Patent CA-2164682-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KICKUTH REINHOLD
IPC: C02F3/04
Filed: 1995-12-07
Abstract: The inflow control means comprise either a contact buffer or a buffer reservoir and pump means or both in combination with the inlet of a soil-based filter bed like a root space installation.   The   contact   buffer   is   in  direct   flow communicating contact with an upper section of the filter bed on the infiltration side and dimensioned in adaptation to the throughput capacity of the soil-based filter bed such that variations in the waste water inflow are evened out. The same effect is achieved by the buffer reservoir and pump means wherein  the  pump  delivers  waste  water  from  the  buffer reservoir to the inlet and excess waste water is returned from the inlet to the buffer reservoir through a return line having a receiving end at a level which is preferably adjustable relative to the top surface of the filter bed. For evening out large  differences  in  the waste water  inflow,  the  contact buffer and the buffer reservoir including the pump means are preferably  combined  such  that  the  buffer  reservoir  flow communicates with the cotact buffer. The pump means, then, are adapted to be operated in the event that the variation in the waste  water  inflow  exceeds  the  predetermined  waste  water inflow variations buffered by means of the contact buffer.

Abstract: An apparatus for conveying panels, such as vehicle body side panels to and from work stations located at spaced locations along a conveyor includes a panel support frame mounted on the conveyor for movement along the conveying path with the support frame in an elevated generally horizontal conveying position.  The support frame carries a plurality of mechanically actuable releasable clamps adapted to retain a panel engaged against a group of locator pads fixedly mounted on one side of the support frame.  A second group of locator pads movably mounted on the frame are normally biased into engagement with the panel at spaced locations around its periphery to hold the panel in a predetermined position laterally of the support frame.  The support frame mounts an actuator member coupled to all of the clamps to position all clamps in a panel clamping position when the actuator member is in a first position and to position all clamps in a panel release position when the actuator is in a second position.  A coupling member on the support frame normally locks the actuator member against movement from either of its positions. The conveyor includes a manipulator operable when the support frame is at a work station to pivot the support frame downwardly from its conveying position to a downwardly inclined transfer position.  Actuating devices located on the fixed frame at the work station are operable when the support frame is in its transfer position to release the coupling member, disengage the movable locator pads and shift the clamp actuator member between its first and second positions.

Title: Data transmission system with sliding-window data flow control
Inventor: AHOPELTO JUHA-PEKKA
IPC: H04L47/27
Filed: 1996-05-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a digital data transmission system with a non-transparent circuit-switched data connection (V.110) between a transmitting (A) and a receiving party (B), whose nominal data transmission rate may vary during a call. The data connection uses a sliding-window data flow control protocol involving transmission of data frames in a preset order, checking the order of received data frames based on this order information, acknowledgement of property received data frames and retransmission of incorrect or missing data frames. The transmissing party (A) may temporarily group the data frames, whereby the resulting "wrong" order of frames inside the group or between groups may cause unnecessary retransmissions. In the invention this is eliminated so that the receiving party (B), upon detection of a missing data frame, delays the transmission of a retransmission request for a period of time that will ensure that the missing frame has not been sent later.
