Abstract: L'invention concerne un capteur optique (1) destiné à détecter des objets (6) dans une zone de surveillance. Le capteur optique (1) comporte deux émetteurs (2a, 2b) émettant des rayons lumineux d'émission (3a, 3b) sous forme de suites alternées d'impulsions lumineuses d'émission, et un récepteur (5) recevant les impulsions lumineuses d'émission des deux émetteurs (2a, 2b), réfléchies par un objet (6), en tant que rayons lumineux de réception (4). Un diaphragme de récepteur (7) destiné à diaphragmer une partie des rayons lumineux de réception (4) est disposé en amont du récepteur (5). Le capteur optique comporte également une unité d'évaluation et de commande (8) balayant les signaux de réception à la sortie du récepteur (5) de telle manière que les niveaux de réception obtenus à un ou plusieurs instants de balayage, ou leurs combinaisons linéaires, contiennent une grandeur du rapport entre les rayons lumineux d'émission (3a, 3b) émis par les deux émetteurs (2a, 2b) et guidés sur le récepteur (5), caractéristique de la distance de l'objet. Dans l'unité d'évaluation et de commande (8), les niveaux de réception ou leurs combinaisons linéaires sont évalués avec une valeur seuil (sl) à longueur de balayage définie, de manière à produire un signal de commutation binaire dont les états de commutation indiquent si un objet (6) est situé dans une zone de surveillance délimitée par la longueur de balayage, ou non.

Abstract: In a rotary brush screen at an overflow sill of a rainwater relief system, comprising screen bars extending transverse to the overflow sill and strippers engaging in the screen bars in a comb-like manner, the strippers are put into a curvilinearly extending, circling movement via a crank drive in accordance with the invention by means of an actuating lever in cooperation with a stationary support bearing, due to which circling movement the strippers are guided from above into the spaces between the screen bars and out again at the bottom of the overflow sill. The risk of the discharge of solids into the waters as a result of a mechanical influence on the solids during the stripping operation is reduced thereby and the operational safety is increased.

Abstract: Method for detecting the travel direction of a vehicle: 1. A plurality of calculation processes are run in parallel, wherein the calculated velocity of the calculation process having a virtual path impulse best matching the actual path impulses is valid. 2. A calculation process is continuously corrected when calculated virtual path impulses do not match actual path impulses. 3. The direction of travel is obtained from a sign of a determined velocity. An acceleration signal of an acceleration sensor and a velocity signal comprising velocity information are detected. A velocity is determined by integrating the acceleration signal and a constant of integration is derived from the velocity information. The offset of the acceleration sensor provides the correction of the acceleration signal. A time differential of the velocity information is determined and subtracted from the acceleration signal. The offset of the acceleration sensor is corrected after a certain time by generating an instantaneous velocity for slow travel and comparing it to the velocity obtained by integrating the acceleration signal. The difference of the two velocities is used for correcting the offset of the acceleration sensor. 4. The direction of travel of a vehicle is determined, wherein the path of a gradient is considered when determining the offset of the acceleration sensor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an arrangement for detachably securing together the side-pieces (1) and the shelves (2) of a shelving structure, made of wood or a comparable material. The arrangement comprises hook-like fasteners, each of which comprises an insert peg (5), which is arranged to be inserted into an insert hole (3) formed in a side-piece (1), and a binding peg (7) which extends at right angles to the insert peg (5) and which is intended to be removeably inserted into a binding hole (11) formed in the shelf (2), to permit the shelves to be readily moved from one level to another in the shelving structure. There has long been sought a technically and economically advantageous solution to the problem of producing a shelving structure or cabinet structure which can be quickly assembled in a simple fashion while using the simplest of components preferably solely smooth, sheet-like components having no outwardly projecting parts. The present invention affords such a solution, in that the insert peg (5) is provided with a plate-like projection (9), or a plurality of axially spaced plate-like projections, located in a plane substantially at right angles to the insert peg (5). The insert hole (3) is of non-round cross-section, and the arrangement of the projection or projections (9) is such that when an insert peg is inserted into a non-round insert hole (3) and rotated through about 90 DEG  in the opening, the projections penetrate the wall of the insert hole, to prevent withdrawal of the insert peg (5) therefrom.
