Abstract: The invention relates to a joint which can be subjected to the temperature influences of an external medium (20) and joins an especially ceramic component (2) to an especially metallic component (1). Said joint consists of a first adhesive joint (14) between the metallic component and the ceramic component, and a second adhesive joint (22), the adhesive (16) of the second joint having a higher elasticity than that (10) of the first adhesive joint (14), and the second joint being arranged in such a way that it prevents direct contact between the first adhesive joint (14) and an external medium (20). The inventive joint can preferably be used, for example, preferably in a sensor module of a measuring appliance which can be introduced into a medium to be analyzed.

Abstract: Described is a measuring device, in particular for measuring the pH value in foodstuffs. The measuring device comprises an extended first electrode for plunging into a material to be measured and a sheath which at least partially surrounds the first electrode. The first electrode is pivotably mounted in order to prevent breakage as a result of transversal loads exerted perpendicularly to the axial direction of the electrode.

Abstract: A valve block includes at least a first connection and a second connection. Both connections are connected to each other inside the valve block to temporarily change flow paths in a coolant device and/or to fill the coolant device and/or empty the coolant device. The valve block may be made of a coolant and pressure-resistant plastic and may be manufactured by an injection molding method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a measuring device having a penetrating electrode. Said elongated electrode of the measuring device is movably mounted in axial direction thereof. In case of a load or a shock, it can absorb said load to a given degree in the housing of said measuring device. Said shock-absorbing characteristic makes it possible to largely prevent breaking of the first electrode that is preferably configured in the form of a glass electrode. The invention also relates to a measuring device, to a method for the production and the application of said measuring device.

Abstract: A device for detecting a measured value includes a measuring transducer and a channel sensor, which is implemented as an essentially cylindrical tube having a first end and a second end and may be mounted in a wall when the measuring transducer is situated on the channel sensor. A detachable fastening device is included for fastening the measuring transducer to the channel sensor and may be disposed between the measuring transducer and the channel sensor. The channel sensor may be connected to the measuring transducer via a cable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a radiometer comprising an IR detector, a lens and a light source. The lens is arranged with respect to the IR detector such that it focuses IR radiation from a measuring surface to the detector. The light source emits visible light for marking the measuring surface. The beam path of the visible light extends through the lens. Moreover, the invention relates to a sighting device for a radiometer for visibly marking a measuring surface the temperature of which is measured by the radiometer. The sighting device comprises a light source for emitting a visible light beam, which marks the measuring surface. A piezoactuator controls the direction of the light beam. As an alternative to the piezoactuator, the light beam may be guided at a constant angular velocity, and a stepwise change of the direction of the light beam may be accomplished by a sectorized mirror. The invention finally relates to corresponding methods.

Abstract: The invention relates to a portable refractometer comprising a depression (7) for samples, located on an insertion tip (11) in such a way that once the insertion tip (11) has penetrated a liquid or a fruit, a sufficient quantity of the sample liquid remains in the depression (7) for samples, thus wetting a measuring surface (4) that is delimited in said depression by a transparent body. The refractive index of the wetting liquid can be determined by measuring the intensity of an optical beam that is reflected by the measuring surface (4).
