  • Publication number: 20240085518
    Abstract: Described herein is a mobile device with an optical detector including: at least one illumination source adapted to generate at least one illumination pattern for illuminating an object, where the illumination pattern includes a regular and/or constant and/or periodic pattern; at least one sensor element having a matrix of optical sensors, the optical sensors each having a light-sensitive area, where each optical sensor is configured to generate at least one sensor signal in response to an illumination of the light-sensitive area by at least one light beam propagating from the object to the detector; and at least one evaluation device adapted to determine at least one region of interest.

  • Publication number: 20050247077
    Abstract: An evaporator for a refrigeration system, comprising a tube provided with fins and mounted in the form of a coil, conducting a refrigerating fluid therewithin and comprising tube portions (20a) arranged parallel to each other and which are transversal to the direction of a forced airflow (F) that passes externally through the evaporator (10), from a first end region (11) of air admission, to a second end region (12) of air outlet of the evaporator (10). The tube portions (20a) are arranged in the form of at least one coil (S), having an inlet end (21) provided in the second end region (12) of the evaporator (10) and an outlet end (22) provided in the first end region (11) of the evaporator (10), so that the refrigerating fluid flows through the coil (S) in counterflow in relation to the forced airflow (F).

  • Patent number: 6782627
    Abstract: The chain tension of a motorized chainsaw (10) with a housing (12), a sprocket (22) mounted thereon, and a blade (14) that is aligned with this sprocket, which blade protrudes beyond the housing (12) and guides a saw chain (16) engaged with the sprocket (22) in a revolving manner, where the blade (14) is mounted such that it can be adjusted by means of longitudinal displacement in relation to the housing (12) and/or the sprocket (22) by means of a chain tensioning device (28) and where the chain tensioning device (28) has a stop (32) that can be fixed to the blade (14) and a cam (30) that can be rotated by means of a rotational member (36, 38) can be adjusted in a more comfortable and reliable fashion by virtue of the fact that the cam (30) can be locked in a form-fitting and rotationally secure manner in relation to the housing (12) by way of the rotational member (36, 38).

  • Patent number: 6059493
    Abstract: The hand-held machine tool has a tool holder (20) provided with a receptacle (19) into which a shaft portion (15) of a tool (16) is axially insertable. The tool holder (20) has a longitudinal axis (11) and includes a guide device (18) for axially guiding the tool (16); a device (23) for rotary slaving of the tool (16); a retaining device (28) for axially securing the tool (16) and a locking member (34) for locking the retaining device (28) in an open configuration for insertion or removal of the tool (16). The retaining device (28) is located in front of the guide device in an insertion direction of the tool (16) in the tool holder (16). The retaining device (28) is provided with an opening (31) for passage of the tool (16) through it.
