The method is used to produce holes in sinter metals in connection with plastic deformation such as swaging or forging or in combination with pressing and is of special advantage when long holes with, compared to the length, a small diameter or irregular cavities shall be produced. When making holes, one in the sinter metal inserted core of a brittle material like glass or porous ceramic material ...

Jig for grinding sharp-edged tools. The jig consists of a housing (1) in the form of a casing designed with a passage running through it whose at least one end (10) is flat, plus a seat (2), also in the form of a casing designed with a passage running through it, located in the passage of the housing and lockable (6) in this housing in an inclined position in relation to the passage in the housing...

The present invention provides methods and compositions for the reduction of the corrosion rate of already corroding steel reinforcements embedded in a hardened concrete structure as well as for the protective corrosion inhibition of uncorroded steel reinforcements embedded in a hardened concrete structure exposed to aggressive environments. The inventive new compositions employed for the novel me...

Ultraviolet (UV) treatment for aqueous liquids such as water or biological fluids. In particular, the present invention involves the treatment of an aqueous liquid with UV light in which the liquid flows at ambient pressure and under the force of gravity during UV treatment. A process is described which includes passing the liquid by force of gravity through a treatment area and exposing the upper...

The invention relates to a terminal (A), which comprises at least one network interface card (NIC1, NIC2, NIC3) for setting up a data transmission connection to a communication network (NW1, NW2, NW3, MNW) for packet switched data transmission, and means (PD) for forming packets of the information to be transmitted and for unpacking information from the received packets. The terminal (A) is alloca...

The present invention relates to communication systems and in particular relates to the time alignment of uplink CDMA signals. A simple approach for improving the performance of received CDMA signals is discussed. This consists of aligning the timings of users' signals such that the maximum output power from a single rake finger for each user occurs simultaneously. This allows the timing to be adj...

The fitting (1) is made from sheet metal and contains an integral fastener section (5) for securing to a support console, and an integral grip section (6) for engaging with and at least partially enclosing tubes or rods in a snow rail gate. Holes (7, 7``) for screws are provided in the fastener section. The grip section is twisted (11) in relation to the fastener section in order to ensure good gr...
