20080320163 | Method for Transmitting a Message, Network Node and Network - A method allows message transmission in a peer-to-peer network using chord topology, in which some of the nodes have access protection which allows reception of messages only from those network addresses to which a message has previously been sent. A network such as this is dependent on each node maintaining a list with further nodes, referred to in general as a finger list. In order to allow communication despite access protection, each node sends a request at fixed time intervals to the nodes in its list, to send it a message. This makes it possible for each node to send messages to the nodes in its list. A search request for a file is passed on via intermediate nodes in the network such that the searching node is provided with access to a destination node which can offer the file, and the access protection of the destination node is cancelled. | 12-25-2008 |
20100287557 | METHOD FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF TASKS IN A DECENTRALIZED DATA NETWORK - In a method for the management of tasks in a decentralized data network with a plurality of nodes for carrying out the tasks, resources are distributed based on a mapping rule, in particular a hash function. A task that is to be suspended is distributed by dividing the process image of the task into segments and by distributing the segments over the nodes using the mapping rule. Thus, a distributed swap space is created so that tasks can also be carried out on nodes whose swap space is not sufficient on its own. The method can be used in embedded systems with a limited storage capacity and/or in a voltage distribution system, wherein the nodes are, for example, switching units in the voltage distribution system. The method can also be used in any other technical systems such as, for example, a power generation system, an automation system and the like. | 11-11-2010 |

20080292051 | IMAGING DEVICE - An imaging device with a radiographic source and with at least one image receiver, with an imaging detector able to be assigned to the image receiver or to each image receiver and with the image receiver or each image receiver including a sensor for registration of the imaging detector, with a signal output of the sensor being connected directly in a circuit to a signal input of the radiographic source. | 11-27-2008 |
20090038073 | Protection for a Lifting Unit - The invention relates to a lifting unit for a patient support. Said lifting unit comprises a base plate, a motor drive, a lifting drive driven by said motor drive and received in the base plate. Said lifting drive is adapted to carry out a lifting movement and a movement in the opposite direction. A triggering element is activated when the pressure exerted by the lifting drive on the base plate falls below a defined minimum value. The movement of the lifting drive is stopped in response to the activation of the triggering element. If the patient support collides with an obstacle during lifting, the pressure exerted by the lifting drive on the base plate is reduced. The reduced pressure is detected by the triggering element and the movement of the patient support is stopped. | 02-12-2009 |
20090049613 | Patient Supporting Device - The invention relates to a patient-supporting device for a diagnostic and/or therapeutic appliance, with a bench which is mounted so as to be vertically adjustable, and with a spindle drive which is designed for adjusting the height of the bench. According to the invention, the spindle drive is mounted on a base plate in a ball joint in order to avoid a situation where errors of alignment between spindle nut and spindle can be caused by a patient not being centered on the bench. | 02-26-2009 |
20120114106 | X-RAY APPARATUS WITH A RADIATION DETECTOR - The present embodiments relate to an X-ray apparatus having a movable detector housing, in which a radiation detector is arranged. The X-ray apparatus includes at least one releasable interlock device configured to inhibit or enable the maneuverability of the movable detector housing. At least one control element is arranged on the movable detector housing, using which the at least one releasable interlock device is actuated. At least one grab handle element is also arranged on the movable detector housing. The movable detector housing is movable by hand and is holdable by a patient using the at least one grab handle element. | 05-10-2012 |
20150044971 | Generator Control Device - A generator control device for a system generating x-radiation, and a corresponding operating method, arrangement and system are provided. The operating method for the generator control device includes providing configuration data for the system that generates the x-radiation via at least one first communication interface. The method also includes receiving at least one signal for triggering generation of the x-radiation via a second communication interface or the first communication interface. The method includes receiving information for displaying image data from a unit receiving the x-radiation, and providing at least one smart device with the information via a further communication interface. | 02-12-2015 |
