Abstract: According to invention there is now provided a method of machining and shaping a through opening in a fibre reinforced composite material starting from a preformed hole. At least one rotation symmetrical milling body (3) with substantially smaller diameter than that of the preformed hole (2) is placed in it and the opening is machined and shaped by the milling body partly rotating around its own axis, partly performing a translational movement relatively the edge of the opening. According to the method the fibre reinforced material is hereby oriented in such a way that the axis of rotation of the milling body (3) is essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fibres at the edge of the opening. The size and/or form of the finished opening differ significantly from that of the preformed hole. The radial spread of the damages and/or the defects define a lower limit for amount of material removed.

Abstract: The idle speed control device according to the present invention controls a two-solenoid rotary type idle speed control valve properly even when one of the solenoids fails. When one of the solenoids fails, the device calculates the amount of bypass air from the amount of inlet air and the degree of opening of the throttle valve, and estimates the degree of opening of the idle speed control valve. If the degree of opening of the bypass valve is larger than that of the neutral valve position, the device sets the duty ratio of the control signal for driving the idle speed control valve at 0 %, and if the degree of opening of the idle speed control valve is less than that of the neutral valve position, the device sets the duty ratio of the control signal at 100 %. By this control, the two-solenoid rotary type idle speed control valve is maintained at neutral valve position without determining the type of the failure of the solenoids precisely.

Abstract: An automated storage and retrieval system includes an accessor device (18) to magnetically hold a stored item while the item is transported within the system. To sense the presence of a magnetically attractable label on the item, the device generates a pulsed signal having a first strength. The reluctance of the magnetic field is compared with a base value; if the comparison indicates that a label is present, the device generates another pulsed signal having a greater strength to "lock" the item against the accessor. The device then generates another pulsed signal having a reduced strength to maintain and hold the item against the accessor during transportation. Less power is used and, therefore, less heat generated.

Abstract: A method for maintaining mailpiece integrity in a mailing system when a mechanical module experiences an error. For one category of errors, the mailing system may automatically recover from the error without operator intervention. For the remaining category of errors, the mailing system may recover from the error with minimum operator intervention, that is, the operator may be required to only remove the error producing mailpiece. A motion control processor for an error producing mechanical module will report a fault to its corresponding mailpiece builder task (30) and the error detector task. Movement of at least the error producing mailpiece shall stop. The fault will be reported to the mailpiece builder tasks (30) corresponding to the mechanical modules having no error condition. The mailing system shall suspend further processing of mailpieces upstream from the error producing mailpiece. For one category of errors, the mailing system will purge the error producing mailpiece from the error producing module without operator intervention. For the remaining category of errors, the operator will be required to remove at least the error producing mailpiece. State machines (24) are then selected to perform system wide job recovery.

Abstract: The method synchronises pulse frames in the digital transmission of information from a first part of a telecommunications system to a second part. The telecommunications system is made up of several partial systems connected together which are preferably at different locations. In the first part, a first time difference (delta t1) between the frame sync. pulse (FR1) of the first part and the frame sync. pulse (FR2) received from the second part is determined and transmitted to the second part. In the second part, a second time difference (delta t2) between the frame sync. pulse (FR2) of the second part and the frame sync. pulse (FR1) received from the first part is determined. The time taken for the signal to get from the first to the second part is determined from the sum of the first time difference and the second time difference. Finally the frame synchronisation pulse of the second system part is delayed by a time which is equal to the difference between the first time difference and the signal cycle time (delta T).

Abstract: The apparatus includes a chamber (10,31A,58,84) having a first wall (16,64) closer to the rotational axis (14,62) than a second wall (18,66). The first and second walls (16,64;18,66) define respectively low-G and high-G sides of a separation zone. Whole blood enters a zone entry region to separate red cells toward the high-G side and platelet rich plasma (PRP) toward the low-G side. A second region is axially or circumferentially spaced from, and connected to, the entry region by a path conveying blood in a first direction from the entry region to the second region. Blood flows through an inlet port (20,68) into the entry region. PRP is collected from the low-G side of the zone through an outlet port (24,72) opening into the entry region. The first wall (16,64) tapers towards the second wall (18,64) such that the radial distance between the walls decreases in the first flow direction. Platelets of larger than average size are collected.
