Patent EP-0553893-A3 (EP)
Title: Improved method and apparatus for preheating ventilation air for a building
IPC: F24S10/80
Filed: 1990-01-25
Abstract: Ventilation air for a building is preheated by providing on a sun-facing wall a solar-energy absorbent collector panel with a plurality of air-inlet openings which communicate with air collection channels behind the panel. Outside air passing upwardly along the panel is heated by the heat of the panel which itself is heated by a combination of solar radiation and heat being lost from the interior of the building. The outside air, passing upwardly a short distance along the panel to the closest air inlet opening, is withdrawn therethrough into the air collection channel and expelled into the interior of the building. <IMAGE>

Inventor: LEYMANN FRANK DR
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 1997-07-10
Abstract: The present invention relates to the area of workflow
management systems (WFMS). WFMS execute a multitude of
process models consisting of a network of potentially
distributed activities. WFMS store WFMS state information
on the process models, the process model instances
currently executed by the WFMS together with the
instances's state and the state of the WFMS themselves in
Database Management Systems (DBMS). The WFMS and the DBMS
may be different computer systems connected by a computer
network. 
     The invention teaches an implementation of WFMS which
significantly improves their internal processing speed and
throughput to deliver as much as possible of the computer
systems' processing power to the business processes
themselves. According to the current invention the WFMS
engines encompassing a set of control functions are
implemented directly within the DBMS. This contrasts the
state of the art approach which realizes all control
functions within the WFMS themselves. Only stubs
corresponding to these control functions are still
implemented within the WFMS. The main purpose of these
stubs is to exploit the services of the control function
cores within the DBMS. Such an implementation architecture
increases performance of WFMS significantly as the control
functions mainly operate on and within those computer
systems which store the data on the WFMS state. To
implement the control functions of the WFMS within the DBMS
the current invention teaches to exploit the stored
procedure technology.

Abstract: An oxygen concentration sensor comprises a sensor element (10) with

portion (11) is surrounded by cup-like inner and outer covers (31, 32) that have

flowing direction of the gas is substantially perpendicular to the axial direction
of the oxygen concentration sensor (1). Thus, in the gas stream, unburned
substances flow in parallel with the opening of gas hole (23). As a result, the
amount of the unburned substances deposited in the vicinity of the gas hole
(23) can be reduced greatly. And, the amount of the unburned substances
passing through the gas hole (23) can be reduced greatly.
