  • Publication number: 20250074623
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a transport load carrier (1) for a baggage handling system, such as a luggage handling system in an airport, said transport load carrier (1) comprising a platform (2) for receiving and accommodating a load. such as one or more items of luggage, a plurality of wheels (6) wherein at least one wheel is selfdriven by drive means, and wherein the orientation of the wheels is adjustable by adjustment means for rotating the load carrier or turning its transport direction with or without rotating the load carrier, and a control unit for controlling the drive means at the at least one wheel and controlling the adjustment means of the wheels for the execution of a load transport task. The invention further concerns a transport system and a method, in particular a baggage handling system, such as a luggage handling system in an airport, comprising a plurality of such transport load carriers.

  • Publication number: 20250066221
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides method of monitoring a plurality of processes in an urban water cycle. The method comprises the steps of: defining an event having impact on a process activity of at least one process, defining a time-period, defining a first data set representing at least one expected process activity under impact of the event, the first data set comprising interrelated values of expected process activity and point in time in the time-period, determining a second data set representing actual process activity in the time-period, the actual process activity being the process activity under impact of the event, comparing the second data set representing actual process activity with the first data set representing expected process activity. Based thereon, a notification relating to the process activity for the at least one process is generated, if a deviation between the first data set and the second data set exceeds a predetermined threshold value in the time-period.

  • Patent number: 10113290
    Abstract: The invention relates to a seabed foundation (1) for an offshore facility, comprising a primary pressure chamber (7) connected to a primary pump (8) and one or more secondary pressure chambers (9) connected to one or more secondary pumps (10). According to an embodiment of the invention, said primary pump is a suction pump and said secondary pump is a pressure pump. The invention further relates to a method (12) of installing said foundation on the seabed (19), which comprises the steps of activating (14) said primary pump to create negative pressure in the primary pressure chamber (7), so that the foundation sinks into the seabed, and activating (15) said one or more secondary pumps (10) to create positive pressures in the secondary pressure chambers (9), so as to control the alignment of the foundation with respect to a substantially horizontal axis (16) during the sinking into the seabed.

  • Publication number: 20130273909
    Abstract: A local communication network (16) comprising a first client communication unit (10) and at least one second communication unit (12), and a method of roaming. The client communication units comprise a first interface unit (14) and a second interface unit (18) for connecting to said local communication network (16) and a remote network (20), respectively, and a bridging unit (22). The client communication units are operative in a first mode, in which said first client communication unit (10) bridges traffic between said local communication network (16) and said remote communication network (20) through a first communication path, and in a second mode, in which said second communication unit (12) scans for an alternative second communication path. A roaming control unit (24) determines whether the alternative second communication path is preferred over said first communication path. If this is the case mode of operation is switched and bridging is taken over by said second client communication unit (12).

  • Publication number: 20110200399
    Abstract: Method of installing a bucket foundation structure comprising one, two, three or more skirts, into soils in a controlled manner. The method comprises two stages: a first stage being a design phase and the second stage being an installation phase. In the first stage, design parameters are determined relating to the loads on the finished foundation structure; soil profile on the location of installation; allowable installation tolerances, which parameters are used to estimate the minimum diameter and length of the skirts of the bucket. The bucket size is used to simulate load situations and penetration into foundation soil, in order to predict necessary penetration force, required suction inside the bucket and critical suction pressures, which penetration force, required suction, and critical suction pressures are used as input for a control system in the second stage, in which second stage the parameters determined in the first stage are used in order to control the installation of the bucket.

  • Publication number: 20050248240
    Abstract: An entertainment center includes a base that expands horizontally to accommodate different width home theater displays; and, a light bridge that rests on top of one or more cabinets placed on either side of the base. The side cabinets provide a vertical column of open space for accommodating wiring among the entertainment system components and ventilation for heat generated by those components. The base includes casters to facilitate moving the base in and out from between the side cabinets. Sliding portions of the base extend horizontally yet continue to transfer all load weight onto the casters. The front woodwork of the base presents a pleasing seamless appearance as a consequence of overlapping trim pieces.
