Abstract: A sensor for determining a measurand dependent on a concentration of a gaseous analyte in a liquid medium includes: a closed measurement chamber with a gas sensor sensitive to the gaseous analyte for generating a measurement signal which is dependent on the concentration of the gaseous analyte in the measurement chamber; a diffusion membrane impermeable to liquid and gas-permeable to the gaseous analyte, which diffusion membrane closes the measurement chamber and includes a medium-contacting second surface; an evaluation unit for determining the measurand on the basis of the measurement signal; and an ultrasound emission unit designed to introduce ultrasonic waves into the medium such that a mixing of the medium is generated in a volume adjacent the medium-contacting second surface. Further disclosed is a method for determining the measurand dependent on the concentration of the gaseous analyte in the liquid medium using the disclosed sensor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for forecasting calibration spectra including a step of providing a machine learning model trained using historical calibration data corresponding to different gas species at different pressures. The computer-implemented method also includes steps of performing a calibration scan of one gas species at one pressure using an analyzer and generating calibration curves for the analyzer corresponding to one or multiple gas species at multiple pressures using the machine learning model and the calibration scan. Thereafter, a spectrum is obtained using the analyzer, and a concentration measurement is generated using the spectrum and at least one of the calibration curves.

Abstract: A device for detection of a gas or of a multi-component gas mixture comprises: an optical capture unit for capturing a field of view; a first light source configured to emit light having a current wavelength within a first wavelength range, wherein the first light source is arranged such that the light emitted impinges on the field of view; a first optical filter arranged between the optical capture unit and the first light source, wherein the first optical filter enables only those wavelengths of the light in a first filter wavelength range to pass; and a control/evaluation unit configured to determine, based on at least one image recorded by the optical capture unit, the distribution of the gas or the gas mixture in the field of view, the composition of the gas or the gas mixture, and/or a concentration of the components of the gas mixture.

Abstract: A stereoscopic measuring device for determining position information of an event location comprises a background surface and a lighting assembly having a first lighting position and a second lighting position for the illumination of the background surface at different angles. The light beams from the lighting positions passing through an event location are projected at spaced-apart projection locations at a projection location distance. The measuring device also includes an imaging apparatus for imaging the projection locations and an evaluation apparatus for detecting an event, for determining the projection location distance and the position information of the event location based on the projection location distance. The event location is a location at which the medium to be detected appears. Its interaction with the light beams changes a property of the projection locations compared to reference conditions in which the medium to be detected is absent or effective in a different way.

Abstract: An injection device including a housing, a needle guard sleeve displaceable relative to the housing, and a spring coupled to the guard sleeve such that the guard sleeve can be moved by the spring distally from a proximal position to an end position, the spring also being coupled to a forward drive element displaceable relative to the housing in a drive direction wherein the spring is tensioned upon a movement of the forward drive element in the forward drive direction.

Abstract: In an elongated casing, an active agent container connected to an injection needle can be shifted axially by a spring force. Auto-injectors distributed pre-filled and with the springs tensed may be provided with a needle protecting cap to ensure sterility of the needle. When the needle protecting cap is removed as preparation for using the auto-injector, a tensile force can be exerted on the active agent container. Therefore, the active agent container and needle must be prevented from being undesirably pulled forwards. At least one latching tongue prevents the active agent container from being prematurely shifted with respect to the casing, by abutting a flange arranged on a sliding sleeve accommodating the active agent container. When the auto-injector is placed onto the skin, a needle protecting tube is shifted into the casing, forcing the latching tongue away from the flange, thereby freeing the travel path for needle movement.

Abstract: In an elongated casing, an active agent container connected to an injection needle can be shifted axially by a spring force. Auto-injectors which are sold or distributed filled and with the springs tensed have to be provided with a needle protecting cap to ensure the sterility of the injection needle. When such a needle protecting cap is removed as preparation for using the auto-injector, a tensile force can be exerted on the active agent container. Therefore, the active agent container comprising the injection needle must be prevented from being undesirably pulled forwards. At least one latching tongue prevents the active agent container from being prematurely shifted with respect to the casing, by abutting a flange arranged on a sliding sleeve which accommodates the active agent container. When the auto-injector is placed onto a person's skin, a needle protecting tube is shifted into the casing, forcing the latching tongue away from the flange and, thus, freeing the travel path for needle movement.
