Patent number: 6098978Abstract: A resistance device for use in an exercising apparatus having a plurality of resistance elements, a force transmission device and a resistance adjusting device. Through the force transmission device, a user can apply an exercise force to the resistance elements which in general provide a resisting force derived from atmospheric pressure. For adjusting the total resistance, the user may operate the resistance adjusting device to determine which resistance element(s) is(are) enabled to adjust the level of resisting force.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 1999Date of Patent: August 8, 2000Assignee: Giesecke & Devrient GmbHInventors: Detlef Bielefeld, Ulrich Mylaeus, Bernhard Kistner, Wilhelm Hell

Patent number: 5468431Abstract: A method for preparing a mixture of plastics that are incompatible in view of processing in a shaping process, such as by extrusion, characterized by providing an initial mixture of a first part which is essentially composed of uniform material in view of a group of chemical substances, and a second part, separating the first part from the second part, processing the second part to enlarge or modify the surfaces of the constituents of the second part, then recombining the first and second parts into a final mixture, with the second part being essentially uniformly distributed in the first part of the mixture so that an essentially uniform product will occur when processing the mixture in a shaping process. The invention is also directed to a mixture manufactured by this method.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 1992Date of Patent: November 21, 1995Assignee: Wilhelm HellingInventor: Wilhelm Helling
