Abstract: The invention relates to a safeguarding plant for level crossings. The individual components of a level crossing (BU), namely the setting elements (S1 to S4, L1.1 to L2.2, U1.1 to U2.2) and the sensor systems (SE1.1 to SAA2.2) are interlinked via transmitter and/or receiver devices for radiotelephony. The sensor messages are processed in controllers that are allocated to the setting elements and are converted to operating commands for the setting elements. The setting elements and the sensor systems and their corresponding controllers and transmitter and/or receiver devices for radiotelephony are preferably supplied with energy by a decentral system of solar generators. Only if supply leads for operating the setting elements and optionally the sensor systems are already available, these parts can also be centrally supplied with energy. Decentral energy supply systems can also be centrally supplied with energy. The setting elements are invariably controlled decentrally via radiotelephony. The individual setting elements can be optionally retrofitted with decentral energy supply devices without changing the control design of the safeguarding plant for the level crossing.

Abstract: The device has an intake gap (40) to receive signatures (1) from a device with a first transportation speed, and decelerate these to a first reduced speed. Gap surfaces engaging on the signatures are formed by a pair of opposite non-circular rotating components (4), which define a draw-in gap (40) to decelerate the components, and an intermediate gap, accelerating them. The signatures are moved from the intake gap to an ejection gap (50), to be decelerated to a second reduced speed. The gap surfaces are formed by two non-circular rotating components (5), which similarly decelerate and accelerate the first components.

Abstract: A system and method are set out for automating the sorting and loading of parcels (24) into a delivery vehicle. While being conveyed (19) from a customer, parcels to be delivered are scanned (104) and information obtained therefrom. The information may be the parcel identification code (106) and/or delivery address (132). The obtaining may be performed by a bar code reader, hand held (22) or overhead (20), as well as a videocoding device. The parcel information is matched to a sort code (174, 176), a unique code for a unique delivery address. A list of matched identification and sort codes (30, 32) and delivery addresses and sort codes (42) is then saved for later search, sort, and retrieval. The parcels are then loaded in sequence (18) into mobile racks (27), which when full (186), is loaded onto the delivery vehicle (188). A sequence list of the order in which the parcels were scanned is also saved for later search, sort, and retrieval (34, 35). An end user (44) enters a select list of addresses in search of possible hits from the saved lists (66, 68). A hit list (70) is generated and sorted by the order of addresses in the search list (69). Alternative sort options are also available. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A change of switch plane operation is performed in a multi-plane cell switching node ( 20 ) which has a first switch plane ( 22 ); a second switch plane ( 24 ); and plural switch port interface units ( 26 ). In response to detection of a fault in the active switch plane, the passive switch plane sends a plane change cell to the plural switch port interface units, and stops egress traffic flow from the second switch plane. Upon receiving the plane change cell, each switch port interface unit redirects traffic cells sent from the active plane to the passive switch plane. Each switch port interface unit then determines when traffic cells destined thereto have been flushed from the first switch plane, and changes its active switch plane designation (so that the formerly passive switch plane becomes the active switch plane) so that egress traffic flow can begin from the formerly passive (now active) plane to the respective switch port interface units.
