  • Publication number: 20230272646
    Abstract: A door arrangement contains a door for a room with a door leaf, a wall portion of a wall structure laterally adjacent to the door, and a locking arrangement for the door. The locking arrangement includes a locking device in the door leaf with a blocking element, which can be moved in and contrary to a blocking direction in order to block or release the door, and a lock actuator in the wall portion with a first mechanical actuating element, which is unconnected to the blocking element in order to shift the blocking element, by mechanical contact pressure, from the movement position into the blocking position and vice versa. A control and information system contains the door arrangement, a control device for the lock actuator, a human/machine interface, and a communication interface for an authorized body different from the user.

  • Publication number: 20230082864
    Abstract: A lock module for a door in an aircraft has a lock with a blocking element and a non-self-locking drive for moving the blocking element. A blocking sensor detects a blocked position and an unblocked position of the blocking element. A control unit receives a blocking signal from the sensor and activates the drive based on the blocking signals of the blocking sensor(s). A module portion of the door leaf has at least the lock, the drive, and the blocking sensor structurally integrated therein. There is also described a door for the space with a lock module where the door leaf of the door contains the module portion, and a space of an aircraft which is closed by the door.

  • Publication number: 20160054465
    Abstract: A method of spectrum restoring and broadening to produce high resolution seismic data from a plurality of shot records in a seismic survey is described. The method includes the steps of: dividing each shot record into a plurality of windows, in which each of the relevant variables is practically constant, and wherein each window contains one or more trace segments; forward modelling of spectral signatures for any ghost reflections in the shot records using a best estimate of all known parameters, such that every trace segment will have an observed and a (prior) modelled spectral signature; calculating an inverse operator to correct the spectral notches in every trace segment using a constrained set of final fitted values for all the relevant variables; and, recombining the processed trace segments to produce a final set of shot records whereby, in use, the deleterious effects of the ghost reflections in the shot records can be substantially eliminated.

  • Publication number: 20090287466
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for carrying out at least one task for calculating at least one signal to be simulated in real time by a task manager implemented on a data processing system with a real-time operating system in software, which manager periodically starts a task after a time period that is given or can be given which task calculates at least one output signal from at least one given input signal which output signal is a function of it, characterized in that a set of at least two different tasks with different calculation times for calculating the same at least one signal to be simulated is stored in an executable manner in the data processing system, and at least one minimal task has a calculation time shorter than the time period, in which the task manager starts at least one of the tasks from the set according to a stored strategy with which a calculation result of at least one of the tasks from the set is obtained while maintaining the real time within the given time period.

  • Publication number: 20090031983
    Abstract: An air filter for an air intake system of a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine has a housing with a first housing part and a second housing part. A filter element is arranged between the housing parts. An untreated air side of the air filter is formed in the first housing part and a clean air side of the air filter is formed in the second housing part. The first housing part has a housing opening for conducting untreated air into the housing and the second housing part has a housing opening for discharging clean air out of the housing. Further, the housing has a third housing opening for conducting untreated air into the housing, with the housing holding a switchable flap arrangement for opening and closing the third housing opening. The flap arrangement can be activated as a function of operating states of the internal combustion engine. This allows variable, in particular large air masses to be passed through an air filter on account of the further housing opening.

  • Publication number: 20090025671
    Abstract: An air intake system of a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine has a first collecting chamber and a second collecting chamber. An inflow line supplies intake air to the first collecting chamber. First regions of a plurality of ram pipes are connected to the first collecting chamber and guided through the second collecting chamber and opening out into second regions of the ram pipes. The second regions are arranged outside of and connected to the second collecting chamber. The first regions of the ram pipes are arranged within the second collecting chamber and have adjustable sections. When the adjustable sections of the intake pipes are in one position, intake air is sucked in directly through the first and second regions of the ram pipes. When they are in a second position, intake air is sucked into the second collecting chamber and from the latter into the second regions of the ram pipes. An overflow chamber device connects the first collecting chamber and the second collecting chamber to one another.

  • Publication number: 20080149061
    Abstract: A method checks the adjustment of the length or volume of an intake manifold in an internal combustion engine which, when there is a functionally capable adjustment of the length of the intake manifold, is operated with a first, comparatively large intake manifold length when there is a first, comparatively low rotational speed, and is operated with a second, comparatively small intake manifold length when there is a second, comparatively high rotational speed. In the method, a measure is formed for an actual value of the power or of the torque of the internal combustion engine from operating parameters which are sensed for controlling the internal combustion engine during its operation. The measure is compared with a predetermined setpoint value, and the check is carried out in dependence on the result of the comparison. In addition, a control unit is configured to carry out the method.
