Abstract:
The present invention relates to an exhaust gas treatment device for an exhaust system of a combustion engine, more preferably of a motor vehicle, with a housing comprising a jacket and an outlet funnel, and with at least one exhaust gas treatment element which is arranged in the jacket and is axially supported on the housing via a support ring.A simplified construction is obtained if the outlet funnel comprises an outer funnel connected to the jacket in a fixed manner and an inner funnel, which at an inner end facing the jacket carries the support ring, between inner funnel and outer funnel an insulation space is formed, which envelopes the inner funnel in circumferential direction, and if the inner end of the inner funnel contacts an inner end of the outer funnel facing the jacket.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a plug connector (1) for printed circuit boards (70), comprising a number of contact elements (30), where the contact elements (30) each have two connection ends, where one connection end is in the form of an insulation displacement contact (31) for connecting wires and the other connection end is in the form of a tuning fork contact (32) for making contact with pads on a printed circuit board (70), and a plastic housing into which the insulation displacement contacts (31) of the contact elements (30) can be inserted, where at least one lower edge (40) of the insulation displacement contact (31) is supported on the plastic housing, so that the contact elements (30) are held captively in the plastic housing when connection forces act on the insulation displacement contacts (31), the plastic housing comprising at least one chamber-like region, and the tuning fork contacts (32) being fully accommodated in the longitudinal direction by the plastic housing, where the contact element (30) is of two-part design, with a first portion (30a) of the contact element (30) comprising the insulation displacement contact (31) and the second portion (30b) comprising the tuning fork contact (32), a respective contact limb (34, 35) being arranged on the two portions (30a, 30b) of the contact element (30), with the two contact limbs (34, 35) forming an isolating contact (36).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a tool for connecting cable cores, in particular of insulated telecommunication and data cables, to an insulation-piercing contact element, with a ram, which is formed with a ram head, by means of which the cable cores can be pressed into the insulation-piercing contact, the ram head being shaped in such a way that at least two cable cores can be pressed in simultaneously into at least two insulation-piercing contact elements lying next to each other.
Abstract:
A device for applying free-flowing material to a movable substrate (1), especially for intermittent application of liquid adhesive. At least one supply channel (46) feeds free-flowing material and at least one nozzle unit (8) with at least one output channel is connected with the supply channel (46) and ends in an output orifice for delivering material. A valve mechanism interrupts the flow of material and includes a movable valve body (14) and a valve seat (44). The valve body (14) interacts with the valve seat (44) in such a way that the flow of material is interrupted by movement of the valve body (14) to a closed position and released by movement into an open position. The valve body (14) comes into contact with the valve seat (44) to interrupt the flow of material through a movement contrary to the direction of flow of the material.
Abstract:
A procedure and apparatus for the application of carbon layers using reactive magnetron sputtering is described. The process includes sputtering of at least two targets made of carbon in a reactive atmosphere with a pulsed energy feed. During a pattern period of the pulses all targets (magnetrons) are once switched on as an anode and at least one target is switched as an anode at all times Various embodiments include detection and limitation of the "microarcs"; executing of regeneration processes according to fixed predetermined time intervals for at least 5 seconds. In one embodiment a microarc is detected on a magnetron and if a next pulse-off time is more than a selected time period away, then the magnetron is connected to a positive pole of the power supply. In another embodiment of the invention a pulsed negative voltage is applied to a substrate being sputtered by connecting the substrate to a negative pole of a pulsed power supply having a positive pole connected to a positive pole of a power supply for a magnetron. In another embodiment of the invention there is an electrode insulated from an installation mass which is connected to at least one positive pole of a power supply during the periodic pausing sputtering of substrates for regeneration.
Abstract:
A termination device for telecommunication and data transmission applications, comprising a carrier rail, a base element with a receiving opening and functional modules. Various termination tasks can be solved by the base element being latched or onto or held by the carrier rail. Receiving portions for a termination element for incoming cables and for a termination element for outgoing cables are provided in the base element. A functional module is disposed between the two termination elements.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of dimethyl N-lauroyl-L-glutamate by reaction of N-lauroyl-L-glutamic acid with methanol in the presence of trimethyl orthoformate.
Abstract:
A multilayer material for sliding surface bearings comprises a metal backing layer, a sintered porous bearing layer of a bearing metal, and a low-friction layer consisting of a mixture of PTFE and 5 to 30% by volume metal filler, and fills also the pores of the bearing layer. To reduce the wear the mixture of PTFE and metal filler contains also 5 to 40% by volume PVDF.
Abstract:
Collision-protection devices for vehicle passengers, are disclosed which include a gas cushion which is connected to a gas generator and inflates under sensor control in the event of an accident and hence protects the body of a vehicle passenger from a collision causing injury, e.g., against the instrument panel or windscreen. The gas cushion has, in this instance, one or more escape openings. According to the invention, the escape opening points towards an open cover flap when the gas cushion is inflated, which cover flap, in the closed state, covers the folded-up gas cushion. Only once a predetermined pressure has been exceeded does the cover flap free the escape opening to enable gas to be discharged in an escape flow distributed over an area of the gas cushion surface.
