Abstract: Disclosed is a control device, particularly a remote control for industrial appliances, comprising a housing for accommodating the control electronics and at least one control element. The housing (10) is formed by a wall part (11) and holding elements (13, 14) which close the two faces of the wall part (11) and can be interconnected by means of bars (17, 18, 19). Preferably the holding elements are molded plastic parts while the wall part (11) and/or the bars (17, 18, 19) are profiled metal parts. The housing can thus be assembled from simple components, i.e. a wall part and holding elements that close the faces, as basic modules which can be expanded in many different ways, allowing an individually configured control device to be designed like a module or kit. Various requirement levels regarding mechanical stability, durability, service life, production costs, etc. can be met by adequately selecting the materials.

Abstract: A device for processing and for transporting flat mail items such as documents and/or letters inserted into envelopes, samples, cards, etc., includes a transport route, formed by transport rolls (5, 6, 7) of a transport mechanism (3), one end of this route being configured to load a separation unit (9) with mail items (2) for individual processing. The device includes a separation unit (9), which is designed with a drive roll (6), supported rotatably on a horizontal axis of rotation and extending transversely to the transport direction. The drive roll acts frictionally on the bottom surface of the mail item (2) and cooperates with a queuing mechanism (11), which is installed above (6) and offset from the drive roll in the downstream direction to hold back excess mail items.

Abstract: A remote controlled industrial equipment, e.g., a construction unit with at least one transmitter, which includes at least a second receiver that is operable parallel to a first receiver. The receivers are arranged with parts of the industrial equipment widely displaced apart from one another such that a control connection from the transmitter to at least one of the receivers can be established for the purpose of converting control signals of the transmitter into working movements of the industrial equipment. The receivers can therefore establish a continuous control connection up to the respective receiver that finally controls the working units of the industrial equipment, whereby simple and safe control remains ensured even under unfavourable external conditions.

Abstract: A process for the control of a plurality of industrial, construction or mobile hydraulic machines, such as cranes, travelers and similar machines, by means of n remote control units (S1 . . . Sn), allocates the remote control units to k concentrators (K1 . . . Kk), whereby the number (k) of concentrators is smaller than the number (n) of remote control units. Preferably, only a single concentrator (K) is provided. The concentrator (K) provides the signals from the remote control units with a suitable address and transmits them via a common data network, such as the power grid (AC), to which the concentrator (K) and control devices (ST1 . . . STm) for the m power units of the industrial machines to be controlled are connected in such a way that a signal is recognized by its address and converted into the control signal for activation of the respective power unit.
