Abstract: The present disclosure provides a signal generation device, comprising at least two signal generators, a clock source that is coupled to the at least two signal generators and that is configured to generate a clock signal and provide the clock signal to the at least two signal generators, wherein the signal paths between the clock source and each one of the at least two signal generators are matched at least regarding the signal runtime, and wherein the at least two signal generators are each configured to generate an output signal based on the clock signal. Further, the present disclosure provides a respective measurement device and a respective method.

Abstract: A method of additively manufacturing three-dimensional objects, and/or a method of controlling one or more irradiation parameters of the energy beam system, may include determining an irradiation setting using an irradiation control model and outputting an irradiation control command to an energy beam system based at least in part on the irradiation setting. The irradiation control model may be configured to determine the irradiation setting based at least in part on a power density factor and/or an irradiation vector factor. The irradiation control command may be configured to change one or more irradiation parameters for additively manufacturing a three-dimensional object. An additive manufacturing system may include an energy beam system and a control system that includes an irradiation controller. The irradiation controller may include a control module configured to perform such a method.

Abstract: A vehicle seat may have a seat part and a backrest. The backrest may have a foam component with a cavity for receiving at least part of an airbag device. The foam component may be lined at least to some extent with a reinforcing layer arrangement in the region of the cavity.

Abstract: Method for operating an apparatus (1) for additively manufacturing three-dimensional objects (2) by means of successive layerwise selective irradiation and consolidation of layers of a build material (3) which can be consolidated by means of an energy beam (4), wherein at least one energy beam (4) is guided along at least one track segment (13, 16-18) in the build plane based on irradiation data generated based on a space-filling curve.

Abstract: The invention relates to a head restraint for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, wherein the head restraint has a cushion part facing the head of a seat occupant, a main body, and a comfort adjustment device, wherein in a usage situation of the head restraint the cushion part can be adjusted relative to the main body from a first position that is farther from the head of the seat occupant to a second position that is closer to the head of the occupant by means of the comfort adjustment device, wherein the cushion part can also be adjusted from the second position in the direction of the first position by means of the comfort adjustment device, wherein this requires a front extreme position of the cushion part to be set.

Abstract: An actuating system for a head restraint of a vehicle seat is provided. The head restraint includes a part that can be shifted from a comfort position to a safety position, such as in the event of an accident. Limbs are expandable from an initial position as a consequence of pressure loading to bring about a lengthening which can be transmitted to force transmission means. The limbs are connected to one another and/or to fastening means by joints, each having a first and a second joint pin which can be inserted axially into holes to form the joints.
