Abstract: The disclosure relates to a handrail disinfecting device for a handrail of a passenger transport installation. The handrail disinfecting device has a plurality of light-emitting diodes that can emit germicidal electromagnetic radiation in the region of their light cone. A pass-through segment of the handrail disinfecting device is divided into at least two sectors and has a carrier having planes that are arranged in the sectors. The light-emitting diodes are arranged on the carrier such that they are oriented according to the planes. In one of the sectors, there are two planes that are arranged in parallel with the longitudinal extension of the pass-through segment and so as to be mutually inclined at an angle of 100° to 160°.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to monitoring a state of a physical passenger transport system. In an aspect, monitoring includes use of an updated digital double dataset that reproduces characterizing properties of components of the physical passenger transport system in an actual configuration of the passenger transport system after assembly and installation thereof in a building, in a machine-processable manner. At least one detection device is arranged in the physical passenger transport system, which detects a load profile which is transmitted to the updated digital double dataset. A set of rules is used to convert the load profile into modified characterizing properties of virtual components. Through the monitoring, changes and change trends on the components are tracked and evaluated using the updated digital double dataset by calculations and/or by static and dynamic simulations.

Abstract: A production method for an insertion end, especially for an insertion end of a drilling, chiseling or boring tool, including the following steps: a longitudinal groove is formed in the outer surface of a preferably cylindrical end piece of a blank, whereby the longitudinal groove acquires an open end section on a front face of the end piece. The outer surface of the end piece is surrounded by a die tool that engages into the longitudinal groove outside of its open end section. The open end section is closed in that the surrounded end piece is compressed by means of a stamp acting on the front face. The segmented, multi-component die tool preferably lies flush against the outer surface of the end piece outside of the longitudinal grooves.
