ladders, each ladder comprising first and second vertical members connected by
a plurality of vertically-spaced cross-rungs, a plurality of horizontally-arranged
slats, each slat being supported on one of the cross rungs in each of the ladders
and between the first and second vertical members, an adjusting mechanism for
commonly pivoting each of the slats about its longitudinal axis by moving the first
and second vertical members of the ladders in vertically opposite directions, a
vertically-extending auxiliary tilt cord that is adjacent to a first vertical member of
a ladder and can be moved upwardly, engaging means, on the auxiliary tilt cord
and the adjacent first vertical member of the ladder, for moving the adjacent first
vertical member at an intermediate location along its length upwardly with upward
movement of the auxiliary tilt cord, so as to adjust the angular pivot of a section of
the cross-rungs connected to the first vertical member above or below the
intermediate location. The engaging means includes a guiding loop on the first
vertical member, a bead fixed on the auxiliary tilt cord and vertically spaced away
from the guiding loop and an engaging collar slidably positioned on the auxiliary
tilt cord between the guiding loop and the bead, the auxiliary tilt cord extending
through the guiding loop, the bead being adapted to engage the engaging collar
and thereafter move the engaging collar toward the guiding loop when the
auxiliary tilt cord is moved upwardly and the engaging collar being adapted to
engage the guiding loop when the auxiliary tilt cord is moved further upwardly.
The venetian blind including manipulating means for moving the auxiliary tilt cord
upwardly which comprises a winding drum, attached to the auxiliary tilt cord, for
winding the auxiliary tilt cord only after the adjusting mechanism has moved the
first and second vertical members of the ladders in vertically opposite directions.

Abstract: A scan system and method (100) provides users the ability to quickly and
efficiently transfer images from a scanner (16) to a destination location. In particular,
the scan system (100) can be implemented as follows. The scan system includes a
scanner (16) and a transferring mechanism (100). The scanner (16) generates a scanned
document or image. The transferring mechanism (100) connects to a destination
location (125) and transfers the scanned document or image to the destination location
for storage (145). The present invention can also be viewed as providing a method for
scanning documents directly to a destination location. The method operates by
selecting a scanner icon (123) and associating the icon (123) with the destination
location. The association of the icon with the destination location causes the scanner
(16) to connect to the destination location (125), scan a document or image (142) using
the scanner (16), and transfer the scanned document (145) to the destination location for
storage.

Abstract: Spielgegenstände, wie beispielsweise Teddybären (10), werden vielfach zu Werbezwecken
eingesetzt. Dazu werden die Teddybären (10) mit Logos oder anderen Kennzeichnungen
versehen. Diese werden als externe Dekorationselemente mit dem Teddybären
(10) verbunden. Solche Dekorationselemente beeinträchtigen den Gebrauchswert
des Teddybären (10) und können auch entfernt werden, wodurch der Werbezweck nicht
mehr erfüllt wird. 
     Die Erfindung sieht es vor, mindestens ein Auge (14) des Teddybären (10) mit einer bildlichen
und/oder textlichen Darstellung (15, 16) zu versehen. Das Auge (14) erfüllt dann
den angestrebten Werbezweck. Externe Banderolen oder dergleichen sind nicht mehr
erforderlich. Da die zu Werbezwecken dienende textliche oder bildliche Darstellung
Bestandteil mindestens eines Auges (14) des Teddybären (10) ist, ist nicht davon auszugehen,
dass die textliche und/oder bildliche Darstellung entfernt wird, weil dann auch das
jeweilige Auge (14) entfernt werden müsste, wodurch das optische Erscheinungsbild des
Teddybären (10) erheblich beeinträchtigt würde.

Abstract: For detecting service carriers, a received power
measuring section 16 initially carries out received
power measurement in a frequency band assigned to the
system, a frequency limiting section 22 limits a
service carrier seeking frequency range to the vicinity
of a frequency where thus measured received power
exceeds a threshold, the received power measuring
section 16 measures the received power at a frequency
where a service carrier may exist within this frequency
range, and the controller 24 chooses a frequency
yielding a high measured received power as a service
carrier candidate frequency. Then, the cell search
executing section 18 initially executes a cell search
for this candidate frequency.

Magerverbrennungsphasen operierenden Verbrennungsmotors (2) eingesetzt ist. 
     In einem Vorversuch ist ein funktionaler Zusammenhang zwischen der Ist-Speicherdauer
des NO x -Speicherkatalysators (1) und Betriebsgrößen des
Verbrennungsmotors (2) festgelegt worden, welche die Ist-Speicherdauer

Zusammenhangs wird die Ist-Speicherdauer des NO x -Speicherkatalysators (1) auf
Basis der von den Sensoren gelieferten Meßwerte für die Betriebsgrößen ermittelt.
Die so ermittelte aktuelle Ist-Speicherdauer des im Betrieb bereits gealterten NO x -Speicherkatalysators

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of automatically
milking animals with the aid of a construction including an
implement for milking animals, such as cows, comprising a
milking machine having one or more teat cups provided with a
teat cup lining which separates the teat chamber from a
chamber in the teat cup, in which an alternating underpressure
can be applied, whereby, between the teat cup wall and the
teat cup lining, a teat cup includes at least two mutually
separated chambers, whilst an alternating underpressure can be
applied in at least one of these chambers. Connecting of the
teat cup proceeds in the following stages:
     in a first stage, in which a teat is partly sucked
into the teat chamber, an underpressure is applied
in the first (the upper) chamber, whilst the second
(the lower) chamber is kept at atmospheric pressure
and air is sucked via the milk line from the teat
chamber;   in a second stage, which is initiated when the teat
has been sucked so far into the teat chamber that
the pressure in the teat chamber decreases to a
predetermined underpressure value, the upper chamber
is brought to atmospheric pressure or to a slight
underpressure, whilst the lower chamber is kept at
atmospheric pressure;   in a third stage, the pressure in the upper chamber
is kept at or brought to atmospheric pressure,
whilst in the lower chamber an underpressure is
applied, which is approximately equal to the
underpressure established in the teat chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a fire alarm system for connecting
a plurality of fire sensors (13) to sensor lines (12a to 12d),
and giving an alarm in response to fire information output from
the fire sensor (13) in a line unit. The fire alarm system includes
a current modulation section (47, 48, 49) and an address
specification section (22, 23, 24, 27_1 to 27_n). The current
modulation section is used for maintaining a current flowing
in the sensor line at a predetermined value for a predetermined
time at the time of a fire, andmodulating the current in accordance
with the inherent address information of the fire sensor. The
address specification section is used for sensing fire
information by judging whether or not the current has been
maintained at the predetermined value for the predetermined time,
and also for specifying the inherent address of the fire sensor
that issued the fire information, from the modulated state of
the current.

Abstract: A system is provided, which controls a starting and the subsequent vehicle acceleration procedure of a motor vehicle. The system compares a predetermined variable that grows continuously during the starting procedure to a threshold value. It determines a first desired value of torque in response to operator demand, and a second desired value torque in response to acceleration slip. The system performs a feed-forward 4WD control in response to the first desired value of torque when the predetermined variable is lower than or equal to the threshold value. The system determines whether or not driving situation justifies a change from performing the feed-forward 4WD control to performing a feed-back 2/4WD control in response to the second desired value of torque.
