Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor device for fastening to human or animal bodies and to a sensor system comprising a plurality of said sensor devices. The sensor devices each comprise a sensor element and a transmission device for the wireless transmission of sensor signals to a receiving device of the sensor system. Thus, universal usability and particularly the suitability to carry out biopotential measurements preferably with automatic detection of configurations is made possible in that the sensor devices each are provided with a connecting device for the electrical connection to a neighboring sensor device and/or a position detection device for detecting the position relative to the neighboring sensor unit.

Abstract: An intermediate product is used in the manufacture of light sources with optical front beam guiding elements to constrict the beam divergence of light emitters. The intermediate product has multiple front beam guiding elements and a support, to which the front beam guiding elements are fixed in a defined order. An optical front beam guiding element is implemented so that it can be attached to each light emitter. The support consists of a stronger, more rigid material, compared with the material of the front beam guiding elements. The result is an intermediate product which allows processing of even expensive materials for front beam guiding elements and, because of its special suitability for automated further processing steps, has cost advantages.

Abstract: The tension of a web in a rotary printing machine is monitored and adjusted. The web runs through at least one printing group in the rotary printing machine. Any change in the stretch of the web during the production run is determined by noting any difference between first and second speeds of the web. The change in stretch is compensated for by a change in the tension of the web before the first printing group.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for adjustment of a belt tension in a rotary press machine, whereby the belt (B) runs through at least one printing group (06, 07, 08, 09) and a change in the stretch of the belt during the production run is determined by means of a change in the difference between a first speed (u 09) and a second speed (u 11). The change in the stretch is compensated by a change n the tension of the belt before the first printing group (06).

Abstract: In a method for the thermal bonding of a base part (3) of a packaging with a cover film (F), especially for the welding or sealing of a base part of a packaging for contact lenses with a cover film, the contact surface of the base part (3) facing the cover film (F) and the corresponding contact surface of the cover film (F) facing the base part are mechanically pressed against one another along a join. While the mechanical pressure is being generated along the join, heat is simultaneously caused to act on the join, so that the contact surfaces of base part (3) and cover film (F) are thermally bonded to one another along the join. For the purpose of generating the mechanical pressure and causing heat to act on the join there is used a contact plate (70) of low heat capacity which, during the thermal bonding, is pressed against the surface of the cover film (F) remote from the contact surface.

Abstract: The steam turbine has an interior chamber through which an action steam can flow. The action steam is condensed in a condenser. The condenser is connected to the interior via a cooling-steam conduit. The cooling-steam conduit can be shut off by means of a shut-off member which opens as a function of the differential steam pressure between the condenser and the interior. The method of cooling the steam turbine is effected by cooling the steam turbine with steam from the condenser in the ventilation mode of the turbine.

Abstract: A tubular conveyor belt and a method for its manufacture, wherein the tubular conveyor belt is composed of a support belt, and wherein the support belt is inseparably connected along both of its longitudinal sides to a drive belt. When constructing the conveyor belt, the drive belts can be placed flat on top of each other, so that the support belt encloses the material being transported. By dividing the tubular conveyor belt into a support belt, on the one hand, and two drive belts at the longitudinal sides, on the other hand, the conveying function is uncoupled from the drive function.
