Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for forced drying of a teat (7, 38) of a dairy animal in a teat cleaning apparatus (1, 30) and to the appartus itself. The teat cleaning apparatus copmrises a teat receiving means (2, 32) having a teat receiving opening (3, 34), a teat receiving opening sealing means (9, 40), a cleaning means (11, 42, 44, 46) and a vacuum-supplying means (17, 52) wherein, during washing, the teat is received by the teat receiving means through said opening and exposed to the cleaning and vacuum-supplying means, said sealing means being in a substantially airtight sealing contact with the udder of the dairy animal. The invention features the step of supplying vacuum to the teat receiving means while removing (75, 85) it from the teat subsequent to washing, thus causing remaining liquid to be sucked away from, or wiped off, the teat.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transmission system and a method for matching an RIF parameter (RIF = Rate Increase Factor) in ABR-traffic. The invention is characterized in that when a connection is set up, RIF-matching is dependent on the following parameters: a memory location value (RIF_const), the largest possible number of ATM-cells which can be sent by the transmitter unit per control cell (Nrm), the peak cell rate (PCR), and the sum of the delays (FRTT). Said RIF matching is also dependent on an intermediary station (Max_RIF) specific constant.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une sonde permettant d'appliquer de l'énergie sur une cible, ainsi que son procédé d'utilisation. Ladite sonde comprend un capteur [28] servant à déterminer la position de la sonde, et un générateur de champ de force, en interaction avec la cible, en vue de l'application d'énergie sur ladite cible. Pour minimiser les interactions entre le détecteur et le générateur de champ de force, on dispose le générateur de champ de force par rapport au capteur [28] de manière qu'un noeud du champ de force se trouve au niveau du capteur. Par exemple, si le capteur [28] se trouve au niveau d'un élément de symétrie du cathéter, le générateur de champ de force est disposé de manière qu'un noeud du champ de force coïncide avec ledit élément de symétrie. Le capteur permet de garantir que la sonde reste à proximité de la cible lors de l'application d'énergie sur ladite cible.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electric power
steering controller and a control method for assisting a driver
during handling a steering wheel in a condition of a small
road surface reaction torque of a tire by generating an
auxiliary return torque (Itire) for letting the steering wheel return
to its original position. 
     The electric power steering controller and the control
method is configured in the following. 
     A first road surface reaction torque (Ttire_est1) is estimated from a
steering torque of a driver detected by a steering torque
detector (1), a motor acceleration (dω) detected by a motor acceleration
detector (5), and a motor current (Imtr) detected by a motor current
detector (11). 
     A second road surface reaction torque (Ttire_est2) is estimated from
a steering angle (hdl) detected by a steering angle sensor, and a
vehicle speed (Vx) detected by a vehicle speed detector (14). Then, a
first and a second auxiliary return torque signals (Itire_trq,Itire_agl) of the
steering wheel are computed from a road surface reaction
torque (Ttire_trq), and based on the computed result, a torque (Tmtr) of the
motor is controlled into the direction, wherein the steering
wheel is returned to its original position.

Abstract: An optical switch comprises at least a first input
optical guide (1) having a first beam exit termination (11)
and a first and second output optical guides (3,4)
respectively having first and second beam entrance
terminations (31,41), and a movable reflecting element (6),
operatively associated with said exit termination and
entrance terminations, movable between a first position and
a second position, the first position causing an optical
beam (14) exiting from said exit termination to be directed
towards the first entrance termination, the second position
causing said optical beam to be directed towards the second
entrance termination. A normal direction to each of said
exit termination and entrance terminations forms a first
angle (α1), different from 0°, with an optical axis
(12,32,42) of the respective guide, said first angle
depending on optical properties of the guides and of an
optical transmissive medium between the exit termination and
entrance terminations and being such that back-reflected
beams inside the guides are attenuated with respect to a
guide termination perpendicular to the optical axes of the
guides. The optical switch is suitable to be integrated in a
substrate, with integrated guides converging to a recess
formed in the substrate and adapted to movably house the
reflecting element.

The separating and mating surfaces at the thrust bearing carrier match the arrangement of the bearing surface of the thrust bearing to the spinning rotor, and the bearing pedestal is reassembled at the spinner. To recondition an open-end spinner, the bearing pedestal is separated on a plane which is parallel to the plane of the rotor shaft support disks. The bearing pedestal is separated between the two planes formed by the two pairs of support disks, or at least partially at right angles to the plane of the support disks. The separation is at least partially by drilling or milling generally at right angles or generally parallel to the support disk plane. The separation can also be by material removal or cutting without metal removal. The separation surface at the bearing pedestal is machined to form a counter surface to set the bearing carrier at the bearing pedestal. The separation surface is fitted with a mounting for the bearing carrier as a threaded drilling. The thrust bearing carrier is mounted with a force fit. An Independent claim is included for the bearings (10) at an open-end spinning rotor, with the rotor shaft support disks and a bearing pedestal (11) which can be separated from the thrust bearing.
