Abstract: A radar system for motor vehicles. The radar system has multiple transceiver units, which are situated on separate installation supports for the installation in different locations in the motor vehicle and are connected to one another by a synchronization network. Each of the transceiver units has a scanning module for scanning radar signals received on a plurality of channels in the form of a time signals. Each installation support has a raw-data interface for the transmission of the time signal of the transceiver unit to a central evaluation instance. The central evaluation instance is configured to jointly evaluate the time signals from the plurality of transceiver units.

Abstract: Probe systems configured to test a device under test and methods of operating the probe systems are disclosed herein.

The probe systems also include a probe assembly and an optical microscope. The probe systems further include an electromagnet and an electronically controlled positioning assembly. The electronically controlled positioning assembly includes a two-dimensional positioning stage, which is configured to selectively position a positioned assembly along a first two-dimensional positioning axis and also along a second two-dimensional positioning axis.

Abstract: A profile system for a sanitary system, such as a floor-level shower, includes at least one profile element and at least one flat and flexible sealing element. The sealing element has a mounting area which, in a non-installed state, is fixed to the profile element by a mounting element. The sealing element includes at least one region overlapping the profile element, the overlapping region being adapted to fix the profile element in its mounting position.

Abstract: A carrier body assembly for forming part or all of a shower floor includes a rigid carrier body having a bearing surface for sanitary surface material such as tile and a sealing membrane that overlies the top or bottom surface of the carrier body but is attached to only a portion of the top or bottom surface. The unattached portion of the membrane is folded away from the carrier body to enable trimming of the carrier body to fit without damaging the membrane. After installation of the carrier body the membrane overlies the adjacent shower structure to form a watertight, water-impermeable connection between the carrier body and the adjacent shower structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a carrier body (1) for sanitary surface material, having a bearing surface for the sanitary surface material, having a floor surface for arranging on an underlying surface, having a through-opening which runs approximately in the vertical direction of the horizontal carrier body, and forms lateral end surfaces, and having a sealing element, which covers over at least one of the surfaces at least in part, wherein the sealing element on the at least one surface is fixed only to a first sub-region (11) and loosely covers over at least a further, second sub-region (12) of the surface. The invention also relates to a method of adapting such a carrier body to the desired floor dimensions of a sanitary shower facility, and to the use of this carrier body for a sanitary cubicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a frameless, self-supporting tub partition (1) comprising at least one wall element (3) of synthetic glass, characterized in that the tub partition (1) comprises at least one supplemental element (5) that may be detachably affixed to the wall element (3), whereby the supplemental element (5) is configured to protect and/or to adapt and/or to mark the at least one wall element (3) to local installation dimensions during installation of the tub partition (1) by means of a processing device. The invention also relates to a method to install such a tub partition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a flow channel of a heat exchanger with two parallel heat transfer areas (F1, F2) that are arranged at a distance corresponding to a channel height H. Each heat transfer area (F1, F2) is provided with a structure that is formed by a plurality of structural elements which are placed next to each other in rows running perpendicular to the direction of flow P and extend into the flow channel. Each structural element has a width B, a length L, a height h, a flow-off angle a, and an overlap U while being provided with a longitudinal axis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (10), in particular, for exhaust coolers on internal combustion engines. The aim of the invention is to provide a separation of the carrier medium flow into two partial flows as leak free as possible, by suitable embodiment of the baffle plate (40). A heat exchanger (10), as used, in particular, as exhaust gas cooler for internal combustion engines, comprises a heat exchanger channel (14) and a bypass channel (11), whereby a switching flap (20) is arranged upstream of the heat exchanger (10) in the flow channel (25), which divides the incoming carrier medium into the heat exchanger channel (14) and the bypass channel (11). A baffle plate (40) is provided to maintain the separation between the partial flow through the bypass channel (11) and the partial flow through the heat exchanger channel (14), which, according to the invention, extends from the switching flap (20) to the beginning of the bypass channel (11).

Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust-gas thermal conductor, comprising a tube array with exhaust gas flowing therethrough and cooling medium flowing around the same. The tube array is welded to a tube base, connected to the housing. As a result of varying temperature effects on the tubes and on the housing whilst operating the exhaust gas thermal conductor, thermal stresses, as a result of differing expansion of the tubes and the housing, occur. According to the invention, said stresses may be avoided, whereby slots are arranged in the housing sleeve, which are externally sealed by means of a bellows.
