Methods and apparatus controlling the alignment between refining surfaces of opposite refining discs are disclosed which are relatively rotatable and which are incorporated in a refiner for disintegrating and refining lignocellulose-containing material in a refining gap between the refining surfaces. The disclosed method includes positioning at least three sensors at least three measurement positions, measuring the vibrations at each of the measurement positions during refiner operation, and comparing each of the measured vibrations at each of the measurement positions with each other. The apparatus disclosed includes at least three sensors disposed in at least three predetermined measurement positions, each of the sensors comprising a vibration sensor disposed on a refining disc for measuring the vibrations at the measurement positions whereby measuring can take place during operation of the refiner and a comparator for comparing the measurements of the measurement positions to provide a comparison therebetween.

An output circuit has a smaller area and restrains outputs from becoming unstable even if a power supply voltage is lower than an operating voltage. A supply terminal of an inverter circuit is provided with switch circuit, and the switch circuit stops the operation of the inverter circuit when the power supply voltage is lower than the operating voltage of the circuit. Further, the output terminal of the inverter circuit is provided with a current source to fix the output to the power supply voltage when the operation of the inverter circuit is stopped.

A method of interrupting a printing operation in a continuous transport process in which a first roller and a second roller transports plural printing mediums including a first medium on a tray in a transport direction to a printing area at which the printing operation is performed to each printing medium, the second roller is arranged at a downstream side of the first roller in the transport direction, and a third roller comes in contact with the first roller at a contact point to transport the printing mediums together with the first roller and is separated from the first roller not to transport the printing mediums, the method includes: separating the third roller from the first roller, when a trailing end edge of the first medium at least apart of which is disposed in the printing area is located at an upstream side of a predetermined point in the transport direction, and driving the second roller to transport the first medium after the third roller is separated from the first roller. The predetermined point is arranged at a downstream side of the contact point in the transport direction.

The present invention relates to a circuit breaker and a method of controlling the same. More specifically, the present invention is to provide a circuit breaker capable of performing an interruption operation and an interruption monitoring function through an integrated control contact for transmitting a control signal, in order to solve the conventional problem, i.e., a structural problem due to separation of control contacts, and a malfunction of a monitoring function when an interlock is set, and a method of controlling the circuit breaker. With such a configuration, the circuit breaker can have a simplified structure, and can be designed and controlled more easily and simply.

A fruit sorting table includes: a conveyor for conveying a fruit crop along a conveying plane, between an intake area and a discharge area, a screen extending in the conveying plane between the intake area and the discharge area, the screen having openings for sorted fruit to pass through from the conveying plane to an area for receiving sorted fruit situated under the conveying plane. The sorting table has at least one device for measuring one of a quantity of fruit and a flow rate of fruit passing through the screen over at least one reference section of the screen, the reference section being situated between the fruit intake area and the discharge area, and set apart from the fruit intake area, a device for adjusting the sorting table in response to the measurement device. Application, in particular, to sorting a grape crop.

The present invention is to provide an IP address parameter setting method to prevent from setting incorrect parameter and interrupting the operation of a remote network apparatus when setting up the IP address parameter of the remote network apparatus again, which comprises the steps of activating a timer for time counting, enabling to receive a control confirmation of a control platform within a configured time and, if no control confirmation is received within the configured time, restoring the IP address parameter to a backup IP address parameter, allowing the control platform to manage the remote network apparatus and set up the address parameter of the remote network apparatus again.

A portable circuit interrupting apparatus for use on a circuit isolating device and associated methods of formation and use are provided. The portable circuit interrupting apparatus includes a main housing body and a sleeve coaxially mounted therein. The sleeve is slidable between an extended and retracted position. A shunt circuit segment is connected between ring and hook engaging terminals which engage and form an electrical connection between ring-like and hook-like conducting parts of the circuit isolating device. A shunt circuit segment interrupts the electrical connection in response to movement of the sleeve from the retracted position to the extended position. At least portions of a reset plunger extend inwardly through an opening in a medial portion of the sleeve when in the extended position. An operation counter is connected to and responds to the inward extension of the reset plunger to count a number of circuit interrupting operations.
