Title: Sharpening apparatus
Inventor: NIESCHULZE HENRIK
IPC: A01F29/22
Filed: 2000-03-10
Granted: 2004-09-21
Abstract: A sharpening apparatus for sharpening the blades of a forage harvester chopper drum includes a carriage to which is mounted a grindstone holder that holds a grindstone that is moved across the chopper drum during sharpening operation. The grindstone holder includes an element which is mounted to the carriage for movement towards the chopper drum in order to advance the grindstone. The holder element contains a threaded bore in which is received a threaded shaft that has a ratchet wheel fixed to it. A  pawl is located in the path of movement of the ratchet wheel so as to be engaged thereby when the carriage reaches a reversal point at one side of the drum, this engagement causing the ratchet wheel to be rotated by an angular distance occupied by one tooth so that the threaded shaft causes the grindstone holder to move axially therealong and toward the chopper drum so as to advance the grindstone. In one embodiment the element of the holder is cylindrical and is received in a cylindrical opening in the carriage and fixed therein against rotation by a pair of feather keys. In a second embodiment, the element of the holster is a block, with the block and the carriage having cooperating surfaces which guide the movement of the holder towards the chopper drum while preventing any rotation of the holder about the axis of the threaded shaft.

Title: Method and system for restoring a subscriber context
Inventor: FORSSELL MIKA
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1998-11-06
Granted: 2007-04-24
Abstract: A method and system for restoring a subscriber context in a network element of a mobile communication network is described, wherein a new subscriber context which has been updated after the latest restart is indicated by transmitting a corresponding restart information to the network element. Based on the restart information the network element continues the use of new subscriber contexts updated after the latest restart and inactivates old subscriber contexts updated before the latest restart. Thereby, the amount of unnecessary subscriber context reactivations and the corresponding downtime of the service is reduced.  Moreover, the amount of signaling required after the restart is reduced, since a smaller number of subscriber contexts have to be re-established.

Granted: 2004-08-24
Abstract: A method and circuitry for comparing simulations of a subscriber loop to acquired waveforms. The method consists of analyzing the echo responses generated by the transmittal of pulses onto the subscriber loop. A slowly decaying signal caused by the inductive effect is removed from the echo signal. A simulated waveform is compared to the actual echo signal. By the method a discontinuity is identified in the frequency domain, the time domain signal representing each discontinuity is then obtained via an inverse fast Fourier transform and subtracted from the acquired data. The remaining data is then processed similarly as the method moves from the first discontinuity located nearest to a detector to the last discontinuity located farthest from the detector. The circuitry consists of an arrangement for calculating the difference between the responses on two branches of the loop. By use of this differential probing circuitry the echo response is captured and used in determining gauge and discontinuities.
