Abstract: A leading end of the sheet formed by the transverse parting unit (4), is charged by an electrostatic charger (6). This is located after the fresh winding shaft (3) held above the winding station. A blowing unit (7) aims an airflow to act on the leading edge of the sheet, which is directed at or tangentially against the circumference of the new winding shaft. Preferred features: The charger electrode extends transversely across the full width of the sheet; the blower comprises nozzles over the full width. Blower and/or charger move into position for shaft exchange, retracting afterwards. The idler roller (2) is perforated and contains the blower channel, which extends from an inlet in an idler end face and is arranged to blow similarly, towards the new winding shaft. Charger electrode potential is up to 40kV. The contact roller is reversible.

Abstract: A phase change optical recording medium is disclosed including at least a supporting substrate, and recording layer essentially consisting of AgInSbTe alloy compositions feasible of implementing recording and readout steps utilizing the change in reflectivity. The recording medium is characterized by the relation v 0  ≥ 0.7 v WH , where the critical relative velocity of phase change, v 0 , defined by the value of v, at which the differential coefficient, - dR (v) /dv, reaches a maximum, when the recording medium moves against an optical unit during the recording steps at a relative velocity, v, ranging from minimum and maximum relative velocities warranted for the recording medium, V WL  and V WH , respectively. In addition, when the reflectivity is measured with varying erase power P E  at the linear relative scanning velocity v 0 , the reflectivity of the recording layer as a function of erase power, R(P E ), preferably has a minimum. The recording layer included in the recording medium is devised to have an activation energy of deterioration of equal to, or larger than 1.6 eV, which is obtained by measuring asymmetry, A, and calculating according to the equations, k = dt/ dA, and k = k 0  x exp(E a /k B T). The recording medium is also characterized by activation energy of displacement of the boundary, ranging from 1.0 eV to 2.4 eV, which is obtained from the rate of decrease in the area, S, of the amorphous regions as recorded marks with time according to Arrhenius' equation.

housing (1); a small-diameter portion (4a) and a large-diameter
portion (4b) are formed on the outer peripheral

groove (16) formed in the large-diameter portion. A rotating
ring is mounted on the inside bottom surface of the housing;
on the rotating ring is formed a driven gear through a range
of about 90 degrees, and a shield plate is erected in a
position corresponding to the driven gear. Five photo-interrupters
(13a-13e) are arranged astride the shield plate
on the path of rotation of the rotating ring, so that the
position of the rotating ring can be detected by the ON/OFF
operation of the photo-interrupters. On the housing an
intermediate gear (14) is rotatably supported, and is in
constant mesh with the driven gear. On the intermediate gear
are provided a first tooth portion and a second tooth portion,
which are arranged 45 degrees apart from each other. The
first tooth portion faces the small-diameter portion of the
first rotor, while the second tooth portion faces the large-diameter
portion, whereby the intermediate gear is turned
through about 90 degrees by the engaging projections during
one rotation of the first rotor, thus turning the rotating

Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing an in-service upgrade of a switching fabric of a network
element is described. Network traffic is denominated in cells as it passes through the network element.
Prior to the upgrade, an internal header is provided to direct the communication of a cell through the
network element. The internal header has internal routing information to direct the routing of the cell through
the switching fabric of the network element. Additional internal routing information compatible with
upgraded components of a network element is added to the cells passing through the network element. The
additional internal routing information is dependent on the internal routing information previously provided in
the internal header, but differs from the internal routing information in that it supports the upgraded
components of the network element. Thus, prior to the upgrading of a switching fabric in a network
element, the internal routing information is used to route the cells through the non-upgraded network
components, while, after the upgrading of the switching fabric, the additional internal routing information is
used to route cells through the upgraded components of the network element.

Abstract: Relative humidity of air recycled from the coolant evaporator is measured, and represents the saturated state, having passed through the evaporator. Volumetric flowrate Vl of air circulated through the evaporator is determined. From the state equation for humid air, absolute humidities are determined at the evaporator inlet (XRL) and outlet (XZL). The quantity of water stored in the evaporator is given by DELTAX = XRL - XZL.  The equation mW = rho VL DELTAX DELTAt, is used to determine the quantity of water stored during the interval DELTAt at the evaporator, where rhoL is the density of air. Between two defrosting processes, water masses mW determined in this way are summed and compared with an adjustable, desired value. Once this is reached, the defrosting process is initiated.
