Abstract: A method is specified for charging and simultaneously testing the state of a nickel-cadmium accumulator, in which method measurement phases having discharge intervals of comparatively short duration are incorporated into the charging cycle. During the measurement phases, the internal resistance of the accumulator is measured under different charging and discharging states, the internal resistances are related to one another and are also compared with internal resistances determined in successive measurement phases. These relationships are used to derive a profusion of information items on the different states of the accumulator, with the aid of which the charging process can be controlled and a statement produced on the serviceability state of the accumulator.

Abstract: For the production of shaped articles, fibre mats of low density are compression moulded at elevated temperature. Such fibre mats are produced by spreading a mixture of fibres and binders to form a nonwoven and compressing this at elevated temperature to give a mat. To influence the properties of the shaped article in a specific manner with simultaneous reduction of the binder requirement and of the density, it is proposed that the fibre mat or sections thereof be passed through a pair of rollers having polished roller surfaces and binder be applied from the aqueous phase, by means of at least one roller, to that side of the fibre mat which faces it, with application of slight pressure, and that the fibre mat be passed through the pair of rollers at a lower speed than the peripheral speed thereof and be fed to a drying zone after the pair of rollers. A top layer of a random nonwoven may additionally be applied on the upper and lower surfaces.

Abstract: There is described a supporting web for sheets spread under a roof which comprises a spunbonded web made of polyester filaments. The spunbonded web has a basis weight of 50 to 100 g/m<2> and a filament denier of 1 to 8 dtex. It has been thermomechanically preconsolidated by means of a smoothing calender and end-consolidated with a binder. This produces a high tear propagation resistance and a high nail pull- out resistance and also good dimensional stability at high temperatures. The spunbonded web is therefore particularly suitable for use as a supporting web for bitumenized sheets spread under a roof.

Abstract: A printer is provided which includes a thermal head (24) serving first, second, and third operation modes. In the first operation mode, the thermal head (24) is separate from the platen roller (23) so as to allow a new sheet of printing paper (16) to be inserted, from a roll, for example. In the second operation mode, the thermal head (24) is pressed against the platen roller (23) to via the sheet of printing paper to print an image thereon. In the third operation mode, the thermal head (24) contacts with the platen roller (23), but under only the slight pressure exerted by its own weight to secure the printed paper sheet (16) to cut it into a predetermined size. The provision of the third operation mode wherein little head pressure is exerted on the platen roller also prevents compression set from occurring on the platen roller.

Abstract: This invention relates to an automatic call distributor (ACD) arrangement for economically providing ACD service from remote ACD agents. A remote ACD agent position is located near a local switching system which connects to an ACD host switch via a telecommunication network comprising a common channel signalling facility. The remote ACD agent position and an ACD process at the host switch communicate with each other by sending data messages via the common channel signalling facility and the local switching system. A front-end process at the host switch acts as a data message interface between the remote ACD agent position and the ACD process by performing protocol conversion between the common channel signalling facility message format and the ACD process message format. The front-end process also establishes a voice connection between the host switch and the remote ACD agent position. The ACD process connects incoming customer calls to the remote ACD agent position for servicing of the call by the remote ACD agent. Advantageously, this arrangement permits the complex ACD software to treat remote and local agent positions alike and uses an economic communication arrangement for connecting the remote agent position to the host switch.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing calls to a directory number, shared by a multiple number of terminals, in which a switching system selects a preferred terminal for serving the call based on call answering activity. The switching system establishes a connection to the preferred terminal. This system connection is for use in answering the call at the preferred terminal. Although the system connection is established to the preferred terminal, all the terminals sharing the directory number are enabled to answer the call. The arrangement dynamically selects the preferred terminal rather than establishing an initial system connection to only a statically defined terminal.
