CONSTITUTION:An engine speed sensor 65 and a throttle opening sensor 62 as an idle detecting device are installed separately. Whe...

PURPOSE:To make stable clutch's on-off operations performable, by installing a device, which detects starting torque of a transmission, and also another device which detects such a control state that clutch transfer torque accords with the transmission's starting torque, and estimating the correction value of clutch learning. CONSTITUTION:With off-motion of a clutch 6, an input shaft 3a of a trans...

A vehicle transmission having an auxiliary transmission with high and low speeds connected in series with a multi-speed manual transmission and clutch to an engine wherein the auxiliary transmission normally is shifted in response to the throttle opening of the engine and the vehicle speed. A control device detects the actuation of the clutch to maintain the auxiliary transmission in the low speed...

A method and an apparatus for the radiographic recording of a patient's dentition, jaws, and skull regions invalues seating a patient in a patient chair (9) so as localize the patient in the coordinate system of the radiographic apparatus in an unequivocal position before taking the exposure for a radiograph (87). Furthermore, in accordance with the invention, the radiograph (87) is used for measu...

An apparatus for handling textile roving coils (5), with a hole at the centre, to pile them up in a container (71) for successive handlings, comprises: a rod (43) to receive, in a usually horizontal position, a coil (5) expelled from a rod (3) of the coils forming machine; a means (25) for the lift and transfer in a vertical, downwardly directed position of said rod (43) with the coil (5) being he...

A radiographic system is described which includes an X-ray source, and an x-ray detector including an x-ray sensitive surface. The x-ray sensitive surface is curved so as to eliminate differences in the lengths of the x-ray path between the source and different points on the surface.

PCT No. PCT/DE86/00321 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 1, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 1, 1987 PCT Filed Aug. 6, 1986 PCT Pub. No. WO87/00903 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 12, 1987.A magnetic valve has an actuation magnet (1), whose armature (17) serves to move a valve element (23) against the action of a valve spring (21). To increase the efficiency of the actuation magnet, the valve element (23) armature (17) are connect...

Disclosed is a process for fabricating a composite polycrystalline diamond or cubic boron nitride (CBN) compact. Briefly, the process is conducted by mating a pre-formed sintered polycrystalline diamond or CBN compact and a plastically deformable support, and subjecting the mated composite compact to elevated temperature and pressure conditions sufficient to plastically deform the support into att...

A process for the gasification of sewage sludge or other carbon-containing waste materials in a gasifier (1) is described. A solid fuel and oxygen-containing gas are also fed into said gasifier. The residues formed during gasification collect at the bottom of the gasifier in the form of molten slag. Gasification takes place in a fluidized bed (9) formed above the slag bath and constituted by the d...

A machine (10) comprises a plurality of operating stations (12) and a service device (16). Reversible drive means (M) are operable to cause relative movement of the stations and the device. A plurality of locating markers (30) are associated with respective operating stations. A signal producing device (45) is associated with the service device and responsive to these markers (30) to produce a sig...

A colorant formulation is described for mass-coloring high-melting polyesters. It comprises colorant and support for the colorant. The colorant formulation has a recrystallization exotherm of 8 to 55 joule/g between 210 DEG C. and 150 DEG C.

Organic coatings adhere better to polyester film base if the film base is first subjected to electron-beam irradiation while passing through an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen. This electron beam priming method is useful for applying such coatings to biaxially oriented polyester as magnetic tape dispersions and silicone release liner coatings.

A toe piece for safety ski-bindings, which toe piece can pivot outwardly in a sideways direction against a biasing force if excessive lateral forces occur. A supporting member (8) is connected to two side holding members (9,10) adapted to support the sole of the boot in lateral and frontal directions. The support member (8) forms the coupling means of a linkage quadrangle which can pivot laterally...

To prevent the detachment of the ski-boot in the case of ski bindings which, when released, allow the ski-boot to come free by outward pivoting of the sole fixing means, the latter are pressed into one or several recesses in the ski binding in the event of being released.

A process for the production of a grinding foam body composite, especially of a homogeneous, elastic, microcellular grinding foam body, based on a fibre fleece containing a grinding agent and on a polyurethane foam, wherein onto the fibre fleece containing a grinding agent there is superficially applied a liquid, solvent-free NCO-terminated polyurethane pre-polymer, the coated fleece is assembled ...

Shaped articles with a coherent matrix which comprises homogeneously arranged inorganic solid particles A of a size of from about 50 ANGSTROM to about 0.5 micron, such as silica dust particles, and densely packed solid particles B having a size of the order of 0.5-100 micron and being at least one order of magnitude larger than the respective particles A, such as Portland cement particles, the p...

The invention relates to apparatus for detecting the stuck point of a conduit, such as drill pipes, in a borehole while eliminating any stress on the detection means during the measurement. A two-part body member is suspended from a cable with the two parts (23 and 24) mounted movably with respect to each other. Each part is anchored independently in the drill pipes and movements between these par...
