  • Patent number: 9580295
    Abstract: Systems and methods for fuel dispenser security are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a user seeking access to a protected function of the fuel dispenser is presented with a challenge that is encrypted using a secret key that is unique to the fuel dispenser. To access the secured function, the user must obtain a session password from a server which authenticates the user, decrypts the challenge using a counterpart of the secret key, determines whether the user is authorized to access the secured function, and returns the session password extracted from the challenge only when the user is authorized. The server can thus control access to certain fuel dispenser functions according to a set of user access privileges. The challenge can also include additional information which can be used by the fuel dispenser and/or by the server to store a log of access activity.

  • Publication number: 20090042504
    Abstract: A system, in accordance with the invention, relates to ventilating a tunnel 1 in the event of fire or emission of gases C or aerosols. The system comprises a tunnel cover 20 and a mobile fan 21. The tunnel cover 20 has an opening 29 through which the fan 21 blows air. This increases the static pressure at the cover 20, which change the direction of air at a desired direction. One of the advantages of the invention is that the tunnel cover 20 makes it possible to utilise considerably smaller mobile fans 21 to ventilate a tunnel 1 in the event of fire or emission of gases than when using earlier known techniques.

  • Patent number: 6807474
    Abstract: A method and a system in a vehicle to control the input torque to a drivetrain member (4) connected to an engine (2) is presented. The method comrises the steps of determining (101, 210) a value of the input torque (Ti) and determining (101, 210) the rotational speed (RPMi) of an input shaft (6) of the drivetrain member (4). A value of a first torque dependent function (Eoi) is calculated (105, 106, 206, 207), based on the rotational speed (RPMi), the value of the input torque (Ti) and a limit value of the input torque (TMax), the value of the input torque (Ti) exceeding the limit value of the input torque (TMax). If the value of the first torque dependent function (Eoi) exceeds a predetermined limit value of the first torque dependent function (EoMax), the input torque is reduced (109, 212).

  • Patent number: 6363795
    Abstract: A system including a pulse-generating device can comprise of at least one analog sensor and at least one unit for signal-processing is arranged to detect the analog signal and to generate signal changes having a higher frequency. When generating signal changes in connection with the determination of the amount of fuel dispensed from a fuel pump unit and a frequency generator for generating a periodic analog signal having a frequency is generated, which corresponds to a fuel volume flow in the pump unit. The amplitude of the analog signal is detected and then signal changes having a higher frequency are emitted, which is dependent on and higher than the frequency.
