The present invention relates to a signal processing method for weight signals (W) of scales, in particular combination scales (K).
The present invention relates to a signal processing method for weight signals (W) of scales, in particular combination scales (K).
Signal processing is performed using preprocessed discrete values (W(i)) of the weight signal (W), which are supplied to at least one artificial neural network. With the help of this at least one artificial neural network, an estimated value (SW) for the actual weight is determined, for example in a weighing device of a combination scale. This is performed faster than if waiting for the actual weight signal. The estimated values (SW) are forwarded to the combination scale (KW), which uses them to form combinations.
The present invention includes a clamping device (1) for connecting clamping parts (K), wherein, by movement of a single tensioning element (4), both at least one clamping section (3) can be rotated relative to a connecting joint (2), or two clamping sections (3) can be rotated relative to one another, and, by clamping at least one clamping jaw (5), the clamping parts (K) can be clamped in the at least one clamping section (3). Thus, by moving a single tensioning element (4), both clamping and fixing and releasing rotation of the at least one clamping section (3) is possible. This clamping device (1) is easy to handle, highly variable, and also takes into account the regulations of hygienic design, since no gaps, cavities or threads are exposed here in which dirt could accumulate.

The present application deals with a grid flap, comprising a multiplicity of vertical and horizontal grid struts, a frame which surrounds the grid struts, wherein a vertical and a horizontal grid strut respectively overlap in a crossing point, characterized in that the crossing points of the grid struts are made of one piece. As the grid is self-supporting because of its topology (made of one piece) and the overlapping of two grid struts can be avoided, double areas or cavities can be avoided, which contributes to a hygienic design of the grid flap.

A product output device for a product supply system, in which a first product supply device and a second product supply device provide product amounts in a first collecting container and a second collecting container. Both collecting containers are provided with respective first closure flaps and second closure flaps. As soon as the collecting containers are positioned above the product receiving device, the closure flaps can open in order to drop the product into the product receiving device. The collecting container, comprising the first collecting container and the second collecting container, can be pivoted to an output position of the first collecting container, or to a output position of the second collecting container. Herein, the pivoting movement to the respectively different output positions begins before the first closure flaps have closed.
A container for use in a scale or combination scale, for example, which is used as formatting container includes two or more side walls, whose position with respect to each other is variable. The outlet of the container is closed by two or more opening flaps that are pivotable or swingable and, therefore, can release the outlet of the container. A common drive moves the side walls and the opening flaps. Therefore, a container can be entirely emptied, as blocked or accumulated product parts can drop downwards via enlargement of the cross section of the container by a movement of the side walls.

A sealing profile is used in a clamp. The clamp includes two circumferential sealing sections and a connection section and is designed that the circumferential sealing sections classed the part to be clamped and therefore seal the gap between the clamping means and the part to be clamped, and the connecting section finishes with the outer contours of the clamping sections and therefore seal the clamping slits between the clamping sections of the clamping means to the other side. The sealing section contributes to the hygienic design of cross-clamps and can be used in cross-clamps of clamping parts in the food industry or food processing industry. The continuous sealing profile permits cavities and gaps to be sealed to prevent a microorganism growth and ensures that the part of the plant is easy to clean without leaving cleaning agent residue to accumulate.
A separation device according to the invention has a separation means, for separating one part of a product stream, and at least one separation groove for transporting the separated product stream. Further, a reservoir is provided, wherein the separation groove is arranged in a way, that the separate product stream is transferrable into the reservoir. The reservoir is thereby formed in a way that the product stream can be transported, which is supplied from the separation groove into the reservoir.
