Abstract: A computer-based method and computer-readable medium containing computer-executable instructions for assimilating data collected by a time domain reflectometer and displaying more than two waves representing reflections of a pulse on conductors is provided. The method includes a means for wave reversal, wave shifting, multi-wave display, segmented velocity of propagation adjustment, multi-cursor option multi-flagging options and calculating of the total length of wet cable. The combinations of these functions provides a highly accurate means for identifying the location of splices, faults, corrosion, cable damage and other anomalies that are typically found on any length of conductor cable. The ability of this method to display a greater number of waves simultaneously adds additional benefit to a technician attempting to locate particular anomalies with multi-conductor cables.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary lead-through for the coolant inflow and outflow of a back-up and/or conveyor roller ( 1 ) which is held in a bearing arrangement at the end at least by means of bearing journals ( 10 ) located in bearing blocks ( 11 ), in particular in a continuous casting plant. To compensate for the axial movement and oscillating movement of the back-up and/or conveyor roller during operation, the bearing ( 9 ) at one end, to which the coolant inflow line and the coolant outflow line is connected, is a fixed axial bearing which is nevertheless able to absorb oscillating movement, while the other bearing is a detached axial bearing. In this way it is possible to provide on the fixed axial bearing a rotary lead-through, without a compensator, between the bearing journal ( 10 ) and a covering plate ( 12 ), wherein a fixed sleeve ( 16 ), sealed in the bearing journal ( 10 ), is sealed at the covering plate ( 12 ) by means of a rotary shaft sealing ring ( 18 ) which makes it possible for relative rotary movement and oscillating movement to occur.

Abstract: Human hepatocytes are transplanted into the liver of a mouse suffering from immunodeficient hepatopathy and then the mouse carrying the human hepatocytes transplanted therein is fed under such conditions as being protected from the attack by a human complement produced by the human hepatocytes. Thus, the transplanted human hepatocytes are proliferated on a mass scale in the mouse liver. By repeating the above procedure with the use of the human hepatocytes thus proliferated, human hepatocytes are obtained in a large amount.

Abstract: The invention provides a solution for performing multicast for streaming transmission in a telecommunication system. An intermediate node is proposed which is able to connect the functionality of a broadcast/multicast server and of a streaming node. Further the intermediate node is responsible for the establishment of a bearer for multicast transmission. The establishment of a session is done by means of a translation the on-demand single-use signalling into multi-user push signalling. Furthermore an adaptation of the streaming flow for a whole multicast group or for individual subgroups of a multicast group is performed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for increasing the intrinsic viscosity of a polyester material by solid-state polymerization, wherein the polyester material is heat-treated in a heat treatment container ( 6 ), the polyester material being introduced into a preheating container ( 2 ) prior to being conveyed into the heat treatment container ( 6 ), in which preheating container it is heated to a heat treatment temperature of the heat treatment container ( 6 ) or to a temperature above that and is delivered to the heat treatment container ( 6 ) after having reached said temperature. The preheating container ( 2 ) is small in comparison with the heat treatment container ( 6 ) so that the relatively small amount of polyester material contained therein can quickly be heated to the intended temperature, thereby leading to a short residence time in the preheating container. After reaching the intended temperature, the entire content of the preheating container can be delivered all at once to the heat treatment container, whereupon the preheating container can be charged with fresh polyester material. Due to the short residence time, the preheating container is operable well in a discontinuous operation.

Abstract: An electrically powered rotary hammer comprising a housing (10) with a tool holder (36) located at a forward end of the housing within which a tool or bit (34) can be releasable mounted so as to be rotatingly driven and so as to be able to undergo limited reciprocation. A rotary drive mechanism (2, 6, 40, 4, 36) mounted within the housing rotatingly drives the tool or bit and a hammering mechanism (2, 6, 72, 12, 18, 20, 26, 24, 4, 3, 5) mounted within the housing repeatedly impacts the tool or bit. A first switcheable gear arrangement (72) is selectively moveable into an actuating position for actuating the hammering mechanism and a second switchable gear arrangement (40) is selectively moveable into an actuating position for actuating the rotary drive mechanism. The hammer includes a mode change arrangement including a mode change knob (21) moveably mounted on the housing, a linkage support (42) mounted on the housing, a first linkage (30) slideably supported in the linkage support for communication between the mode change knob and the first switchable gear arrangement and a second linkage (32) slideably supported in the linkage support for communication between the mode change knob and the second switchable gear arrangement. The mode change arrangement is arranged such that movement of the knob moves the linkages between three positions, a drilling only mode position in which the second switchable gear arrangement only is in its actuating position, a hammer drilling mode in which both the first and second gear arrangements are in their actuating position and a hammering only mode position in which the first switchable gear arrangement only is in its actuating position.

Abstract: In the single-indexing method, the blades are positioned in a circle on a cutter head, so that all of the blades run through a tooth space to be produced during cutting of a bevel gear. The workpiece is then rotated by one pitch and the continuously rotating cutter head may then cut the next tooth space. Since the blades do not all have their intended shapes and positions, different structures arise on the tooth flanks, which lead to deviations in the pitch measurement. In order to avoid this, a face-milling method is suggested in which the cutter head gets the same angular position around its axis in relation to the tooth space to be produced as for the preceding space. This has the result that all tooth spaces are not more precise overall, but their surface structures are identical and the pitch measurement is thus not falsified.
