A brake system intended for automotive vehicles provided with a brake pressure transmitter (1) which is linked to the wheel brakes through pressure medium lines, and with sensors (19 to 22, 24) which are responsive to the brake pressure or to the behavior of rotation of the wheels and by means of which the braking effect at the wheels brakes is detectable. Furthermore, separating valves (SO1, SO2,...

A lighting device for apparatus detecting flaws in objects having a photoelectric sensor aligned with the object and a processor responsive to the sensor for determining the light received by the sensor. The lighting device includes a ring-shaped lamp and an opaque shield having predetermined light paths controlling the direction of the light from the lamp in a selected direction, so that the ligh...

When brewers' yeast is treated with oxygen, the rate at which it takes up oxygen increases until a maximum take-up rate is reached. The yeast is then fully oxygenated. In a method of fermenting wort for the production of beer, wort that contains little or no oxygen is pitched with fully oxygenated yeast to enable fermentation to occur. The process leads to improved consistency as the outcome of th...

1. An industrial truck (1) comprising drive means for high speeds in both directions of travel and control means (25), which comprise a micro-computer (38) as a comparator and are coupled by a sensor (4, 8, 15) to a lane-defining guiding element (6, 7) and by means of a steering-angle controller (27, 34) adjusts a steering angle of steered wheels (5, 12, 13, 28) in accordance with a curved path, w...

The addition of a small amount of a halogen compound, e.g. chloroethyl phosphate, in a process producing elastomeric polyurethane RIM parts using tertiary amines as the chief catalyst component results in scavenging the residual amines after the part has been cured by annealing. The parts from such a process can be coated with a wide variety of enamels having a high solids content and completely c...

Process for the gasification of fossil fuels and the reforming of a gaseous fuel in order to manufacture a gas containing chiefly H2 + CO whose content of H2O + CO2 is lower than 10% and whose hydrogen content can be raised above that which corresponds to the composition of the fuel. An oxidising agent and a fuel are injected into a reaction chamber 2 while external energy is supplied by at least ...

A new polymer composition comprises an aromatic polyetherketone or mixture thereof containing the repeating units -O-Ph-O-Ph-CO-Ph-I and -O-Ph-Ph-O-Ph-CO-Ph-II (where Ph is phenylene) in the relative molar proportions I:II of 95:5 to 60:40 and 5-80% w/w of a fibrous reinforcing agent. It is suitable for producing shaped articles of high damage tolerance by hot fabrication followed by slow cooling.

A two-fluid nozzle for atomising a liquid-solid slurry comprises a first conduit (12) through which an atomizing gas flows and a second conduit (20) located within the first conduit. The liquid-solid slurry to be atomized flows through the second conduit (20). The first conduit (12) has a reduced portion which causes an increased in velocity of the gas passing therethrough. This reduced portion te...

An apparatus for atomization of high temperature melts to from very finely divided powder. The apparatus has a ceramic central melt delivery tube. Melt is introduced at the top and exits at the bottom. At the exit surface a high velocity gas impinges on the melt to atomize the melt into fine particles.
