Title: Device for protecting electrical installation against arcing between supply lines - has one end of fuse in path of arc, causing fuse to melt if arc occurs and releasing pin that activates switch to short-circuit main supply and trip main protection
Inventor: SORG GILBERT
IPC: H01H85/44
Filed: 1996-08-01
Abstract: The electrical protection device is applied to the incoming supply, and has a component (1) that is destructible when it makes contact with the arc. An electrical contact (7) produces a short-circuit that activates the main line protection (8) if an arc fault is detected. The presence of the arc is detected by a fuse (1) with one end positioned in the path of any arc that occurs. Melting of this fuse releases a pin (6) which activates the electrical contact (7) to produce a short-circuit that will activate the main protection.

Title: Adaptive correction method for block-wise received data bits
Inventor: NOEHR BJARNE JENSEN
IPC: H04B1/713
Filed: 1997-01-27
Abstract: The method involves forming binary sample values through r-fold over-sampling of a binary data stream. A combination is respectively formed from each two, successive sample values, through which a binary value change in the data stream is recognizable. Sums are formed from the connections, whereby at each of r sums, the summing starts continuously with one of the first r connections, and adds each r-th connection from thereon. Smoothing values are formed from the sums, under consideration of at least one adjacent sum. The phase position of the sample values at the binary value change of the data stream is given through the maximum smoothing value, and the r smoothing values are associated to the respective r sample values within a time duration corresponding to one data bit. Reception data are reconstructed from the sample values, whereby the sample values are weighed and summed up, and the values of the weights rise with a rising value of the associated smoothing values.

Patent DE-19720697-A1 (DE)
Inventor: SCHENK ROBERT DR
IPC: H02P27/04
Filed: 1997-05-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling an asynchronous machine, which is operated below a cut-off frequency in the basic rotation speed range with a variable magnetization current and above the cut-off frequency in the field weakening range. The maximum possible fundamental frequency of the stator current (U1) is determined from the available intermediate circuit voltage or battery voltage (UB). A stator current (I1) is predefined as a set value and impressed upon the asynchronous machine. Said rotor frequency (f2alg) is calculated so as to impress the set current value upon setting the stator voltage (U1). The rotor frequency (f2) pertaining to the set current value (I1) is compared with the calculated rotor frequency (f2alg) by means of a characteristic control curve. The higher rotor frequency value thereof is used to determine the set current value. The inventive method is carried out using a microprocessor enabling the calculation algorithm to be processed quickly, effectively and close to real-time. This enables energy available in electric vehicles to used in an optimum manner.

Title: Weighing bulk goods from silo
Inventor: WEBER CHRISTIAN
IPC: G01G17/06
Filed: 1997-06-03
Abstract: The method involves periodically operating a silo closure member (13), to release a variable amount of goods into a container (16). To compensate for the afterflow of bulk goods between the closure member and the container after closure of the member, the amount of goods for the next dispensing process is adjusted. A correction value is calculated from the difference between the set amount and the weighed actual amount, and the amount is weighted by a weighting factor (K1,K2). The weighting factor is set differently for sequential dispensing processes.

Patent DE-19739367-A1 (DE)
IPC: F24D19/10
Filed: 1997-09-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for monitoring the operation of thermal solar installations. The energy supplied to a consumer and determined according to the inventive calorimetric method is compared to the energy which must be supplied per charge cycle to the heat consumer as a function of the internal energy of the energy collector, the connecting lines and the heat exchanger. The amount of heat conveyed is determined by electronic iteration of a volumetric flow rate, which is allocated to the running time of the feed device. Said flow rate is determined as a volume of a measuring section and divided by the duration of a temperature slope of said measuring section. Said allocation can also occur using signals of a volumetric flow rate sensor.

Title: Determining the covering ability of lacquer
Inventor: GRADISCHNIG HANSPETER
IPC: G01J3/46
Filed: 1997-12-09
Abstract: The method comprises forming measuring strips on a test plate with several parallel background stripes, each formed of one of the different colored backgrounds. The strips are formed by the application of the base lacquer layer with a layer thickness which increases along the length of the strip. The lacquer is dried. The test plate is moved relative to a color meter and a device for measuring layer thickness so that at measurement points distributed along the measuring strip the color values of the individual strips and the respective layer thickness of the base layer are measured. The smallest layer thickness at which the strips have the same color provides the coating capability of the lacquer. An Independent claim is included for the use of the method for coating cars.
