Abstract: A stand assembly for holding handheld electronic devices in a multitude of positions or locations having a first section with a curved end magnetically attached to second section having and indented surface. The first section also attaches to a surface, the second section either is contiguous with a portable electronic device, a carrying case, or other item; or has a means to attach to another surface. A high-friction elastomeric material, or similar friction producing material, helps to secure the first and second sections together, or the second section against another flat magnetic surface.

Abstract: A symmetrical voltage divider whose tap is supplied with a reference voltage via a resistor is connected between the terminals of an inductive sensor. A diagnostic voltage is applied to the tap. Using evaluation devices, the diagnostic voltage is compared with two threshold values in a stationary state, and then sampled in the operational state, and a difference is calculated from the largest and smallest sampled, values and is compared with a third threshold value. Short circuits or line interruptions are detected from the comparison result and are displayed.

Abstract: Biological material is suspended in a liquid and, in the presence of reverberative bodies suspended in the suspension of biological material, subjected to ultrasound thereby to disintegrate the biological material. The disintegration is conducted in a spherical chamber at approximately the center of which is the radiating surface of a sonotrode. The diameter of the chamber is at least three times the diameter of the radiating surface and the radiating surface faces the bottom of the chamber. The suspension of the biological material is pumped upwards through the chamber.
