Abstract: The invention relates to a method for changing a mode of operation of a rail vehicle (98) during the transition into another operating range of the rail vehicle. According to said method, a first transmit unit (93) that is located in a transition area along a vehicle path (91) transmits a modification signal which is received by the rail vehicle (98), the mode of operation begins (96) to be changed when the modification signal is received, a positive acknowledgement signal is generated in the rail vehicle (98) if the mode of operation has been successfully changed, and a control unit (97) located along the vehicle path (91) decides whether the rail vehicle (98) is clear to continue its course by taking into account the acknowledgement signal.

Abstract: A method of rolling with a flat-shaped hole die in a 1st pass and subsequently rolling with a square-shaped hole die in a 2nd pass in a hole die rolling of two or more continuous passes. The rolling is performed with a caliber which sets the ratio of the minor axis (2A01) of a 1st pass flat to a material opposite side dimension (2A0) to A01/A0 ≤ 0.75 and the ratio of a 2nd pass vertical diagonal dimension 2As1 to the major axis 2B1 of a material after the 1st pass to As1/B1 ≤ 0.75 to introduce the large strain into the material. Thus, the effect of the distribution of strain introduced into the material in the 1st pass on the distribution of strain and the shape of the next pass is made clear so that the large strain can be introduced into the entire cross sectional area of the material, particularly at the center of the material.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method efficiently manage reverse link communication in a communication system having geographically distributed base stations. A base station functioning to at least one mobile station as a non-serving active base station estimates an expected coupled load due to the at least one mobile based on a previous total coupled load. The base station determines a total available capacity based on the difference between the total capacity of the base station and the estimated expected coupled load. The base station allocates reverse link resources to other mobile stations served by the base station so as not to exceed the total available capacity. Since the allocation of reverse link channels resources are controlled directly by the base station, delays due to communications with a central controller arc eliminated. As a result, adverse effects of load scheduling based on obsolete reverse channel information are minimized.

Abstract: In a counterweight attaching and detaching apparatus for a crane, the length of a suspension member (34) is adjusted by an extendable member (36) and links (37,38) because the distance provided between the peak of a gantry (11) and an upper surface of each of weights (26-29) when the gantry is suspending the weight at a respective mounting position varies depending on the mounting position. In order to complement the adjustment of the length, different amounts of protrusion (B1-B4) of rings (30-33) from the upper surfaces of the weights are set so that the protrusion amount in the forefront weight is the largest and the protrusion amount in the rearmost weight is the smallest. This reduces the number of types of necessary links used in the suspension member to attach and detach the weights, and the number of operations of connecting and removing the links, and improves operation efficiency.
