Abstract:
An electronic transaction, in which a payment amount is deducted from a customer account and added to a provider account, is prepared in cooperation between an account computer and a browser-enabled customer computer. The account computer forwards invoice and credit information as well as calculation instructions in portions of a page to the customer computer. The customer computer interprets a first page portion with a browser to present different invoice items and credit items on a screen. A user selection of the invoice and credit items is received and then the payment amount is calculated by offsetting the amounts of the invoice and credit items with instructions in a second page portion. Thereafter, a response with the payment amount is returned to the account computer.
Abstract:
An arrangement with a height-adjustable component includes an approximately vertically extending upright which bears the component, the upright including a pneumatic spring. The pneumatic spring has a cylinder having a bottom end connected to a fixed part of the arrangement. A piston displaceably arranged in the cylinder subdivides the cylinder into a bottom cylinder chamber and a top cylinder chamber and has a piston rod at one end. The piston rod projects through the top cylinder chamber and is guided out of the top end of the cylinder and bears the component at its free end. The top and bottom cylinder chambers are filled with a gas filling, under positive pressure, which subjects the piston to an upwardly directed push-out force corresponding approximately to the opposing weight-induced force of the component. A valve allows a gas flow from the top into the bottom cylinder chamber and blocks the same in the opposite flow direction. A manually actuable connecting valve selectively connects the bottom and the top chambers.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for adjusting the selecting out of winnowings in the manufacture of smokable products, in particular cigarettes, wherein the current size distribution of a stream of tobacco particles passing a measuring point, per unit of time, is detected and compared with a settable nominal size distribution, and wherein an arrangement for separating the winnowings is continually adjusted, depending on the result of said comparison, and to a corresponding device comprising a sensor for detecting the current size distribution, an arrangement for inputting a nominal size distribution, an arrangement for comparing said current size distribution with said settable nominal size distribution, and lastly an adjusting arrangement for setting the arrangement for separating the winnowings, depending on the output signal of said comparing arrangement.
Abstract:
In the method for manufacturing a cable (CA1), the individual leads (AD1 through ADn) are supplied to a stranding apparatus (RE, RA) that produces a stranded bundle (SB1), whereby the material (MMA1) for the cable cladding (MA1) is applied onto the stranded bundle (SB1) produced in this way with an extruder head (EK1), and the stranding point for the stranding lies in the region of the extruder head (EK1). The individual leads (AD1 through ADn) are already brought into contact with the material (MMA1) for the cable cladding (MA1) when or before they have just been completely stranded to form the stranded bundle (SB1).
Abstract:
Use of substituted isoquinolinones, isoquinolinediones, isoquinolinetriones and dihydroisoquinolinones of the general formula (I) or their respective salts where the radicals in the general formula (I) correspond to the definitions given in the description, for enhancing stress tolerance in plants to abiotic stress, for strengthening plant growth and/or for increasing plant yield, and selected processes for preparing the compounds mentioned above.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a traction rod (1) for bracing a crane jib, comprising a metallic tubular body (2) and coupling elements (3) which are connected to both ends thereof for an articulated connection of the traction rods among each other by means of bolts (5). According to the invention, the tubular body and the coupling elements consist of a one-piece tube portion, wherein the coupling elements are designed in each case as a thicker zone of the wall of the ends of the tubular body and are dimensioned in such a manner that a weakening of the cross section of the nominal wall thickness of the coupling elements, which has to be considered for calculating the load capacity of the tubular body, is prevented in the region of the bolt connection and the transition regions (7) from the respective thicker zones of the wall in the direction of the tubular body have a transition free of starting points for increasing fatigue strength.
Abstract:
The invention relates to substituted 5-(cyclohex-2-en-1-yl)penta-2,4-dienes and 5-(cyclohex-2-en-1-yl)pent-2-en-4-ines of the formula (I) and their salts where the radicals R1, R2, R3, R4, [X—Y] and Q are each as defined in the description, to processes for preparation thereof and to the use thereof for enhancing stress tolerance in plants with respect to abiotic stress, and/or for increasing plant yield.
Abstract:
The invention relates to substituted vinyl- and alkynylcyclohexenols of the general formula (I) and salts thereof where the R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, [X—Y] and Q radicals are each as defined in the description, to processes for preparation thereof and to the use thereof for enhancing stress tolerance in plants with respect to abiotic stress, and/or for increasing plant yield.
Abstract:
Use of substituted spirocyclic sulfonamidocarboxylic acids, -carboxylic esters, -carboxamides and -carbonitriles or salts thereof for enhancement of stress tolerance in plants.The invention relates to the use of spirocyclic sulfonamidocarboxylic acids, -carboxylic esters, -carboxamides and -carbonitriles or salts thereof of the formula (I) in which the respective substituents have the meanings given in the description, for increasing stress tolerance in plants with respect to abiotic stress, and also for increasing plant growth and/or for increasing plant yield.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a truck mixer with at least one extension chute which for transport can be received on a holding means in a locked manner, wherein the holding means can be swiveled rotatorily and/or translatorily between a transport position and a removal position.
