Abstract: A retarder adapted for use on a vehicle comprises: a blower (6) connected to a crankshaft (2) of the vehicle; a clutch (4) provided between the blower (6) and the crankshaft (2) for selectively disconnecting the blower (6) from the crankshaft (2); a speed change mechanism (5) including a plurality of shafts, gears and bearings (13) and provided between the crankshaft (2) and the blower (6); an oil pump (7) driven by an energy transmitted from the clutch (4) and the blower (6) for supplying a lubrication oil to the speed change mechanism (5); a sensor (8) for detecting a pressure of the lubrication oil supplied to the bearing (13) of the speed change mechanism (5); and a control unit (9) for allowing the clutch (4) to disconnect the blower (6) from the crankshaft (2) when the lubrication oil pressure detected by the sensor (8) is below a certain value. The blower (6) consumes an energy of the engine which is transmitted from the crankshaft (2), thereby applying a brake force to the engine. When a trouble, such as a seize up of the bearings (13), occurs in the speed change mechanism (5), the rotation of the shafts of the speed change mechanism (5) is decelerated. Thereupon, the oil pressure from the oil pump (7) drops since the pump (7) is driven by an energy derived from the speed change mechanism (5). An excessive brake force is not applied to the crankshaft (2) since the blower (6) is disconnected from the crankshaft (2) promptly by the control unit (9).

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the conveying of textile material deposited in recipients from a machine discharging textile material to a machine receiving textile material, by means of a self- propelled transport vehicle (F), the travelling control of which takes place from a central control unit (Z). What is disadvantageous with the known systems is that, in spite of a self-propelled transport vehicle which automatically transfers the recipients from one machine to the other, with these systems no fully automatic operation without manual intervention is possible. That means that with these systems the manual intervention in some cases has to take place within short periods of time. According to the invention, it is therefore proposed that the controlling of the transport vehicle for returning the recipients (11) to be taken away from the machine (S1, S2) receiving the textile material to the machine (K1 to K3) discharging the textile material is undertaken by the central control unit on the basis of control signals emitted to the control unit (Z) and that there is provided on the route of the transport vehicle (F) from the machine (S1, S2) receiving textile material to the machine (K1 to K3) discharging textile material a test station (L) for checking the content and/or the state of the recipients located on the transport vehicle and the test station is in connection with the control unit. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In nuclear spin resonance measurements, all the (spin echo) signals are influenced by the transversal relaxation time T2. Said time constant effects an asymmetry in the resonance signal (::exp(-t/T2). The time T2 can be determined from the asymmetry of the echo signals. When determining a nuclear spin density distribution, it is possible to determine the value of the time T2 per pixel. The imaginary expressions (in the coordinate direction of the measuring gradient) are integrated in accordance with the Fourier transform of the resonance signals. The quotient of the running integral and of the real term of the assigned pixel provides an accurate measure of the time T2 in said pixel.
