  • Patent number: 10533692
    Abstract: A heatable media line includes a connecting part, which establishes an electrical connection, and serves to introduce a heat conductor into a media line section. A connection of the heat conductor with contact-forming parts is set up in an end part, and the heat conductor is tightly accommodated in boreholes of a coupling part by means of two sealing bodies spaced apart from each other, as well as introduced into the media line section by way of a supporting body for purposes of heating a medium flowing in the latter. In order to produce a reliable seal intended to prevent the medium from penetrating into the end part, recesses in the walls of the coupling part and an interruption of a creepage distance are configured between the sealing bodies such that the heat conductor is directly in contact with the surrounding atmosphere.

  • Patent number: 10531330
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes devices, systems, and methods for frame start optimizing in telecommunication systems. Some aspects may involve receiving, by an aggregation device in the telecommunication system, frames from transmitter devices. Some aspects may also involve determining that buffering may be required to sequence the frames for an aggregation operation performed by the aggregation device. The aggregation operation may include a process that combines frames from transmitter devices. In response to determining that the buffering is required, frame adjustment signals may be transmitted to the transmitter devices. The frame adjustment signals may instruct the transmitter devices to transmit subsequent frames such that the buffering is reduced for a subsequent aggregation operation performed by the aggregation device using the subsequent frames.
