Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for requesting scheduling of resources to be used for uplink communication of data in a communications system. If the repeated transmission by a user equipment of scheduling requests on an uplink control channel is determined to be unsuccessful, a random access transmission on a random access channel is initiated as a fallback procedure.

Abstract: A heat exchanger valve includes a housing (2) having an inlet, an outlet a valve seat (5) on a valve seat member (24) between inlet and outlet, a valve element cooperating with the valve seat (5) and having a valve element axis, and presetting mechanism having a bushing (9) which is rotatable around the valve element axis and has an opening arrangement cooperating with a counter passage in the housing (2), wherein in the region of the opening arrangement the bushing (9) has a conical form cooperating with a conical counter face (13) and a distance is provided between the bushing (9) and the valve seat member (24). Such a heat exchanger valve should allow a precise pre-setting over a large range. To this end the bushing (9) has at least two notches (14) in an edge (10) facing the valve element member (24), each of the notches (14) forming an opening (25).

Abstract: The invention concerns a control device for at least one heating, air-conditioning, ventilation or refrigeration system with a memory for a temperature control program and a signal outlet. It is endeavoured to simplify the programming. For this purpose, the memory is arranged in an element (5), which comprises a communication interface (6) and which can be dismounted from the control device, the communication interface (6) being connectable to an external input device and the control device (1) comprising an electrical supply device (3) which can transmit electrical energy to the element (5).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and an apparatus for defrosting of frozen crushed meat.

Abstract: A communications network and method thereof include a base station controller configured to provide a repetition period of a primary synchronization channel to be equal to a predetermined integer value times a scrambling code length of the scrambling code of a common pilot channel. A user equipment in the network is configured to search for a known sequence comprising the primary synchronization channel to select a cell and a corresponding sub-frame/symbol timing from the selected cell.

Abstract: In a comminution machine, which is particularly used in industry, with an emulsifier (3), a particularly simple structure with a single driving device for conveying, cutting and emulsifying the material to be chopped is guaranteed when, between a support body (32a) on a stator (32) of the emulsifier (3) and a fulling body (33a) on the corresponding rotor (33), there is a successively narrowing gap (36a) area in which the material to be chopped is exposed to a further constant fulling comminution under pressure. The rotor (33) is rotationally connected with the shaft (4) of the cutting and conveying device of the comminution device. On the rotor (33) a co-axial hub (33c) connected to the fulling body, is provided, with which hub the rotor (33) is fitted on the shaft (4).
