  • Publication number: 20250003487
    Abstract: A gear-change selector module for a gearshift of a motor vehicle has a movable element and a shift fork having a carrier arm which engages in a recess of the movable element. The recess has two actuating faces which cooperate with carrier faces of the carrier arm. Viewed in a section running through the centre axis of the movable element and the centre axis of the recess, the actuating faces are each convex in a first portion extending from the centre axis in the direction of the outside of the movable element. Furthermore, viewed in a section running through the centre axis of the movable element and the centre axis of the recess, the carrier faces each extend in a first portion from radially outside the movable element up to the centre axis of the movable element, and in a second portion from the centre axis in the direction of the free end of the carrier arm. The carrier faces are convex in the second portion.

  • Publication number: 20240385421
    Abstract: The invention concerns a microscopy method and a microscopy apparatus (100), with an illumination modulator (17) which is configured so as to produce a plurality of points of illumination (8, 11) during a scan of a light strip (3) of the illuminating light (27a) with an illumination modulator (17a), the points being in the form of an asymmetrical 2D Bravais lattice (G4, G5, G6) with a first, longer primitive vector (a) and a second, shorter primitive vector (b) and wherein the projection of the first primitive vector (a) onto the axial direction (3a) of the light strip (3) is longer than the projection of the second primitive vector (b) onto the axial direction (3a) of the light strip (3). In combination with a ROI of a detector synchronised to the illumination line, a more rapid confocal acquisition method is obtained with a better signal-to-noise ratio.

  • Publication number: 20240316966
    Abstract: A printing unit of an inkjet printing machine includes a printing bar with printing heads disposed in a row for printing on a printing substrate, a cleaning device for cleaning the printing heads, a device for individually adjusting the printing heads, at least one respective step-by-step switching mechanism assigned to every printing head, and a common actuator for shifting the step-by-step switching mechanisms of different printing heads. The actuator is movable into positions opposite every step-by-step switching mechanism. The cleaning device is movable and the actuator is disposed on the cleaning device for joint movement so that the actuator can be positioned opposite every step-by-step switching mechanism. It is thus possible to adjust printing heads with great precision while saving time and costs, which is preferably implemented in industrial inkjet printing.
