Abstract: A drilling tool for producing a bore with a cylindrical inner wall can be rotatable in a rotary movement with a predetermined rotational direction (VD) about a tool axis (A) extending through the drilling tool, and at the same time is movable in an axial forward movement (VB) in a forward direction axially to the tool axis. The drilling tool comprises at least one drilling area (3) arranged in a forwardly located region of the drilling tool at a forward or free end, but preferably not having a thread forming region. The drilling area has a number n of drilling edges which are arranged offset to each other in the rotational direction, and at least one chip divider is arranged on at least one or each of the n drill cutting edges, where the chip divider forms an interruption of the respective drill cutting edge.

Abstract: A scanning unit for determining a relative angular position of an angular scale that is rotatable about an axis relative to the scanning unit includes a circuit board having a first surface and a second surface and evaluation electronics. A detector assembly is disposed in a manner that enables scanning of the angular scale located opposite the first surface of the circuit board. A housing body includes: slots extending circumferentially about the axis; lands in each case extending axially between two of the slots such that the housing body is axially flexible but torsionally and radially rigid; and a bottom disposed axially between the slots and the circuit board.

Abstract: A scanning unit for determining a relative angular position of an angular scale that is rotatable about an axis relative to the scanning unit includes a circuit board and evaluation electronics. A detector assembly is disposed in a manner that enables scanning of the angular scale. A contact carrier encloses electrical contacts for creating a plug-and-socket connection. The contact carrier has an outer wall and is mounted on the circuit board such that the electrical contacts extend in a direction having an axial component. A housing body is provided with an opening having an inner wall. A first elastic element is disposed under radial preload such that the contact carrier is centered with respect to the inner wall of the opening. The circuit board is torsionally rigidly attached to the housing body such that the circuit board is radially spaced therefrom by a first gap.

Abstract: A device for adjusting an air flow exiting a vent includes a closing device to modify a strength of the air flow, and a louver mounted for pivoting about a pivot axis for modifying the flow direction. Alignment of the louver and operation of the closing device are realized via an operating element arranged on the louver. The operating element is made in two parts and includes a first operating part coupled in fixed rotative engagement to the louver, and a second operating part which is coupled with the first operating part and which can be coupled with an air flap of the closing device and can be lifted off the first operating part. The second operating part is rotatably mounted in a raised first position and coupled with the air flap so as to effect a pivoting of the air flap, when the second operating part is rotated.
