Abstract: The present invention provides a coin-detection station comprising a frame in which a passage for coins is provided. In use, the coins roll on one side along an underside of the passage. The passage is provided with at least one radiation source arranged on a side thereof for emitting radiation across the width of the passage in the direction of at least one radiation sensor. The at least one radiation sensor is designed to emit a detection signal which indicates the passing of a coin. The passage is furthermore provided with a movable first closure element for closing off a first end of the passage. If desired, the passage is provided with a second closure element which can be moved synchronously with the first closure element and closes off a second end of the passage which is situated opposite the first end. Operating means provided on the frame serve to move the first closure element and the second closure element between the first and the second position.

Abstract: When the vehicle speed change rate is equal to or higher than a predetermined value due to hard deceleration or hard acceleration (step ST2, step ST3), determination of the currently-selected gear based on the ratio of the engine speed to the vehicle speed which corresponds to the gear ratio (NVR) is prohibited, and the gear that is determined immediately before the prohibition is continuously set as the currently-selected gear (step ST7). According to this determination terminating control, it is possible to avoid an erroneous determination on the currently-selected gear, even if the calculated NVR is lower or higher than the theoretical NVR because of a delay in calculation of the vehicle speed due to hard deceleration or hard acceleration. As a result, it is possible to avoid the problem that, for example, a downshifting instruction is erroneously issued when 1st gear has been selected or an upshifting instruction is erroneously issued when the highest gear has been selected.

Abstract: Method and device for growing a plant. In particular, a device intended for accommodating the quick-growing stem of tomato, cucumber and sweet pepper plants. It is proposed to wind up the stem from the bottom in such a manner that the plant continuously extends in the cultivation space at the same height. Winding up of the stem in a simple manner is possible, as a result of which the latter extends about the winding point in a coiled manner. The end of the stem is arranged in a substrate carrier, such as a gutter, which also rotates. According to another variant, the stem is pressed into substrate material during winding up, resulting in the plant forming roots, so that the part of the stem which is already developed can be cut off.
