling adapter in the connection area between the filling adapter and the metering device.

Abstract: In a process for manufacturing fiber reinforced composites made or inorganic sinterable material and inorganic fibers the fibers are continuously passed through a bath which works acccording to the fluidized bed principle and which contains a solution of at least one metal alkoxide of the elements of the first to the fourth main groups of the periodic table and the forth and fifth subgroups of the periodic table, which solution already comprises products of hydrolysis and their condensation products, and the fibers moistened with the solution are wound one upon the other to form layers, the moistened and wound fibers are dried, the metal alkoxides on the fibers are completely hydrolyzed and the products of hydrolysis are polycondensated, and the layers of the fibers being adhered by the powder and the polycondensation products of the products of hydrolysis of the metal alkoxides are hot pressed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for locking the rotational movement of a steering column of a motor vehicle by means of a clamp locking mechanism with rollers (4) parallel to the axis, which rollers clamp the steering column in both rotational directions between a cylindrical track and clamping surfaces oblique to the track and are guided in a coaxial cage rotatable about the steering column. The cage can be carried along by the steering column in both rotational directions in each case into one of the two clamping positions and can be fixed in a central position located between the two clamping positions, in which central position the rollers release the steering column. All the rollers (4) are surrounded externally by at least one elastic ring (6) coaxial to the column (1), which ring elastically loads the rollers towards the steering column.
