Abstract: A system for transmitting time-critical analog signals and/or digital signals between a first device and a second device. The system includes at least a first protocol converter connected to the first device and at least a second protocol converter connected to the second device. A data transmission network for transmission of data packets is provided between the protocol converters. The data transmission network is established by an internet protocol network. The system includes a port redirector associated with at least one of the protocol converters. The port redirector is configured to convert a protocol for serial data transfer into the transmission control protocol, thereby generating the data packets, or to convert the transmission control protocol associated with the data packets into a protocol for serial data transfer. The system is configured to process asynchronous data and synchronous data. Further, a method of transmitting time-critical analog signals and/or digital signals is provided.

Abstract: A control unit (11) that outputs a shift signal to a transmission (4) when the control unit recognizes that the bucket (1) is in a loading position, such that the transmission (4) shifts not to the next-higher gear ratio, but to a further, even higher, gear ratio.

Abstract: A method for holding a vehicle on a gradient. The vehicle has a transmission with an output, a first clutch and a second clutch. The primary sides of the first and second clutches are mechanically operatively connected to one another. The secondary sides of the first and second clutches are mechanically operatively connected to one another and to the output of the transmission. Different transmission ratios can be engaged by way of the first clutch and the second clutch, and the first clutch is in an engaged state. The method includes the additional closure of the second clutch in order to block the transmission and thus hold the vehicle at a standstill on a gradient.

Abstract: A method for controlling the transmission of a working machine, by which, with at least one sensor of the working machine, at least one specific parameter is determined and transmitted to a control unit for controlling the transmission. The working machine has a lifting mechanism and the at least one specific parameter which characterizes an actuation condition of the lifting mechanism. A predetermined shifting strategy is adapted, by the method, as a function of the at least one specific parameter.

Abstract: A method of shifting a transmission in which a clutch, located in the torque flow, in a first gear and in a second gear is controlled in such manner that, in the first gear, the clutch slips and transmits a first torque and, in the second gear, the clutch slips and transmits a second torque. The second torque is chosen such that an output torque of the transmission remains the same when shifting from the first gear to the second gear.

Abstract: Methods for preferentially delivering an active agent intracellularly to a reservoir cell that is infected with or susceptible to infection with an infectious agent, such as HIV. The active agent is part of a lipid-active agent complex that has a targeting ligand, such as a CTL/CTLD receptor-specific anchor, on its outer surface. Targeting systems are also disclosed. Such targeting systems are comprised of lipid-active agent complexes that contain targeting ligands, such as fucose and polyfucose derivatives, on their outer surfaces. The active agents include plant lectins, such as Con-A and MHL, and other drugs. Such methods and targeting systems may be used in the treatment of HIV and other infectious and non-infectious diseases.

Abstract: Void former assembly for casting facing elements for reinforced earth. Anchoring recesses are cast into its rear face so that earth-reinforcing strips can be looped through. The anchoring recesses are each formed as a loop channel having a convex inner surface and a concave outer surface, at least one of which has a radius of curvature which increases from the deepest part of the recess towards the rear face. A removable void former assembly and method for casting such facing elements are also described. Because of the varying radius of curvature of the surfaces of the channel, and the rotational and translational withdrawal path of the void formers, the channel can be cast deeper, and with openings which are closer together, than has hitherto been possible using removable void formers.
