Title: Device for sorting waste slag from a waste incinerator and a method for the sorting
Inventor: JOHANSSON LARS JOERGEN
IPC: F23J1/00
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement (1) and a method for the first sorting of waste slag from a waste incineration furnace, comprising a motor-driven roller grating (2) with a number of rollers (4) for the purpose of permitting fine pieces of waste slag (8) to pass through essentially vertically and for the onward transport of coarse pieces of waste slag (9) essentially horizontally, where the aforementioned roller grating (2) exhibits an intake end (10) and a discharge end (11). The invention is characterized in particular by: a first belt conveyor (13), situated beneath the roller grating (2) and so arranged as to collect fine pieces of waste slag (8) failing through the roller grating (2) and to transport these to a discharge end (14) situated adjacent to the discharge end (11) of the roller grating (2); a second belt conveyor (24), exhibiting an intake end (25) situated beneath the discharge end (11) of the roller grating (2) and so arranged in this way as to collect coarse pieces of waste slag (9) falling from the discharge end (11) of the roller grating (2), where the intake end (25) of the aforementioned second belt conveyor (24) is also situated at a distance from the discharge end (14) of the first belt conveyor (13) such that a slag passage (27) for fine pieces of waste slag (8) is present between the discharge end (14) of the first belt conveyor (13) and the intake end (25) of the second belt conveyor (24); and a rotating roller (30) situated at the intake end (25) of the second belt conveyor (24) and equipped with a magnet (36) so arranged as to attract fine magnetic pieces of scrap (37) from the fine pieces of waste slag (8) as they fall through the slag passage (27) and to carry these onto the second belt conveyor (24).

Abstract: A reclining element includes a pivotal backrest, a headrest, which is coupled in an articulated manner thereto, and optionally a footrest. These pivotal parts can be displaced by an electromotive adjusting device. The reclining element is so configured as to eliminate the need for the link lever fastened to the pivot shaft, whereby the forces required for adjusting can be transmitted by an appropriate kinematic system to the footrest or backrest. In order to raise the backrest, an articulated lever ( 20 ) is used, which is provided in the form of a toggle lever and which is connected to the adjusting element. A lever ( 20 a) of the articulated lever ( 20 ) is coupled to the adjusting element ( 18 ). The other lever ( 20 b) is coupled to the backrest ( 11 ) so that when the adjusting element travels out of the end position, the joint ( 21 ) executes a guided linear movement and a rotational movement that leads to a blocking of the articulated lever ( 20 ) in a particular blocking position. A preferred embodiment of the reclining element is a slatted frame.

Abstract: Using two simple antennas with different frequencies of operation combined into an antenna arrangement a directional radiation pattern is obtained for both frequencies of operation. This is achieved by placing the antennas such that the first antenna acts as a director for the second antenna at the frequency of operation of the second antenna and the second antenna acts as a reflector for the first antenna at the frequency of operation of the first antenna. In the case of a monopole antenna the the first antenna is shorter than the second antenna and can thus operate as a director while the second antenna is longer than the first antenna and can thus act as a reflector.

Abstract: An improved Pseudo Noise (PN) code acquisition
apparatus and method for Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) systems which utilize a
Fourier Transform and which operate in both additive white
Gaussian noise and frequency offset environments. The signal to
noise ratio (SNR) is generated and used not only to make the
decision of when to stop the signal search process but also to
adjust the search rate. The Fourier transform is implemented in
ASIC hardware to estimate frequency offset. To further speed up
its processing, the Fourier transform is performed using shift
and add operations by employing canonic sign digit representation
of the eigen vector of the Fourier transform. Detection
probability is increased and false alarm probability is reduced
significantly, especially in a frequency offset environment.
