Abstract: A drive system as disclosed includes an input shaft, an output shaft, and at least two coupling elements respectively coupled to the input shaft and the output shaft. In order to absorb assembly and manufacturing tolerances with respect to the shafts, the coupling elements and their attachment to the shafts and thereby prevent jamming of the drive system, at least one coupling element has an elastically deformable section, the elastically deformable section having a different material or a different cross-section than an adjacent section of the coupling element.

Abstract: A prefilled syringe and a method of filling a syringe with a pegfilgrastim solution to provide a target extracted volume of pegfilgrastim solution from the syringe are described. A method includes selecting the target extracted volume of pegfilgrastim solution, determining an estimated drug transfer loss, determining an estimated syringe dead volume, filling the syringe with a volume of pegfilgrastim solution comprising at least the target extracted volume plus the estimated drug transfer loss plus the estimated syringe dead volume.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cover for a container for receiving enteral nutrition solutions, having a thread which can be brought into engagement with a mating thread of a container for receiving an enteral nutrition solution in order to cover an opening in the container for receiving the enteral nutrition solution, and having a connection piece for the connection of a hose line. An opening device having a first part connected to the cover in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner and having a second part which is permanently connected to the first part is arranged on an inner side of the cover. In a starting state of the opening device, the second part of the opening device is fixed to the first part of the opening device by a fixing element and, in an opening state of the device, is movable relative to the first part of the opening device.

Abstract: Disclosed is a container comprising an opening to bring an enteral nutrient solution into or out of the container, a base which lies opposite the opening in a direction of longitudinal extent of the container for depositing of the container upright on an underlying surface, a hanging element arranged on the base in a first position extending substantially along the base, or in a second position where it protrudes at an angle from a plane defined by the base, and a hinge device which connects the hanging element to the base at a first end of the hanging element, to transfer the hanging element from the first into the second position. A receiving region for the hanging element is formed in the base. The hanging element can be releasably fixed in the first position using a connecting device. The hanging element is fixed movably within the first position.

Abstract: An ampoule for a medical liquid comprises an ampoule body for accommodating a medical liquid and a connection part for connecting a removal device to the ampoule, which connection part extends in a longitudinal extension direction and adjoins the ampoule body. The connection part and the ampoule body are formed as one piece and the connection part has a threaded segment having at least two thread turns arranged thereon, which are axially offset from each other in the longitudinal extension direction. The ampoule enables simple attachment of a removal device, creates a tight transition between a connection part and the removal device, is simple and economical to produce, and can provide a defined attachment state for the removal device on the ampoule.

Abstract: A rock feeder deflector device for a rock feeder used in underground mining applications. The rock feeder has a material transport portion for transporting rock material to a conveyor. The rock feeder deflector device comprises a mounting portion configured to be connected to the rock feeder; a guiding plate movably connected to the mounting portion; and a moving mechanism arranged between the mounting portion and the guiding plate. The moving mechanism is configured to move the guiding plate relative to the mounting portion between an operative position configured to guide rock material to the material transport portion and an inoperative position.

Abstract: A method of generating reference pressures by a pressure generator, which generates a reference pressure according to a mass applied to an end face of a piston using a mobile data processor including the steps of: selecting the standard instrument out of a plurality of standard instruments which are measured as regards characteristic properties and the characteristic properties of which are stored in the form of reference data at a central storage location; connecting the mobile data processor to the central storage location and automatically downloading the reference data of the selected standard instrument and storing the same in the mobile data processor; and for processing the reference data, each applied mass and the local environmental data in the measuring environment into the pressure values assigned to the masses applied in each case as the reference pressures of the standard instrument.

Abstract: A closure cap for a container filled with a medical fluid and having a mouthpiece sealed by a pierceable membrane includes a cap-shaped closure body and a drinking stub with an opening for drinking purposes. The drinking stub is pivotable between a first position, in which the drinking stub bears against the closure body, and a second position, in which the drinking stub protrudes from the closure body, such that, when the drinking stub is pivoted, the membrane of the container is pierced and a connection is produced between the opening in the drinking stub and the container interior.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hydrodynamic component comprising at least two elements which form a working chamber therebetween and which comprises a primary wheel and a secondary wheel. A working medium which can be introduced into the working chamber allows torque to be transmitted between said elements. At least one of the elements is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on a shaft. The hydrodynamic component comprises a device for detecting a variable characterising at least directly the transmitted torque and/or the rotation of the shaft. According to the invention, the shaft is at least designed to have at least two sections which are at an axial distance from each other and which are made of a ferromagnetic material and is provided with a magnetic field which is rotationally stable with the respective section. Magnetic field sensors are arranged in areas corresponding to the at least two sections.
