Patent EP-1040066-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LAUGHERY HARRY E
IPC: B65H43/08
Filed: 1998-11-20
Abstract: Strip guiding apparatus includes a roll rotatable about its longitudinal axis over which strip will travel while under tension. Sensing apparatus determines the lateral position of the strip with respect to the desired position and emits signals to control apparatus which will effect responsive rotation of support apparatus in order to effect rotation of the roll about a second axis which is spaced from and oriented generally perpendicular to the roll longitudinal axis responsive to lateral movement of the strip in relation to the desired position. Drive apparatus effects rotation of the support apparatus responsive to receipt of signals from the control apparatus in order to move the strip toward the desired position. Apparatus is also provided for measuring strip tension and emitting signals to tension controlling apparatus to adjust tension where it is not within a desired range. The drive apparatus is adapted to effect rotation of the roll about the second axis in either rotatable direction and up to about 15 degrees in each direction. An associated method is provided.

Abstract: An access point (GGSN) from a mobile communications system to an external system is selected (3) at a service node (SGSN) of the mobile communications system based on at least two or three grounds of selection: the subscription data of a mobile subscriber stored in the mobile communication system or an access point selection data given by a user in a service request (1), or on other grounds. The serving node sends to the access point (GGSN) selected a further service request (4) which includes indication of the grounds of the selection, i.e. whether the access point is selected by subscription, by a user, or based on any other grounds. Thereby the access point is able to distinguish and accept service requests in which the rights of the user are already assured by the subscription, without any security problems. When the request is based on the selection of the access point by the user, or on any other insecure grounds, the access point is able to make any further actions to ensure the security. These further actions may include rejection of the service request.

Abstract: The invention relates to a levelling system for
controlling the pneumatic suspension of a vehicle, and to
the corresponding levelling module. The system carries
out the function of keeping constant the platform height
of the vehicle circulating on the road, adjusting manually
the platform height, when the vehicle is stopped, in order
to level said platform with the loading berth, limiting the
maximum height of the platform, returning automatically
the system to the normal circulation height, combining
said functions with the function of keeping constantly the
platform to the loading berth level, during the loading or
unloading operation, to any platform height value which
has been previously selected manually, independently of
the load vehicle status, by means of two modules; a
levelling module and a controlling module, both modules
being interconnected and the first of the two modules
being also connected to the vehicle systems and using a
mechanical-pneumatic technology. There is provided a levelling module which has two valves (11, 18) for alternative actuation by
selection of a selector valve (19), said two valves being a first transit levelling valve (11) and a second levelling valve (18) at the loading
berth; the module permits the desired adjustment of the height of the platform at the loading berth and is sensitive to height variations
with respect to said predetermined height through the use of clutch fixing means of the levelling valve (18) at the loading berth to the axes
which is part of the height sensor system. Application to the fabrication of pneumatic suspension control systems.

Abstract: A woven papermaking belt having a paper contacting top surface plane (24) and an opposed backside (26). The belt comprises a fabric (22) having yarns disposed, in part, in the top surface plane to form knuckles (36). The belt further comprises reinforcing piles (40) extending from a proximal end (42) to a distal end (44). The distal ends (44) of the reinforcing piles (40) are disposed between the top surface plane (24) of the papermaking belt and the backside (26) of the papermaking belt. The reinforcing piles (40) resist applied loads and may prevent deflection of the knuckles (36) during the papermaking process. The applied loads may either be normal to the belt, as occurs during imprinting, within the plane of the belt, which causes sleaziness of the belt, or both. The belt according to the present invention may have piles (40) with proximal ends (42) disposed at two or more different elevations, as well as distal ends (44), which are disposed at two or more elevations. This arrangement provides a belt which imprints different densities onto paper during papermaking, according to the ability of the piles (40) to resist compressive loads applied normal to the plane of the belt. In one alternative embodiment, the piles (40) may be disposed between the first and second layers of a multi-layer papermaking belt. The belt according to the present invention is particularly suitable for woven papermaking fabrics having long, unsupported knuckles.

Abstract: A serial-to-parallel converter (130) samples serial data
DA1 comprising a first data string, which includes one or more
unit data strings each including a predetermined number of
bits (00XXX...XXX) and which is input after a synchronization
period, in accordance with a clock signal CL1 which has been
used to generate the serial data by converting original
parallel data into serial form, thereby converting the serial
data to parallel data from one unit data string to another.
Signal generation means (140) generates a synchronization
signal corresponding to a synchronization period in accordance
with the serial data DA1 and the clock signal CL1. The serial
data includes a second data string (1100...000) which appears
in each synchronization period and which includes one or more
unit data strings having a predetermined bit pattern. If the
signal generation means (140) detects a unit data string
(11000...000) in the second data string, it generates a
synchronization signal. In accordance with the
synchronization signal, the serial-to-parallel converter (130)
detects the start position of the unit data string in the
first data string.
