Solar generator with foldable panels especially for a spacecraft

A solar generator especially for a spacecraft or space flight body has a plurality of first collector panels hinged to each other in a column extending in a first direction (D1) when the first collector panels are unfolded and a plurality of second panels coupled to the first panels so that the second panels can be unfolded in a second direction (D2) only after the first panels have been unfolded. The second panels are coupled to the first panels by journal struts or by hinges so that at least one first panel forms with at least one second panel, preferably with two or more second panels, a panel packet. The hinges (40) that articulate the first panels to each other permit unfolding the panel packets in said first direction (D1), whereupon the second panels in the individual packets can be unfolded in the second direction (D2).

Machining Method for Hard-Fine Machining of Noise-Optimized Gears on a Gear-Cutting Machine

ActiveUS20140256223A1Improve uniformityAvoid and at least minimize vibration excitationAutomatic control devicesGrinding feed controlRotational errorEngineering
The present invention relates to a method for hard-fine machining of tooth flanks with corrections and / or modifications on a gear-cutting machine, wherein respective toothed wheel pairings which mesh with one another within a transmission or a test device are machined while taking account of the respective mating flanks, and wherein the tooth flanks of the relevant workpieces are provided with periodic waviness corrections or waviness modifications. In accordance with the invention, the rotational error extent is determined by means of rotational distance error measurement of the toothed wheel pairs in a gear measuring device and / or transmission. This measurement result serves as an input value for defining the amplitude, frequency and phase position for the periodic flank waviness corrections on the tooth flanks of the toothed wheel pairings for production in the gear-cutting machine.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for causing a telephone device to selectively originate a call as a circuit-switched call or a packet-switched call, depending on the telephone number dialed by a user of the telephone device. By way of example, the telephone device can determine that the dialed telephone number is an international telephone number and can responsively originate the call as a packet-switched call, or the telephone device can determine that the dialed telephone number is not an international telephone number and can responsively originate the call as a circuit-switched call.

Managing I/O Operations for Data Objects in a Storage System

Various aspects for managing input / output (I / O) operations for data objects (e.g., large data objects (LOBs)), in a storage system are provided. For instance, a method may include receiving an I / O request for executing an I / O operation on a data object, determining the size of the data object, and determining the data object to be a non-conforming data object relative to a storage threshold of a cache memory device. The method may further include dividing the non-conforming data object into multiple data chunks, each of the data chunks having a size that is less than the storage threshold, moving one or more data chunks stored in one or more memory spaces of the cache memory device to a long-term memory device to free up the one or more memory spaces, and storing one or more of the data chunks of the non-conforming data object in the freed-up memory space(s).

Energy storage aerodynamic braking device and method

In order to generate an efficient aerodynamic braking force, whatever the speed of a vehicle such as an airplane flying in the air, the method includes a step for the production of energy by the vehicle, a step of storage of the energy produced and a step of utilisation of such energy to drive a propeller which generates a force opposing the forward motion of the vehicle. Energy is produced by using the displacement of the vehicle with respect to air using a propeller driving a generator, or using the displacement with respect to the ground, using wheels driving a generator, or using generators driven by motors of the vehicle. The energy can be stored in the pneumatic, electric or kinetic form and the generation and driving means are selected according to the technology used for the storage means.

Device and method for melting a substance with the occurrence of a low level of contamination

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for low-contamination melting of high-purity, aggressive and / or high-melting glass or glass-ceramic. According to the invention, for this purpose a melt is heated in a crucible or melting skull crucible by means of high-frequency radiation and is mixed or homogenized in the melting crucible. It is preferable for a gas nozzle, from which gas bubbles, e.g. oxygen bubbles (known as O2 bubbling), escape into the melt, to be provided at the base of the crucible. This alone makes it possible to achieve surprising multiple benefits in the melting skull crucible. Firstly, unmelted batch which drops into the melt in solid form, for example from above, is melted down more quickly as a result of more intensive mixing with the liquid fraction of the melt, secondly the temperature distribution in the melt is made more even, thirdly a uniform distribution or mixing of different glass constituents is achieved, and fourthly the redox state of the glass can be adjusted.

Method for operating a surgical power tool

A surgical power tool has an actuation assembly which comprises a force sensor and a switch. The force sensor is provided to determine an actuation force produced by the user, and the switch is transferred by the actuation force from a first switching state to a second switching state. A combined evaluation of the force sensor signal and of the switching state enables, for example, a plausibility check for increasing the operational reliability of the power tool.

Data flow control

The invention relates to arranging data flow control in a data transfer system comprising a sender and at least two protocol entities serving the transmission of data from the sender. The originating protocol entity of a suspension request primitive is checked. Suspension is set as the data transmission status for the protocol entity that has originated a suspension request primitive. The originating protocol entity of a resume request primitive is checked before sending it to the sender. Also the status information is checked. Transmission of the resume request primitive to the sender is prevented if suspension is set for any other protocol entity than the originating protocol entity of the resume request primitive.
