  • Publication number: 20240124226
    Abstract: The invention relates to a storage arrangement for storing movers of a conveying device formed in magnetic levitation technology, comprising a storage device having a plurality of storage levels arranged one above the other in the height direction, each having a plurality of storage locations, and a transfer device that is designed to transfer at least one of the movers from a work surface of the conveying device to at least one of the storage locations or from at least one of the storage locations to the work surface of the conveying device, wherein the storage arrangement is made of a non-magnetizable material. According to the invention, the storage locations of the storage device are fixedly arranged in the height direction. Furthermore, the transfer device comprises a transfer unit that can be adjusted in the height direction.

  • Patent number: 10773909
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus (10) for feeding a plurality of flat elements (12) lying flat on one another, in particular carton blanks, to a packaging apparatus (V), comprising: a first feed section (18) having a conveying device (46), of which the conveying surface (22a1) intended to support the flat elements (12) is formed from a material which, with respect to the interaction with the flat elements (12), has a predetermined coefficient of adhesive friction, and a second feed section (20), which falls toward the packaging apparatus (V), wherein the inclination of the first feed section (18) and the inclination of the second feed section (20) toward the packaging apparatus (V) are different from each other.

  • Patent number: 6631286
    Abstract: A safety housing, into which an infrared laser light source is integrated together with the CCD camera, forms a compact unit for the determination of tissue perfusion. Rays from the infrared laser light source radiate the area of operation and indocyanin green, previously injected intravenously into the patient, is excited to fluorescence by the radiation, which is detected by the CCD camera.
