  • Publication number: 20160075532
    Abstract: A method for transforming a profile form, in particular a longitudinal profile form of a material web in a regularly corrugated and/or periodic profile structure, wherein the material web comprises as material paper and/or plastic and/or plastic sheeting and/or heat-insulating material except for materials with metal/metallic and/or heat-conductive components, using one or more moving transforming means with which the material web is brought into positive engagement, wherein after the engagement of the transforming means the material web profiled as a consequence is brought in positive engagement with one or several adjustment means profiled in a complementary manner that are moved in such a manner relative to the transforming means that the profile structure formed by the transforming means is subjected for adjusting, changing or maintaining its accuracy to size to a possible subsequent fine adjustment and/or correction.

  • Publication number: 20160035507
    Abstract: A method is provided which protects persons in the vicinity of a high frequency (HF) field-emitting device, in particular a European train control system (ETCS) antenna of a rail vehicle. In order to be able to reliably protect persons from radiation that is detrimental to one's health, the device is held in or switched to an OFF state by an uplink for a limited period of time, the ON/OFF state being optically and/or acoustically signaled.

  • Publication number: 20150367873
    Abstract: A method warns persons who are in the vicinity of an high-frequency (HF) field-emitting device, such as an European train control system (ETCS) antenna of a rail vehicle. In order to be able to reliably warn persons of the presence of radiation that is detrimental to health, the HF field is extracted by an antenna arrangement, the extracted signal actuating, by a power-measuring device, a signaling device for the optical and/or acoustic signaling of an ON/OFF state of the device, in particular the ETCS antenna.

  • Publication number: 20150367591
    Abstract: A drive method for moving a first and a second forming means for processing a web-like material (material web) arranged between the same, in particular for deforming for example a paperboard web in a corrugated manner, wherein the forming means, and possibly the material web therebetween, are brought into force-fitting and/or form-fitting engagement, and the forming means are each assigned a dedicated drive, and the drives are activated such that the forming means apply a predetermined pressing force against one another and possibly to the material web.

  • Publication number: 20140224756
    Abstract: A device for coupling the roof area of two articulated vehicle parts, for limiting the roll and/or pitch movements of the vehicle parts relative to each other. The device includes at least two consoles. At least one console is disposed on the roof area of a first vehicle part. The at least two consoles are connected to each other by a coupling arm. At least one of the consoles includes a leaf spring.

  • Publication number: 20110184621
    Abstract: A method and a device increase the stopping accuracy of a moving object, in particular a rail vehicle, at a predetermined stopping point. An RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) signal generated at the stopping point is received by the object and is used as a guidance variable for approaching the stopping point.

  • Patent number: 4423628
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for monitoring the length of a liquid column such as the filling level of a beverage bottle. A predetermined high frequency signal is applied to a parallel circuit wherein, in one branch, a liquid column is connected by means of electrodes coupled to the ends of the column such that the column, i.e., a filled bottle, will produce more or less resonance in the first branch. The increase or decrease of resistance at resonance in the first branch will be reflected in a corresponding change in the power or current detected in the second branch. In instances where preset limit values are exceeded, an error is indicated and the improperly filled bottle is removed. When monitoring the filling level of beverage bottles, the latter are successively guided past the electrodes, with the upper electrode being coupled to the necks of the bottles through an air gap.
