Abstract:
At least one embodiment of the present invention is directed to a method and/or an apparatus for automatically providing a common modelling pattern as a function of a plurality of stored process models. The common modelling patterns are identified according to three substeps, namely semantic annotation, extraction of pattern based description and composite process pattern mining. The detected common modelling patterns serve as best practice candidates as regards process engineering. At least one embodiment of the present invention finds application in a variety of domains being related to process management, such as process design, process mining and semantic process planning.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pressurised container comprising two plastic casings (12, 14). The aim of the invention is to produce a leakproof container or storage arrangement which is economical to produce. To achieve this, a gap opening (24) between the casings (12, 14) extends up to a point, at which the casings (12, 14) are positioned together in a coaxial manner and an external support ring (22) comprising a wedge-shaped tapering (28) extends to said point, said external support ring being embodied as an individual piece or comprising at least two metal, ring-shaped individual segments (28, 30).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an attenuation device, particularly a pulsation attenuator, having a casing (1) defining a fluid chamber (11) through which a fluid may flow along a flow axis (7), and having an attenuation element made of a resilient material located within the casing (1). Said attenuation device is characterized in that the attenuation element has at least two annular bodies (15, 17) that are disposed in an at least partially overlapping manner, surrounding the flow axis (7) at least partially.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a hydraulic accumulator, particularly in the form of a suction stream stabilizer, having an accumulator housing (10) which is provided with two fluid connections (16) between which a deflection device (22) is arranged which has an adjoining housing part (26) which accommodates a separating element which separates the interior (18) of the accumulator housing (10) from an accumulator volume (30). Solutions for long-term and functionally reliable operation can be achieved on account of the separating element being formed from a piston (28) or a bellows (50).
Abstract:
A method for processing mail, wherein a plurality of mailing items inserted into insertion places are collected and subsequently transported in a container to postal centers where they are sorted in sorting devices according to postal categories. The invention is characterized in that the mail is placed in transport containers which are transported to unloading areas in postal centers. When the transport container is filled and/or during the transportation of the container to the postal centers, random partial pre-sorting of mail takes place according to postal categories so that, when, the mail is removed from the containers at the unloading areas, it is in the form of piles formed by the predetermined pre-sorting method and sorted according to the postal categories, whereupon it is guided to subsequent processing stations according to said postal categories.
Abstract:
A hydroaccumulator, especially a membrane accumulator, has an accumulator housing with two housing parts and a separating element in the housing. The separating element can be a separating membrane dividing the accumulator housing into a gas chamber and a fluid chamber. The gas chamber is connected to carry gas to and from gas refiller through a connection. The gas refiller is formed from an additional housing part connected to the accumulator housing to form a unit. The connection is at least one connecting opening in the accumulator housing connecting the interior of the additional housing part to the gas chamber. Additional gas accumulator volume is provided without otherwise conventional pipework to save money and installation space and avoid conventional leaks which occur in the area of the pipework.
Abstract:
A Hall sensor array for offset-compensated magnetic field measurement comprises a first and at least one additional pair of Hall sensor elements. Each Hall sensor element has four terminals, of which two act as power supply terminals for supplying an operating current and two act as measurement terminals for measuring a Hall voltage. Respective first supply terminals of each Hall sensor element are connected together and to a first terminal of a common voltage source and respective second supply terminals of each Hall sensor element are connected together and to a second terminal of the common voltage source so that the common voltage source supplies an operating current for the Hall sensor elements. The Hall sensor elements are operated in the spinning current mode so that the offset voltages of the Hall sensor elements approximately cancel one another out in a revolution so that the Hall signal contributions which actually depend on the magnetic field remain.
Abstract:
A baby diaper-changing pad suitable for use in a passenger motor vehicle having at least two rows of seats has a roll-up mat of an elastic material which has at two opposite ends straps and/or loops by which the mat can be affixed to two head supports of two seats of the vehicle disposed one behind the other in the direction of travel. A soft baby pad is provided on the inner side between the ends with the straps and/or loops. The arrangement of the baby pad on the mat and the dimensions of the mat and of its straps and/or loops are chosen such that, when the mat is affixed to the head supports, it rests in that area with its exterior on a seat surface of the rear seat in the direction of travel in which the baby pad is disposed on the inner side of the mat.
Abstract:
An arrangement is provided for securing objects against a sliding in a cargo space of a motor vehicle. Supporting elements are arranged perpendicularly to the cargo space floor and can be adjusted relative to the cargo space floor between a lifted active position and a lowered passive position. A cargo plate extends in parallel to the cargo space floor and has openings which can each be penetrated by a supporting element. The cargo plate is further developed such that the loading of the cargo space can take place in a normal manner and a securing of the objects can be ensured during the transport. A lifting device causes a relative movement between the cargo plate and the supporting elements which extends perpendicularly to the cargo space floor. In a loading position, the ends facing the cargo space of the supporting elements situated in their active position end flatly with the top side of the cargo plate and, in a securing position, the supporting elements, in their active position, extend through the opening in each case assigned to them into the cargo space and in each case being lowerable into their passive position.
