Abstract: Des colis (102) à emballer, peser et étiqueter sont introduits, depuis la position d'un opérateur (150), dans un poste d'entrée (104) d'une machine d'emballage et de pesée (100). Ces colis sont automatiquement emballés et renvoyés vers une balance (136) positionnée au-dessus du poste d'entrée au niveau de la position de l'opérateur, où sont pesés les colis et où est imprimée une étiquette (158) de manière adjacente à la balance et à portée de l'opérateur. L'étiquette (158) est ensuite manuellement appliquée par l'opérateur tandis que le colis emballé et pesé est retiré de la balance. Cette dernière se trouvant à portée de l'opérateur, les colis qui sont trop volumineux pour être emballés par la machine, ou bien dont on doit recalculer le prix à la suite d'une baisse de tarif ou similaire, peuvent être manuellement pesés et étiquetés ou réétiquetés depuis la position de l'opérateur.

Abstract: A communication system is described comprising different buses (20, 46, 56) which are interconnected via one or more gate connecting elements (20, 50). There is a transmitter station transmitting a frame that comprises a target address field and one or more destination address fields. If the send and receiver stations (46, 48, 52, 54) are connected to the same bus, the contents of the target address field are sufficient to define the receiver station. In other cases the target address field defines a gate connecting element, whereas the latter fills the the target address field with the contents of one of the other fields. In this way receiver station addresses, which have already been defined on a previous bus, can again be used on the next bus. Furthermore, in a short-frame format, receiver stations on the same bus as the transmitter station can be addressed with very low overhead.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for reducing the effects of draft tube pressure fluctuations acting on a runner in a hydraulic reaction turbine (21) or the effects of suction tube pre-­rotation acting on the impeller in a centrifugal pump. A closed surge suppression chamber (29) is mounted about the exterior of the turbine draft tube (22) or pump suction tube. A plurality of openings (35) are provided about the exterior of the draft tube or pump suction tube communicating with both the interior of the draft tube or pump suction tube and the interior of the chamber near its bottom thereof. An air inlet is provided leading into the chamber at the top thereof. In operation, and during operation of the turbine or pump where a rotating helical vortex of water has formed in the draft tube (22) or pump suction tube, water flows from the draft tube or pump suction tube through the openings and into the bottom of the chamber while air is injected into the top of the chamber. This forms an air bubble in the chamber and forces air through the openings into contact with the lower pressure center of the vortex as it rotates in the draft tube or pump suction tube abating the same. 
     This chamber also provides an air cushion to attenuate pressure surges which may be provided as the helical vortex rotates through the elbow in a hydraulic reaction turbine draft tube or pump suction tube, and it also provides an air cushion when the water vapor bubbles in the core of the vortex collapse.

Abstract: A rotary fluid pressure device is provided of the type including a housing portion (13), a gerotor gear set (15), and an endcap member (17). The gerotor gear set includes an internally-toothed ring member (19) and an externally-toothed star member (23) which orbits and rotates within the ring member. The star includes an end surface (24) disposed adjacent a stationary valve member (65), and another end surface (26) disposed adjacent the shaft housing. The star (23) defines high pressure ports (93) and low-pressure ports (95) which engage in commutating fluid communication with valve passages (83) defined by the stationary valve member. The star (23) defines passages (101) and (103) which communicate with the fluid ports (93) and (95), respectively, and feed high pressure to a fluid chamber (113) having a transverse area (B). Seated against the stationary valve member (65), and disposed within the endcap (17) is a pair of O-ring seals (117) and (119) which cooperate with adjacent surfaces to define a pressurized region (121) which is in communication with whichever of the ports (37) or (39) is at higher pressure. The region (121) has a transverse area (A), the area (A) being equal to or greater than the area (B). Pressurized fluid in both the fluid chamber (113) and pressurized region (121) biases the star (23) into sealing engagement with the stationary valve plate (65) to prevent cross-port leakage, while at the same time, maintaining a sufficiently small end clearance between the end surface (26) of the star and the adjacent wear surface (111) to substantially eliminate leakage from the volume chambers to the case drain.

Abstract: The fitting has a valve (18) for cold water and a valve for (sic) (20) for hot water. Arranged fixedly on the closure part (38) interacting with the valve seat (42) is the auxiliary valve seat (56) of the relevant auxiliary valve (52, 54). The closure element (58) can be displaced in the direction of the axis (30) from the idle position shown into the desired limiting position by displacement of the control pin (82) in the direction of the axis (78') and by rotation of the same about the axis (78'). The auxiliary valves (52, 54) are thereby opened which leads to a pressure drop in the pilot control space (40). The closure parts (38) are lifted from the valve seats (42), by which means the water can flow from the inlet (22, 22') into the outlet (48, 48'). When the valve (18, 29) is opened, the gap between the O-ring (66) and the auxiliary valve seat (56) thus becomes smaller. This results in a pressure balancing occurring between the pilot control space (40) and the other side of the closure part (38). The quantity of water flowing through a valve (18, 20) is thus determined by the limiting position of the closure element (58). The fitting thus no longer requires a mixing valve, the temperature of the mixed water flowing out through the water outlet head (28) is determined by the quantity of cold and hot water released by the valves (18, 20).
