Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling and monitoring a traffic installation comprising control and monitoring elements, notably switch points (W1, ..., W4), signals (S1, ..., S8) and track non-occupancy indicators (FM1, ..., FM14). By means of a control process based on a track blocking table, which in response to a request for the establishment of a route blocks and controls all setting elements associated with said route such that they are unavailable to other requests for the establishment of other routes and operations, at least two routes for rail vehicles can be set. At least one parameter (1, 2, 3, 4) is assigned to the installation elements (W1, ..., W4; S1, ..., S8; FM1, ..., FM14) which relates to the conditions or assignments to be defined or taken into consideration for each intended route, so that by means of a parameter (1) assigned to the track non-occupancy indicators (FM1, ..., FM14) the track non-occupancy indicator (FM1, ..., FM14) sequence along a route is defined and by means of a further parameter (1) assigned to the other installation elements (W1, ..., W4; S1, ..., S8) the association of said other elements with at least one of the track non-occupancy indicators (FM1, ..., FM14) is defined. As a result of the above parameter assignments the control process based on said assignment permits a simple and safe control of the installation to be controlled. The above control process is further made easier to carry out by the complete and technically executable description of operating conditions. The measures provided for in the invention also permit a more rapid establishment and suppression of travel routes and recognition of disturbances in track non-occupancy indicators.

Abstract: The invention is a method and apparatus for adjusting a liquid content of a liquid and solid mixture withdrawn from a self-discharging centrifugal drum of a separator. The method includes the steps of: feeding a solid and liquid mixture into the separator; rotating the drum; separating the liquid and solid mixture during the rotation; bringing the separator to a halt; aspirating the liquid remaining in the interior of the centrifugal drum until a quantity remains which corresponds to a required consistency of a solid; and emptying the centrifugal drum of the solid with the required consistency from the centrifugal drum at a suitable rotational speed. The apparatus is a separator including: a self-discharging centrifugal drum; withdrawal openings; a solid space and a separating space; a feeding tube; a shutoff element; and a piston-type slide valve. A connection piece for the connection of a suction device is arranged below the shut-off element.

Abstract: A handle (10) supported pivotably but axially tight on an installation body (20) has a polygonal bar (30) mounted for rotation within a handle neck (12) for actuating a closing mechanism. Two drivers (15, 35) movable relative to each other are engageable in a non-positive and/or a positive way between neighboring surfaces (17, 37) either directly or by means of coupling elements (36, 40, 42) so that a torque transmission from the handle (10) to the polygonal bar (30) is free but is blocked from the polygonal bar (30) to the handle (10) as at least one coupling element (36) is displaced in the direction of the attack. A main portion of a polygonal driver (35) may be concentrically enclosed by a two-shell handle driver (15) having wings (52) with front faces (19) which drive e.g. pairs of spring-loaded roller pins (36) held in a wedge-shaped confining zone (55). Corner areas of indentations (31) of the polygonal driver (35) serve to attack the roller pins (36). Central parts (50) of the handle driver (15) may guide a compression spring (38) which loads engaging balls (47) in an outward direction; recesses (27) of the installation body (20) are associated to the balls (47) at enclosing surfaces (24; 44).

Abstract: A spherical cutting tool such as a ball end mill, a tapered ball end mill and the like is disclosed, in which cutting edges are formed on a spherical surface. The tangential lines of the respective points of the cutting edges on a spherical surface are made to have a constant (helix) angle relative to the axis of the tool. A tooth can be formed with an eccentric relief, and the tooth reinforced with a smaller relief angle and a wider land width. Therefore, the tool can be operated at a higher feed rate, thereby making it possible to improve the machining efficiency.

Abstract: A rear light system for a trailer (1) comprises a primary housing (5) which typically is located in a prime mover which tows the trailer (3), and a right-hand sub-housing (8) and a left-hand sub-housing (9) for mounting on a rear panel (10) of the trailer (3). Embodiments of the invention provide a surgical instrument having an end-effector located on the end of a rotatable shaft, the shaft projecting from a handle. In order to provide for easy control of the shaft rotation a thumbwheel is provided at the proximal end of the handle, which controls the rotation of the shaft, and hence the rotational orientation of the end-effector. The end-effector is capable of several different operations, including grasping, cutting, and sealing and/or coagulating tissue, and one of the operations is controlled by a switch located on the upper surface of the proximal end of the handle. Specifically, the switch is oriented on the handle so as to be generally above the thumbwheel, in a relative position to the thumbwheel so that both the thumbwheel and the switch may be activated by the user's thumb, without the user having to alter his grip on the handle with his other fingers. In one embodiment of the invention the switch is therefore vertically oriented above the thumbwheel. Such a configuration provides for an ergonomic arrangement that increases the ease of use of the instrument by the user.
