Abstract: Systems and methods include reception of an instruction to perform a consistency check on compressed column data. In response to the instruction, a compression algorithm applied to uncompressed column data to generate the compressed column data is determined, one or more consistency checks associated with the compression algorithm are determined, wherein a first one or more consistency checks associated with a first compression algorithm are different from a second one or more consistency checks associated with a second compression algorithm, the one or more consistency checks are executed on the compressed column data, and, if the one or more consistency checks are not satisfied, a notification is transmitted to a user.

Abstract: Packaging device (10, 10?, 10?) for packaging at least one object (12, 12?, 12?), that is essentially flat, in particular a valuable technical object, such as a lithium-ion cell, including: a bottom plate (14) having at least one first side rim (42), which is linear in regard to at least a part thereof, and at least one first cover plate (20) having at least one first side rim (46) which is linear in regard to at least one part thereof, which is hingeably linked to the first side rim (42) of the bottom plate (14) such that the cover plate (20) can be hinged between a closed position in which the cover plate at least partially covers the bottom plate, and an open position in which the cover plate is not opposite to the bottom plate, characterized in that the bottom plate (14) or the at least one cover plate (20) comprises on one side a cushioning layer (16, respectively 22), wherein the cushioned side faces the object (12, 12?, 12?) when said object is in the packaging and the at least one cover plate (20) is

Abstract: The invention relates to a galvanic cell (1, 10) which comprises an electrode stack (5). Said stack comprises at least one especially flat anode electrode (2), at least one especially flat cathode electrode (3), and at least one especially flat separator (4) which is interposed between said electrodes (3, 4). The invention is characterized in that the outer contour of the separator (4) has at least one cut-out section (42a, 42b) which is offset inwards with respect to said outer contour.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for coating metal surfaces, containing water-soluble, substantially fully hydrolyzed polysiloxanes with amino-functional groups and vicinal dihydroxyalkyl-functional and/or epoxy-functional groups, a method for the production thereof, the use of said composition for coating metal surfaces, and parts, especially calipers, which are treated with said composition.

Abstract: A device acquires information relating to payment particulars and for transfer of this information to a server center of a banking organization. The device includes an apparatus for reading the payment particulars, a central processing unit to which the reading apparatus is connected, a modem for establishing a telephone link with the server center, and an apparatus for dialing telephone numbers such that the dialing apparatus is associated with the modem.

Abstract: A process of molding a component on a substrate utilizes a substrate having a peripheral flange that projects into a parting line between mold segments defining a mold cavity, wherein the flange has a projecting, continuous circuitous ridge that forms a seal between the substrate and an upper mold segment. The process allows a substantially flash free molded component to be formed directly on a substrate, thus eliminating the need for a separate flash removal step.

Abstract: A passenger compartment isolator system interposed between the engine compartment and passenger compartment of an automotive vehicle includes a dash panel having generally vertical and horizontal portions extending under the leading edge of the vehicle's windshield, and an isolator panel affixed to the horizontal and vertical portions of the dash panel on the engine compartment side of the dash panel.
