Abstract: A torque sensor includes a disk comprising a magnetostrictive, magnetically biased, or magnetizable material, and a magnetic field sensor assembly. A torque acting about an axis of rotation of the disk can be applied to the disk and the magnetostrictive material is configured to generate a magnetic field outside the disk that changes dependent on the effective torque. The magnetic field sensor assembly is configured to output a signal based on the magnetic field generated by the magnetostrictive material, and the torque sensor is configured to determine a value of the acting torque based on the signal that is output.

Abstract: A coil arrangement has a first cylindrical coil having a first winding direction and a second cylindrical coil having a second winding direction.

Mutually adjacent ends of the first and second cylindrical coils are electrically connected to each other, and the second winding direction is opposed to the first winding direction.

Abstract: A drive bearing includes an element rotatably mounted and which comprises magnetized magnetostrictive material. A torque can be applied to the element and the magnetostrictive magnetized material is formed to generate at a first position outside the element a magnetic field as a function of the torque applied. A measuring circuit comprises a first magnetic field sensor for detecting a total magnetic field at the first position, the total magnetic field comprising the magnetic field generated by the magnetostrictive magnetized material and an external magnetic field. The first magnetic field sensor outputs a first signal as a function of the total magnetic field detected. A second magnetic field sensor detects the external magnetic field at a second position and outputs a second signal as a function of the external magnetic field detected. The measuring circuit determines a value of the torque applied using the first and the second signals.

Abstract: A determination of a spatial position of a transmitter which emits a wireless signal is provided. A receiver which moves relative to the transmitter receives the wireless signal and analyses a Doppler shift in the received signal. Information is generated for specifying possible spatial positions of the transmitter based on a point of time when a sign in the Doppler shift changes. In this way, a very simple and efficient determination of possible locations of the transmitter can be achieved.

Abstract: In order to carry out a handover procedure, in which a radio link between a mobile station and a radio communications system, which is set up via a first transmitting/receiving unit, is switched to a second transmitting/receiving unit, the mobile station sends a handover signaling message to the second transmitting/receiving unit in order to set up a connection to the second transmitting/receiving unit. The handover signaling message contains as the handover procedure identifier a code word, whose value matches a handover code which is reserved for handover procedures in the radio communications system, and on the basis of which further transmitting/receiving units in the radio communications system which receive the handover signaling message identify it as a handover signaling message.

Abstract: In a plastic shell ski (1) with a body formed by hollow sections and a lower part with a running surface, and top (10) is connected to the lower part by substantially vertical webs (3, 5) running in the ski longitudinal direction, hollow sections (2, 4) are formed by at least two U sections open on the same side and variable in height, whose webs (3, 5) are connected to connecting sections (9), running in the longitudinal direction, for the connection with a substantially plate-shaped part (8) by welding and/or gluing.

Abstract: A ski with a base portion having a running surface of varying width and a hollow ski body. The height of the ski varies over the length of the ski. The ski body is hollow with lateral edges extending parallel to each other over the length of the ski. The width of the ski body is constant and is less than, or equal to, the narrowest width of the base portion.

Abstract: A ski with a core and at least one upper and one lower surface layer. Grooves for receiving parts of a ski binding are recessed in the upper side of the core. The receiving parts each consist of a fixed holding part and an elastic sleeve surrounding the holding part. A spacer element rests on the receiving part, which spacer element is used as support for the base plate of a ski binding. In order to facilitate the mounting of the ski binding, each holding part has at least one upwardly bent section, with the upwardly bent section extending in the installed state of the receiving part at least to the underside of the upper surface layer of the ski.

Abstract: In a ski (1) with a damping element (5) for damping shocks that act transversely to the longitudinal direction of the ski in the area of the ski binding, with a carrier body (3) for at least one layer of damping material (5), in particular elastomer damping material, which is arranged between the carrier body (3) and the ski (1) the carrier body (3) is connected directly to the upper chord (7) of the ski in a middle area (4) that is located between the front and rear ends, as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the ski, and is connected to the upper side of the ski (1) in front of and behind the middle area (4) through an interposed layer of damping material (5).

Abstract: In a ski that has integrated elements for the attachment for components of the binding system, the ski is bonded rigidly to an essentially plate-shaped carrier body that extends in the longitudinal direction of the ski, in an area that lies between the ends that face in the longitudinal direction of the ski. Outside the area that is bonded rigidly to the ski, the carrier body incorporates guide rails or grooves that extend in the longitudinal direction of the ski and are used for the attachment of the components of the bindig system, and the ends of the carrier body that face in the longitudinal direction of the ski are arranged at a distance from the upper side of the upper chord of the ski. It is preferred that outside the area that is bonded rigidly to the ski the carrier body is bonded rigidly to the ski or to the upper chord of the ski through interposed damping material.
