Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for echo compensation of at least one microphone signal (y(n)) comprising an echo signal contribution due to a loudspeaker signal (x(n)) in a loudspeaker-room-microphone system, comprising the steps of converting at least a part of the at least one microphone signal to microphone sub-band signals (y μ (n)) down-sampled by a first down-sampling rate (r=r 1 •r 2 ); converting the loudspeaker signal to loudspeaker sub-band signals down-sampled by a second down-sampling rate (r 1 ) less than the first down-sampling rate (r) to obtain first loudspeaker sub-band signals; storing the first loudspeaker sub-band signals down-sampled by the second down-sampling rate; folding the first loudspeaker sub-band signals with an estimate for the impulse response of the loudspeaker-room-microphone system in the predetermined number of sub-bands; down-sampling the folded first loudspeaker sub-band signals by a third down-sampling rate (r 2 ) to obtain for each of the predetermined number of sub-bands an echo signal contribution (d̂ μ (n)) that is in effect down-sampled by the first down-sampling rate; and subtracting for each sub-band the estimated echo signal contribution from the respective microphone sub-band signal to obtain error sub-band signals (e μ (n)).

Abstract: An automatic stepless transmission includes a driving shaft, a driving disk rotatable by the driving shaft, and a clutch assembly rotatable by the driving disk. Two parallel guiding slots are provided on the driving shaft. An eccentric plate with a notch is sleeved onto the driving shaft. A compressible resilient regulation mechanism is disposed between the notch and the driving shaft. The driving disk is installed on the eccentric plate via a bearing. The eccentric plate offsets in relation to the axis of the driving shaft, and at the same time the eccentric plate drives the driving disk offset. The automatic stepless transmission can compress or release the resilient regulation mechanism according to loads. The eccentricity between the eccentric plate and the driving shaft can therefore be adjusted, and the eccentric plate can drive the driving disk to move. Thus, the eccentricity of the driving disk can be regulated without manual work. The transmission has a simple structure and can be operated easily. It can adjust the transmission ratio automatically. Therefore the cost and the failure rate can be reduced efficiently.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method of supplying gas or a gas mixture to the inside of partly formed packages in a filling machine before a subsequent filling and sealing of the packages involves supplying the gas or gas mixture as at least one flow into the package via an opening in the package. The supply is made such that the at least one flow flows into the package to the inner region of the package and thereafter returns back through the opening. The method also involves temporarily catching the return flow from the package in a delimited space outside the opening, and directing the return flow out from the space in such a way that a substantially vertical flow along the outer envelope surface of the package is formed.
