  • Publication number: 20240139753
    Abstract: A material processing unit has a movable tool accommodated in a housing. The housing includes a housing part which can be moved between an open position and a closed position relative to a further housing part. A safety device prevents any opening of the housing when the tool is driven and/or prevents any driving in the open position. The safety device includes at least two actuators and a controller. A first actuator locks the housing part in the closed position. A second actuator causes, supports and/or permits a movement of the housing part. Sensors are assigned to the actuators. A controller is designed to control the drive and the actuators and to receive the actuation states detected by the sensors. A method for opening/closing a housing of a material processing unit is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240139751
    Abstract: The invention relates to a crusher unit (10), in particular an impact crusher, having an impact rotor (11), having at least one swivel-mounted impact rocker (20), wherein a crushing gap (15) is formed between the impact rotor (11) and the impact rocker (20), wherein the impact rocker (20) can be swiveled along an adjustment path by means of at least one gap-adjusting means (30) to set a gap width of the crushing gap (15), wherein the impact rocker (20) is mounted such that its weight force acts in the direction of a reduction of the crushing gap (15). For a high degree of operational safety, the crushing gap can be readjusted during operation in that at least one retaining device (50) is provided, which uses a retaining force to flexibly counteract a swiveling of the impact rocker (20) in the direction of the impact rotor (11). The invention also relates to a method for setting the crushing gap (15) of a crusher unit (10).

  • Publication number: 20240140719
    Abstract: The invention relates to a material processing device (1), in particular a mobile material processing device (1), having a conveyor device (10), in particular a conveyor belt, for conveying processed material and/or material to be processed in a direction of conveyance (FR) between a pick-up area (13) and a discharge area (16) of the conveyor device (10), wherein the conveyor device (10) has a first and a second conveying area (11, 12), wherein the first conveying area (11) is coupled to the material processing device (1) in the area of a first connection (15) such that it can swivel about a first joint having a first swivel axis (15.

  • Publication number: 20240129863
    Abstract: Methods inform an eNodeB on the transmit power status of a user equipment in a mobile communication system using component carrier (CC) aggregation. Also described is an implementation of these methods by hardware and in software. The invention proposes procedures that allow the eNodeB to recognize the power usage status of a UE in a communication system using carrier aggregation. The UE indicates to the eNodeB when the UE is close to using its total maximum UE transmit power or when it has exceeded the same. This is achieved by the UE including indicator(s) and/or new MAC CEs to one or more protocol data units transmitted on respective component carriers within a single sub-frame that is providing the eNodeB with power status information. The MAC CEs may report a per-UE power headroom. Alternatively, the MAC CEs may report per-CC power headrooms and/or power reductions applied to the respective uplink CCs.

  • Patent number: 11937331
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods for improving the DRX operation of a UE by introducing an additional DRX wake-up cycle, which runs in parallel to the short and/or long DRX cycle. The DRX wake-up cycle defines time intervals after which the UE starts monitoring the PDCCH for a wake-up duration of time; the UE does not perform any other operation during the wake-up duration apart from monitoring the PDCCH. The time intervals of the wake-up cycle between the wake-up durations are preferably shorter than the one of the DRX long cycle, and may have the same or a shorter length than the ones of the DRX short cycle. The wake-up duration may be as long as the on-duration of the DRX short/long cycle, or may be preferably much shorter, such as only one or a few subframes.

  • Patent number: 9291293
    Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic coupling bush (1), comprising a bush housing (4), in particular a sleeve-shaped hush housing (4), in which a hush tappet (12), an axially movable compression sleeve (13) that surrounds the hush tappet (12) in an axially parallel manner, in particular coaxially, and an axially movable retaining sleeve (16) that surrounds the compression sleeve (13) in an axially parallel manner, in particular coaxially, are arranged in an axially parallel manner, in particular coaxially, the outer surface of the retaining sleeve supporting or releasing securing elements (18) arranged in the bush housing (4) in the dial direction and the in particular annular end face (16a) of the retaining sleeve lying at least substantially in one plane with the end faces (12a) of the bush tappet (12) and of the bush housing (4) in the decoupled state, wherein the compression sleeve is ex posed from the inside to a hydraulic fluid to be conveyed through the bush at least substantially without applying axia
