  • Publication number: 20180182591
    Abstract: In order to provide a mount of an anode disk to a rotating shaft that is suitable for increased thermal loads on the anode disk, a rotating anode assembly (10) is provided that comprises an anode disk (12), a rotating shaft (14), and an anode disk support (16). The anode disk is concentrically mounted to a rotating axis (18) of the rotating shaft via the anode disk support, and the anode disk support comprises a first support (20) with a first circular axial support surface (22) that is provided at the rotating shaft in a concentric manner with the rotating axis. Further, the anode disk support comprises a second support (24) with a second axial support surface (26) that is at least temporarily attached to the rotating shaft for urging the anode disk against the first support surface in an axial clamping direction. Still further, the first support is provided as a radially flexible support (28).

  • Publication number: 20040051906
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for representing the halftone of an image. The invention is based upon a combined scanning method with a dither matrix and an error diffusion method. According to the invention, when a halftone value of an image is determined, the colour value of image points which are not arranged next to the image point whose halftone value is being determined are corrected. Several colour values in particular are corrected. According to the inventive method, errors existing when determining a halftone value are distributed over a larger area, enabling predetermined point forms to be substantially maintained by the dither matrix.

  • Patent number: 6525257
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement, with which pressure point characteristics can be simulated, such that a key stroke typical of a cembalo, as well as the key characteristics of an organ can be as near as possible approached and permits the replication of a dynamic key stroke, as well as multiple pressure points during a single key operation. At least one sensor (3) is rigidly arranged for each key (1), from which positional data, about the key, is sent to an analog signal preparation unit and a programmable analytical unit (6), which generates data for an externally connected digital signal processor (7). Each key is coupled to an electromagnet (2), which is controlled by the analytical unit, depending upon the positional data and a current program. The arrangement for the creation of pressure points in keyboards is suitable for piano-like electronic keyboard instruments, electronic cembalos and electronic organs.

  • Patent number: 6280624
    Abstract: Biological wastewater is purified in a sewage treatment plant having an activation tank of a depth greater than approximately 5 m per meter into which a feed of compressed air is fed. An oxygen-containing gas having an oxygen content is increased with respect to the air or pure oxygen and is fed to the mixed liquor in at least a part of the aerobic tank volume of the activation tank. The oxygen containing gas is fed until the total content of the gas in the mixed liquor based upon saturation value is below 150% before the mixed liquor is fed to a secondary clarification.
