Patent EP-0657582-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TORTI DOMINIQUE
IPC: E01B31/17
Filed: 1994-11-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a machine for grinding the rails of a railway track, advantageously a self-propelled machine. The machine is of the type comprising a chassis (4) supported by flanged wheels (2) bearing on the rails (3) of the railway track, at least one grinding unit (6) provided with a grinder (7) and with a device for driving the grinder in rotation, means for lowering and raising the grinding unit relative to the rail, means for pivoting the unit around the rail (3) to be ground, in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the latter, and means for displacing the unit laterally, forming a means for avoiding obstacles, as well as a device for supporting the grinding unit on the chassis. The machine is characterised in that the means for lowering and raising, the means for pivoting and the means for laterally displacing the grinding unit (6) are incorporated with the said support, so as to form a compact subunit (22) with relatively small dimensions. The invention can be used for treating the rails of a railway track. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the case of this method, a CSMA/CA protocol can be used when transmitting information by means of infrared light or radio (or via other wire-free transmission media). For this purpose, a communication partner who has a transmission requirement and has still not received any bits is designated as the initiating communication partner, and a communication partner who has no transmission requirement but has received a bit is designated as the receiving communication partner. At the start of information transmission, the initiating communication partner sends a start bit (D), which expresses his identification, of twice the length and then waits for a specific time (tc) during which the receiving communication partner sends back an echo in the form of a start bit (B) of single length. The initiating communication partner waits for the echo after each transmitted bit and, when it arrives, compares it with the transmitted bit, interrupting his transmission in the event of inequality. After information transmission and when there is no further transmission requirement, the designation of the initiating communication partner and of the receiving communication partner is cancelled again. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A natural gas vehicle fuel delivery system regulates the pressure of LNG which is vaporized and delivered to an engine. The system employs dual regulator valves (34/31 and 32/33) responsive to the gas phase pressure of the storage tank (10A/10B) to either directly couple vapor produced from a heat exchanger (61/63) to an engine combustion system, or to divert that vapor through another heat exchanger (62A/62B) contained within the tank (10A/10B) itself. This additional heat exchanger (62A/62B) maintains the pressure within the tank (10A/10B) at the desired level despite heavy fuel demands of the engine. The system functions independent of liquid level in the storage tank (10A/10B). When multiple LNG storage tanks (10A, 10B) are used, they are coupled in parallel so that they both produce gas and are concurrently regulated in the gas phase portion. A pressure initializing structure and process are also provided.

Abstract: When a defrosting requirement signal is outputted, the valve travel of a motorized expansion valve (5) is fully closed in a heating cycle so as to recover a refrigerant into a receiver (4). In addition, when a defrosting requirement signal is outputted, a room fan (6f) is stopped so as to store heat. Furthermore, when it is judged that the refrigerant has been recovered, a defrosting operation is effected. In addition, the recovering of refrigerant is completed when a current external heat exchange temperature Tc becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined temperature, when the difference between a current external heat exchange temperature Tc and a reference external heat exchange temperature Tc1 before the motorized expansion valve (5) is fully closed becomes equal to or smaller than a predetermined level, when a current internal heat exchange temperature Tc becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature, or when a predetermined period of time has passed.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE94/01311 Sec. 371 Date May 9, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date May 9, 1996 PCT Filed Nov. 7, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/13532 PCT Pub. Date May 18, 1995The invention relates to a measuring process for the indirect measurement of the temperature and solids content of metal workpieces during inductive heating. To this end, in a coupled coil system comprising a heating coil, the effect of alterations in the electrical conductivity of the workpiece is determined by the combination, using circuit-mathematical techniques, of a signal tapped from the exploring coil with a reference signal from the driving coil. The two signals are combined in such a way that the measurement signal obtained depends solely on the phase shift between the reference signal and the exploring coil signal and/or on the quotient of the amplitude values of the reference signal and the exploring coil signal. This facilitates measurement which is independent of the amplitude of the alternating electromagnetic field created by the driving coil. With the aid of alloy- and geometry-specific calibration curves, the measurement signal can be associated with the particular value being sought (temperature or solids content). In addition, the measurement signal can be used for the continual adjustment of the heating in order to regulate the target value.
