  • Patent number: 7419599
    Abstract: A column packing system comprises a control unit provided with software for calculating the breakpoint where a movable adapter comes into contact with a settled bed of bed media. The calculated breakpoint is used by the control unit to determine how much further the movable adapter has to move into the column in order to achieve a desired amount of bed compression.

  • Patent number: 7270079
    Abstract: The invention relates to a milk conveyer device (100) for an animal. The milk conveyer device is to be implemented in a milking arrangement which comprises a milk storage reservoir (101) coupled to a milking attachment for attaching to an animal to be milked through a main milk conduit (103, 105). A sample element (109, 111) extracts milk, which is collected in a sample reservoir (115, 117). The sample reservoir (115,117) is connected to an analysis element (129) through an analysis conduit (123, 125). During the flow of the milk from the sample reservoir to the analysis element (129), the milk itself provides a cleaning effect. The flow is initially at a high flow rate and later at a reduced flow rate. A plurality of analysis conduits (123, 125) are connected to the analysis element (129), which comprises a selector unit (127), which couples milk from one of the analysis conduits (123, 125) to the analysis element (129).

  • Patent number: 7128818
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring and measuring gas concentrations in combustor applications is provided, wherein the apparatus is a gas sensor having a plurality of electrodes cooperating with a single electrolyte cell for detecting the presence and concentration of gaseous components of a flue gas. A voltage is generated based on the flow of ions caused by differing gas concentrations as detected by electrodes across the electrolyte. The change in voltage is correlated and is used to determine the concentration of detected gases, such as combustible gases, nitric oxides, carbon monoxide, etc., contained in the flue gas. The combustor operation may then be optimized to enhance efficiency and minimize undesired gas concentrations in the flue gas in a desired fashion. A calibration gas may be introduced to calibrate the apparatus and a reference gas may be provided to an electrode as a basis for correlating the concentrations of the gases.

  • Publication number: 20060045661
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a present value of the capacity level of a hydraulic crane (1) provided with a lifting cylinder (8), the present value of the capacity level being determined by means of a processing unit (33). The initiation of each new lifting cycle of the crane is detected and a minimum value of each lifting cycle is registered, which represents the lowest hydraulic pressure on the piston side (8a) of the lifting cylinder during the lifting cycle or the lowest cylinder force of the lifting cylinder during the lifting cycle. For at least some of the lifting cycles, the processing unit (33) determines the present value of the capacity level of the crane taking into account a control value (VC) corresponding to: the minimum value registered for the previous lifting cycle, or the lowest one of the minimum value registered for the previous lifting cycle and the minimum value registered for the present lifting cycle.

  • Publication number: 20050246184
    Abstract: Stored in a computer are scores related to answers given by human representatives of organizational units in response to defined questions. For the organizational units, total scores and weighted total scores are calculated. The weighted total scores are calculated by adding up weighted maximum scores assigned to the questions, the weighted maximum scores depending on the respective organizational unit and the respective question. Competence levels of the organizational units are calculated by scaling the total scores of the respective organizational unit to a scale of competence reaching from zero to a maximum competence. The maximum competence corresponds to the weighted total score calculated for the respective organizational unit. The computer generates a graphical representation of the competence levels for multiple organizational units of a particular organization.
