  • Patent number: 9482709
    Abstract: A method for assigning individual phase conductors at a first point to those at at least one further point in a polyphase energy distribution network, in particular in a three-phase network. In the case of mains operation, wherein a common reference time is determined for these points, and the time difference and/or phase difference of the phase voltage or the line-to-line voltage between the reference time of a zero crossing of the phase voltage are determined for these points. By a comparison of the time and/or phase differences at two different points the phase conductor of one point is assigned to a phase conductor of the further point which has the same to time and/or phase difference with respect to the common reference time. An additional loading of the energy supply network or an interruption of the mains operation is avoided by the method.

  • Publication number: 20050170313
    Abstract: A cartridge-type system having a fluid containment in the cartridge which comprises a fluid containing body which is adapted to be attached to a delivery device, the body of the cartridge including preferably electrically energizable heating means, preferably energized through a delivery device, for heating the contents of the cartridge and thus enhancing their deliverability.

  • Publication number: 20030165793
    Abstract: The invention provides for a delivery system where a viscous material such as dental composite is heated by an induction field or by resistance to an electric current. The system comprises at the proximal end a capsule-like cartridge that is self heating. The capsule may be fabricated of any number of heat conducting polymers or doped polymers that are susceptible to induction fields or any material that will heat when an induction current is applied. In the second instance the capsules may have a resistance wire of the appropriate metal or any other material to allow heating of the capsule when a current is applied. In the third instance the capsule may have an induction coil embedded in it's wall combined with any type of metal or other material where this becomes the heating device when current of the appropriate nature is applied.
