select zylinder.*,
  auftrag.a_typ
  (select a_t_definition_d from auftrags_typ where a_t_code = auftrag.a_typ)
from zylinder, auftrag
where auftrag.a_nr = zylinder.z_a_nr;

or, using 7.1, maybe something like

select zylinder.*, auftrag.a_typ, auftrags_typ.a_t_definition
from (zylinder join auftrag on a_nr = z_a_nr)
  left join auftrags_typ on a_t_code = a_typ

Other variations are possible, depending on the referential contraints you
have between the tables.
