Patent EP-1087212-A3 (EP)
Inventor: AHMED SALEH U
IPC: G01D11/24
Filed: 2000-09-22
Abstract: A networkable smart sensor senses an analog signal and
converts this to a digital signal output. A processed
signal is then communicated to a network. The sensor can
be a stand-alone electronic signal processor sensor or can
be networked for operation with a controller and/or other
sensors. Sensors can operate in a master-slave or peer-to-peer
communication mode. The sensors are for use in
industrial applications including vehicle engines and
processes.

Abstract: Die Erfindung beschreibt ein Konnektionssystem umfassend mindestens ein männliches
Konnektorteil (2) und ein weibliches Konnektorteil (1), die verbindbar sind, sowie
das männliche (2) und weibliche (1) Konnektorteil. Die Kontaktstelle der beiden Konnektorteile
ist vorzugsweise mit einem desinfizierenden Klebstoff (6) versehen, so daß eine
aseptische oder sterile Verbindung herstellbar ist. Dabei weisen beide Konnektionsteile
Sollbruchstellen (8,7) auf, die im konnektierten Zustand übereinanderliegen, so
daß nur eine Bruchstelle innerhalb des Schlauches entsteht, über welche eine
aseptische Fluidführung über zwei Schläuche (3,4) von einem sterilen System zu einem
weiteren sterilen System erfolgen kann. Damit ist eine besonders einfache und
kostengünstige Konnektion geschaffen, die höchsten Sterilitätsansprüchen genügt. 
     Des weiteren ist die Verwendung eines derartigen Konnektorsystems beschrieben.

Abstract: A control valve system has two valve trains (602, 604) each of which has a
series of valves (528, 532; 530, 534) which dynamically move between a deactuated
position and an actuated position. An inlet (514) of the valve system is connected to
an outlet (516) of the valve system when all of the valves are actuated and the outlet
(516) of the valve system is connected to an exhaust (518) when all of the valves are
deactuated. Each valve train (602, 604) includes a solenoid valve (536, 538) which
when actuated moves the remaining valve members to their actuated position. The
various valves (528, 532; 530, 534) of each valve train (602, 604) are interconnected
with the valves (530, 534; 528, 532) of the other valve train such that actuation of all
of the valves in a substantially simultaneous manner will connect the inlet (514) of
the valve system to the outlet (516) of the valve system and deactuation of all of the
valves in a substantially simultaneous manner will connect the outlet to the exhaust.
The valve system monitors the dynamic movement of the valve members during its
operation and will move to a locked out condition when any valve (602, 604) is in a
deactuated position and when the other valve (602, 604) is in an actuated position.
In the locked out condition, the outlet (516) of the valve system is connected to the
exhaust (518). The valve system will remain in this locked out condition until a reset
operation is performed. During a reset operation, the valve system can not actuate
one of the valve trains (602, 604) because one of the valve trains (602, 604) is
depressurized during the reset operation.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and customer contact or call server that provides a
unified queuing mechanism for queuing multiple media requests. The queuing
mechanism includes one or more skillsets each including an idle agent queue and
a pending requests queue. Skillsets are assigned interrupt levels defining the
importance of skillsets with respect to each other. Agents are assigned to and
queued in the idle agent queue of one or more of the skillsets. As media requests
are received in the pending requests queues of skillsets, agents are dispatched to
attend to the requests. As an agent is dispatched from a skillset, it is removed
from other skillsets that have an equal or lower interrupt level, and is maintained
in skillsets that have a higher interrupt level. Consequently, an agent, tending to a
media request, may be interrupted with other media requests only if the other
media requests are queued in skillsets of higher interruptibility level, and if the
agent is assigned to those other skillsets. Media requests include, among other
things, a voice/video call request, an e-mail request, a web form request, and an
outbound voice call request.

Abstract: A digital video signal transmitter allows a high quality and
smooth dynamic image to be reproduced on the receiving side even with
a transmission medium having a low transmission rate. Background plane
data representing a still image of a background video image and one or
more motion plane data representing still images of respective objects
moving on the background image are separated from the input digital
video signal. The separated background plane data and each motion
plane data are stored individually in memories (23BG and 23A1 to 23An).
Change data of the still images stored as the motion plane data is
detected based on the input digital video signal and outputs of the
memories (23BG and 23A1 to 23An) and is compressed and coded by a
coding means (26). Still image data of the plurality of plane data of
the memories (23BG and 23A1 to 23An) and the change information from
