Abstract: An attraction system includes a projector configured to project imagery and a rotating assembly including a mirror, wherein the rotating assembly is positioned with respect to the projector such that the imagery projected by the projector deflects off the mirror and onto a projection surface, and the rotating assembly is configured to rotate the mirror to adjust a positioning of the imagery deflected onto the projection surface via the mirror.

Abstract: A crane controller for a crane includes: a sliding position sensor for sensing a sliding position of a crane sliding arm, and a memory for storing entries for limit values for an operating parameter of the crane characteristic of the instantaneous crane load. Entries for maximum permissible limit values are stored in the memory for at least two sliding positions of the crane sliding arm. The crane controller also has an overload monitoring means, and a limit value for at least one operating parameter of the crane can be specified by the overload monitoring means of the crane controller. The limit value is specified by the overload monitoring means based on the stored entries according to the sliding position of the crane sliding arm. A limit value between the stored entries with respect to magnitude can be specified for a further sliding position between the stored sliding positions of the crane sliding arm.

The system allows the at least one user to conduct and store the plurality of machine safety audits in a simple, secure and cost-effective manner.

Abstract: Trap for mosquito mainly constituted by a base (2) , a basket (3) and a cover (4), characterized in that: the base (2) has a clear colour, contrasting with respect to the one of the basket (3); the basket (3) has a dark colour, contrasting with respect to the one of the base (2); the cover (4) is mainly constituted by a covering member (8) and by partitions which can be fixed with greater length than the one of the height of the basket (3) so that the covering member (8) does not rest onto the edge (9) of the basket (3) and leaves then an opening (10), wherein the partitions delimitate niches and house adhesive disposable slips of paper, whereon the mosquitoes remain attached.

Abstract: An operator shielded X-ray imaging system has sufficiently low mass (less than 300 kg) and is compact enough to enable portability by reducing operator shielding requirements to a minimum shielded volume. The resultant shielded volume may require a relatively small mass of shielding in addition to the already integrally shielded X-ray source, intensifier, and detector. The system is suitable for portable imaging of well cores at remotely located well drilling sites. The system accommodates either small samples, or small cross-sectioned objects of unlimited length. By rotating samples relative to the imaging device, the information required for computer aided tomographic reconstruction may be obtained. By further translating the samples relative to the imaging system, fully three dimensional (3D) tomographic reconstructions may be obtained of samples having arbitrary length.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for separating and measuring the amount of the glycosylated hemoglobin fractions in a blood sample. The method and apparatus provide a means for lysing sample red blood cells and, in the same container, separating the glycosylated hemoglobin fractions from the other residual hemoglobin fractions through the utilization of a polymeric material.

Abstract: An apparatus for securing assembly plates in washing or spraying installations of heat exchangers, particularly cooling towers, with at least two layers of vertical assembly plates, with the layers being disposed one above the other and the assembly plates in each layer, respectively, being arranged parallel to one another, and from layer to layer at a predetermined spacing as well as at a predetermined angle with respect to each other. A spacer is arranged diagonally to the angularly crossing assembly plates, which spacer is provided with lower and upper guide slots under the circumstances oriented at half the crossing angle with respect to its longitudinal extent. The guide slots of each set run parallel to one another. The upper and lower guide slots respectively run in the crossing angle relative to each other and have contact surfaces respectively formed spaced apart corresponding to the predetermined spacing of the assembly plates of the layers which are disposed one above the other.
