  • Patent number: 11981593
    Abstract: A glass tube, such as a glass tube for the production of containers for storage of pharmaceutical compositions, facilitates production of pharmaceutical containers with high quality. The glass tube has a relative cross-sectional area deviation defined as QF max - QF min 1.5 ? ? m . QF max - QF min 1.5 ? ? m is less than k*x+t. QFmax is the highest cross-sectional area and QFmin is the lowest cross-sectional area of at least two cross-sections of the glass tube, the cross-sections being spaced apart from each other along a length of the glass tube, and k is 0.0023 m?1, t is less than 0.15 mm2/m and x is QF max + QF min 2 .

  • Patent number: 11932459
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a closure for a container with a base element directly or indirectly attachable to a container, a flip-top lid attached to the base element by a hinge such that the flip-top lid can be moved between an opened and a closed position, and a tamper evident element for indicating whether the flip-top lid had been opened at least once by a user or not. The flip-top lid comprises a top cover element and an outer side wall extending therefrom. The tamper evident element is linearly movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the flip-top lid further comprises an inner side wall, which extends only around a part of the circumference of the closure, wherein at least parts of the inner side wall and at least parts of the outer side wall together form guidance means for enabling and controlling the linear movement.

  • Publication number: 20230421047
    Abstract: A drive device for a vehicle, including an electric machine having a stator housing, on whose outer circumference a pulse width modulated inverter housing is formed, in which a pulse width modulated inverter having at least one pulse width modulated inverter contact is arranged, which is connected to a stator contact via a contact bridge, an AC filter being assigned to the contact bridge to reduce common mode flows and/or for the purpose of EMC shielding. According to the invention, the AC filter is a component separate from the pulse width modulated inverter and may be mounted in the pulse width modulated inverter housing independently of the pulse width modulated inverter.

  • Publication number: 20220154943
    Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a door for closing a cooking chamber and a guide device to guide a movement of the door into or out of a separate stowing space. The guide device includes a guide unit connected to the door and guided in a slotted guide. The guide unit, when viewed in a height direction, includes a lower guide element and a higher guide element, with the lower guide element moving on a lower guide track without contact with a separate upper guide track, and with the higher guide element moving on the upper guide track without contact with the lower guide track. A damping unit is coupled to the guide unit such that at least a partial closing path is damped as the door is closed between an intermediate position thereof on a closing path of the door and a completely closed end position of the door.

  • Patent number: 8155861
    Abstract: In a method for controlling a fuel supply system of an internal combustion engine with at least one combustion chamber, into which fuel can be injected via a fuel injector, the fuel injector being activated for the implementation of a normal start-up with specified injection parameters when the fuel supply system is filled, the specified injection parameters are modified for the acceleration of an initial start-up of the internal combustion engine when a filling of the fuel supply system with fuel has been implemented to evacuate the air from said fuel supply system.
