Abstract: A multi-purpose detection circuit for object detection and vehicle position determination is described. For example, the circuit is configurable for detecting foreign metallic objects, living objects, and a vehicle or type of vehicle above an inductive wireless power transmitter. The circuit is also configurable for determining the vehicle's position relative to the inductive wireless power transmitter. An example apparatus includes a measurement circuit including a multiplexer, electrically connected to a plurality of inductive and capacitive sense circuits, for measuring one or more electrical characteristics in each of the inductive and capacitive sense circuits according to a predetermined time multiplexing scheme.

Abstract: A service device for a multi-component insulating gas for use during maintenance of electrical switchgear systems comprising a compressor with a downstream condenser, a storage container, the service device is connected to a system space, and the compressor compresses the insulating gas during removal from the system space, all components of the insulating gas remain in the compressor in a gaseous state, the condenser is controlled by a controller so a condensation of the insulating gas occurs first in the storage container, a storage heating device is provided for the storage container, during filling of the system space the storage heating device heats the insulating gas to a temperature above the critical temperature of the insulating gas, wherein, a line heating device is provided which at least partially heats the pipeline between the storage container and the system space and/or heats elements in the pipeline.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including systems and computer program products, for a service architecture design that provides enterprise services having human capital management functionality at the level of an enterprise application. The design includes a set of service operations, process components, and optionally deployment units. Suitable business objects are also described.

Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to employee time event and human capital management view of payroll process business objects.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing time recording. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include a Project Processing process component that supports the management of projects, a Time and Labor Management process component that supports the management of employees timekeeping and work planning, an Accounting process component that records relevant business transactions, a payroll processing process component that supports the execution and monitoring of payroll processes, and a Goods and Service Acknowledgement process component that receives a confirmation from an employee of goods received or services rendered.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal link (1) for electrical appliances, comprising an insulating part (10) with electrical terminals (11) and contact springs (12) for providing electrical contact between said terminals (11), a fusible material insert (15) that acts as the thermal trip element and a transmission pin (13), which is displaceably mounted in the insulting part (10), one end of which engaging with the fusible material insert (15) and the other end with the contact springs (12). Said link is characterised in that the fusible material insert (15) is situated in a casing (141) that is configured as one piece with the heat transfer plate (14).

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system including a database, two or more data access objects, and a proxy object. In some such embodiments, each data access object has exclusive access privileges to a subset of data within the database. Further each object includes one or more of a read method that provides access to data and a write method that causes data to be stored. In such embodiments, the proxy object accesses data via data access object methods and includes a valuate method, the execution of which causes data to be passed from a data access object to the proxy object.

Abstract: A method for determining cleaning action on medical instruments and other objects is disclose. The method uses a predetermined soiling substance, for example fresh blood mixed with a radioactive marker. The soiling substance is applied to the instrument as a predetermined contamination. By making various radiation and time measurements one can determine in absolute mass units either the remaining soiling after the completion of a cleaning process or the soiling prior to the cleaning process. By comparing the determined masses one may validate specific cleaning processes, machines or agents.
