Patent number: 10077743Abstract: A hot gas valve has a housing, in which a gas duct is formed with an inlet and an outlet, and a valve device for controlling the fluid flow through the gas duct. The housing has at least one cooling duct for liquid cooling of the housing, wherein the gas duct is shielded with respect to the housing by means of a thermal shield, which consists of a material which has a greater thermal stability than the material of which the housing consists. The valve device has a closure body situated in the gas duct, which closure body is held on a valve shaft mounted in the housing by means of at least one bearing. The bearing may consists of a material having good thermal conductivity. The valve shaft is sealed by an elastomer shaft sealing ring on the side of the bearing facing away from the gas duct.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2015Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: BORGWARNER ESSLINGEN GMBHInventors: Bernd Bareis, Hans-Ulrich Gross, Till Neumann

Patent number: 9638332Abstract: A valve for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a housing which contains a passage for conducting exhaust gases. In the passage is arranged a closing body with which the passage can be closed. The closing body is fastened in a rotationally fixed manner to a shaft, which is mounted rotatably in the housing, and can be pivoted together with the shaft about the rotation axis of the shaft. The closing body has a partition, which runs perpendicularly to the rotation axis of the shaft, and has a circular outer contour which is sealed off from the housing and divides the passage into a first duct and a second duct. When the closing body is in the closed position both the first and second ducts are closed. When the closing body is in an open position the exhaust gasses can pass through the first and second ducts.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2016Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: BorgWarner Esslingen GmbHInventors: Hans-Ulrich Gross, Dirk Michael Strubel

Publication number: 20070030840Abstract: The present invention relates to the selection of a channel coding scheme for communications in a wireless communication system. In the described arrangement, a cell-based channel coding scheme is selected from a plurality of available channel coding schemes based on the channel coding schemes used in the cell. The stored selected channel coding scheme can then be used on initiation of a communication with the subscriber device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2004Publication date: February 8, 2007Inventors: Robert Stoiber, Ulrich Gross, Jose Galve, Kurt Wagentristl

Patent number: 4618766Abstract: In order to find criteria for the adjustment of an optimum focus, lens correction, specimen shift and the like, measurements are performed by means of a beam wobbler and the corresponding generation of a variable F(s)=.THETA..vertline.(Xi-Yi+s).vertline.* in order to determine that s-value for which F(s) is a minimum. Using this image shift value is then used to make a correction preferably automatically.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 1985Date of Patent: October 21, 1986Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventors: Karel D. van der Mast, Ulrich Gross

Patent number: 4162372Abstract: A device for electronically simulating vibrato, chorus, and pseudostereo effects and the radiation effects produced by a rotary loudspeaker with the aid of two loudspeakers or loudspeaker combinations, in which device a controllable amplifier is associated with each loudspeaker, the audio signal being applied to these amplifiers both directly and via a delay means, and both the delay and the gain of the amplifiers being varied synchronously by a subaudio-frequency generator.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 1977Date of Patent: July 24, 1979Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventor: Ulrich Gross

Patent number: 4142433Abstract: In order to simplify the intricate wiring in known automatic bass chord systems and to reduce the number of separate decoders used therein for all chords of each key, an apparatus is provided which allows the use of only one decoder per chord type. When a chord is held one bit is applied to the inputs of a first 12-bit shaft register which correspond to the tones of the chord, after which all bits are shifted further by an HF clock pulse until this chord pattern has arrived at those outputs of the 12-bit shift register which, with the inputs of the decoder which corresponds to the chord being held, are assigned to a single pre-selected tonality.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 1976Date of Patent: March 6, 1979Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventor: Ulrich Gross

Patent number: 4142434Abstract: In an electronic musical instrument with two tone generators of which the frequency of the tones produced by them is substantially constant for the first generator a priori and for the second generator not until after a final value is reached which corresponds to the frequency of the corresponding tone of the first generator, the frequency of the first generator is applied to a first input and that of the second generator to a second input of a frequency comparator circuit, whose output is connected to a control input of the second generator via control device. This ensures that the repeated readjustments of the control quantities necessary in known instruments are no longer necessary.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 1975Date of Patent: March 6, 1979Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventor: Ulrich Gross
