  • Publication number: 20220332523
    Abstract: A handling device comprising an extending support, comprising a first projection element which is arranged on the support in a rotationally fixed and/or non-displaceable manner and extends in a first projection plane transversely to the support in a first projection direction, comprising a second projection element which is connected to the first projection element via a first joint so as to be pivotable in a second projection plane, comprising a third projection element which is connected to the second projection element via a second joint so as to be pivotable in a third projection plane, wherein, along the support axis, the first projection plane overlies the second projection plane and the second projection plane overlies the third projection plane, wherein the second projection element can be pivoted under the first projection element and the third projection element can be pivoted under the second projection element and the first projection element.

  • Patent number: 9733109
    Abstract: A position-measuring device includes: a first subassembly having a measuring standard on which at least one coded track is provided, and a scanning unit, which is able to generate position signals that may be used to generate an absolute digital position value by scanning the at least one coded track in a measuring direction; a second subassembly having at least one peripheral unit adapted to execute a supplementary or an auxiliary functionality of the position-measuring device; and a plurality of electrical lines, which connect the first subassembly and the second subassembly to each other for the transmission of electrical signals. The position-measuring device is able to be operated in an initialization mode and in a standard operating mode. All components of the first subassembly required for the operation in the standard operating mode are components that are suitable for use in a radiation region of a machine.

  • Patent number: 8359764
    Abstract: A holding device for a scale including a support body, a first solid body link and a second body link. The first solid body link acts as a connection between a first longitudinal side of a scale and the support body, via which the scale can be seated, shiftable in a measuring direction, on the support body. The second solid body link acts as a connection between a second longitudinal side of the scale and the support body, via which the scale can be seated, shiftable in the measuring direction, on the support body, wherein the second longitudinal side and the first longitudinal side are arranged opposite each other.
