Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100254570DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING A DRIVEN MOVEMENT ELEMENT, PARTICULARLY A DOOR OR A GATE - A device for controlling a driven movement element with an electronic unit is proposed, which comprises a transmitter for electromagnetic radiation, for example, light, in particular infrared light, and a receiver for electromagnetic radiation emitted by a transmitter for the detection of objects on a propagation path between transmitter and receiver. According to the invention, the electronic unit is designed to detect a temporal change in at least one feature derived from the received electromagnetic radiation and, upon a detection of a change in the at least one feature that is comparatively slow over time, to output a signal that is associated with a detection of smoke.10-07-2010

20080225263SENSOR DEVICE - A sensor device including a source for electromagnetic radiation, a receiver and a control device, the control device being designed for emitting electromagnetic radiation by means of the source and for determining a distance that is covered by the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the source from a reflection surface of an object to the receiver, doing so by evaluating a propagation time of the radiation or a phase of an oscillation modulated onto the radiation. According to the invention, the control device provides an economy mode in which the power of the source is lower in a prescribed time interval by comparison with a normal object detection mode, means being provided to ensure switching back into the normal object detection mode in the event of a predefined object situation.09-18-2008
20090316135SENSOR DEVICE AND SYSTEM HAVING A CONVEYOR AND A SENSOR DEVICE - A sensor device having a sensor arrangement for detecting moving objects that includes a sensor and an electronic unit. The sensor arrangement is designed to detect an object and to subsequently investigate whether there are present within the surface of the object regions that move at a different speed and/or acceleration. The sensor arrangement can also investigate whether the object is accelerating.12-24-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110248850DOOR SYSTEM COMPRISING A SENSOR DEVICE FOR MONITORING VERTICAL DOOR EDGES - A door system comprising a sensor device for monitoring vertical door edges. The sensor device includes a transmitter that generates a light beam that runs along the vertical door edge, and a receiver to receive the light emitted by the transmitter. According to the invention, an element of the sensor device is mounted in the region of the base, preferably in or on the base in front of a vertical door edge.10-13-2011

20100300981WATER TREATMENT POND, SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - A pond receives a flow of contaminated water into the pond substantially tangential to a volume of clarified water which is stored in the pond and which is largely quiescent. The tangential inflow overcomes a large rotational inertia in the stored volume of clarified water and establishes a slow spiral flow path about the periphery of the pond and inwards to a central outlet. The clarified stored water is discharged ahead of the inflowing contaminated water increasing the residence time of the contaminated water in the pond and permitting contaminants to receive at least partial treatment, such as settling of sediment, in the pond.12-02-2010
