Publication number: 20210074132Abstract: Methods for detecting faults in a siren-based alert system include receiving, by a siren device from a central siren controller, an activation command. The activation command identifies a neighbor siren device that is to be activated. Audible alerts output by the neighbor siren device include a unique identifying characteristic associated with the neighbor siren device. The method includes determining that the unique identifying characteristic is not detectable by the siren device and, in response, taking corrective action. The corrective action includes the siren device sending a siren fault notification to the central siren controller indicating a failure to detect the unique identifying characteristic and may also include modifying the audible alert output by the siren device to compensate for the faulty siren device. The siren device may send a siren fault notification to the central siren controller if an unexpected audible alert, such as a potential false alarm, is detected.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2019Publication date: March 11, 2021Inventors: Oren Zakaria, Nissim Gean, Jacob Shem Tov, Irakliy Papiashvily, Alexander Becker, Lionid Kodner, Iftach Sharabi, Ran Pery, Haim Kahlon

Patent number: 9522418Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for producing metal sections having two profile flanges arranged opposite one another and having flange inner faces that are to be kept apart from each other by a closely toleranced final chamber dimension. In order to adapt the chamber dimension from a starting chamber dimension K0 to a desired final chamber dimension K1, the metal section is passed through the device, which forms working gaps between an inner working roll pair and outer support rolls. The working rolls that form the inner working roll pair roll over each other in order to brace the forming forces exerted on the working roll pair from the flange inner faces against each other.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2011Date of Patent: December 20, 2016Assignee: Mannstaedt GmbHInventors: Peter Engel, Alexander Becker, Thomas Voss
