Patent number: 8079443Abstract: A trim panel for an aircraft interior includes a first sound attenuating layer, a structural layer and a second sound attenuating layer. The structural layer is coupled to the exterior sound attenuating layer, and has an exterior side and an opposite interior side. The structural layer defines a plurality of passages that open to both the exterior side and the interior side so as to minimize radiation of noise due to a hydrodynamic shortcut created by each of the passages across the structural layer. The second sound attenuating layer is coupled to the structural layer and has a high sound absorption characteristic. The second sound attenuating layer is configured to be disposed adjacent to the aircraft interior.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2008Date of Patent: December 20, 2011Assignee: Pelzer Acoustic Products GmbHInventor: Hans-Peter Keller

Patent number: 5652415Abstract: A molded article for the absorption of airborne sound, to be used principally in the engine compartment of motor vehicles and particularly as a sound absorber inside partial and complete motor encapsulations, is formed by a porous absorber (1) of which the core (6), being sealed on both sides (7,8) over its complete surface by a respective PU film of a thickness less than 90 .mu.m, is made from an open-pored PU (polyurethane) foam of a thickness of at least 3 mm and about 15 mm at the most. The core comprises cavities (2-4) originating on the bottom face and formed by the injection molding process, said cavities being open only towards the bottom face (5) and having different cavity volumes and different heights (11) measured from the bottom face (5).Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1995Date of Patent: July 29, 1997Assignee: Helmut PelzerInventors: Helmut Pelzer, Tarik Akyol, Hans Peter Keller, Rolf Guenzel

Patent number: 4873621Abstract: The method of regulation employs a simulation process for at least one state variable of an apparatus to be controlled and regulates the state variable. In the process, a curve of an operating characteristic having its base at an idle state value is traversed up to an operating state value. When re-regulating, the regulation process begins at the current value of the state variable. The value of the regulation variable corresponds to the idle state. This has the advantage of a defined initial point for re-regulation. A regulating device for performing the method of regulation comprises a series circuit containing an input circuit, a regulation circuit with a simulation device for regulating an apparatus as well as a control circuit for possible machines coupled to the apparatus. The simulation device is adjustable according to operating characteristics or apparatus parameters. Another regulating device fulfills the same function while employing a computer and correspondingly modified circuits.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 1987Date of Patent: October 10, 1989Assignee: Gebrueder Loepfe AGInventors: Beat De Coi, Hans-Peter Keller

Patent number: 4565224Abstract: The weft thread monitoring apparatus contains a detecting circuit incorporating the functions of a thread recognition circuit and a control circuit for controlling the intensity of a thread sensing or scanning beam which is affected by extraneous effects like outside light, the presence of fluff and other influences. A monitoring and controlling circuit defines monitoring and control intervals to differentiate between thread signals which are respectively correctly and incorrectly related to the operating cycle of the weaving machine and to possibly cut off the weaving machine. A sensing head can be simply mounted and dismantled at any desired location at the reed of the weaving machine so that different widths of the woven material or fabric can be manufactured using the same reed and the weft thread can be monitored. By periodic indication of the thread signal the correct run or operation of the weaving machine also can be monitored.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 1983Date of Patent: January 21, 1986Assignee: Loepfe Brothers LimitedInventor: Hans-Peter Keller

Patent number: 4415008Abstract: An electronic device for monitoring the insertion or travel of the filling or weft thread on an air jet weaving machine or loom which comprises at least one air jet arranged at the picking side of the machine, and a lathe or sley beam with thereon fixed lamellae forming a reed. The device comprises a tactile weft thread travel sensor arranged at the weaving machine upstream of said air jet, a start pulse generator controlled by the weaving machine, an optoelectrical sensor located near the end of the reed adjacent the weft receiving means, and electronic circuitry controlled by said start pulse generator and optoelectrical sensor for producing an activating signal defining the time interval during which the weft thread travel is monitored.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 1981Date of Patent: November 15, 1983Assignee: Loepfe Brothers LimitedInventors: Hans-Peter Keller, Max Bossard
