Abstract: A conveyor belt (1) leading to a sorting device (2) comprises two superimposed functional sections (3, 12), which are connected to each other via deflected intermediate sections. As a result, the structural length of the conveyor belt (1) is reduced.

Abstract: A device for monitoring the travel time of mail shipments and including a motion sensor, a memory for compiling the measured motion values, an electronic evaluation unit and a current supply. The motion sensor, the memory for the measured values, the electronic evaluation unit and the current supply are arranged on a partially flexible support or circuit board that is configured such that it includes rigid circuit board portions for the arrangement of the motion sensor, the memory for the measured values and the electronic evaluation unit as well as the current supply and these rigid circuit board portions are connected with one another by flexible circuit board portions or components.

Abstract: Disclosed is a multi-dimensional parallel storing device, particularly for use in digital storing of picture elements scanned according to a scanning pattern. The device includes a plurality of multi-dimensional storage elements each being provided with an address-computing circuit. The address-computing circuit is assembled of a subcircuit for the recursive computation of a storage element of a distinguished or reference array point for a linear storing function after shifting of the window; a subcircuit for recursive computation of a reference array point for an isotropic addressing function; a translator for isotropic, preferably linear, storing function to determine a spacing vector of an array point for which the address computation is being performed and which is stored in a storage element pertaining to the referenced array point; and an arrangement for ascertaining the address of an arbitrary storage element.
