Abstract: The invention relates to a method for insulation fault location as well as to an insulation fault location system for an ungrounded power supply system. The main idea of the present invention rests upon the idea that while preserving a predetermined maximally admissible test current amplitude, a test current pulse duration of a test current is adaptively set such that all interfering values are eliminated in a captured differential current, in particular the leakage currents arising in consequence of large supply leakage capacitances. Should a test of the value of the final value of the differential current reveal that a test current threshold value has been exceeded, this exceedance can be seen as an indicator that the respective conductor section is therefore in the fault circuit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for monitoring a protective conductor connection of an electrical supply line, the supply line running between a feeding point and a load-side connection. The invention is based on the generation and inductive feeding of a test current into the protective conductor connection and on the registration of a current flowing in the protective conductor connection.

Abstract: A light-emitting cavity device comprising: a pair of mirrors spaced apart to define a resonant cavity; a luminescent layer located in the cavity; and a control layer located in the cavity and controllable to adjust the resonance wavelength of the cavity and thereby spectrally redistribute the energy emitted by the luminescent layer.

Abstract: For making use of interactive services, it is essential that the individual needs of the users be satisfied while taking the security aspect into consideration. The method resolves this in that a connection setup to the user is only handled when an authorization of the appertaining user can be verified based on the comparison of two numerical values.

Abstract: A coding head for applying magnetic codes onto magnetizable layers of scales, graduations, angle encoders, transport belts and the like has a magnetic pole (10) about which a coil (12) is wound, the saturation induction of the magnetic pole being selected in dependence upon the coercive field strength of the magnetizable layer (18). In this case, the saturation induction (in Tesla) has a specified relationship to the coercive field strength (in kOe).

Abstract: A magnetic field can be detected by moving magnetized areas past a magnetoresistor, which responds to the changing magnetic field. The sensitivity to magnetic fields is limited by the width of the magnetoresistors used. To optimize the sensitivity, two spaced-apart ferromagnetic pole pieces (6, 7) are so disposed between the magnetoresistor and the magnetized areas that their ends (8, 9) at the magnetoresistor (4) form a first gap (10) having a width (11) on the order of the width (12) of the magnetoresistor (4), and that their ends (13, 14) at the magnetized areas form a second, considerably narrower gap (16).

Abstract: A device including at least one magnetoresistor for sensing the position of a ferromagnetic part which moves past the magnetoresistor. The magnetoresistor is influenced by a permanent magnet which is mounted near the magnetoresistor in a housing which contains the magnetoresistor. The device is useful as a position, direction, or speed sensor.

Abstract: A driving method and system for controlling the operating characteristics of a tubular-bag machine, in which a tubular bag is closed off at the bottom end so as to be fillable with packing material through a fill pipe. An intermittently moved thin foil tube is for this purpose guided vertically between transversely arranged, heated sealing jaws, the opening and closing of which being camcontrolled. The foil movement is adjusted to the opening and closing movement. The drive for effecting the foil movement and the drive for effecting the sealing, separating and welding device are driven by separate motors controlled independently from one another, and are adjusted to one another such that each angular-speed stage can be adjusted independently from the preceding or following stage to the demands of the work cycle at any time during the work cycle. The magnitude of the angular speed can be adjusted as well.

Abstract: In a magnetic field sensor comprising at least one magnetic-field-dependent resistor disposed in the vicinity of an outer side of a housing that is open on at least one side and further comprising a permanent magnet that is adjacent to said magnetic-field-dependent resistor, the magnetic-field-dependent resistor(s) (6), arranged on a support (4), are in a contacting relationship with the inside of a detector side wall (2) of the housing (1), and the thickness (x) of said detector side wall (2) is, at least in the area of the active surface of the magnetic-field-dependent resistors (6), smaller than that of the other housing walls (17, 18, 19) and/or the housing base (20). A rugged, high-resolution magnetic field sensor is thus obtained.

Abstract: A magnetic field detector has a sensor arrangement which is disposed in a housing and includes a plurality of stripe-magnetic-field-dependent resistors arranged on the underside of a dielectric support. A permanent magnet is oriented perpendicularly to the upper side of the support and to the magnetic-field-dependent resistors. In one embodiment, the sensor arrangement is located approximately in the center of the housing and a plurality of electrical contact means are attached on both sides of the permanent magnet and adjacent thereto within the housing. In another embodiment, the sensor arrangement is located laterally from the center of the housing and the electrical contact means are attached within the housing and adjacent to only one side of the magnet.

Abstract: A sensor for use in testing the effect on materials of irradiation and weathering uses solar cells (10) to provide power and uses a transmitter (3) to continuously read out its measurements without interrupting the testing process. The sensor features a number of receptor cells (2) for various spectral ranges and a temperature sensor (17), whose measurements are multiplexed and transmitted under the control of a control logic 18. The receptor cells (2), the photo cells (10) and the electronics (16) are all contained in a preferably cylindrical quartz glass tube (4). The self-contained nature of the sensor and the continuous, immediate read-out of measurements eliminate external wiring requirements and speed up the testing process.
