Abstract: Es wird ein Verfahren zur Steuerung und Regelung eines Antriebsstranges eines Fahrzeuges mit einem Antriebsaggregat, mit einem Getriebe und einem Abtrieb beschrieben. Das Getriebe weist mit Zahnradpaarungen korrespondierende steuerbare Freilaufeinrichtungen zum Ab- oder Zuschalten eines alten oder eines neuen Ganges und eine antriebsseitig angeordnete Kupplung auf. Bei Vorliegen eines Schaltsignals zur Durchführung einer Zughochschaltung wird ein Antriebsmoment des Antriebsaggregates derart schnell reduziert, daß eine erste Schwingung in dem Antriebsstrang angeregt wird. Bei einer anschließenden Schaltung wird eine Wirkverbindung zwischen einer Freilaufeinrichtung und einer damit korrespondierenden Zahnradpaarung des neuen Ganges derart abrupt hergestellt, daß in dem Antriebsstrang eine zweite, der ersten Schwingung entgegenwirkende Schwingung erzeugt wird. Mit der Zuschaltung des neuen Ganges wird die Wirkverbindung des alten Ganges aufgrund einer Momentumkehr von einem Zugmoment zu einem Schubmoment gelöst.

Abstract: An In-The-Ear (ITE) microphone (22) improves the acoustic response of an Implantable Cochlar Stimulation (ICS) system during telephone use. An acoustically sealed volume may be provided by holding a telephone earpiece against the outer ear. The ITE microphone (22) is positioned to receive sound from the sealed volume. The result provides improved coupling of low frequency (up to about 1 KHz) sound waves, sufficient to overcome losses due to the near field acoustic characteristics resulting from the telephone microphone cooperation. In a preferred embodiment, the microphone (34) is connected to an ear hook (24) by a short bendable stalk (28), which earhook (24) is adapted to connect to a Behind-The-Ear speech Processor (10) of an ICS system.

Abstract: A crank has a crank arm ( 3 ) and a freewheel element ( 1, 2 ) for fastening the crank arm (3) on a crankshaft. When the crank arm ( 3 ) is rotated in a first direction, a torque is transmitted to the crankshaft. When the crank arm ( 3 ) is rotated in a second, opposite direction, the crank arm ( 3 ) rotates in freewheeling mode. The crank furthermore has at least one fixing means ( 6, 6 ') for cancelling freewheeling, allowing the torque of the crank arm ( 3 ) to be transmitted to the crankshaft in both directions of rotation. This crank allows simple switching between one-way coupling and two-way coupling and significantly increases the available training and therapy options.

Abstract: The present invention relates to metal coated nano-fibres obtained by a process that includes electrospinning and to the use of said metal coated nano-fibres. The process is characterised in that a polymer nano-fibre with functional groups providing the binding ability to a reducing reagent is prepared by electrospinning at ambient conditions. Then this is contacted with a reducing agent, thereby opening the epoxy ring on the surface of polymer nano-fibre and replacing with the reducing agent and the reducing agent modified film is reacted with metal solution in alkaline media. Finally the electrospun mat is treated with water to open the epoxy rings in the structure and crosslinking the chains to provide integrity.
