Abstract: A process automation system includes at least one wireless-aware component for detection of the occurrence (e.g., start and end) of a wireless volume data transfer from at least one other component which might be a wireless-unaware component. Upon such detection, the at least one wireless-aware component requests for bandwidth on behalf of the wireless-unaware component to decrease the communication time and subsequently releases this bandwidth again. A method is provided for operation of the process automation system, in which an upload/download is generally detected by either explicit initiation of the upload/download in the wireless-aware component, or by automatic detection in the wireless-aware component.

Abstract: An adjustment device is disclosed for carrying out at least one adjustment function, such as for a motor vehicle seat. The device includes a drive in the form of a planetary gear mechanism. The mechanism has a planet carrier and an output. The output is stopped by a brake device when the drive is not actuated. The planet carrier cooperates with the brake device to release the brake device.

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes an adjusting device, for example for adjusting the height and/or tilt of a seat part structure and/or of a backrest structure connected to the seat part structure, wherein the adjusting device is fastened to the seat part structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to an injection device for the needle-free injection of a medium. Said injection device comprises an injector device and an ampoule unit, said ampoule unit comprising a base (4) holding the medium to be injected. Said base comprises a jacket (5) which exerts pressure on the base, and jacket completely enveloping the base in the longitudinal axial direction.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to a method and device for unifying differing designations of physically identical parameters of different field devices of the same type in an automation system. The field devices being parameterized from at least one central control unit via a communication network. A control unit, in each of the different field devices of the same type, identifies the physically identical parameters by semantic analysis of the differing designations, after which, in each case, an identical identification is attached to the differing designations.

Abstract: An adjusting device is disclosed for performing at least one adjusting function, such as in a vehicle seat. The device comprises a drive having a drive means and an output, a braking device that generally prevents torque from the output acting on the drive means. At least one spring is arranged between the drive and the braking device.

Abstract: The invention relates to an injection device consisting of an injector and an ampoule unit for the needle-free injection of a medium. A needle-free injection device is provided with a first chamber whose interior opens into a nozzle, and with a second chamber whose interior is separated from the interior of the first chamber, where the interiors of the two chambers are connectable to each other, thus allowing a mixing and/or reaction of the media located in the chambers, where, in the first chamber, a powdery medium is preferably accommodated, and in the second chamber, a fluid medium is preferably accommodated, and the fluid medium is preferably transported into the first chamber, for the mixing/reaction of the two media.

Abstract: A level meter for measuring the fill level of a medium in a vessel, includes a reference container that can be connected to the vessel in a manner whereby the level in the reference container is identical to that in the vessel. The reference container is provided with an adapter unit for a microwave level meter operating by the radar principle which adapter unit encompasses an injection device for coupling-in a microwave signal. This constitutes a low-cost solution for connecting a microwave level meter to a reference container, ensuring optimized signal injection.

Abstract: A high-speed sense current amplifier with a low power consumption for a memory cell, the sense current amplifier having: a first current mirror circuit, which amplifies a memory signal current received from the memory cell via a memory signal line and outputs it at a signal output of the sense current amplifier; a second current mirror circuit, which generates a setting current in a manner dependent on the received memory signal current; and an adjustable reference current source, which outputs a reference current to the signal output of the sense current amplifier, the magnitude of the output reference current being set, via a setting line, in a manner dependent on the setting current generated by the second current mirror circuit.
