Abstract: A connecting structure includes a locking device having a spring-loaded locking element (9) and a locking element (5) for locking the connecting modules, and a magnet/armature structure having a magnet (4) and an armature (8). The magnet (4) and the armature (8) can be displaced, with the magnet (4) or the armature (8) coupled to the locking bar (5) via a coupling element (7) so that the locking element (5), when displaced between the magnet (4) and the armature (8), can be brought into a non--locking position. The magnetic force is chosen such that the connecting modules are pulled towards each other during closing, with the spring-loaded locking element (9) pushing against the locking element (5) until it snaps into engagement. The magnetic force is weaker during release once the locking position of the locking element (5) and the spring-loaded locking element (9) is reached to separate the module.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, un dispositif de station de base notifie une station de base d'informations de notification sous forme d'informations relatives à la puissance d'émission maximale de la station mobile, et la station mobile effectue une transmission de liaison montante sur la base des informations relatives à la puissance d'émission maximale de la station mobile dans les informations de notification. Dans le cas où une exigence de fuite de puissancevers les systèmes adjacents est stricte, la puissance d'émission maximale de la station mobile peut être commandée pour être réduite, et dans le cas où une exigence de fuite de puissance vers les systèmes adjacents n'est pas stricte, la puissance d'émission maximale de la station mobile peut être commandée pour ne pas être réduite.

Abstract: A fault diagnosis apparatus and method capable of simultaneously detecting the fault of a multiplexer and the fault of an A/D converter and isolating and identifying causes of these faults, the multiplexer and the A/D converter being used in a multi-channel analog input/output circuit. Test-voltage values are inputted from a diagnosis-voltage input unit into the multiplexer and the A/D converter constituting an analog-signal conversion unit, the multiplexer having plural channels, the A/D converter converting outputs from the multiplexer into digital signals, the test-voltage values being different from each other for each channel of the multiplexer. Comparisons are made between the digital voltage values and the test-voltage values inputted, the digital voltage values being outputted for each channel of the multiplexer. From this comparison result, it is judged whether the multiplexer is at fault or the A/D converter is at fault.

Abstract: A fuel-fired water heater is provided with a premixing type main burner and an associated pilot burner for igniting it. A specially designed protective system is operative to detect a flame flashback burning condition in the main burner and responsively shut down the water heater. In one embodiment thereof, the protective system uses main burner body heat to melt a portion of a fuel supply line connected to the pilot burner during a flame flashback condition in the main burner. Such melting responsively causes an associated fuel supply valve to close and terminate water heater operation. In a second protective system embodiment a normally closed pressure switch is opened, thereby shutting down the water heater, when the switch detects a pressure indicative of a flame flashback condition in the main burner.

Abstract: A gas level display controller includes a mass computation module, a reference value setting module, and a display control module. The mass computation module obtains a pressure and a temperature of compressed hydrogen stored in a hydrogen tank and calculates a mass of the compressed hydrogen in the hydrogen tank, for example, according to a known gas state equation. The reference value setting module sets a reference value, which is used for display of a remaining amount of the compressed hydrogen in the hydrogen tank on a display device, to the mass of the compressed hydrogen calculated by the mass computation module on the occasion of filling the compressed hydrogen into the hydrogen tank to limitation of the hydrogen filling. The display control module calculates a ratio of the mass of the compressed hydrogen to the reference value and makes the remaining amount of the compressed hydrogen in the hydrogen tank displayed on the display device, based on the calculated ratio. This arrangement enables a symbol 'FULL' to be reliably displayed on a display device on the occasion of filling a compressed gas into a tank to limitation of the gas filling.

Abstract: At least one embodiment of the invention relates to supplying ships in a harbor with external energy in order to prevent the formation of soot and CO2.  For this purpose it is already known to supply ships with power from the wharfage.    One problem in such a power supply provided from the wharf is that differences in the harbor's water level must be balanced for the power supply of a ship in the harbor. Furthermore, the operational readiness of such a power supply on land may be adversely affected, such as in the case of high water. At least one embodiment of the invention proposes a buoyant harbor power supply. e.g. the components of the harbor power supply are disposed on or in a buoyant device.  particularly a barge.

A drive device is operatively situated relative to the flow tube for vibrating the flow tube, such that the flow tube moves through a path defined between the light source and the light detector. In other aspects of the invention, a Coriolis mass flow sensor includes a flow tube and a frame having the flow tube mounted thereon. A drive device is operatively situated relative to the frame for vibrating the frame and at least one pick off sensor is situated relative to the flow tube so as to measure the twist in the flow tube due to Coriolis force.
