20110044762DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MOVING A WORKING MEANS IN THE GROUND - In a method and a device for moving a working means in the ground, a coupling means rotatable about an axis of rotation for establishing a drive connection between a push-pull unit and a rod assembly having at least one projection and/or at least one recess is engaged with the projection and/or the recess of the rod assembly such that via a first contact area of the coupling means a first feed force is transmitted from the push-pull unit to the rod assembly. By the counter force opposite to the first feed force a torque acting on the coupling means is generated, which torque presses a second contact area of the coupling means against the rod assembly with a contact force. By the contact force, a non-positive connection is established between the push-pull unit and the rod assembly. Via this non-positive connection, a second feed force is transmitted to the rod assembly. By at least a part of the first and second feed force acting on the rod assembly a linear movement of the rod assembly is caused.02-24-2011

20100280640METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE PLAYBACK OF DIGITAL AUDIO SIGNALS - A method and a device for the playback of digitalized audio signals that are transmitted packet-oriented from a signal source to at least one signal sink, especially a loudspeaker unit, in a motor vehicle by means of an asynchronous bus system. Connected upstream of the signal sink is an audio-signal processing unit demonstrating a data rate converter, which is fed the digitalized audio signals destined for the signal sink from a control unit over a data line by means of a first data interface of the control unit. The control unit has a second data interface for the connection to the asynchronous bus system and for receiving the digitalized audio signals. A data buffer and a controller are arranged within the control unit. A first and second clocking signal provide the clock rates for the first interface and the data rate converter. These clock rates can be changed by a logic unit.11-04-2010

20080257364Device for filling cigarette tubes with tobacco - A device for filling cigarette tubes with tobacco, wherein the device comprises at least one separating means adapted to detach a tobacco portion from a tobacco block and at least one portioning means adapted to portion the tobacco block, at least one transport means adapted to transport the tobacco block towards the separating means, wherein the portioning means and the transport means are coupled such that the transport means transports the tobacco block in a number of transport steps, and at least one filling means adapted to fill a cigarette tube with the detached tobacco portion. The device further comprises at least one blocking means adapted to block the transport means after each transport step until the at least one filling means has been operated.10-23-2008
20110192406DEVICE FOR FILLING CIGARETTE TUBES - An apparatus for filling a prefabricated cigarette tube includes a housing, a tobacco chamber with a tobacco holder, and a movable pressing bar configured so as to form tobacco introduced into the tobacco chamber into a tobacco strand. An abutment for an end of the tobacco strand is assigned to the tobacco holder, wherein a first length of the to be formed tobacco strand is adjustable to prefrabicated cigarette tubes having different filling-cavity lengths by adjusting a second length of the pressing bar. A slider is configured to be moved relative to the housing so as to fill the prefabricated cigarette tube with the tobacco strand. The tobacco holder is displacably arranged relative to the abutment in a movement direction of the slider by a distance which approximately corresponds to the different filling-cavity lengths.08-11-2011
