Abstract: A method and apparatus for weighing by a conveyor-type weighing unit is disclosed, where a conveyor belt forming an endless loop is transported along a guiding unit, defining a first conveying direction and extending in-between the top sides of opposite arranged rollers. The guiding unit is tilted upwardly from the horizontal plane and thereby forming an upwardly inclined path for the belt. The conveyor belt is equipped with dividers forming a number of object receiving slots. Thereby, it is possible to conduct weighing of a single object without disturbance from the next object.

Abstract: The present invention relates to charging of communications using chargeable resources of a first communication system and a second communication system wherein at least one of said communication systems provides wireless communication services. In accordance with the method, after a set-up procedure for communications initiated a first procedure for obtaining a first charging component is triggered, the first charging component being associated with the first communication system and determined based on a first charging model. If required, a second procedure for obtaining a second charging component is also triggered, the second charging component being associated with the second communication system and determined based on a second charging model. Information associated with the communications in the first and second communication systems is processed simultaneously to obtain the respective first and second charging components. The first and second charging components are combined to obtain a total charge. A prepaid balance is then decreased during the communications based on the total charge.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de contrôle de processus devant être appliqué à une structure à motifs dans un cycle de production. Ledit procédé consiste à utiliser des données de référence qui sont représentatives de signatures de diffraction correspondant à un groupe de champs différents dans une structure similaire à la structure à motifs de la chaîne de fabrication (PL). Le groupe des différents champs est caractérisé par des paramètres de processus différents utilisés pour la fabrication de ces champs. Ledit procédé met en oeuvre un système expert (14) conçu pour réagir à des données d'entrée représentatives d'une signature de diffraction de manière à produire des données de sortie représentatives de paramètres efficaces correspondants du processus. Des mesures optiques sont effectuées sur la structure à motif dans la chaîne de fabrication aux fins de l'obtention de signatures de diffraction de ladite structure et de la génération de données mesurées correspondantes. Le système expert analyse les données mesurées de manière à déterminer les paramètres efficaces du processus mis en oeuvre sur la structure à motifs dans la chaîne de fabrication.

Abstract: A crane tower device includes a basket that supports a tower crane and sits within a bay formed by the vertical columns of a building under construction. The basket and the tower crane are supported by support stubs that are attached to the vertical columns.
