A compressed-gas splicing chamber (42), two thread-twist changing members (44, 45), two switchable thread-unravelling devices (46, 47) for the thread ends (23', 22') not included in the spliced joint, controllable thread-holding devices, thread-guide members (49, 50) and, if appropriate, a controllable splicing-chamber cover device (48) together form a compact splicing unit (42). This includes, if...

An x-ray source for use in computerized tomographic applications focuses an electron beam (14) on an arcuate anode ring (15) to produce an x-ray beam which passes through a planar slice of the subject (20) under study. Because it is very difficult to focus and to bend an electron beam having a cross section with other than cylindrical symmetry, and because it is highly desirable that the cross sec...

A release mechanism for safety ski bindings activated by a magnetic release system (1) and movable between a cocked and a release condition. In its release condition, the mechanism releases a ski binding from a closed to an open condition. The mechanism has a holding lever (18) movable between a holding and a releasing position, with the holding lever (18) abutting a connecting lever (15) which, a...

In addition to a boot-retaining jaw unit controlled by a spring having an adjustable degree of stiffness, the safety ski binding is fitted with a force transducer for detecting the effort exerted by the spring on the jaw unit and delivering a signal which is a function of the effort thus detected to an electronic display device of the digital type. The display device is supplied via a normally-ope...

The invention relates to a jaw iron of a releasing ski binding which has two sole-holding arms which are pivotable in a basic body and are supported on a two-part slide which is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the ski counter to spring force. Provided between the slide parts is a coupling device which is releasable in dependence on the slide stroke. Provided on the slide part which i...

The safety ski binding has a detachable fastening of a ski boot (19) to the ski (20) with a front and a rear holder (30) which can be attached to the ski (20) and are equipped with an adjustable spring device (90), it being possible for the holders (30) and the ski boot (19) to be disengaged from each other when predetermined values of forces are exceeded. The spring device (90) is arranged in a f...

PURPOSE:To treat waste contg. org. material contg. halogen element and metals radionally by charging said waste into a fluidized bed decomposing furnace and fluidizing the waste in the high temp. reducing atmosphere formed in the furnace thereby decomposing org. materials thermally and absorbing the generated halogen element-contg. materials in the metals. CONSTITUTION:Waste contg. org. material c...

A powder metallurgical process for producing dense low-alloy ferrous parts having selected carburized surface portions in which a metal powder of the desired composition is briquetted into a shape-retaining preform, the preform is masked, sintered, carburized whereafter the mask is removed and the resultant preform is forged to a desired final shape. The forged part is then quenched immediately fo...

A lawn umbrella having a shade of a rectangular configuration supported by four ribs, the free end of each rib being received in a pouch at a respective corner of the shade. The other ends of two of the ribs are pivotably connected to a collar slidable on the mast, the collar being lockable in operative position by a thumb screw. The other ends of the other ribs are pivotably connected to the top ...

The tendency to blocking of polymer sheets can be reduced by means of anti-blocking agents. Suitable anti-blocking agents in transparent polyvinyl butyral sheets are especially montanic acid esters, which do not adversely affect the adhesion of the sheet to glass. The polyvinyl butyral sheets are used as interlayers of laminated glass (safety glass).

In a carcass splitting apparatus, carcass (27) is suspended by hook arrangement (28) from conveyor system (25). Indexing means (30) permits selective engagement between frame (14) and conveyor hook (28) and permits alignment of carcass (27) with the centre line of the blade (4) of the saw assembly while simultaneously drawing frame (14) along its upper and lower tracks (23) and (24). Caracass (27)...

Ceramic free metal powder is produced by forming a metal melt in container 16 from consumable arc electrode 15 and controlling the heat balance in the container so that a solidified metal skull is formed on the inside wall of the container the molten metal overflows from the container at 18 and is atomised by a gas stream at 19.
