Title: Computer testing arrangement and method therefor
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 1986-04-15
Granted: 1990-07-25
Abstract: The operation of a target computer (102) is monitored by a terminal controller (101) connected to one or more of the computer's input/output ports. The controller can send data on one of the computer's ports and simultaneously record and monitor computer responses at several of the computer's input/output ports. Two data queues are provided for each monitored port and received data is stored in a first queue, referred to as a spooler queue (203), and may be searched for a specified character string before it is transferred to the second queue called the demux queue (207). Received information, in addition to being searched for a specified character string, is also examined for message type and a message type designation is added to each data word or message transferred to the demux queue. From the demux queue the data is transferred to different storage files (215, 217) depending upon the message type designation. The transfer of data through the queus is controlled by several processes (211, 213) which communicate via a shared memory area. Such a set of queues and processes is provided for each monitored port, operating independently from processes for other ports.

Abstract: The pressure in a continuous high pressure polymerization system, in which ethylene, with or without comonomers, is polymerized under high pressures and temperatures and the unconverted amounts of gas are recycled through the high pressure recycle gas system into the polymerization system, is rapidly reduced to below the particular reaction pressure when predetermined limiting pressure and/or temperature values are exceeded or when other faults occur by opening one or more pressure-relief apparatuses mounted on the high pressure polymerization system and transferring the hot let-down reaction mixture from the polymerization system via one or more let-down lines through one or more separator systems into the atmosphere, by a process in which the high pressure polymerization system is divided into a plurality of isolated sections at the same time as the let-down process is triggered and only the section in which the let-down process is triggered is let down to the atmosphere. Preferably, the sections in which the let-down process is not triggered can be let down into the high pressure recycle gas system, if necessary through a product separator, in synchronization with triggering of the let-down to the atmosphere.

Granted: 1991-06-12
Abstract: For tobacco bale separation, a bale (10) is presented by a conveyor (18) at a separating location between spaced separating paddles. Each of the latter comprises a blade (26) mounting arcuate blade members (28) which are curved in a direction of rotation of the blade (26). The blade members (28) extend into the path of movement of the bale (10) in a direction substantially parallel to the layering so as to penetrate behind a layer (34). Continued movement of the bale (10) and rotation of the blades (26) causes further penetration of the blade members (28), the curvature being such that the outer ends of the blade members (28) accelerate in a direction endwise of the bale (10) to separate the layer (34) therefrom. The layer (34) continues to be accelerated away from the bale (10) into a conditioning unit.

Abstract: The device for preventing mechanical overloads, which is coupled to a single-arm pantograph, brings about the triggering of the normal lowering process for the pantograph in the event of a fault, i.e. when inadmissibly large horizontal forces occur on the horned slipper holder (7). This occurs according to the invention by evacuating the air from a control line (28) for a precontrol valve (32) connected to the feeder line (33) to the lowering cylinder (14), which control line is acted fed with pressure from the main air connection (36) via of a throttle valve (34). The end (27) of this control line (28), on the pantograph side, is provided with an openable closing element (26) which is in a mechanical operative connection which brings about or maintains its closed state with a swivel lever (22) which is held in a position of rest in a known manner by means of a fracture bolt (25) and on which the lower joint of the coupling rod (4) is arranged. <IMAGE>

Abstract: When a shift lever (1) of an automatic transmission is shifted to the parking position, a detent pin (6) provided on the shift lever (1) is engaged with a movable body (16) and is moved to a first position so as to be engaged with detent means (4, 7) so that the shift to another shift position is prevented. A lock means (23) is engaged with the movable body (16) which has been moved, together with the detent pin (6), to the first position so that the lock means cannot be separated from the movable body if a driver does not perform a special operation such as operating the brake. Therefore, the movable body (16) cannot be moved to the second position, and the shift lever (1) cannot be moved to another shift position. The movable body (16) is positioned at the second position when the shift lever is positioned at another shift position, and the body (16) is engaged with the detent pin (6) immediately after the shift lever is operated to the parking position (P).
