  • Publication number: 20240151957
    Abstract: A microscopy system and a method for operating a microscopy system are provided. The microscopy system includes a tracking camera configured to detect a pose of an object, a tracking illumination device, and a controller configured to control the tracking illumination device and/or the tracking camera. Illumination information is determinable by evaluating an image representation from the tracking camera and/or pose information of the object is determinable relative to at least one illumination device and/or a working distance is determinable, with the illumination by the tracking illumination device and/or an image capture by the at least one tracking camera being able to be set based on the illumination information and/or based on the pose information of the object and/or based on the working distance.

  • Publication number: 20240077714
    Abstract: A microscopy system includes a tracking camera for pose detection of a marker, a device configured to determine a working distance, a movable optical element, the pose of which can be changed to set a capture region of the tracking camera and/or at least two tracking illumination devices, at least one optical element for beam guidance of the radiation generated by the tracking illumination devices, and a controller configured to control the movable optical element and/or the tracking illumination devices, in which the pose of the movable optical element can be set based on the working distance and/or in which an operating mode and/or an illumination region of the tracking illumination devices can be set based on the working distance. In addition, a method for operating a microscopy system is provided.

  • Patent number: 10343822
    Abstract: Crown caps comprising jag-like or tooth-like shaped ends, wherein one or a plurality of cavities is formed between an outer container surface and the shaped ends, and wherein in the region of the shaped ends a deformable sealing material is provided which closes the cavities at least to the extent of the edge of the crown cap that points to the base of the container, with the sealing material forming a ring-like or hoop-like element separate from the crown cap and which interacts with the crown cap in such a way that when the shaped ends are deformed for the container closure they press or sink into the sealing material.

  • Patent number: 9499353
    Abstract: A conveyor device having a rotor and container carriers that suspend containers around the rotor includes a container support to support the sides of the suspended containers. The container support has an outer container guide with a height-adjustable outer container support surface that defines a tapered surface surrounding a machine axis about which the rotor rotates. The outer container support surface supports the containers on a radially outward portion of their surface and an inner container support surface supports the containers on a radially inward position of their lateral surface. The two support surfaces define a receptacle that receives the container's base. The receptacles width decreases as a function of distance from the container carriers. The inner container support surface is height-adjustable for adapting the container support device to different container base diameters.
