  • Patent number: 7986410
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for detecting a tear in a fibrous web in a drying section of a machine for producing the fibrous web, whereby the fibrous web is passed through the drying section by way of at least one dryer fabric, whereby the tear is detected by at least one optical web tear detection device, which includes at least one luminous source and one detector, and whereby a cut-off apparatus for the fibrous web is directly or indirectly activated by the web tear detection device. The optical web tear detection device is operated over an extended wave length range in order to detect a tear in the fibrous web reliably. In addition, the invention relates to an apparatus for performing the inventive method.

  • Publication number: 20090220146
    Abstract: A method for characterizing the formation of paper in which patterns and/or structures existing in the paper are automatically characterized and classified. The automatic characterization and classification includes creating a collection of paper specimens, creating a digital image of each individual specimen, digital pre-processing of the digital image where necessary, calculating different multi-dimensional features in light of the digital images or sub-ranges of the images, analyzing structure-specific groups forming in the feature space during calculation of the different multi-dimensional features and analyzing the structure-specific groups in the feature space, projecting the results of the analysis of the structure-specific groups into a—compared to the feature space—low-dimensional space for visualizing the analysis results, and drawing on the analysis results for the classification of newly added specimens.

  • Publication number: 20090199987
    Abstract: This invention relates to a dewatering apparatus, in particular a paper machine or a paperboard machine, for the adjustable, and controllable dewatering of a fibrous material, which is conveyed as a fibrous web that can be divided into at least two zones arranged side by side in a cross direction (CD). The dewatering apparatus is characterized in that the dewatering of the fibrous material is adaptable to a dewatering curve defined in a machine direction on the basis of measurements of the water weight of the fibrous material taken by at least two water weight sensors, in particular a one-dimensional or multi-dimensional sensor arrangement of water weight sensors, which are assigned to a zone and arranged preferably in pairs in mutually offset position in the CD direction.

  • Patent number: 7465806
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formulae I and Ia, wherein R0; R1; R3; R4; R22, Q; V, G and M have the meanings indicated in the claims. The compounds of the formulae I and Ia are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. They exhibit a strong antithrombotic effect and are suitable for the therapy and prophylaxis of cardiovascular disorders like thromboembolic diseases or restenoses. They are reversible inhibitors of the blood clotting enzymes factor Xa (FXa) and/or factor VIIa (FVIIa), and can in general be applied in conditions in which an undesired activity of factor Xa and/or factor VIIa is present or for the cure or prevention of which an inhibition of factor Xa and/or factor VIIa is intended. The invention furthermore relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formulae I and Ia, their use, in particular as active ingredients in pharmaceuticals, and pharmaceutical preparations comprising them.
