  • Publication number: 20240014808
    Abstract: A circuit assembly and a method for controlling operation states The circuit can be shifted by idle signals from the active operation state into the idle state and can be shifted by wake-up signals in an edge-triggered manner from the idle state into the active operation state if the wake-up signal executes a change in potential from a non-activation potential to an activation potential. The wake-up signals are supplied to a wake-up signal input of the circuit with the interposition of a masking circuit, which passes through the wake-up signals to the wake-up signal input in the idle state of the circuit and, in the active operation state of the circuit, applies to the wake-up signal input a predetermined electric masking potential, from which a change in potential towards the activation potential of the wake-up signal shifts the circuit from the idle state into the active operation state.

  • Patent number: 10247244
    Abstract: A bearing assembly includes a housing having a flange at a first axial side and a bearing attachment section at a second axial side and a rolling-element bearing having inner and outer rings and a plurality of rolling elements. The rings are sealed on first and second axial sides by first and second seal disks, and the outer ring is pivotably mounted in the attachment section of the housing and the inner ring is configured to be mounted on a shaft. The assembly also includes a seal assembly configured to form a seal between the flange and the shaft at the first axial side of the housing, an end cover, an O-ring compressed between the second axial side of the housing and the end cover and at least one seal barrier between the seal assembly and the first seal disk and/or between the cover and the second seal disk.
