Abstract: Device for sealing gap between a shaft (2) and a machine housing (3) has a compensator (14) connected to a sealing and bearing housing (10) by an inner annular fastener (23) and to the machine housing by an outer annular fastener (25). An elastic bridging component (24) is situated between the fasteners. The bearing housing, inner fastener and outer fastener all have seating recesses (26, 27, 28). The bridging component has two elastomeric sealing rings (24a, 24b) which fit into these seating recesses.  The device for sealing the gap between a shaft (2) and a machine housing (3) comprises a sealing and bearing housing (10) which surrounds the shaft and contains a anti-friction bearing device (11) and a row of sealing lips (13) which follows alterations in the shaft due to bending or thermal expansion. A compensator (14) for these variations is connected to the sealing and bearing housing by an inner annular fastener (23) and to the machine housing by an outer annular fastener (25). An elastic bridging component (24) is situated between the fasteners. The bearing housing, inner fastener and outer fastener all have seating recesses (26, 27, 28). The bridging component has two elastomeric sealing rings (24a, 24b) which fit into these seating recesses.

Abstract: Printer control prevents a user from pulling printed roll paper before it is cut off the roll while still providing the printed paper quickly to the user. When the printing of the paper ends and before cutting the paper by a paper cutting mechanism (13) is completed, paper is ejected from an ejection opening (11) by driving ejection rollers (15, 16). When a paper sensor (17) detects the trailing end of paper, paper is held by ejection rollers (16) to hold the trailing end of the paper ejected from ejection opening (11) and wait for the user to remove the paper from the opening. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the planning and erection of wind power installations the visual impairments to be expected of the wind power installation on the environment are playing an increasingly important part in terms of approval and acceptance. If for example a wind power installation is positioned in the proximity of a residential building, it is possible in adverse positions of the sun, that the wind power installation or the rotor thereof is between the sun and the residential building. If the sunshine is not affected by clouds the rotor as it rotates continuously casts a shadow thereof on the plot of land. The shadow projection caused by the wind power installation on the adjacent area of ground is often perceived by the residents as being a very severe nuisance. Even if the wind power installation satisfies the requirements in terms of legal requirements for planning permission, there is however not always a guarantee that the unwanted shadow effect is prevented.The object of the present invention is to provide a wind power installation by means of which the problems of casting shadows are overcome.1. A method of operating a wind power installation which shuts down at a predetermined position of the sun if the light intensity is above a predetermined value (shut-down intensity).

Abstract: There is described an actuator comprising an outer tube and an inner tube. In the actuator there is provided a spindle co-operating with a bushing for creating the displacement of the actuator by means of a motor. In order to establish an end stop in a secure way for preventing a wedging of the spindle and the bushing in extreme positions for the actuator, the bushing is disposed rotatable in relation to both tubes as it is arranged rotatable in a bushing housing. The actuator is arranged so that friction between the bushing and the bushing housing is greater that the friction occurring between the spindle and the bushing. Hereby rotation of the spindle will displace the bushing along the spindle until it reaches an extreme position. By an extreme position a pin on the bushing will hit a pin mounted in the spindle. At contact between the two pins the friction between the bushing and the housing is overcome, whereby the bushing will perform a continuous rotation together with the spindle without any risk of its wedging against and end face in the tubes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de désulfuration d'au moins un catalyseur de stockage de NOx disposé dans le tuyau d'échappement d'un moteur à combustion interne. La désulfuration est initialisée après qu'ait été atteinte une valeur limite pouvant être prédéterminée, correspondant au rapport des concentrations en NOx amont et avale du catalyseur de stockage de NOx en fonction de la masse de NOx stockée dans le catalyseur de stockage de NOx. Pour permettre la désulfuration, le catalyseur de stockage de NOx est porté à une température de désulfuration minimale et on donne au moteur à combustion interne un mode de fonctionnement tel que μ ≤ 1, ce mode de fonctionnement et/ou cette température minimale pouvant être atteints lorsque l'on joue au moins temporairement sur au moins un des paramètres de fonctionnement du moteur à combustion interne (mesure). Selon l'invention, lorsque la valeur limite est atteinte, au moins un premier paramètre du moteur à combustion interne (12) est fixé, ce paramètre permettant l'augmentation de la température des gaz d'échappement et assurant au moteur à combustion interne un mode de fonctionnement tel que μ ≤ 1. Si la température minimale n'a pas été atteinte après une durée pouvant être prédéterminée, au moins un autre paramètre permettant l'augmentation de la température des gaz d'échappement et assurant au moteur à combustion interne (12) un mode de fonctionnement tel que μ ≤ 1, est fixé.

Abstract: A telecommunications system and method is disclosed for allowing an ongoing Time of Arrival (TOA) based positioning of a mobile station to proceed if a radio related handover has occurred before the expiration of a delta timer in a Base Station Controller (BSC). The BSC stores an HOTIMER value therein, which corresponds to the amount of time involved in a normal radio-related handover procedure from the sending of a Handover Command to the reception of a Handover Complete message. If the BSC delta timer is active, e.g., positioning is ongoing, and the BSC determines that a radio related handover is needed, the BSC checks the amount of time remaining in the BSC delta timer. If that amount is more than the HOTIMER, then the ongoing positioning is not canceled.

Abstract: A rotary blancher that is substantially sealed during operation to increase food product heating speed and efficiency. The blancher has a sealed housing, a novel substantially sealed food product inlet, and a novel substantially sealed food product outlet. A heat transfer medium, such as water or only steam, is introduced into the blancher to heat the food product inside the blancher. During operation, food products are substantially continuously introduced into the blancher through the food product inlet, processed by the blancher, and thereafter discharged from the blancher through the food product outlet. As a result, a greater amount of food products can be more quickly heated to a desired temperature using a blancher of this invention as compared to a blancher that is not sealed.
