Abstract: In a rolling stand (1), especially a plate rolling stand, with a right housing column (2), a left housing column (3), an upper column crosshead (4) that connects them, at least one pair of work rolls and one pair of backup rolls and associated chocks, a balancing device with brackets (5, 6) and a piston rod (7) that extends upward through the column crosshead (4) beyond the upper surface (8) of the column crosshead (4), the piston rod (7) has a yoke (10) at its outer end (9), which yoke (10) is oriented in the rolling direction and engages the brackets (5, 6) of the balancing device, and a rotating sleeve (11), which encloses the piston rod (7), is arranged between the upper edge (12) of the balancing cylinder (22) and the lower edge (13) of the yoke (10), is supported on the column crosshead (4), and has at least one open slot (14) into which the yoke (10) can drop.

Abstract: An overload safety coupling, especially for the main drivetrains on rolling stands, which bridges a toothed spindle section and a spindle section with a permanent seat. The coupling includes a rotating-and-sliding sleeve, which has internal toothing at one end to hold the spindle section in a way that allows axial displacement. At the other end, the sleeve holds an inner sleeve, which is permanently seated on the spindle section. A pressure sleeve and a pressure gap pretensioned with pressure fluid produce a nonrotatable connection between the rear sleeve-like extension and the inner sleeve, which frictional connection gives way in the event of an overload.

Abstract: For grouping temporal segments of an audio piece, which is structured into main parts repeatedly occurring in the audio piece, into various segment classes, at first a similarity representation for the segments is provided, wherein the similarity representation for each segment comprises an associated plurality of similarity values, wherein the similarity values indicate how similar the segment is to every other segment of the audio piece. Hereupon, using the similarity values associated with the segment, a similarity threshold value for a segment is calculated in order to then associate a segment with a segment class when the similarity value of the segment meets a predetermined relation with reference to the similarity threshold value. With this, clustering is achieved, which also works efficiently and correctly where there are segments with strongly different or almost equal combined similarity values.

Abstract: For the segment class designation the temporal position of segments in two candidate segment classes is used for the stanza/refrain selection by means of a segment class designation means, wherein the highest-order segment class is designated as refrain segment class only when it has a segment following temporally later in the audio piece than the latest segment of the other candidate segment class. With this, segment class labeling with a low error rate is achieved, which can at the same time be implemented with easy effort and is further predestined for automated flow.

Abstract: For changing a segmentation of an audio piece after a segment class assignment, at first a short segment is selected, which has a length shorter than a predetermined minimum length. This short segment is preferably merged with the corresponding successor segment or predecessor segment using information on a segment class membership of the short segment itself, but also the successor segment or the predecessor segment, in order to obtain a changed segmentation of the audio signal. With this, a not over-segmented segment representation of the audio signal is obtained, which further includes all audio information, i.e. is not a representation of the audio piece with holes.

Abstract: The invention relates to an overload security coupling, in particular for main drivetrains on rolling stands, forming a bridge between a toothed spindle section (1) and a spindle section (6), with an interference fit. According to the invention, the security coupling for axial overload may be combined with a rotational fixing against torsional overload, whereby the same is embodied with a rotating sliding sleeve (3), housing the spindle section (1) with internal toothing in an axially-displaceable manner at one end and enclosing the spindle section (6) with an inner sleeve (4) in the interference fit at the other end and the rear sleeve-like projection (13) thereof generates a fixed functional connection which gives way in case of overload with a pressure sleeve (5) and a pressure gap (14), tensioned by pressure medium.

Abstract: A heat exchange method and apparatus having a cooled fluid flowing in contact with a first surface of a heat exchange wall and a cooling fluid flowing in contact with a second surface of the wall. At least one temperature sensor is located to directly monitor the temperature of the first surface. Flow of the cooling fluid is throttled when the temperature of the first surface drops at least 50 degrees below the freezing temperature of the cooled fluid.
