  • Patent number: 10710802
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for storing hanging goods (2) in an automated storage system (1), comprising a stationary storage rack (5) with storing regions for the hanging goods (2) in storage levels (13) lying one above the other, and at least one goods transport device (7) having a base frame (30), which is displaceable in a first direction in front of the storage rack (5), and at least one storage and removal device (33) having a goods displacement means (42) which is displaceable relative to the base frame in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The hanging goods are moved by the goods displacement means between a goods receiving carrier (12) associated with one storage region and a goods receiving carrier (34) associated with the goods transport device, the goods receiving carrier (12) remaining in the storage regions in the storage rack (5). The invention further relates to an automated storage system for carrying out said method.

  • Patent number: 6510832
    Abstract: An intake system for an internal combustion engine to avoid water intake, which includes a main air inlet (10), an auxiliary air inlet (11), and an air filter (12). In the main air inlet (10) there is a valve 16 to sealingly close the main air inlet (10) and a moisture sensor (15), which is connected so as to communicate with an evaluator (22) which, in turn, is connected to at least one other sensor (23) disposed outside the intake system and provided to detect other functions. Examples of possible other sensors (23) include rain sensors and/or temperature sensors. The sensor signals are coupled and or correlated in the evaluator (22), and in accordance with a logic which resides in the evaluator (22), a control signal is produced that opens or closes the main air inlet (10) by means of the valve (16), which can be moved into the respective open or closed positions by any of a number of diverse types of drives, such as, electrical, pneumatic, or electro-pneumatic drives.
