Abstract: The invention relates to a rotor or stator for an electric machine, in particular a spoke rotor which is arranged concentrically about a rotational axis and comprises a permanent magnet which is arranged in a recess of the rotor or stator. A spring strand for fixing the permanent magnet in the recess is provided in the rotor or stator, said spring strand comprising a holding ring and fixing means which are arranged on the holding ring. Said holding ring is arranged concentric about the rotational axis, and the fixing means extend in the axial direction of the rotor or stator into the recess. The holding ring is annular and the fixing means lie at least partially directly on the permanent magnets. The invention also relates to an electric machine comprising the claimed rotor. The invention further relates to a hand-held machine comprising a motor having a rotor or stator of the above-mentioned type.

Abstract: People mover (2) comprising an endless tread belt (6) formed from several tread elements (4) connected to one another, which is driven by a drive unit about a first and second reversal point (22), and a side skirt (24) moved along with tread belt (6), the side skirt (24) comprising flange elements (28) joined to the tread element (4) and bridge elements (30) connected movably relative to flange elements (28). A sensor (38) is arranged adjacent to the side skirt (24), the sensor (38) having a limited detection range perpendicular to the circulation direction of side skirt (24), and a plurality of marking elements are arranged in a line on side skirt (24) along the circulating direction having a limited width perpendicular to the circulating direction.
