Abstract: The invention describes an apparatus for separating a two-ply film web which can first be wound up at a winding point, wherein the two plies of the film web are first joined to one another via two side edges, wherein the apparatus comprises as features at least one and preferably two lengthwise slitting units, with which a lengthwise slit can be made into a first of the two plies of the two-ply film web, which are at a distance from side edges, so that the one ply is narrower than the two-ply film web, and at least one pressing element, which can be moved in the orthogonal direction of the plane defined by the two-ply film web, wherein the two plies of the two-ply film web can be spaced apart from one another, and which can be moved in the plane of the two-ply film web, but perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, so that the pressing element can be guided between the two plies of the two-ply film web.

Abstract: An electrosurgical system includes: an electrosurgical supply device, and an electrosurgical instrument, wherein the electrosurgical instrument includes a memory element which can be read out by the electrosurgical supply device when the electrosurgical instrument is connected to the electrosurgical supply device, and configuration data is stored on the memory element, which can be evaluated by the electrosurgical supply device in order to configure operating parameters which are compatible with the electrosurgical instrument. The electrosurgical system is characterized in that the configuration data is arranged in a flexible data structure which allows the memory element to simultaneously store multiple sets of configuration data which can be read and evaluated by different types of electrosurgical supply devices.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel cell vehicle (200), in which the driver has more influence on the consumption and the dynamic of the vehicle (200). This is achieved by the fuel cell vehicle (200) comprising at least one sensor for detecting a first driver input and a control unit (60). The control unit (60) is configured to operate the fuel cell vehicle (200) in one of a plurality of operating modes depending on the first driver input, wherein a power consumption PAC of the air-conditioning system (70), an operating range of the fuel cell stack (10), and a transfer function for determining the power demand PEM from the second driver input are varied depending on the selected operating mode. It is provided that the driver has at least five different operating modes available, which differ in particular with respect to the available driving dynamic, the fuel consumption, and the adjustable comfort.

Abstract: A length-adjustable adapter device (100) for connecting a plastics melt filtering device (200) to a pipeline (300), having at least a housing connection element (10) which has at least one inner flow duct (13) in a pipe extension (12) which is provided with an external thread (14), an adjusting ring element (20) having an internal thread (24) for receiving the external thread (14) of the pipe extension (12) and a line connection element (30) for connecting to the pipeline (300) with a line ring flange (31) and with a pipe extension (32) having an inner flow duct (33). The line ring flange (31) is rotatable in a receiving groove (23) of the adjusting ring element (20) and is fixed in a form-fitting manner against axially acting forces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hand-held electrically driven domestic appliance and to a corresponding method for controlling the hand-held electrically driven domestic appliance. The domestic appliance includes an electric motor for driving the domestic appliance; a control unit for controlling the motor; a first actuation element for outputting a first control signal to the control unit in order to select a motor control mode; and a second actuation element for outputting a second control signal to the control unit. The control unit is designed to select a motor actuation mode from the specified motor actuation modes on the basis of the first control signal, and the control unit is designed to determine a motor actuation signal to be output to the motor on the basis of the selected motor actuation mode and the second control signal.
