20150256081 | MODULAR MULTILEVEL DC/DC CONVERTER FOR HVDC APPLICATIONS - A DC converter is suitable for continuous operation for connecting high-voltage DC networks having different voltages. The DC converter has a first partial converter and a second partial converter, which are connected in series with each other, forming a converter series circuit. The converter series circuit extends between the DC terminals of a DC connection. The second partial converter extends between the DC terminals of a second DC connection. The first partial converter and the second partial converter are connected to each other via a power exchange device, such that the exchange of electrical power between the first partial converter and the second partial converter is made possible via the power exchange device. | 09-10-2015 |

20130229174 | Proximity Sensor and Method For Determining The Proximity To An Electrically Conductive Body - The invention relates to a proximity sensor and a method for determining the proximity to an electrically conductive body. By means of a transmitting arrangement, to this end an alternating magnetic field is transmitted at a selected frequency an alternating magnetic field registered by a receiving arrangement. Moreover, frequencies of the registered alternating magnetic field, which are outside a predefined frequency band comprising the selected frequency and have an amplitude value above a predefined threshold value, are detected by means of a detection means. In a control logic, by means of a blocking circuit, frequencies of a predefined frequency band comprising the detected frequency or a plurality of predefined frequency bands comprising in each case one of the detected frequencies, are defined as blocked frequencies. Moreover, a frequency following the respective selected frequency and different from the selected frequency and the blocked frequencies, denoted hereinafter as the following frequency of the respectively selected frequency, is defined in a selection controller. By means of a time control of the control logic, the following frequency of a selected frequency is continuously selected as a newly selected frequency for a new time window following immediately after or chronologically spaced apart from the selected time window. | 09-05-2013 |

20120243620 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DIGITAL DATA TRANSMISSION - An expansion of known serial data links, for example ETHERNET, published in IEEE802.3, for directly transmitting random events without having to carry out synchronization with a clock signal or having to wait for a cyclical transmission time. Two different, random events are represented using two differently coded individual pulses and are transmitted in an event-controlled manner. A jitter-free latency of 45 ns between the event and its reception is possible over a line length of 8 m, for example. The expansion is particularly suitable for the short, digital data links between a node and a plurality of modules, as are required in modern electrical discharge machines, machine tools and similar electronic systems. | 09-27-2012 |
20130168362 | ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINING METHOD AND APPARATUS - A method of controlling an electric discharge machining apparatus having at least a tool electrode and a workpiece comprising positioning the tool electrode relative to the workpiece; generating at least one first type discharge impulse and at least one second type discharge impulse, wherein the at least one first type discharge impulse has a longer impulse duration than the impulse duration of the at least one second type discharge impulse, wherein the first type discharge impulse causes formation of a protective film against wear on the tool electrode and the second type discharge impulse causes erosion at least on the tool electrode; and applying the first and second type discharge impulses to a gap between the tool electrode and workpiece for material removal from the workpiece, wherein a ratio between the first and second type discharge impulses applied to the tool electrode causes predefined wear of the tool electrode. | 07-04-2013 |
