Abstract:
An optical connector (10), in particular for outside use, for detachably connecting at least two optical cables along a connector axis (43) comprises a socket portion (11) and a plug portion (27), which portions are substantially of cylindrical design with respect to the connector axis (43), can be detachably plugged into one another along the connector axis (43) and can be locked in the plugged-in state. A locking mechanism (19, 20, 32, 33, 36, 46), which is equipped with a latch function and which latches automatically during insertion is provided for the purposes of rapid locking.
Abstract:
An oral appliance includes a frame for mounting to a user's teeth and a tongue contacting retaining member extending from the frame and configured in use to limit movement of the tongue toward the user's throat when the user is exercising or sleeping to maintain an open air passageway. The retaining member is positioned relative to the frame such that in use the retaining member contacts the tongue in a zone behind the second molars and in front of the pharyngeal reflex region of the tongue. The retaining member is further configured to lightly contact the tongue, and to apply a restraining force to the tongue as the tongue begins to move toward the user's throat during exercise or as the user falls asleep.

Abstract:
A vapor dispensing device having a high transverse loading stability includes a relatively low profile with respect to the supporting wall or electrical receptacle such that the frequency and impact of accidental physical contact with the device are appropriately reduced. To achieve a low profile, the housing of a vapor dispensing device is designed such that the distance from the outlet face of the wall receptacle to a worst-case transverse loading point (dL) is less than the distance from the plug to a worst-case support point (dS).

Abstract:
A method for selectively protecting a component made of an iron-base alloy, cobalt-base alloy or nickel-base alloy with a protective arrangement which protects select areas of the component from aluminizing or chromizing during gas diffusion coating, wherein a first layer acts as an interlayer and a second layer acts as a getter layer for reaction gases. The method comprises the steps of depositing a first layer of slip cast material comprising oxide ceramic particles carried in a low-carbon, halide free, liquid vehicle; depositing a second layer comprising metal or a metallic slip, which comprises at least 50% by weight of the base metal of the component and all major alloy constituents of the component; aluminizing or chromizing by gas diffusion coating; and removing the protective arrangement from the component.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a component of an iron, cobalt or nickel-base alloy with a protective arrangement to prevent aluminizing or chromizing during gas diffusion coating, with a first layer as an interlayer and a second layer as a getter layer for reaction gases, where the first layer is a slip casting layer composed of oxide ceramic particles carried in a low-carbon vehicle free from halide, and the second layer is a metal layer or a metallic slip casting layer. The metal layer contains at least 50% by weight of the base-metal fraction of the component and exhibits all major alloy constituents of the component. The metal layer may be a sintered metal shape.
Abstract:
A method for the powder pack coating of hollow structural components is performed with spherical powder particles of a donor metal in which the hollow component is embedded. During the embedding, the component is subjected to a tumbling motion about several spatial axes to fill all cavities in the component. After the powder pack coating process the cavities of the component are cleared of any excess powder particles under the action of a gas stream. This method is suitable especially for coating engine blades having cooling ducts and cooling air holes, such as turbine blades. The effect of the forced air flow through the internal cavities for the removal of excess powder out of the hollow component is enhanced by simultaneously vibrating the component.
Abstract:
A method for determining a clock for a sensor signal which has a synchronization signal, which method involves a control unit measuring the period between a first edge and a second edge of the synchronization signal, wherein both edges are either rising or falling, and the control unit taking the period as a basis for determining a clock for sampling data in the sensor signal.
