Belt conveyor for bulk material

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A belt conveyor for bulk materials includes idlers or garlands with trough-shaped sets of rollers to carry the upper and lower spans of an endless belt. To avoid off-track running of the belt due to transversely acting forces such as wind or off-center loading of material, at least some of the garlands supporting the upper span or top run of the belt are coupled together in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor so that they can be jointly set to a desired camber. This makes it possible to easily adjust the conveyor due to changes in the slope or the conveying direction. At least some of the garlands supporting the lower span or return run of the belt may also be coupled together in the longitudinal direction so that a desired camber can easily be set. The garlands can be adjusted from a readily accessible location even if the conveyor is running.

The invention relates to determining a jitter property of a signal with a repetitive bit sequence of a plurality of bits, comprising: a) setting a sample point at a first sampling position (102, 104, 106) relative to a first transition within the bit pattern, b) taking samples at the set sample point for a plurality of repetitions of the pattern c) comparing each sample with a threshold, assigning a digital value to each comparison result (S3), and determining a distribution value on the base of the sum of the assigned digital values, d) shifting the sample point by a time increment (S4), e) iteratively repeating steps a) to d) until the sample point has reached a second sampling position, f) determining from the distribution values a distribution function over the sample points, and g) determining the jitter property by using the distribution function.

System for measuring the mean arterial pressure

The present invention relates in particular to the field of anesthesia and to a method for real-time evaluation of the mean arterial pressure of a patient from plethysmography measurements. It also relates to a method for treating a patient comprising by continuously evaluating the mean arterial pressure of the patient, based on values continuously calculated by plethysmography.

Fluid operated coupling release system for a friction coupling

Die Erfindung betrifft ein fluidbetätigbares Kupplungsausrücksystem (1) für eine Reibungskupplung (2), insbesondere für ein Kraftfahrzeug, das einen mit Druckfluid beaufschlagbaren Betätigungszylinder (3) aufweist, in dem ein ein Kupplungselement (4, 5) axial bewegender Kolben (6) verschieblich angeordnet ist, wobei das Kupplungselement (4, 5) konzentrisch zu einer Welle (7) angeordnet ist und wobei der Betätigungszylinder (3) und der Kolben (6) einen Druckraum (8) einschließen, der von einer Fluidversorgungsleitung (9, 10) mit Druckfluid versorgt wird. Um den Bauraum des Kupplungsausrücksystems kompakter zu gestalten, ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass sich die Fluidversorgungsleitung (9, 10) zumindest teilweise axial durch die Welle (7) erstreckt. The invention relates to a fluid actuable clutch release system (1) for a friction clutch (2), in particular for a motor vehicle, which has an actuating cylinder (3) which can be acted upon by pressurized fluid and in which a piston (6) which moves axially a coupling element (4, 5) is displaceably arranged is, wherein the coupling element (4, 5) is arranged concentrically to a shaft (7) and wherein the actuating cylinder (3) and the piston (6) include a pressure chamber (8) of a fluid supply line (9, 10) with pressurized fluid is supplied. In order to make the installation space of the clutch release system more compact, it is provided according to the invention that the fluid supply line (9, 10) extends at least partially axially through the shaft (7).

Process to reduce the programming efforts of a programmable logic controller with a central-unit and an operating device

A control code set (7) for a central unit (3) in a control (1) able to have stored programs can be modified. A linked operating device (4) carries out diagnosis (13) on causes of error after an error message (10). Supplementary information on the control code set deposited in the central unit can be read out by the linked operating device in the event of an error message in order to detect the cause of the error.
