PURPOSE:To improve acceleration response and reduce the fuel consumption amount by setting an aimed engine speed at the engine speed for improving acceleration within a prescribed time after the opening degree of a throttle valve varies to a prescribed value or more. CONSTITUTION:A continuously variable transmission is controlled by the controller shown in the figure so that an engine speed become...

A process for the vulcanization of elastomer products which comprises the steps of heating under pressure an elastomer product mounted in a metal mould by supplying thereto a vulcanizing medium, suspending the supply of the vulcanizing medium when the elastomer product has reached a predetermined temperature or when a predetermined time period has elapsed, and subsequently supplying an inert gas e...

Wear-resistant and shock-resistant tools are constructed by preforming carbide-containing working parts of high wear resistance and hardness and attaching them to a softer base metal of the tool by means of a highly shock-resistant steel-to-steel fusion weld. The working part is preformed by powdered metallurgy techniques utilizing steel powders having carbide-forming constituents therein which fo...

When measuring colour density on the moving paper web of rotary offset printers, it is known to measure out simultaneously the measuring fields of colour-control strips, which are printed transversely with respect to the direction of movement, by means of a plurality of optical-waveguide measurement sensors which are arranged in parallel. In such printers, both lateral drifting and shrinkage of th...

Bleeder valve for a crankcase of an internal combustion engine by means of which a pressure balance can be established where an excess pressure prevails in the crankcase. In order to reduce compression losses in the cold starting phase of the internal combustion engine, up to an initial mixture firing of a fuel-air mixture in the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine the bleeder val...

A process is described for the surface lamination of self-supporting mouldings such as are used for example in the lining of specific surface regions in interiors of motor vehicles. A liquid adhesive for producing a permanent bond between the lamination material and the moulding is applied in the form of an adhesive layer of specifiable thickness onto a temporary carrier having at the most only sl...

Internal lining armor for impact crushers, particularly for impact crushers for the comminution of hard rock, is a combination of several armor plates arranged on the internal housing wall. Each armor plate is provided with at least one recess on which the head of a releasable, wear-proof pin engages, the pin passing through a corresponding opening in the housing wall and being tightly clamped on ...

Apparatus for the analysis of samples such as blood or urine includes a reaction cell for reacting the sample with a chemical reagent at a predetermined temperature. A heat exchanger is provided on the reaction cell for establishing the temperature of the cell. Reagent is pumped into the cell through a conduit, and a portion of the conduit is wound around the reaction cell in contact with the heat...
