Abstract: The embodiments relate to reducing condensate precipitate on inner surfaces of an outer skin of an aircraft and adjacent components. The condensate precipitate is reduced by supplying dry air to an upper region of an air gap which extends between the upper region and a lower region and is disposed between the outer skin of an aircraft and an insulation arranged between a cabin wall and the outer skin of an aircraft. The dry air may be obtained with low effort and at low cost by sucking it off from the lower region of the air gap and conducted in one or more lines to the upper region of the air gap, where it is allowed to re-enter the air gap. The lines are connected to fans which create a pressure difference in the lines, which moves the dry air from the inlet opening or openings to the outlet openings.

Abstract: A housing assembly for a component includes a base portion having a holding element, a cover portion having an actuation element, and a carrier element carrying the component. The holding element holds the carrier element by engaging with the actuation element. The actuation element applies a contact force on the holding element and is adjustable with respect to the holding element in at least one direction when the holding element is engaged with the actuation element.

Abstract: A passive current sensor includes a pair of electrically conductive busbars, a shunt resistor electrically connecting the busbars, and a carrier having a first pair of voltage drop measuring contacts. At least one of the voltage drop measuring contacts is attached to each of the busbars and forms a direct electrical contact between the at least one voltage drop measuring contact and the busbar.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a housing assembly with a printed circuit board, and to a method of fixing the printed circuit board in the housing assembly. An assembly comprises a first housing portion having a first retaining element extending upwards from a base of the first housing portion. A second housing portion has a second retaining element that extends downward from a cover of the second housing portion. A printed circuit board is attachable to an open end of the first retaining element. The open end of the first retaining element is adapted to receive a distal end of the second retaining element when the first housing portion engages with the second housing portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a magnet retention member (1) which can be fitted to a wall (28) of a locking sleeve (27) for a gear mechanism, a locking sleeve (27) and a position sensor arrangement (37) for a gear mechanism. In order to be able to produce the position sensor arrangement (37) with the magnet retention member (1) and/or the locking sleeve (27) in the most cost-effective manner possible, there is provision according to the invention for the magnet retention member (1) to have a retention slot (4) for receiving a wall (28) of the locking sleeve (27), which is flanked by retention arms (2, 3) of the magnet retention member (1), the wall (28) having a securing portion (32) for the magnet retention member (1) and the position sensor (37) having a magnet retention member (1) according to the invention and/or a locking sleeve (27) according to the invention.

Abstract: A measuring device for detecting the angular position of a rotatable object. The measuring device has a magnet core, a first coil, second coils, a permanent magnet, and an evaluation circuit. The magnet core has an annular shape and is provided with a gap. The first coil is wound about the magnet core and generates a magnetic flow in the magnet core. The second coils are wound about ends of the first coil proximate the gap. The permanent magnet has a first side moveably attached to the magnet core and a second side for attaching to the rotatable object. The permanent magnet is attached to the magnet core such that a virtual gap is formed in the magnet core during movement thereof. The evaluation circuit detects the position of the permanent magnet based on the voltages induced in the second coils by the magnetic flow.
