Abstract: Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Flurförderzeug, vorzugsweise Niederhubwagen oder
Niederhubkommissionierer, mit einer Lastaufnahmevorrichtung (6) und einer
elektrischen Steuereinheit (17) zum Steuern einer vertikalen Bewegung der
Lastaufnahmevorrichtung (6). Mit der Steuereinheit (17) ist mindestens ein Sollwert für
die Hubhöhe der Lastaufnahmevorrichtung (6) vorgebbar. Mit der Steuereinheit (17)
steht mindestens ein Bedienelement (13) zum Steuern einer Aufwärtsbewegung der
Lastaufnahmevorrichtung (6) in Wirkverbindung. Erfindungsgemäß ist die Steuereinheit
(17) derart ausgeführt, dass in Abhängigkeit von der Betätigungsdauer des
Bedienelements (13) zum Steuern der Aufwärtsbewegung mindestens ein Sollwert,
vorzugsweise wahlweise ein erster Sollwert oder ein zweiter Sollwert vorgebbar ist. Die
Hubhöhe wird auf den ersten Sollwert eingestellt, wenn die Betätigungsdauer des
Bedienelements (13) zum Steuern der Aufwärtsbewegung kürzer ist, als eine in der
Steuereinheit (17) gespeicherte Zeitdauer. Auf den zweiten Sollwert wird die Hubhöhe
eingestellt, wenn die Betätigungsdauer des Bedienelements (13) zum Steuern der
Aufwärtsbewegung länger ist, als eine in der Steuereinheit (17) gespeicherte Zeitdauer.

Abstract: A clutch device includes a sleeve (30) which has recesses (31) and is
engaged with an input shaft (20). Each of the recesses has a deep corner (311) and a
shallow comer (312), and a roller (50) is received in each of the recesses. A driving
disk (60) has a flange (61) enclosing the sleeve. A first ring member (70) and a
second ring member (80) are mounted to the sleeve and each of the first ring
member and the second ring member has slots (73, 84) which extend toward
different directions. The slots in the first and the second ring member have a
common space for receiving a ball (91) which is biased by a spring (92) towards the axis of rotation of the assembly.
Depending on rotational speed the balls are shifted outwardly due to
centrifugal force and cause relative angular displacement of the first ring member which has blocks (71)
to shift the rollers to narrow corners to drive the driving disk.

Abstract: In a high-frequency module according to the
present invention in which a conductive cap for an
electromagnetic purpose is placed on a substrate on
which a plurality of electrical components are mounted
by soldering, an insulating adhesive is applied between
the plurality of electrical components. Since the
insulating adhesive is applied between the electrical
components on the substrate, it is possible to prevent
such deficiencies as "solder touch" between components
due to self-alignment which is caused by a solder which
melts in the reflow process. As a result, a highly
reliable high-frequency module can be obtained, and the
number of application points of the insulating adhesive
can be reduced.

Abstract: Sewage processing assembly has at least one activated-sludge basin, with an intermittent aeration rotor supported by at least one float carrier. The float carrier (10), with the aeration rotor (8), is near a basin wall (3) at a vertical guide rail (11), to give it an adjusted height setting according to the sewage level (26) in the basin. The activated sludge basin, to process sewage, has a float carrier which projects at an angle from a vertical section (14) at the sliding guide, and a horizontal overhang (15) which holds the aeration rotor. The vertical section has two longitudinal carriers which move along the sides (12) of the vertical guide rail. The guide rail sides are linked by rungs (13) into a ladder. The vertical guide rail is mounted to the basin wall by brackets, to hold it at a gap from the wall surface. The longitudinal carriers of the float carrier are U-shaped to fit around the sides of the guide rail. The horizontal overhang is a platform formed by two side members linked by lateral carriers, and the platform is covered by a grid. The float (9) is fitted into the corner between the vertical and overhang sections of the float carrier. An Independent claim is included for an aeration rotor with a drive motor (17) to rotate the paddle wheel (16) round a vertical axis (18) which is shrouded within a housing, open at the bottom and with air inlet passages at the top.

Abstract: An apparatus for currency discrimination comprises first and second stationary
scanheads, disposed on opposite sides of a bill transport path, for scanning respective
first and second opposing surfaces of a bill traveling along the bill transport path and
for producing respective output signals. The bill travels along the transport path in
the direction of a predetermined dimension of the bill. A memory stores master
characteristic patterns corresponding to associated predetermined surfaces of a
plurality of denominations of genuine bills. Sampling circuitry samples the output
signals associated with the respective first and second opposing surfaces of the
scanned bill. A signal processor is programmed to determine which one of the first
and second opposing surfaces corresponds to the associated predetermined surfaces of
the plurality of denominations of genuine bills. The processor then correlates the
output signal associated with the one of the first and second opposing surfaces
corresponding to the associated predetermined surfaces with the master characteristic
patterns to identify the denomination of the scanned bill.

Abstract: The present invention stores data of the nearest
airport where an airplane can take off and land as well
as database of an ETOPS-applied time related to this
airplane beforehand. When a flight route is set, this
ETOPS-applied time is read out (step S1). An area
having a radius r calculated on the basis of the ETOPS-applied
time is defined to be a flight-permitted area.
With this, if a desired route entered by the operator
is outside this area, an operating port (11) calculates
a flight route that can be contained in the flight-permitted
area throughout the total flight.

Abstract: A releasable coupling assembly [10] for connecting two members is provided that
includes a first member [12] having an exterior surface [16] with a receiving portion and
a second [12] member having a hose adapter [24] and a sleeve valve [26] positioned
within the adapter [24]. The sleeve valve [26] is in slidable communication with the
adapter [24] and includes at least one socket aperture [28] that includes a mating ball [30]
that contacts at least one longitudinal groove [32] in the adapter [24] that includes a first

[30] of the sleeve valve [26] is retained in the receiving formation [20] of the first
member [12] by the first radial portion [34] of the longitudinal groove [32] of the hose
adapter [24]. When the members are pulled apart for disconnection, the sleeve valve [26]
initially remains engaged with the first member [12] until the ball [30] comes into contact
with the expanded radial portion [36] of the longitudinal groove [32] of the hose adapter
[24] and the ball [30] departs the receiving formation [20] of the first member [12], such
that the valve [26] is completely or almost completely closed prior to disconnection of the
members.

IPC: G09G3/36

Abstract: The invention relates to a  m -column/ n -row/ m x n -pixel inversion driving method
for a liquid crystal display where  m  can be any integer from two to the number
of scan lines and  n  can be any integer of two to the number of column lines.
Such a driving method greatly reduces total fringe field effect on display to
maintain contrast whilst minimising perception of flickering. Moreover, the
number of inversions can be adjusted to strike a balance between contrast and
perceptibility of flickering. The  n -row inversion method can be applied to
passively and actively driven liquid crystal displays where  n  can be any integer
from two to the number of scan lines. The  m -column inversion driving method
can be applied to an actively driven LCD where  m  can be any integer from two
to the number of column lines while the  n x m -pixel inversion method can be
applied to an actively driven LCD where  n  can be any integer from two to the
number of scan lines and  m  can be any integer from two to the number of
column lines. This inversion method is particularly useful in actively driven
miniature TFT and reflective liquid crystal on silicone displays in contrast to the
effect on fringe field if a conventional single row/column/pixel inversion method
is used.
