Abstract: A retainer for accommodating an electronic component, in particular a sensor, including a main body or a main body element, which comes in contact with the electronic component, and is composed of a main body material. The retainer further includes a transition layer, which is connected to the main body and a thermoplastic connecting layer or a first connecting element, which is connected to the transition layer. The thermoplastic connecting layer is designed such that the thermoplastic connecting layer can be brought into a reversible mechanical/physical connection to a contact element or a second connecting element by a preceding partial melting process.

Abstract: A conveyor belt scraper, in particular a segment body for a conveyor belt scraper. The segment body for a conveyor belt scraper includes a plate-shaped mounting element, which can be connected to a flat bearing profile of a segment carrier, a carrier section, wherein the carrier section is formed on a first end area of the mounting element by means of a supporting area and an underside of the carrier section forms a hollow body together with an opposite section of the mounting element so that the carrier section is resiliently supported on the mounting element by means of the supporting area in order to form a first damping mechanism; and wherein the carrier section has at least one insertion pocket on the underside of the carrier section, which insertion pocket is suitable for accommodating a spring element in order to form a second damping mechanism.
