Patent number: 11952872Abstract: A detonator positioning device for use with a detonator in a perforating gun assembly is described. The detonator positioning device may be configured for electrically contactably forming an electrical connection within the perforating gun housing by contact. The detonator positioning device may include a body having a first end, a second end, and a central bore extending between the first and second ends. The central bore may be adapted for receiving one or more electrically contactable components of a detonator. The detonator positioning device can align at least one of the one or more electrically contactable components to form an electrical connection with a bulkhead assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: DynaEnergetics Europe GmbHInventors: Christian Eitschberger, Gernot Uwe Burmeister, Thomas Keller Bradfield, Frank Haron Preiss, Thilo Scharf, Liam McNelis

Patent number: 8392218Abstract: A process, a system and a computer program product and computer readable medium are disclosed for the sequential control and execution of a medical task. In at least one embodiment, the task is processed with the aid of a plurality of different, computer-implemented, medical-technical, stateful applications. In at least one embodiment, the invention uses a 3-layer software architecture including a data layer, a business logic layer, and presentation layer. With the aid of a central server, the option is provided of a one-time loading of the extensive datasets for a task and the applications for a task, so that the datasets and the applications are subsequently preserved for a user of the medical task. As a result, multiple waiting periods for the user are avoided.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2009Date of Patent: March 5, 2013Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Detlef Becker, Karlheinz Dorn, Christian Scharf

Publication number: 20110320970Abstract: A method and system for controlling a user interface of a software application which is executed in a runtime environment are disclosed which are easy to implement and manage, yet at the same are also flexible. It is provided according to at least one embodiment of the invention to store in relation to at least one element of the user interface within the scope of the application or a configuration file assigned thereto a specification defining the type and attributes of the at least one element. After the start of the application, the at least one element is then created in accordance with the associated specification by an element control module that is separate from the application.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2011Publication date: December 29, 2011Applicant: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFTInventors: Chiheb Charrad, Christian Scharf

Patent number: 7859842Abstract: A heat sink for cooling a component is disclosed. A medium flows around the heat sink by at least sectional guidance of a main flow and a secondary flow of the medium, the main flow being separated from the secondary flow up to a constriction. After the constriction the secondary flow merges with the main flow.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2009Date of Patent: December 28, 2010Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Klaus Busch, Christian Scharf, Christoph Wiesner

Patent number: 7827496Abstract: A method and a system are for dynamically generating user interfaces for an application, independently of resolution and platform. In this case, a configuration file is read in and interpreted. A layout engine generates the user interface by accessing a mapping which assigns a respective control event to an event handler.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2004Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Karlheinz Dorn, Christian Scharf, Michael Schnitzke, Hans-Martin Von Stockhausen

Patent number: 7752631Abstract: To enable the adaptation of display units, e.g. of a medical device, to different color display capabilities, an individual library of individual user interface components is used. The individual library of individual user interface components is derived from a generically wrapped library of universal user interface components. It is consequently readily possible to modify the graphical user interface.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2006Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Karlheinz Dorn, Mario Plendl, Christian Scharf, Hans-Martin Von Stockhausen
