| 20080208519 | Device and method for monitoring the position of a cable in a cable operated transportation system and a cable operated transportation system - In order to improve a cable position monitoring device for monitoring the position of a cable guided in the rollers of a roller assembly in at least one first cable roller that is to be monitored of the roller assembly of a cable operated transportation system comprising at least one first and at least one second cable roller defining a reference roller, such that a threatening cable-dislodgement of the cable from at least one cable roller of the transportation system can be recognized in a simple manner, it is proposed that a movement-magnitude detecting device be provided for determining a first movement-magnitude of the at least one first cable roller and a second movement-magnitude of the reference roller, and that an evaluating device be provided for comparing the first and second movement-magnitudes and for determining a mutual movement-magnitude deviation between the first and second movement-magnitudes which corresponds to a safe-to-operate status of the transportation system. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20110073000 | Wear monitoring system, cable operated transportation system and a method for monitoring wear-prone parts therein - In order to increase the operational reliability of a cable operated transportation system, there is proposed a wear monitoring system for monitoring the wear and/or abrasion of at least one system component of a cable operated transportation system comprising a support cable and/or a traction cable and/or a hoisting cable and also at least one drive unit wherein said system component is subjected to wear and/or abrasion and is mounted in rotating and/or circulating manner, including a parameter measuring device for measuring an actual value and/or a time-dependent actual value function of at least one electrical and/or mechanical parameter of the at least one system component and/or the drive unit and also including an evaluating device for determining a parameter deviation of the actual value from a desired value in dependence on time or a time interval and/or of the actual value function from a time-dependent desired value function of the at least one parameter, which parameter deviation corresponds to the state of abrasion and/or the state of wear of the at least one system component. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20100004092 | METHOD FOR ACTIVATING A CLUTCH ARRANGEMENT - A method for opening a closed clutch arrangement of a drivetrain for a motor vehicle. The clutch arrangement is activated in such a way that the torque which it can transmit is reduced up to an opening point at which torque can no longer be transmitted via the clutch arrangement. The clutch arrangement is placed into an intermediate slip state before the opening point is reached. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20110071211 | MicroRNA (miRNA) And Downstream Targets For Diagnostic And Therapeutic Purposes - The present invention relates to a promoter region of a microRNA, the use of a microRNA, in particular miR-21, and related elements for the diagnosis and for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or prevention of fibrosis and/or fibrosis related diseases. Additionally, the invention concerns antisense oligonucleotides against targets of miR-21. A cell deficient for miR-21, the promoter region and targets of miR-21 and a knock-out organism thereof are also encompassed. Finally, the invention is directed to a method for diagnosing fibrosis and/or fibrosis related diseases and to a method for screening a pharmaceutically active compound for the treatment of fibrosis and/or fibrosis related diseases. The present invention further relates to compositions for use in the treatment, amelioration, and/or prevention of fibrosis. In certain embodiments, the compositions modulate the activity of a miRNA for the treatment, amelioration, and/or prevention of fibrosis. In certain embodiments, the compositions inhibit the activity of miR-21 for the treatment, amelioration, and/or prevention of fibrosis. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20100010073 | MICRORNA (MIRNA) FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF HEART DISEASES - The invention relates to microRNAs (miRNAs) for the diagnosis, prophylaxis and/or treatment of heart diseases. It relates in particular to SEQ ID No: 1 to SEQ ID No: 29 for the diagnosis, prophylaxis and/or treatment of heart diseases. In addition, the invention relates to the use of these sequences to produce a medicament for heart diseases and for the diagnosis thereof. Also encompassed are a method for the diagnosis of a heart disease, a kit and an expression vector comprising these sequences, a cell which contains the expression vector, and also a method for modulating a heart disease and a method for screening a pharmaceutically active compound for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a heart disease. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20090133986 | APPARATUS FOR ACCEPTING AND DISPENSING BANKNOTES - The invention relates to an apparatus for accepting and dispensing or returning bank notes, including a pocket which is dividable by means of a dividing element into two areas for inputting and dispensing or returning bank notes, wherein the dividing element can be moved within the pocket in order to form the two areas, with a clamping element which can be moved within the pocket independently from the dividing element, in order to clamp bank notes disposed in the pocket inside the pocket and to transport them, wherein for clamping bank notes the clamping and transport element is moved in a first direction within the pocket on top of bank notes disposed in the pocket, and transports bank notes to be dispensed or returned out of the area of the dividing element at least for the most part. The dividing element is subsequently moved out of the area of the bank notes disposed in the pocket within the pocket past the clamping and transport element in a second direction that is contrary to the first direction. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090134071 | APPARATUS FOR ACCEPTING AND DISPENSING BANK NOTES - The invention relates to an apparatus for accepting and dispensing or returning bank notes, including an apparatus having a pocket for accepting and dispensing or returning bank notes, which is dividable by means of a dividing element into two areas for inputting and dispensing or returning bank notes, wherein the dividing element consists of at least two non-interconnected parts which can be moved together within the pocket in order to form the two areas. Each part of the dividing element is movably arranged on a respectively opposite side wall of the pocket, as well as at least one clamping element which is disposed between the parts of the dividing element and can be moved within the pocket independently from the dividing element, in order to clamp bank notes disposed in the pocket inside the pocket. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090206541 | APPARATUS FOR SINGLING OF SHEET MATERIAL - Apparatus for singling sheet material, in particular bank notes, which is inputted into an input area of the apparatus as a stack and is transported up to a singler, which transfers individual pieces of sheet material of the stack of sheet material to a sheet transport system, which transports the singled sheet material in a transport direction, a sensor disposed in transport direction upstream of the singler, which substantially extends over the width of the input area, generating signals which specify whether and in which area of the width of the input area the sheet material is present, and a control device evaluating the signals of the sensor during a transport of the stack of sheet material to the singler and comparing occurring fluctuations and changes of the signals of the sensor regarding the presence or absence of sheet material with predetermined threshold values for fluctuations and changes of the signals of the sensor, in order to derive a statement from the occurring fluctuations and changes of the signals of the sensor, whether the pieces of sheet material forming the stack of sheet material are aligned to each other with respect to their edges, and whether the stack of sheet material has an alignment which substantially is in parallel to the transport direction of the transport system. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100025308 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ACCEPTING OR DISPENSING BANK NOTES - The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for accepting or dispensing or returning bank notes. An operator wishing to remove bank notes protruding from the apparatus for dispensing or returning, is assisted during removal in that the bank notes are transported towards the operator by the apparatus as soon as the operator grasps the bank notes and starts pulling or moving them out of the apparatus. | 02-04-2010 |
