    Abstract: The present invention relates to an actuator (5) comprising a driving device (15) adapted to move a spindle (20) in first and second rotational directions (200), where the spindle (20) is connected to a nut (25) such that when the spindle (20) rotates the nut (25) is translocated in a third or fourth translational direction (210), where the movement of the nut (25) acts on a deformable part (30), such that the translocation of the nut (25) is reflected in a deformation of the deformable part (30). The deformable part (30) is deformed into a hollow (35) formed between the driving device (15) and the deformable part (30), and the spindle (20) reaches through the deformable part (30) and the hollow (35).

    Abstract: A method for controlling a vapour compression system (1) is disclosed. The vapour compression system (1) comprises a compressor unit (2) comprising at least one main compressor (3) and at least one receiver compressor (4), a heat rejecting heat exchanger (5), a receiver (7), an expansion device (8) and an evaporator (9) being arranged in a refrigerant path. The vapour compression system (1) further comprises a bypass valve (12) fluidly interconnecting the gaseous outlet (10) of the receiver (7) and the main compressor(s) (3). A pressure difference across the bypass valve (12) is measured or derived, and a mass flow rate of refrigerant through the bypass valve (12) is derived, based at least on the pressure difference across the bypass valve (12), and using a fluid model. A minimum mass flow rate of refrigerant required to operate the receiver compressor (4) is derived, based on a minimum displacement volume of the receiver compressor (4) and using a fluid model taking prevailing operating conditions into account. In the case that the derived mass flow rate of refrigerant through the bypass valve (12) exceeds the derived minimum mass flow rate of refrigerant required to operate the receiver compressor (4), the receiver compressor (4) is started and the bypass valve (12) is closed.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a battery powered device for communicating with an access point device (34) of a communication network (36), the device (10) comprising: a communication unit (12) for communicating with the access point device (34); a processing unit (14) for controlling the communication unit (12); wherein the communication unit (12) comprises an active mode and a low power mode; wherein the communication unit (12) is further configured to provide a lost registration signal (46) indicating that the communication unit (12) is not registered at the access point device (34); wherein the processing unit (14) is configured to receive the lost registration signal (46); wherein, upon reception of the lost registration signal (46), the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide a release signal (48) to the communication unit (12), wherein the release signal (48) forces the communication unit (12) to stop communication or to detach from the access point device (34); wherein, upon reception of the lost registration signal (46), the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide a low power mode signal (50), wherein the low power signal transfers the communication unit (12) into the low power mode, wherein the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide an attach signal to the communication unit (12) after a predefined waiting period (54), wherein the attach signal transfers the communication unit (12) to the active mode and which orders the communication unit (12) to get a registration or to establish a connection to the access point device (34). The access point device (34) will therefore grant the communication unit (12) a higher priority for establishing a connection than if the communication unit (12) was not registered or detached for just a short period. Thus, after the waiting period the communication unit (12) will likely require a smaller number of connection attempts than without the waiting period. Since each connection attempt consumes a certain amount of battery power, the communication unit (12) will consume less battery power than without the waiting period. Over the lifetime of the device (10), this will significantly increase the lifetime of the battery and the device (10).

    Abstract: A defrost check valve (2) is described comprising an inlet (3), an outlet (4), a valve seat element (5) forming a valve seat (6) and surrounding a channel (11) connected to the inlet (3), a valve element (7) moveable in a moving direction (16), and a closing spring (8) acting on the valve element (7) in a direction towards the valve seat element (5), wherein the valve element (7) comprises a first pressure area (12) which in a closed condition of the valve is limited by the valve seat (6). Such a defrost check valve (2) should have a higher differential pressure for opening and it must open for almost full flow at a slightly higher pressure difference. To this end a pressure chamber (15) is formed between the valve element (7) and the valve seat element (5) outside the first pressure area (12) and the valve element comprises a second pressure area (20) in the pressure chamber.
