Patent number: 11725762Abstract: A connecting device for media lines including a coupling element, an insert part and a fastening element. The coupling element has a connection opening and a fluid channel; the insert part can be inserted into the connection opening; and the insert part can be fastened to the coupling element by the fastening element. The fastening element also has at least one control surface. When the insert part is inserted into the connection opening under the action of an installation force, the insert part acts upon the control surface in such a way that the fastening element is moved against a restoring force. If the installation force is sufficient, the insert part slides past the control surface and the fastening element interlockingly locks the insertion part. If the installation force is not sufficient, the fastening element presses the insert part back out of the connection opening.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2019Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: VOSS Automotive GmbHInventors: Markus Waschkewitz, Harald Hagen, Adrian Klehr, Frank Engelhard, Jochem-Andreas Hess, Evelin Rosowski, Ihab Hatoum, Markus Hasberg, Michael Brombach

Publication number: 20210199219Abstract: A plug connector arrangement for media lines including a connecting body and a lug component. The connecting body features a fluid channel and at least one receiving opening for at least partial accommodating of the lug component in communication with the fluid channel. The connecting body and the lug component being connected to each other by a connecting element that establishes a first positive-locking snap-in connection with the connecting body and a second positive-locking snap-in connection with the lug component. Also provided is a method for connecting media lines for production of such a plug connector arrangement.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2017Publication date: July 1, 2021Inventors: Christian ZWILLUS, Michael BROMBACH, Adrian KLEHR, Reiner MITTERER

Patent number: 9870203Abstract: A system includes a first non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and a second non-transitory computer-readable storage medium each having stored thereon computer executable program code which, when executed on a computer system, causes the computer system to perform steps. The steps associated with the first non-transitory computer readable medium include generating a Service Adaptation Definition Language (SADL) definition for each of a plurality of business entity types, the SADL definition being based on an intermediate representation of each of the plurality of business entities, and publishing the SADL definition as a service of a SADL engine. The steps associated with the second non-transitory computer-readable storage include discovering the SADL definition and displaying, on a user interface, a representation of the SADL definition, the user interface configured to enable selection of two or more business entity types each associated with a different model layer framework.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2014Date of Patent: January 16, 2018Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Marcel Hermanns, Cristina Buchholz, Ivo Vollrath, Klaus Rehberger, Michael Brombach, Oswald Gschnitzer, Faiz Mohamed Ibrahim

Publication number: 20170330118Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, can be implemented to perform actions for assessing a capability of an organization. The actions can include receiving multiple normalization factors associated with raw consumer data related to the capability of the organization, generating normalized consumer data related to the capability of the organization based on the multiple normalization factors associated with the raw consumer data, generating a graph illustrating the normalized consumer data with respect to a performance of a market including the organization and one or more competitors of the organization such that the graph provides an assessment of the capability of the organization, and outputting the graph to a processing device for display of the graph to effect an organizational decision based on the assessment.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2016Publication date: November 16, 2017Inventors: Michael Brombach, Leslie Basham, Michael Ostergard, Kristin Ficery

Patent number: 9098546Abstract: A new query language can be embedded in a business application programming language (e.g., the ABAP language). A query language consistent with implementations of the current subject matter can be based on a graph data-model of connected business objects (BO) or other data objects and can be designed as an efficient query language embedded into the business application programming language runtime, thereby allowing expression of business logic in a declarative manner.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2012Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Andreas Gruenhagen, Christian Stork, Kerstin Hoeft, Reiner Singer, Michael Brombach, Marcel Hermanns

Patent number: 8874601Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to computing, and in particular, to a systems and methods for a querying a database. Certain embodiments implement a model-driven database query (“the SADL query”) facilitating a design-time tool that allows a developer to create the query based upon existing Business Objects (BOs) and their associations. This SADL query leverages mapping between business-layer entities and database-layer entities, such mapping being derived from association metadata already extant in the business model used to create the Business Objects. In certain embodiments, query views may be based upon associations present within the business layer, rather than upon database-level entities (such as joins or restriction rules) that are typically relied upon in conventional query creation. Embodiments of the present invention may thus align query creation more closely with the structure of the business layer, and may also render query design agnostic relative to the identity of the underlying database.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2010Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Marcel Hermanns, Jens Weiler, Michael Brombach, Monika Kaiser, Jan Teichmann, Thomas Gauweiler, Daniel Hutzel

Patent number: 8793272Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for providing value help. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may include receiving at least one field of a row of a list presented at a user interface; transforming, at a service component rather than the user interface, the at least one field into a query; and sending the transformed query to a database. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2010Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Jan Teichmann, Jens Weiler, Michael Brombach, Marcel Hermanns, Thomas Gauweiler, Ivo Vollrath
