Abstract: A conveyor drive assembly including an elongated shaft having a first and second end and method of operating the conveyor drive assembly which reliably controls the speed of each end of the drive shaft and minimizes unequal loading of the conveyor belt. The method includes detecting the rotational position of the first end of the shaft, detecting the rotational position of the second end of the shaft, determining the rotational position of one of the first and second ends relative to the other of the first and second ends, and then rotationally driving at least one of the first and second ends of the shaft to maintain the rotational position of one of the first and second ends relative to the other of the first and second ends within a predetermined range. Advantageously, the present invention provides a conveyor drive assembly for use with wide conveyors which reliably controls the speed of each end of the drive shaft and minimizes unequal loading of the conveyor belt.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a device for adjusting the position of a rail or a track unit comprising at least one rail relative to a supporting road bed. In this case, a simple and efficient adjustment should also be possible in the banked regions of track curves. The adjusting device should furthermore remain unaffected by possible length changes of the rails such that it can also be easily removed from the concrete track plate if significant length changes occur. This is achieved in that the device consists of at least one fixing element ( 2 ) that directly engages on the rail ( 1 ) and is supported on the supporting road bed by means of at least one connecting element ( 3 ) that can be tilted about an axis extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rail ( 1 ).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for establishing feedback channels in an MBMS (multimedia broadcast/multicast service) for UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) by selectively establishing RRC connections with terminals that are capable of transmitting uplink feedback information regarding the particular MBMS service. When requesting an RRC connection, a terminal sends an RRC connection message including information related to MBMS and the UTRAN selectively establishes an RRC connection with the terminal based on the information related to MBMS. The terminal indicates whether both a point-to-multipoint radio bearer and a point-to-point radio bearer can be received and, optionally, provides terminal class information in the RRC connection request message. The UTRAN gives higher priority to those terminals that indicate the capability to receive both a point-to-multipoint radio bearer and a point-to-point radio bearer when selecting terminals with which to establish an RRC connection, thereby maximizing feedback information regarding a particular MBMS service.
