drying space (3) and reintroducing said recirculated air
flow, after it has been at least partially dehumidified,
to the drying air flow (5) and a corresponding laundry drying machine.

Abstract: A device for milking a dairy animal. The device is provided with at any rate at least
one position-measuring device (8) for determining a position of a teat prior to the
milking of the dairy animal and for emitting a position signal corresponding to the
teat position. With a dairy animal having a left rear teat (LA) and a right rear teat (RA) and
having a left front teat (LV) and a right front teat (RV) the position-measuring device (8)
generates individual teat position signals. The device is further provided with a
control unit (5) suitable for determining, on the basis of the four teat position signals
determined before the milking, a first centre (M1) between the left teats, a second
centre (M2) between the right teats, a third centre (M3) between the rear teats and a fourth
centre (M4) between the front teats, for determining a first plane of symmetry (S1)
comprising the first and the second centre, and for determining a second plane of
symmetry (S2) comprising the third and the fourth centre. In this case the planes of
symmetry extend at any rate at least substantially parallel to the teats.

Abstract: In a paper manufacturing process a web (11) of paper or carton feeds between a lower shoe drum (2) with a flexible mantle (5) and a heated overhead drum (3). The two drums form a broad nip (4) between their two faces. The mantle (5) is continually monitored for signs of damage that would indicate the onset of fire. If fire is detected the drums are separated and the web continues through the nip as a fire blanket. Mantle damage is detected by monitoring a change in pressure within a void (8) surrounded by the mantle. The shoe drum is monitored by an optical device e.g. a camera. In the event of a web break the web winds itself around either the top or bottom drum behind the wide nip. The rolled-up web is detached from the drum when the accumulated paper reaches a pre-determined thickness on the drum.

Abstract: The invention is defined by systems, methods and applications for
establishing a short-range communication link between digital devices for the
purpose of transferring data between the devices. The first device generates and
displays a visual code that encodes the address of the first device and the location
of data element desired to be transferred. A second device, which implements
image capture capability, captures the visual code and decodes such to determine
the address of the first device and the location of the data element. Upon decoding,
the second device will automatically initiate the short-range communication link
between the first and second digital devices and the transfer of the data element
from the first device to the second device will ensue.
