  • Patent number: 10298816
    Abstract: A method of assembling an apparatus for use in performing pattern recognition, the method involves placing a module and a housing relative to one another, the housing being supported relative to an object having an optical marker, and the module comprising a camera for generating a camera output indicative of a scene in the field-of-view of the camera, using the camera output to determine the position of the marker in the field-of-view of the camera, moving the module and the housing relative to one another until the marker is at a predetermined location in the field-of-view of the camera and then fixing the position of the module relative to the housing.

  • Patent number: 10016562
    Abstract: The present invention relates to method of manufacturing a fluid guiding assembly for a drug delivery device and to a respective fluid guiding assembly. Said method comprising the steps of: providing a first member having at least one recess in a first surface portion, at least partially filling the recess with a joining component at least partially protruding from the first surface portion of the first member, arranging a second member having a second surface portion adjacent to the first member such that first and second surface portions thereof face towards each other to form an interface area between the first and the second members, wherein the joining component comprises a material different to the material of the first and/or second member wherein at least one channel structure extending along the interface area is formed by at least one deepening of the first member and/or of the second member, selectively providing thermal energy to the joining component to bond together first and second members.

  • Publication number: 20170015518
    Abstract: A buckle folding unit for sheets includes a buckle plate, three rollers that form a transport roller pair and a folding roller pair, and a blown-air nozzle for guiding the sheets. The at least one blown-air nozzle emits a blown-air jet in a direction radial to a common roller of the transport roller pair and the folding roller pair. The air jet places the sheet against the surface of the common roller and guides it into a nip of the folding roller pair in a defined way, advantageously resulting in an improved quality of the fold. A sheet-fed folding machine including a buckle folding unit is also provided.
