Abstract: A controller for a common-rail injection system includes a plurality of fuel injectors, a common fuel supply line for the fuel injectors, a high-pressure pump for supplying the common fuel supply line with fuel, and a pressure sensor for determining the pressure in the common fuel supply line. A determination unit evaluates data of the pressure sensor and, from the pressure drop caused by an injection in the common fuel supply line, determines the fuel quantity actually injected during this injection or a value derived therefrom. An adaption unit uses the results of the determination unit in order to adapt the actuation of the fuel injectors. The determination unit carries out at least one test injection, and the actually injected fuel quantity or a value derived therefrom is effected by way of the test injection or injections.

Abstract: A controller for an injection system having a plurality of fuel injectors includes a map controller. From a desired injection value, the map controller generates a control value for actuating a fuel injector with reference to a specified map. A determination unit determines the actual injection value for at least one injection made, and an adaption unit uses results from the determination unit in order to adapt actuation of the fuel injectors. The adaption unit determines an adaption value for injector actuation from the at least one actual injection value. In engine operation, the adaption unit receives the control values generated by the map controller as input. From this input, the adaption unit generates adapted actuation values as output by applying a mathematical function to the control values generated by the map controller. The at least one adaption value is included in the first mathematical function as parameter.

Abstract: A spatially-adjustable patient positioning surface (1) of an operating table, for example, is connected to at least two hydraulic cylinders (2, 3, 3′, 24) which are separately controllable by two control elements. The control elements are combined in at least one rotary distributor (26, 27) that is adjustable by means of one common adjustment arrangement (25).
