  • Patent number: 7715283
    Abstract: A method for storing information, in particular audio signals, received via radio, in particular broadcast radio, the received information being written to a first memory, where the information stored in the first memory is overwritten by newly received information, preferably no later than when the memory capacity of the first memory is exceeded by the sum of the information stored in the first memory, and where in response to a record command all or part of the information present in the first memory is transferred into a second memory. As a result, even when playback of information which is of interest to the user has already begun, the latter can nevertheless record the entire information unit, for example the whole piece of music, part of which has already been played back, in its entirety right from the beginning.

  • Publication number: 20080207389
    Abstract: A transmission-hub unit (1) for a wind energy installation includes transmission (3) including a single piece rotatably supported transmission part (12, 27) which comprises the input gear wheel (1 1) of the transmission (3) as well as the blade-hub (2). Preferably, only two radial bearings (16, 18) for the support of the blade-hub (2) and the gear wheel (11) are provided. Additionally, axial bearings may be provided. A particularly compact, short, and light-weight arrangement for the transmission (3) and the blade-hub (2) is obtained thereby. The concept is particularly suitable for large wind energy installations.

  • Patent number: 6703948
    Abstract: A method of decoding digital audio data is described; it is used to implement error concealment as a function of an error count in which the preceding data is also taken into account. Therefore, equalizer values, through which dequantization of the received digital audio data is implemented, are determined. The equalizer values are either stored or computed. If the error count is greater than a predetermined highest threshold value, a muting is activated. If the error count is less than the lowest predetermined threshold value, no equalizer values are used for dequantization.

  • Patent number: 5911292
    Abstract: A braking and/or clutch arrangement has a cooling system which is sealed off with respect to excess pressure. Liquid coolant is fed under pressure to friction elements and first comes in contact with the surface areas of the friction elements whose relative speed is the highest. The operating device required for operating the friction elements is connected with the clutch half which in the operation is subjected to lower rotational accelerations to reduce heat formation.
