20100187456Adjustment Device for an Open-Close Valve - An adjustment device for an open-close valve (07-29-2010
20100282990Actuating Device for an On/off Valve - An actuating device for an on/off valve having a pneumatic drive that is connected to a compressed air supply by a solenoid valve, wherein when driven with a control voltage, the solenoid valve ventilates the pneumatic drive with the compressed air and, when the control voltage is not present, vents the pneumatic drive. The pneumatic drive moves the on/off valve into an operating position during ventilation and moves it into a safety position during venting. To permit the performance of partial-stroke tests in the simplest way possible, a device for performing the partial-stroke test includes a controllable switch which is closed in a quiescent state, and in this case supplies the control voltage to the solenoid valve. The controllable switch is opened by a control signal that is generated to perform the partial-stroke test. The control signal is supplied to the controllable switch by a position switch that is closed in the operating position of the on/off valve and is opened when the on/off valve reaches a predefined position in the direction of the safety position.11-11-2010
20100315069METHOD FOR CHECKING THE OPERATIONAL CAPABILITY OF A FINAL CONTROL DEVICE - A control device with a valve adjusted by a control element is provided. A position sensor detects an actual position of the control element and an electro-pneumatic position controller generates a pneumatic control variable as a function of the actual and desired positions. The pneumatic control variable is supplied to the control drive via a magnetic valve activated by a supply voltage supplied by an instrumentation and control device. For carrying out a test of the magnetic valve, the magnetic valve is deactivated briefly. To initiate, monitor, and evaluate the test of the magnetic valve, the supply voltage is supplied to the magnetic valve via a controllable switch. The controllable switch is opened by a magnetic valve test signal generated by the instrumentation and control device. The magnetic valve test signal is supplied to the controllable switch via a limit switch which is opened when the control element reaches a specified position.12-16-2010

20090124146Ship propulsion unit and ship propulsion method - The invention relates to a ship propulsion unit with drive devices in the hull and all underwater pod, which is located outside of the hull and which has a front propeller and a rear propeller as well as torque transmitting devices between the drive devices and the propellers. The torque transmitting devices contain: a torque transmitting shalt that is shared by both propellers and serves to transmit torque from the drive devices into the underwater pod; front transmission devices, which are placed in the underwater pod and which are located between the shared torque transmitting shaft or both propellers and the front propeller, and; rear transmission devices that are located between the shared torque transmitting shaft of both propellers and the rear propeller. The invention also relates to a ship propulsion method during which a front propeller and a rear propeller, which are assigned to an underwater pod located outside of the hull, are driven by drive devices in the hull via torque transmitting devices. Both propellers are driven via: a torque transmitting shaft, which is contained in the torque transmitting devices, shared by both propellers, and which serves to transmit torque from the drive devices to the underwater pod; front transmission devices, which are placed in the underwater pod and which are located between the shared torque transmitting shaft of both propellers and the front propeller, and; rear transmission devices that are located between the shared torque transmitting shaft of both propellers and the rear propeller.05-14-2009

20090169088METHOD FOR OPERATING AN X-RAY DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING QUALITY VALUES - A method for checking an x-ray diagnostic apparatus is provided. Fluoroscopic series of x-ray images of a technical phantom are digitally acquired and stored. Difference between a dynamic image and a background image is calculated. A measuring field is predicted. Priori information about the shape of a clinically relevant object is determined. Hough transformation on a gray value image corresponding to the difference is applied. Contrast of the object from the Hough-transformed gray value image is determined. A square of the determined contrast is calculated. A noise variance is calculated by determining a sum of a noise variance of a homogenous image region and a variance of the background image. A contrast-to-noise ratio of the determined contrast and the calculated noise variance is determined. A square of the contrast-to-noise ratio is dynamically averaged. A Clinical Relevant Fluoroscopy Performance index for the x-ray diagnostic apparatus is determined.07-02-2009
20110198508Method for Noise Correction for a Flat-Panel Detector - For noise correction in connection with a flat-panel x-ray detector, noise signals of a dark reference area are checked for deviations exceeding a specified threshold which, if any are present, will be taken into consideration separately for calculating the correction factor derived from the noise signal. Image artifacts due, for example, to high-contrast objects such as, for instance, cardiac pacemakers or metallic implants, in the x-ray image will be avoided through this measure.08-18-2011
