Abstract: The invention relates to a fixing element for locking a hinged hand crank on the input shaft of a support winch for semi-trailers, wherein the hand crank is fastened to the input shaft in an articulated manner and can pivot between at least one folded-in rest position and at least one folded-out usage position. According to the invention, said fixing element has a fastening section for fastening to the hand crank and a spring bar connected to the fastening section on which at least one locking section is formed, wherein the locking section reaches over the end face of the input shaft in a form-fitting manner in a folded-out usage position of the hand crank and is simultaneously pulled against said end face of the input shaft.

Abstract: The invention relates to a supporting device for a semi-trailer or the like, comprising an outer supporting tube and an inner supporting tube, wherein the inner supporting tube is telescopically arranged in the outer supporting tube and may be moved in the axial direction relative to the outer supporting tube by a spindle mechanism mounted inside the outer supporting tube. The supporting device may further comprise an actuating device for actuating the spindle mechanism, which is configured as a separate structural unit and arranged outside of the outer supporting tube. The invention further relates to a semi-trailer having at least one such supporting device as well as an actuating device and a transmission device for use in such a supporting device.

Abstract: A simulation method for optimizing transport displacement of workpieces in transfer presses is provided. Conclusions relating to the freedom of motion, number of strokes and program data for tool-specific machine control are determined by manipulating a displacement curve on a digital image of the transfer press which is determined by the simulation method.

Abstract: One aspect of the invention defines a process which allows application providers to remotely activate and authenticate logins from an application client. In one implementation, this is achieved through a three step approach. First, the application client notifies the application service of its successful installation (e.g. by accessing a unique URL). Second, it leverages the built-in security features of a mobile network (e.g. security mechanisms of GSM or IMS access security) to securely deliver a message containing authentication information to the application client. Examples of message transports are SMS or SIP with IPsec as specified by IMS. Third, this information is used to authenticate the application client when accessing the remote application service (e.g. via the Internet).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus consistent with the invention provide the ability to organize a plurality of user identities on a mobile communication device and to process messages for a plurality of user identities on a mobile communication device. A first-level user interface allows a mobile communication device user to access multiple user identities. Responsive to a selection of a user identity, a second-level user interface including a main data screen associated with the selected user identity is displayed. Responsive to a user selecting data from the main data screen, a third-level user interface is displayed to allow user examination of the selected data. Received messages are categorized and associated with a user identity based on the classification result.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotating actuator/pressure actuator (13) comprising a ring-shaped rotary transducer (5) consisting of an inner ring and a rotary ring with a handle (1) and which can rotate around the inner ring about an axis (z) and which is displaceably arranged in a linear manner along the axis (Z) in relation to a housing (11), in addition to an inner part (touchpad 2) which is arranged in an inner area (12) of the ring-shaped rotary transducer (5) and which is displaceable in a linear manner along the axis (z) together with the ring-shaped rotary transducer (5) in relation to the housing (11). Linear displacement of the handle (1) and/or inner part (touchpad 2) triggers a push-button function.
