Abstract: A towing vehicle for moving aircraft without a towing bar has a driving frame (5) with a forked receiving space formed between the wheels of an axle, in which is arranged a retractable and extendable gripping and pulling device (28, 68) that cooperates with a lifting device and that engages the nose wheel (24) of the aircraft, pulling it on a paddle (14) up and down with respect to the driving frame. A single paddle (14) is provided to support the nose wheel (24) in the proximity of the line of influence of the nose wheel load, thus preventing blocking and deforming forces from acting upon the nose wheel (24) while this is pulled or lifted. The paddle can pivot around a horizontal axis arranged on the driving frame, and its pivoting position can be controllably adjusted relative to the driving frame. In a further development, the paddle can additionally tilt at an angle to the horizontal axis, thus preventing unacceptable strains when the towing vehicle carrying the nose wheel follows a curved path. Preferably, the paddle is steered on the driving frame by means of a parallelogram or trapezoid linkage (70, 71, 73, 74).

Abstract: Computer systems and processes are disclosed for recovering a failed commit procedure. A first recovery facility collects and compares sync point state information from a variety of different types of resources including a data repository and a protected conversation. The comparison of the sync point state information is made automatically in response to a sync point failure event. A second recovery facility serving another execution environment notifies the first recovery facility after a failure and subsequent recovery procedure of the second execution environment has completed. The first recovery facility makes automatic cyclic attempts to communicate with the second recovery facility. The first recovery facility can receive a manually initiated but automatically simulated response of sync point state information when there is a failure such that actual sync point state information cannot be received. The first recovery facility is responsive to the simulated sync point state information to proceed with a recovery operation substantially as if actual sync point state information were received.

Abstract: The invention relates to the keyboard and legend lighting of an apparatus whose keyboard and legend panel must also be easily identifiable in darkness. The current which is additionally required for the illumination significantly reduces the operating times of the apparatus during battery operation. The invention thus provides for current-saving illumination by permanently illuminating a single key (5), normally used as the on/off switch of the apparatus (1). This key (5) is designed such that, if it is operated briefly, all the illumination is switched on for the time prescribed by an illumination timer and the apparatus (1) is switched off by a long key pulse. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A signalling device (14) is provided having a plurality of differently colored light modules (20-22) stacked one above the other that function properly regardless of arrangement order of the light modules (20-22) within the signalling device (14). The signalling device (14) includes a signal bus having a plurality of channels that extends through each light module (20-22). Each channel carries a unique status signal to one light module (20-22). Each light module (20-22) is connected to and identified by a different channel, thus enabling the light modules (20-22) to be arranged in any order and still function properly. One or all cover plates (30-32) on each light module(20-22)  may be removed without requiring any light module (20-22) to be removed from the signalling device (14). This feature enables both the light modules (20-22) to be serviced while retaining their color identity and the color of the cover plates (30-32) to be changed without requiring any light modules (20-22) to be removed from the signalling device (14) in either situation. The signalling device (14) is quickly assembled with dilating rivets. A data logger (18) connected to each  signalling device (14) records the changing status as indicated by each light module (20-22). All these features enable the signalling device (14) to be quickly and efficiently assembled and maintained.

Abstract: A wordline driver circuit is shown for a DRAM, the circuit comprising a PMOS transistor structure (58) having one contact coupled to a wordline (60), a second contact coupled to a negative voltage supply and a gate coupled to a control input, the transistor having an N-well (64) about the gate, first and second contacts. An isolating structure (66) is positioned about the N-well (64) to enable it to be a separately controlled from surrounding N-well structures (64). Pulse circuits (52) are coupled to the transistor (58) for applying, when activated, a potential that enables the wordline (60) to transition to a more negative potential. A bias circuit is also provided for biasing the N-well (64) at a first potential and a second lower potential, the second lower potential applied when the pulse circuits (52) are activated. As a result, body effects in the PMOS transistor (58) are minimized while at the same time enabling a boost potential to be applied to the wordline (60).
