  • Patent number: 12365078
    Abstract: A power tool having an air cooling system. A special air guidance system is proposed, the components of the power tool, such as a motor, transmission or electronics of the power tool, can be supplied in a particularly efficient manner with a cooling air flow around them and in this way can be cooled. In this case, the cooling system should, in particular, be independent of any components of the housing of the power tool since the air guidance is advantageously brought about by internal guidance processes, wherein these internal guidance processes preferably take place independently of components of the housing of the power tool. In particular, the housing-independent air cooling of the components of the power tool is achieved by the provision of a fan on a rotor of the motor of the power tool, which is designed, by means of a reduced pressure, to produce a cooling air flow and guide it in a suitable manner through the power tool.

  • Patent number: 12367158
    Abstract: A method for operating integrated circuits of peripherals of a vehicle includes receiving a set of resource requests from one or more applications of the vehicle, wherein a resource request of the set of resource requests at least one resource from one or more peripherals of the set of peripherals of the vehicle. The method also includes storing the set of resource requests, and receiving a resource configuration profile. A setpoint operating state is determined for each peripheral of the set of peripherals of the vehicle depending on the received set of resource requests and the received resource configuration profile. The method further includes controlling the set of peripherals depending on the specified setpoint operating state, such that an actual operating state of a respective peripheral of the set of peripherals corresponds to the specified setpoint operating state of the respective peripheral of the set of peripherals.

  • Patent number: 12365114
    Abstract: A method for operating a system that includes a main machine tool, an auxiliary device, and a transmission device with a first sending and receiving device assigned to the main machine tool and a second sending and receiving device assigned to the auxiliary device includes sending a first signal that represents a connection inquiry from the first sending and receiving device to the second sending and receiving device after an actuation of an input device of the main machine tool by a user. A second signal that represents a connection response from the second sending and receiving device is sent to the first sending and receiving device after an actuation of an actuating device of the auxiliary device by the user. The method further includes activating and/or testing an emergency cutout functionality of the actuating device by the actuation of the actuating device of the auxiliary device by the user.

  • Patent number: 12365415
    Abstract: A handlebar assembly for a vehicle comprising at least one handlebar pipe extending along an axis and having a receiving portion with a circular cross-section. At least one stop means is fixed relative to the receiving portion. At least one shifting means is slidable via an opening therein onto the receiving portion, and can be arranged so as to rest, rotatably about the handlebar axis, against the receiving portion and against the stop means. An adjusting means is arranged on a side of the shifting means remote from the stop means so as to rest against the shifting means, and can be detachably fixed to the handlebar pipe. When detached from the handlebar pipe, the adjusting means releases the shifting means so as to be rotatable about the axis, and when fixed to the handlebar pipe, the adjusting means fixes the shifting means against rotation about the axis.

  • Patent number: 12368605
    Abstract: A system is provided for requesting certificates for a user in a documented manner, comprising at least one registration point, a logging device, and a certification point which are configured to carry out the following steps: receiving in the registration point a certificate request for issuing a certificate to a user, transmitting a logging message which contains information on the certificate request from the registration point to a logging device, receiving a confirmation identifier if the information in the logging device has been successfully stored, forwarding to the certification point an expanded certificate request message which is complemented by the confirmation identifier, checking the confirmation identifier, and processing the expanded certificate request and outputting a certificate response by the certification point only if the check is successfully carried out.

  • Patent number: 12368305
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure include a method for controlling one or more exchanges of energy between a plurality of installations using a control unit, wherein each installation is connected to one or more phases A,B,C of a three-phase power grid. An example method includes using the control unit to determine, within a time range T for each of the phases A,B,C and for each of the installations, associated time-dependent powers to be exchanged by means of an optimization method by extremalizing a target function. The target function includes a phase difference: ? t ? T g ? ( ? "\[LeftBracketingBar]" P t A - P t B ? "\[RightBracketingBar]" + ? "\[LeftBracketingBar]" P t B - P t C ? "\[RightBracketingBar]" + ? "\[LeftBracketingBar]" P t C - P t A ? "\[RightBracketingBar]" ) as a term, where PtA,B,C is in each case the sum of all powers to be exchanged via the respective phase A,B,C at the time t, and g?0 is a weighting factor.

  • Patent number: 12365500
    Abstract: A packaging method is described in which at least one primary packaging (2) is inserted through a closable opening into a secondary packaging (3) after a handling device (20) has been positioned at the closable opening of the secondary packaging (3). The primary packaging (2) is guided by the handling device (20) during its insertion into the opening of the secondary packaging (3), and a target position of the primary packaging (2) is predetermined within the secondary packaging (3). After insertion of the at least one primary packaging (2) into the secondary packaging (3), the opening of the secondary packaging (3) is at least partially closed under the cooperation or action of the handling device (20). Furthermore, a packaging module is described which is designed to perform such a packaging process.

  • Publication number: 20250230929
    Abstract: An example includes a combustion device comprising: a burner; a feed duct; an actuator adjusting a feed of fluid through the feed duct; and a control apparatus programmed to adjust the actuator. The actuator, upon receipt a request signal, checks for a stored rate of change in an associated memory and, if the stored rate of change is present, sends a response signal to the control apparatus. The control apparatus determines a rate of change from the response signal, and generates a first automation signal as a function of the stored rate of change. The first automation signal causes the actuator to change a mechanical variable of the actuator so the mechanical variable changes no faster than the stored rate of change.

  • Publication number: 20250233221
    Abstract: In a process for the direct recycling of electrode scrap which is yielded as production waste in the production of lithium-ion batteries, a process is to be provided which makes it possible to recycle electrode scrap from LIB production by mechanical stress without adversely changing the active materials so that it can be fed back into production. This is achieved in that the mechanical stressing of the electrode scrap includes pre-crushing the electrode scrap into bulk material and mechanical stressing of the pre-crushed electrode scrap in a conditioned atmosphere in a fluidised bed opposed jet mill.

  • Publication number: 20250232671
    Abstract: A method for operating a vehicle, in which at least one sensor signal is detected, which indicates an actuation of an actuation element of an X-by-wire device of the vehicle performed by a user. At least one target value associated with the sensor signal is compared to at least one actual value, which corresponds to an actual behavior of at least one component of the vehicle. Upon presence of a predetermined deviation of the actual value from the target value, at least one measure is taken. The at least one target value and the at least one actual value are transferred to a monitoring device external to the vehicle, which performs the comparison of the actual value to the target value, and which causes at least one device internal to vehicle to take the at least one measure upon presence of the deviation. Furthermore, the invention relates to a vehicle.
