Abstract: A system and method are provided for modeling and interpreting a modeled digital asset and its evolution with respect to the rights of a plurality of parties, the method comprising: executing an await function instance no more than once using one of at least one choice defined therein for disposition of the digital asset with respect to the rights of at least one of the plurality of parties, said await function instance incorporated upon the consent of the affected parties to fulfil a configured function instance associated with the at least one choice; executing an agree function instance that requires the consent of at least one of the plurality of parties to execute; and storing the results of the executed function instances in an append-only ledger.

Abstract: The invention relates to a valve unit for the exclusive hydraulic actuation of the locking means of a mechanical quick-changer for attachments of a construction machine, wherein the valve unit comprises a feed pressure connector for applying the feed pressure, a first valve unit outlet for connecting an unlocking pressure line, a second valve unit outlet for connecting a locking pressure line, at least one discharge to the tank, and at least two switchable directional valves, with the feed pressure connector being connected or connectable to the second valve unit outlet via a serial connection of the at least two switchable directional valves.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydraulic drive which comprises a hydraulic motor having a first hydraulic connector and a second hydraulic connector, wherein the pressure applied at the first hydraulic connector of the hydraulic motor and the pressure applied at the second hydraulic connector of the hydraulic motor are each separately adjustable.

Abstract: A computer peripheral that may operate as a scanner. The scanner captures image frames as it is moved across an object. The image frames are formed into a composite image based on computations in two processes. In a first process, fast track processing determines a coarse position of each of the image frames based on a relative position between each successive image frame and a respective preceding image determine by matching overlapping portions of the image frames. In a second process, fine position adjustments are computed to reduce inconsistencies from determining positions of image frames based on relative positions to multiple prior image frames. The peripheral may also act as a mouse and may be configured with one or more navigation sensors that can be used to reduce processing time required to match a successive image frame to a preceding image frame.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a work machine having a drive unit which drives one or more hydraulic pumps of a hydraulic system of the work machine via an output shaft, wherein a clutch is provided which can be controlled or is designed so that it separates the output shaft from the hydraulic pump or pumps in towing load operation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a working machine, in particular a traveling material-handling machine, in particular a hydraulic excavator, comprising a basic machine, a cabin and a cabin arm pivotally mounted on the basic machine, by means of which the position of the cabin with respect to the basic machine can be varied, wherein the cabin arm can be swivelled with respect to the basic machine about a horizontal axis by means of at least one hydraulic actuator, and wherein the cabin is pivotally mounted on the cabin arm via a hydraulic inclination adjustment device. In accordance with the invention, the cabin includes an emergency lowering system, in which an inclination emergency valve is provided for the inclination adjustment device of the cabin, which in a case of emergency lowering provides for alignment of the cabin into a normal position.

Abstract: Air quality in a interior space is monitored by a sensor and, to determine air renewal demand, the sensor signal is compared with a normal or reference value. For demand controlled ventilation, a switching signal is triggered for changing the amount of outside air supplied when air renewal demand changes. A reference ventilation is performed daily, at a time of day when outside air quality is satisfactory, typically in the early morning hours. Measured quality of the air from the reference ventilation is used in setting or resetting the reference value, e.g. adaptively.
