  • Patent number: 10204751
    Abstract: A method automatically parameterizes bay controllers and/or protective devices of a switching arrangement. The method includes automatically detecting the topology of the switching arrangement on the basis of topology information, and automatically determining interlocking and/or enabling conditions for at least one device on the basis of the topology. Communication connections for the at least one device are automatically specified while taking into account the interlocking and/or enabling conditions determined for this device. The at least one device is parameterized with the interlocking and/or enabling conditions and the communication connections and the topology determined for this device, so that interlocking or enabling of a switching action in the at least one device is controllable during the operation of the switching arrangement.

  • Publication number: 20140001860
    Abstract: A fast bus transfer method and a device reduce the impact on a load connected to a bus caused by a power cut. The method includes calculating the amplitude of the voltage vector difference between the bus and the backup power supply and the phase angle difference between the bus and the backup power supply; and transferring the load on the bus to the backup power supply only when the amplitude is less than its limit value and the phase angle difference is less than 90°. The device contains a detection module, a calculation module, a comparison module, and a transfer module. By calculating the real-time residual voltage, it is unnecessary for a user to know all the details of the residual voltage characteristic, and can achieve fast transfer simply by setting the limit of the voltage difference when a circuit breaker of the backup power supply is closed.

  • Patent number: 6820017
    Abstract: A method for determining the amplitude and phase angle of a measuring signal corresponding to a current or a voltage on an electrical power supply network by using sampled values of the measuring signal, a model of the measuring signal containing at least a sinusoidal component being used to calculate the amplitude and phase of the measuring signal with the sampled values by applying a recursive least-squares estimation method. In order to be able to determine the frequency of the measuring signal together with the amplitude and the phase angle, use is made of a model of the measuring signal in accordance with the relationship y=A·sin(2&pgr;ft+&phgr;), and by using this model and the sampled values (ym), the determination of the frequency of the measuring signal (um) as well is carried out via a recursive nonlinear least-squares estimation method. By expanding the signal model, measuring signals with a DC component and with frequencies that change over time also can be investigated.

  • Patent number: 4813880
    Abstract: A disconnecting distribution frame for a small telephone extension system with a plurality of electrical terminals arranged in pairs, each pair of terminals being equipped with corresponding plug contacts and being electrically interconnectable by means of a coupling plug, is formed from one half of a conventional disconnecting distribution frame which is attached to the carrier of a subassembly rack having a guide strip for a printed circuit board. The other half of the disconnecting distribution frame is formed by plug contacts. These plug contacts are attached to the printed circuit board, which is inserted into the guide and correspond in height to the plug contacts on the carrier and are aligned with these. A coupler plug for making the electrical connection is attached to every two plug pins located opposite one another.

  • Patent number: 4790007
    Abstract: A telephone instrument is designed in the shape of an angle, whereby the upper side has a steeper inclination towards the user. The rear wall is at approximately a right angle to the upper side. The bottom side runs at a specific distance, parallel to the upper side and to the rear wall. Since the distance between the upper side and the bottom side is not very great, i.e. since a maximum of only two printed circuit boards can be accommodated one on top of the other in this space, the bottom side below the upper side has a trough which serves both to accommodate an additional printed circuit board and to provide cable entries. This trough does not extend over the total width of the telephone instrument but is narrower. In order to expand the keyboard, one part of the upper side can be moved in the longitudinal direction, away from the user, so that an additional keyboard or indicator device below it is made available.

  • Patent number: 4782522
    Abstract: A terminal of a telephone switchboard installation with one dialing and one service and/or input keyboard and one or more indicator device(s) and a cradle for the hand set. The terminal includes, on the upper side of the terminal a sliding part, which is formed by the upper side which accommodates the keyboards and sometimes includes an indicator device. In one position, the sliding part operationalizes an additional keyboard or indicator device which is located beneath it. This additional keyboard may be designed as a targeted dialing key set, an alpha-numerical input keyboard, etc., and in addition, the keyboard may be replaced with a bank of lamps indicating lines in use.

  • Patent number: 4226445
    Abstract: A hose and pipe coupling is provided having a coupling head and a nozzle which can be inserted into the coupling head, and which is lockable therewith by a locking element. The locking element includes a spring-elastic ring having a slit and onto which are formed two oppositely-directed, arcuate spring arms which surround and embrace the coupling head. The coupling head has a slot-like circumferential opening and an internal annular groove for the partial reception of the spring-elastic ring and the nozzle at its coupling side is also provided with an annular groove for at least at partially receiving the spring-elastic ring in the inserted position of the nozzle. The coupling further includes a protective cap displaceably arranged on the coupling head and over the elastic ring after the nozzle and the coupling head are coupled together.
