Second and third connecting elements are provided respectively at distal end regions of the arms. The second and third connecting elements are connected to the respective arms and function for the connection of the transverse strut. The arms and the connecting elements are formed as extruded profiles and/or formed sheet metal parts.

Abstract: The use of eprotirome in the prevention and/or treatment of hair disorders is herein disclosed.

Abstract: A device for interferometrically determining the distance between two plates disposed substantially in parallel, includes a light source, beam-splitter element(s), reflector element(s), deflection elements, retroreflectors, and a detection unit. A beam of rays emitted by the light source falls on the first plate and splits into a reflected reference beam of rays and a transmitted measuring beam of rays. The measuring beam strikes a reflector on the second plate and undergoes a first reflection back toward the first plate. The reference beam traverses a first deflection element, and the measuring beam traverses a second deflection element. Both beams pass through a retroreflector. The reference beam is reflected at the first plate, and the measuring beam undergoes a second reflection at a reflector of the second plate, so that both beams propagate collinearly interferingly toward the detection unit, where a plurality of phase-shifted distance signals are generated.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric machine supplied with air for cooling purposes. The air is heated during operation of the electric machine and is removed in the form of exhaust air. The electric machine is equipped with a fan wheel (70) which is coupled to a rotor of the electric machine. To improve and to simplify the operation of the electric machine, the fan wheel (70) is designed as a precise steel part with a sensor device (71) for detecting a rotational speed of the fan wheel (50; 70) and thereby detecting a rotational speed of the rotor.

Abstract: An electric machine is supplied with air for cooling purposes. The electric machine has a housing (40) with cooling ducts for cooling air. To improve and/or simplify the cooling of the electric machine, air-distributing ducts (71) are formed in the housing (40) and emerge from a common air supply duct (70).

Abstract: A motor vehicle has a structure (1) for accommodating an electrical energy storage means and having power electronics (2) for an electric machine of the motor vehicle. In such a motor vehicle, there is provision according to the invention that the power electronics (2) are integrated into the structure (1). Such a vehicle is defined by a small installation space requirement, a low weight and a low degree of expenditure on assembly.

Abstract: A test method for testing elongated objects comprising moving an elongated object in a feed-through direction through a feed-through coil arrangement having at least one feed-through coil, wherein the feed-through coil arrangement is secured to be transversely movable with respect to the feed-through direction of the object and is guided on the object passing through such that the feed-through coil arrangement can follow transverse movements of the object occurring transversely with respect to the feed-through direction of the object.

Abstract: A probe head includes a housing having a first housing unit to be affixed on a machine, and a second housing unit on which a stylus is supported so as to be deflectable. The second housing unit is movably supported on the first housing unit so as to allow a deflection. The probe head furthermore has a switching unit, which includes a first contact element and a second contact element, the contact elements being arranged such that when the second housing unit is deflected relative to the first housing unit, the contact elements are able to be brought into mutual contact at different points as a function of the direction of deflection, whereby an electrical switching signal is able to be triggered by this contact.

Abstract: A medicament-dispensing system includes a cartridge for housing and actuating an accordion-like vial-dispenser for dispensing a calibrated amount of medicament by means of a single actuation motion which sequentially loads the vial-dispenser and dispenses the loaded medicament. The vial-dispenser has a front bellows portion, a rear bellows portion, an internal piston mechanism, a medicament storage chamber and a dosage cavity. The cartridge has a trigger mechanism which acts in concert with a notched lever and a wedge-shaped arm internally located in the cartridge to sequentially load the dosage cavity with medicament and discharge it. Depression of the trigger mechanism simultaneously extends, by means of the notched lever, the front bellows portion and compresses the rear bellows portion to load the dosage cavity with medicament.
