    摘要: An energy storage device having: a high-temperature regenerator containing a solid, particularly porous storage material (S); a working gas (A) as the heat transfer medium to transfer heat between the storage material (S) and the working gas (A) flowing through; and a charging circuit and a discharging circuit for the working gas (A). The charging circuit is designed such that starting from a pre-heating unit at least one first heat transfer duct of a recuperator, a first compressor (HO), the high-temperature regenerator, a second heat transfer duct of the recuperator and then a first expander are interconnected, thus forming a circuit, so as to conduct fluid. The first compressor is coupled with the first expander, and the first compressor forms part of a first piston machine (K1) and the first expander forms part of a second piston machine (K2), the piston machines (K1, K2) being operable either as a compressor or as an expander such that the first compressor of the charging circuit forms a second expander in the discharging circuit and that the first expander of the charging circuit forms a second compressor in the discharging circuit. The high-temperature regenerator can be connected to either the charging circuit or the discharging circuit to conduct fluid and can be controlled such that the high-temperature regenerator, the compressor and the expander form either part of the charging circuit or part of the discharging circuit. The charging circuit, the discharging circuit and the high-temperature regenerator have the same working gas (A) so that the working gas (A) comes into direct contact with the storage material of the high-temperature regenerator both in the charging circuit and in the discharging circuit.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for production of contacts on a wafer, preferably with the aid of a lithographic process. The preferred embodiment provides a method which overcomes the disadvantages of the complex point/hole lithography process, and which avoids any increase in the process complexity. This method is achieved in that a strip structure extending over two layers is used to structure the contacts. The strip structure in the first layer is rotated at a predetermined angle with respect to the strip structure in the second layer, and the contacts are formed in the mutually overlapping areas of the strip structures in the two layers.

    摘要: Play-free longitudinal guiding means having rails than run inside each other, namely a lower rail and an upper rail that can be displaced in a sliding manner with respect to the lower rail, for securing seats in vehicles such as private cars. The play-free longitudinal guiding means is such that the lower rail features along its length wall parts that have the shape of alignment grooves, and the upper rail features wall parts which run parallel to the wall parts of the lower rail and are shaped into an alignment groove, and the alignment grooves of the upper and lower rails face each other and form a sliding alignment channel. In the sliding channel there are sliding elements which in the free-standing condition exhibit a larger cross-section than in the installed condition, and the sliding elements guide the lower and upper rails without any play.

    摘要: A silicon dioxide layer is formed and a mask layer is deposited and then patterned to produce openings in the mask layer in the region around the gate contacts onto the gate electrode tracks in the logic region. The surface is uncovered around the gate contacts to the gate electrode tracks in the logic region, reducing the silicon dioxide layer. A sacrificial layer covering the gate electrode tracks is formed and patterned to form sacrificial layer blocks above the contact openings for the bit line contacts between the mutually adjacent gate electrode tracks in the cell array region and above the contact openings for the substrate contacts to the semiconductor surface and the gate contacts onto the gate electrode tracks in the logic region. A filling layer is formed between the sacrificial layer blocks, and the sacrificial layer blocks are removed. The contact opening regions are filled with conductive material.
