Abstract:
A spreading anchor (1) including an anchor rod (2) provided at its front end, when viewed in a setting direction, with a head (3, 30) having at least several regions, which taper outwardly in the setting direction, and extending through an axial through-bore of an expansion sleeve(5) axially displaceable along the anchor rod (2, 20) and having a plurality of axial longitudinal slots (7) extending from a front end of the expansion sleeve (2, 20) and forming at least two, located opposite each other expansion tabs (6) provided at their free front ends with cutters (16), the spreading anchor (1) being supported against an upper surface of a ground (G) and further including rotation-transmitting driver elements for transmitting axial rotation, which is generated during setting of the anchor rod (2, 20), to the expansion sleeve (5).
Abstract:
An anchor rod has an axially extending anchoring region including an axially extending expansion section widening in the direction the rod is inserted into a borehole in a structural component. The anchor rod is held in the borehole by a hardenable mortar compound. The mortar compound is prevented from adhering to the anchoring region. Since the mortar compound does not bond to the anchor rod, if there is relative movement between the anchor rod and the hardened mortar compound, the expansion section develops compressive force deviating from the rod axis and acting on the mortar compound, while the compound maintains composite action with the structural component, particularly in a fractured tension zone of the structural component.
Abstract:
A precision vacuum melting and casting furnace with a melting chamber containing a melting device. A casting chamber is positioned below the melting chamber. The casting chamber can be raised, lowered, and swung out to the side. The casting chamber communicates with the melting chamber through a valve chamber, which contains a vacuum valve. The valve chamber accommodates a lift platform for raising the mold up under the melting device. The casting chamber has a lifting mechanism, and the vacuum valve has an activating rod. In order to essentially simplify precise alignment of the different movable parts and to convert an existing conventional casting furnace into a furnace in accordance with the present invention, a hollow vertical shaft is attached to the valve chamber. The rod that activates the vacuum valve extends vacuum-tight through the shaft. A sleeve that guides the casting chamber is positioned at the outer surface of the shaft.
Abstract:
An electrode layer (2) formed by a transparent conductive varnish is applied to a mineral or plastic glass carrier. Afterwards, a luminescent layer (3) formed by a transparent matrix (5) provided with electroluminophors (4) incorporated therein is disposed within contours defining an image surface. Said luminescent layer (3) is dividable into several discrete partial areas. A rear silver-containing electrode layer (7) extends within the a luminescent layer (3) contours above a surface whose size is approximately equal to the size of the luminescent layer (3) but leaves a narrow edge area (8) thereof free. The structure also comprises an insulating transparent layer (9) provided with recesses (10) in the area of the rear electrode layer (7) in order to bring it into contact for voltage supply from a rear face. Said rear electrode layer (7) is brought into contact through the recesses (10) of the insulating layer (9) by means of a transparent conductive varnish contact layer (12). The inventive electroluminescent display is insulated on the rear face thereof by a rear transparent insulating layer (14).
Abstract:
The invention relates to recombinant staphylokinase polypeptides with plasminogen activator effect and to their production and use. The polypeptides are obtained by expression of DNA sequences which are free from signal-peptide-coding regions.
Abstract:
In a process for the production of tertiary carboxylic acids, especially by "Koch synthesis", the byproducts, e.g., a dimer of tripropene, are removed from the reaction mixture by azeotropic rectification with alkanediols, e.g., 1,3-butanediol, as entrainers, thus obtaining the tertiary carboxylic acids in pure form.
Abstract:
A plastic substrate is disclosed that is provided with a conductive layer wherein an electroluminescent layer is applied to a conductive layer. In order to produce the electroluminescent layer, a printing paste is used that is preferably applied by means of screen printing. The printing paste is based on a transparent, acrylate-based UV printing lacquer that is known per se. The UV printing lacquer is mixed with electroluminophores at a ratio of at least two parts by weight UV printing lacquer and three parts by weight electroluminophores. A phthalic acid emollient is added. The dielectric layer results from the application, preferably the imprinting, of a dielectric paste. Preferably, a composition is selected from the dielectric paste that is similar to that of the printing paste. Here, however, instead of the luminescent pigments, a filler is used, preferably a mixture of barium titanate and titanium dioxide. The back electrode may advantageously be produced by applying (preferably using pressure) a silver conductor paste already used for conventional electroluminescent elements.
