Abstract: A spectrometer device includes an optical interference filter which is designed to filter specific wavelength ranges of an incident light beam on passage through the optical interference filter. The spectrometer device also includes a detector device which is designed to detect the filtered light beam. Further, the spectrometer device includes a focusing device with a reflective surface. The focusing device is designed to focus the filtered light beam onto the detector device by reflection on the surface.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for the operation of a refrigerator unit and/or a freezer unit having two compartments or more than two compartments which each have at least one opening which is closable by a closure element and through which the compartments can be charged with cold air, with at least one temperature sensor being provided for the indirect or direct detection of the respective actual temperature value, wherein a temperature value (closing value) is defined for a plurality of the compartments or for all of the compartments, wherein the compartment with the lowest difference between the actual temperature value and the closing value (temperature difference) is determined, and wherein the closure element of this compartment is closed until its temperature difference is the same as or larger than the temperature difference of a compartment having a larger temperature difference, preferably having the next larger temperature difference.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a refrigerator and/or freezer with a magnetic cooler, comprising a cold heat exchanger for cooling the cooling and/or freezing space of the appliance and means for detecting a value representative of the temperature of the cold heat exchanger, wherein the appliance includes a control or adjusting unit by means of which the temperature and/or the amount of the heat transfer medium supplied to the cold heat exchanger is adjustable such that in cooling operation the temperature of the cold heat exchanger does not go below 0° C.

Abstract: A refrigerator and freezer unit has a throughgoing inner container, which forms a freezer compartment trough and a chilled goods trough which are integrally connected to one another in a flexurally rigid manner without any joining line or kinking edge, and an evaporator (9) seated on the freezer compartment trough (6). A wound box evaporator which surrounds the freezer compartment trough peripherally on four sides is provided as the evaporator.

Abstract: A cooling appliance is provided with a refrigeration compartment, a cold storage compartment and a freezer compartment, which are separated from one another by partition walls and by at least one door or flap. A cooling air passage is associated with the refrigeration compartment and in its run-in region a cooling fan is arranged which sucks cooling air from the refrigeration compartment and its run-out opens into the cold storage compartment. Sections of a single evaporate are associated with the freezer compartment and the cooling air passage. Openings and/or gaps are provided in and/or between the partition wall and/or door which separate the refrigeration compartment from the cold storage compartment. A control or regulating device controls the running time and/or the speed of the compressor and/or the switched-on time and/or the speed of the cooling fan.

Abstract: In a device for stacking and unstacking containers provided with grasping holes and more particularly for the loading and unloading of palettes with such containers, such as bottle crates and the like, comprising a gripper member having grippers adapted to be brought in and out of engagement with the holes to pick up and deposit such container and which is mounted on a gripping carriage able to be driven on a turnover area for such crates between a pickup site and a depositing site of same, there is the improvement that the grippers for picking up and depositing the containers are arranged, and adapted to be vertically moved, to pickup and deposit the containers while simultaneously performing a pivoting motion in relation to the gripping member which is stationarily arranged in relation to the gripper carriage. This design has the advantage that operation of the grippers on the fly is possible and accordingly the handling rate of the arrangement is enhanced.
