Abstract: A handling device (100) for automatically exchanging component feeders (390) at a pick and place station (4000) for assembling component carriers with electronic components is described. The handling device (100) comprises (a) a chassis (110); (b) a drive (120) with a stationary drive component (122) attached to the chassis (110) and a movable drive component (126) which can be spatially positioned along a y-direction; (c) a first coupling device (130a) which is attached to the movable drive component (126) and which has a first coupling element (234) and a first actuator (232); (d) a second coupling device (130b), which is also attached to the movable drive component (126) and which comprises a second coupling element (234) and a second actuator (232); and (e) a control device (102), which is configured to individually actuate the first actuator (232) and to individually actuate the second actuator (232).

Abstract: A device to detect medical status of a person, including a robot manipulator to receive and handle effectors, each effector enabling a selected activity; a first unit to determine a current state ZRM(t) of the robot manipulator and a current state of an effector; a second unit to determine a current position LKT,AKTk(t) of a person's body part related to the selected activity in a working region of the robot manipulator; a third unit to determine a wrench KW(t) acting on the robot manipulator; a fourth unit to specify target data and permissible deviations for the selected activity; and a control unit to control the robot manipulator upon specification of the selected activity as a function of: ZRM(t), LKT,AKTk(t), KW(t), target data, and permissible deviations, such that when a permissible deviation is exceeded, the robot manipulator and the effector are placed into a safe state based on the selected activity.

Abstract: A heat exchanger, such as an evaporator, a condenser, or the like, for a refrigerator, such as a chill cabinet, a freezer cabinet or the like, includes at least one surface with which a thermal energy storage medium is in at least as far as possible heat-conducting contact, and bag-like reception containers to be connected to the evaporator.
