  • Patent number: 8283576
    Abstract: A control box arrangement including at least one control box, the inside of which is sub-divided, or can be sub-divided, into a plurality of compartments which are arranged one above the other and can be closed in a sealing manner by associated doors with a peripheral sealing arrangement acting on the inside of the doors. The doors are connected, by one of the vertical sides thereof, to a frame of the control box in question by hinges in an articulated manner, and can be closed by a closing mechanism on the opposite vertical side. A first hinge section is fixed to a vertical section of the frame by a fixing section, and the door is mounted on an articulated section of the first hinge section in an articulated manner by a second hinge section applied thereto.

  • Patent number: 8240785
    Abstract: A control box arrangement including at least one control box which is sub-divided, or can be sub-divided, by vertical wall sections with a horizontal sub-division, into a plurality of cuboid compartments surrounded on all sides. A variable structural design of compartments, particularly functional compartments, for example for low voltage systems, is obtained by providing wall sections including lateral wall sections adapted to the same or different compartment heights, adapted rear wall sections embodied as mounting plates, and horizontal partition bottoms, in order to produce a plurality of horizontal compartments, in the form of pigeonholes, arranged one above the other.

  • Patent number: 8210362
    Abstract: A control box arrangement including at least one control box which has a frame constructed from vertical and horizontal frame pieces and which is fitted with, or can be fitted with, mounting parts including mounting rails, for the variable design of the inside of the control box for the division thereof. The frame pieces have rows of mounting holes in a defined pattern. The division of the inside of the control box can be varied by single-component connection pieces for connecting the mounting rails to the frame pieces. The connection pieces include a coupling section which protrudes at a right angle from the connection plane of the associated frame piece when applied. The coupling section has a quadratic or rectangular cross-section and has at least one transversally extending threaded borehole. The four planes of the coupling section are parallel to the vertical plane and the horizontal plane of the control box.

  • Patent number: 6684213
    Abstract: The present mechanism relates generally, to systems and methods for computerized order tracking and, more particularly, to systems and methods for computerized tracking of order information contained in Legacy databases. An interactive web-based application tracks orders through various Legacy databases that are used in telecommunications order processing and monitoring. The summary and prioritization of identified service order status provides an important tool to track, escalate, and identify the need for management action to better ensure that service commitments are met. The present mechanism replaces the manual, paper-based order tracking system, thereby allowing more time to be spent on managing the process.

  • Publication number: 20040015073
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for filtering an external radiation beam to create a radiation exit profile that compensates for target motion. One aspect of the invention involves a method for correcting an intended radiation dose distribution for a target, including determining a target position variance for the target, producing a three-dimensional distribution model of the target position variance, and performing an inverse blurring operation on the intended dose distribution based on the three-dimensional distribution model to produce a corrected radiation dose distribution.
