Abstract: A gear arrangement is for a handheld electrical apparatus, in particular a hedge trimmer. The gear arrangement includes a housing having a first housing section, a second housing section, and a re-lubrication opening for introducing lubricant into the housing. A planetary gear, which defines a central axis, is disposed in the first housing section, for reducing the gear ratio of a driving movement provided by a drive motor of the electrical apparatus. An eccentric gear unit is disposed in the second housing section for converting a rotational movement, of which the gear ratio has been reduced by the planetary gear, into an oscillation driving movement. The first housing section is assigned an inflow opening for introducing lubricant into the first housing section, and a drain outlet for discharging lubricant from the first housing section. A handheld electrical apparatus includes a gear arrangement.

Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a boot lid and a receiving device. The receiving device is configured to receive an electric miniature vehicle. The receiving device has a frame, a flexible bag, and a cover that is openable, where the flexible bag and the frame are sealable by the cover from above. The receiving device in a mounted state is arrangeable behind a back seat of the motor vehicle such that the cover in a closed state forms a rear parcel shelf. The receiving device has an electric port where via the electric port the electric miniature vehicle is attachable to an on-board power supply of the motor vehicle for charging a battery of the electric miniature vehicle.

Abstract: An attachment device, in particular a milling machine and/or a mulcher, for use with a carrier vehicle, includes one or more functional units which supplies energy by way of the carrier vehicle, in order to achieve rapid and/or simple initial start-up. The attachment device has one or more control units which, in at least one operating state, automatically controls and/or regulates one or more limit values of an operating parameter of the functional unit.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided that permit efficient and selective separation of liquid biological specimens into at least two constituent components to facilitate subsequent quantitative and qualitative analysis on at least one analyte of interest in at least one of the components. The devices generally include one or more sample deposition regions supported on a base. Each sample deposition region includes a separation membrane for separating the liquid biological specimen into two different fractions. The first fraction is trapped by the separation membrane while the second fraction passes through the separation membrane and into a respective collection membrane. The separation and collection membranes are easily separable from the devices and can be utilized for further processing and analysis.
