Abstract: A laser processing method by which an object to be processed can be cut with a high precision is provided. The laser processing method of the present invention irradiates a planar object to be processed 1 with laser light L while locating a light-converging point P within the object 1. Initially, a first modified region 71 to become a start point for cutting is formed along a first line to cut 5a in the object 1. Subsequently, along a second line to cut 5b intersecting the line to cut 5a, a second modified region 72 to become a start point for cutting is formed so as to intersect at least a part of the modified region 71. Then, a fourth modified region 73 to become a start point for cutting is formed along the line to cut 5b. Thereafter, between the modified region 71 and an entrance face 1a of the object 1 where the laser light L is incident, a third modified region 74 to become a start point for cutting is formed along the line to cut 5a so as to intersect at least a part of the modified region 73.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for separating particles using ultrasonic standing waves which are switched between two different frequencies. A second order harmonic standing wave is used together with the fundamental standing wave. If the particles are exposed to the fundamental standing wave, the forces act to collect particles at the center. If the particles are exposed to the second order harmonic standing wave, the forces act to collect particles at the two pressure nodes at the sides. By switching the frequency between the second order harmonic standing wave and the fundamental standing wave, particles with different properties will be exposed to different accelerations and are separated into two streams.

Abstract: A wireless terminal using OFDM signaling supporting both terrestrial and satellite base station connectivity operates using conventional access probe signaling in a first mode of operation to establish a timing synchronized wireless link with a terrestrial base station. In a second mode of operation, used to establish a timing synchronized wireless link with a satellite base station, a slightly modified access protocol is employed. The round trip signaling time and timing ambiguity between a wireless terminal and a satellite base station is substantially greater than with a terrestrial base station. The modified access protocol uses coding of access probe signals to uniquely identify a superslot index within a beaconslot. The modified protocol uses multiple access probes with different timing offsets to further resolve timing ambiguity and allows the satellite base station access monitoring interval to remain small in duration. Terrestrial base station location/connection information is used to estimate initial timing.

Abstract: A new gathering and stitching machine (10) and a new method for operating a gathering and stitching machine (1) are proposed, which make it possible to drive in the staples (K) in a positionally correct manner and to close them satisfactorily even in the case of relatively short staple setting times. This is achieved by the novel control of the position of the staple heads (20) and the saddle-shaped supports (2, 30, 40, 50) in the region of the interaction during stapling. It is an essential feature of the present invention that the staple head (20) and the support (2, 30, 40, 50) are pivoted towards one another in such a way that they come to lie within a common stapling plane (H). This means that the saddle plane which is defined by the pivoting axis (S) of the saddle-shaped support (2, 30, 40, 50) and the support edge (13) and the staple-head plane which is defined by the pivoting axis of the staple head (20) and the ram tip are superimposed on one another in the region of the interaction and for the duration of the interaction and define what is known as the stapling plane (H). Here, the stapling plane (H) is pivoted continuously, with the result that it stands orthogonally on the main conveying plane (X) only in a central position.

Abstract: In an internal combustion engine which is designed for operation with a plurality of fuels, the entire fuel supply from at least two tanks for fuels having different flow properties is controlled in a single valve control block. One of the fuels can be used without problems only at higher temperatures than the other one and therefore has to be heated first of all. The valve control block is arranged firstly close to the engine block of the internal combustion engine and secondly in the vicinity of a heat exchanger. As a result of the compact design, the ease of both maintenance and installation of the fuel supply system is improved and the fuel which is to be heated can be heated more rapidly.
