Abstract: In a device and a method for transmitting data between a position-measuring device and sequential electronics via a data-transmission channel, the position-measuring device includes an interface unit and a processing unit, the interface unit being connected first of all to the data-transmission channel, and secondly, to the processing unit for the purpose of an internal data exchange with the aid of a request channel and a response channel. The interface unit includes a command interpreter by which, using conversion rules, commands which arrive via the data-transmission channel are convertible into internal requests and are able to be fed via the request channel to the processing unit, and response data which arrives from the processing unit via the response channel is convertible into output data. The interface unit further includes a rules memory for storing the conversion rules, which is at least partially modifiable.

Abstract: A method for controlling a function of a motor vehicle (18) employs a use module (4) at a storage location (6, 8) for a device outside the motor vehicle (18). The use module (4) and the storage location (6, 8) have recognition interfaces (10, 12, 14). The motor vehicle (18) has a first communication module (22), and a second communication module (16) is provided for the use module (4) and for the storage location (6, 8). The recognition interfaces make contact when the use module (4) is at the storage location (6, 8). If a storage location (28, 32) change is registered for the use module (4), a message with an instruction to perform the function of the motor vehicle (18) is transferred from the second communication module (16) for the use module (4) and the storage location (6, 8) to the first communication module (22) of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: In a method for positioning machine axes in machine tools, a numerical control converts setpoint positions of a tool, predefined in workpiece coordinates, into setpoint positions of machine axes based on a kinematic chain defined by a kinematic table. In this context, transformations of the coordinates are indicated in the kinematic table in a plurality of entries describing the kinematics of the machine tool, by specifying an axial direction and an associated transformation amount, respectively, per entry. For a machine axis having an error in a direction other than the respective axial direction, error transformation amounts dependent on the axial position are entered into the kinematic table.

Abstract: An impact element (10) for a motor vehicle (70) has a flat basic body (12) formed from a rigid material and has connecting sections (16) on one side (50) to fix the basic body (12) to a supporting frame (72) of the motor vehicle (70). The basic body (12) has a gas-tight chamber (24) in which at least one opening (26) is formed to fill the chamber (24) with compressed air.

Abstract: A fuel tank is produced together with an underride protector in a blow-molding tool by a blow-molding process. The underride protector is held on the fuel tank by a form-locking connection or by an integral connection. Therefore the outer underride protector is connected to the fuel tank in a simple production procedure.

Abstract: A body structure of a motor vehicle, having a side part, having a vehicle roof, having a fastening device which acts on an underside of the vehicle roof, and having a roof rail which is mounted on an upper side of the vehicle roof via a plurality of mounting elements, a plurality of hollow rivets extending through the fastening device, which is configured as a reinforcing element for the vehicle roof, and the vehicle roof, and the roof rail being fastened to the upper side of the vehicle roof via the mounting elements in such a way that a threaded section of each mounting element extends through in each case one of the hollow rivets and protrudes out of the respective hollow rivet, a nut acting on that threaded section of the respective mounting element which protrudes out of the hollow rivet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical, cosmetic or dermo-cosmetic composition that comprises DAO, for use in the prevention or treatment of diseases or pathological conditions associated with high levels of histamine in blood which involve an increase in pain, preferably fibromyalgia, characterised in that the application of the composition is topical.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition that comprises a compound of formula (I) as active pharmaceutical ingredient: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isomer, prodrug or solvate thereof; and at least a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, wherein the active pharmaceutical ingredient is present in an amount of at least 80% of the total dry weight of the composition.

Abstract: A tool for machining work pieces includes a base body and at least first and second operating slides, slidable with respect to the base body. The first operating slide carries a machining element. At least one balancing pendulum can be pivoted with respect to the base body. A first coupling device connects the first operating slide and the second operating slide and is pivotably hinged to the first operating slide and the second operating slide. A second coupling device connects the first coupling device and the balancing pendulum. The second coupling device is pivotably hinged to the first coupling device at a hinge point. The second coupling device is pivotably mounted around a rotation axis of the tool. Displacement of the first operating slide resultantly displaces the second operating slide in an opposite direction relative to the rotation axis of the tool.

Abstract: Provided are processes for preparing Ticagrelor and its intermediates that are useful in the processes. Also provided are salts of Ticagrelor, their processes and solid dispersion of Ticagrelor having Ticagrelor in amorphous form.

Abstract: A fiber composite component, in particular a torsion-bar stabilizer for a motor vehicle, having an elongate main body which has a plurality of tubular layers which are each formed from fibrous threads and casting resin, wherein the tubular layers are arranged in one another in the radial direction of the main body, and wherein the fibrous threads f the different layers are each oriented at different angles relative to a longitudinal direction of the main body, wherein the fibrous threads are braided together in order to form the different layers.

Abstract: A length measuring instrument including a hollow profile section extending in a longitudinal direction and an end piece fixed on the hollow profile section for closure of the hollow profile section on an end of the hollow profile section. A scale is disposed inside the hollow profile section, wherein the scale includes a measurement graduation which can be scanned by a scanning unit that is movable in the longitudinal direction relative to the hollow profile section. The length measuring instrument includes a sealing element on the end piece for sealing off the hollow profile section, wherein the sealing element has a cross-section that is at least extensively equivalent to an inside diameter of the hollow profile section. In addition, the sealing element rests sealingly so that a circumferential surface of the sealing element is on an inner face of the hollow profile section.

Abstract: A rear spoiler arrangement (2) for a vehicle has at least one rear spoiler (6), that can be moved in the vertical direction of the vehicle between a rest position and a functional position. The rear spoiler arrangement (2) is placed on a rear spoiler support (5) and substantially follows the shape profile in the rear area of the vehicle body when the rear spoiler arrangement (2) is in the rest position. Rear light units (4) of the vehicle are integrated into lateral end regions (3) of the rear spoiler support (5) and/or of the rear spoiler (6).
