  • Publication number: 20240152212
    Abstract: The present invention relates to wearable device (1) adapted to detect contacts of fingers (F) on a surface (S), and to identify the responsible finger. It comprises move sensors adapted to collect the vibrations resulting from the contact of the fingers on a surface. It comprises a memory comprising reference vibration profiles (T), corresponding to the impact of at least one finger (F) of a user (U) to a surface (S). A computing unit (32) is configured allows to identify the finger responsible for the impact sensed by the move sensors (10, 10a, 10b). The invention further relates to a manufacturing process of such a device and to a method of sensing the contact of a finger on a surface.

  • Publication number: 20240075643
    Abstract: A pipe cutting device includes a cutting element, a counter-holder, and a C-shaped working head. The counter-holder is formed by the working head and the cutting element protrudes into a C-opening. The working head merges into a foot part and the cutting element is accommodated in a displacement part. The displacement part is movably arranged with the cutting element in an offset part and/or the counter-holder has rollers, and each two rollers are mounted in pairs on a rocker part. A further pipe cutting device has an offset part and a counter-holder which are formed on a C-shaped working head, wherein the working head merges into a foot part which can also be used as a handle area, and the offset part can be offset relative to the foot part in order to change an opening width of the working head. In addition, the offset part has a cutting element.

  • Patent number: 9272611
    Abstract: A sealing strand for adhesively bonding to a vehicle body, in particular to a body flange protruding from a vehicle body, uses a device for attaching the sealing strand to the vehicle body, in particular to the body flange, prior to the adhesive bonding. In particular, the device for attaching the sealing strand in a starting position is used for the adhesive bonding with the aid of an application device which exerts contact pressure.

  • Patent number: 7698056
    Abstract: In the case of a method for the input of input data into a vehicle navigation device, by which input data are supplied to the vehicle navigation device by way of a receive interface and the input data are subjected to a plausibility check, in the event of a negative plausibility check, a prompt is emitted for correcting the input data. The input data can be corrected by a user via an operating device, and the corrected input data are imported into the vehicle navigation device.

  • Patent number: 7046271
    Abstract: A method for three-dimensional display in which a plurality of individual image elements ?ij are made visible simultaneously in a raster of columns i and lines j, wherein the image elements ?ij reproduce partial information from a plurality of views Ak (k1 . . . n) of a scene/object, and adjacent image elements ?ij radiate light of different wavelengths or wavelength regions is provided. In a method of the type described above, wavelength-dependent propagation directions are predetermined for the light radiated from the image elements ?ij. The propagation directions within an observation space in which an observer is situated intersect in a plurality of intersection points which correspond to observation positions. From each observation position, one eye of an observer perceives predominantly partial information of a first selection and the other eye perceives predominantly partial information of a second selection from views Ak (k=1 . . . n).
