Abstract: A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a valve body and at least one injection opening embodied in it, through which opening, controlled by a valve needle that cooperates with a valve seat embodied in the valve body, fuel can be injected into the combustion chamber of the engine. The valve body comprises a high-alloy hot-work steel, which has been hardened by a case-hardening process.

Abstract: In a capacitive biometric sensor, in particular, a fingerprint sensor, to determine the maximum contrast that can actually be achieved in that application in the gray scale values, in particular, of a fingerprint (dynamic resolution of the sensor), at least one measurement point composed of a dielectric material is integrated above each of the sensor electrodes on a sensor array.

Abstract: The invention relates to fingerprint sensors. A fingerprint sensor has a plurality of sensor electrodes below a surface intended for contacting the underside of a finger. At least one protective electrode is mounted on the surface. The sensor electrodes can have a first AC voltage at a prescribed frequency applied to them. The protective electrode can have a second AC voltage, which is essentially at the prescribed frequency, applied to it.

Abstract: In a method for providing route-specific information in a vehicle, the present location of the vehicle is determined in the vehicle. A plurality of information data is received in the vehicle that in each case associate at least one route situation with locations or location areas. The plurality of information data is related in each case to the determined location of the vehicle, and there are determined the information data that comply with predefined association criteria. A device, a vehicle and a traffic information system comprise corresponding features. An embodiment of the invention improves and extends the technical possibilities of informing a vehicle driver about route situations.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a valve body (1) and at least one injection opening (11) embodied in it, through which opening, controlled by a valve needle (5) that cooperates with a valve seat (9) embodied in the valve body (1), fuel can be injected into the combustion chamber of the engine. The valve body (1) comprises a high-alloy hot-work steel, which has been hardened by a case-hardening process (FIG. 1).

Abstract: A process for producing fiberboard panels includes I. gluing cellulosic fibers with an aqueous glue solution and adjusting the moisture content of the cellulosic fibers and/or the water content of the glue such that the moisture content of the glued cellulosic fibers is not more than 150%; and II. compressing the glued cellulosic fibers produced in step (I) at elevated temperature to fiberboard panels.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for altering the coordinates obtained by satellite navigation in a receiving system which fixes an incorrect position, instead of a true position, within a given three-dimensional zone. In connection with altered coordinates, additional navigational information such as course and speed can also be influenced. Specifically, signals are received from a site and re-emitted in a suitable way so that a navigation receiver determines the position of the receiving site within the three-dimensional zone covered by the emission. This approach is superior to noise-blanketing countermeasures (such as carrier or noise interference) in that precise but untrue coordinates are determined in the navigation receiver, without this incorrectness being immediately recognized.

Abstract: A dividing apparatus for dividing, cutting, or severing a continuously running strip material with the apparatus including an articulated drive for effecting a stroke movement of a cutting unit. The articulated drive is constructed as a quadrangular linkage including a driven crank and a rocker lever pivotally connected to the driven crank through a coupling member. The rocker lever includes an extension portion extending beyond a pivotal connection of the coupling member with the rocker lever. A secondary drive lever is provided with a first end of a link member being pivotally connected with the secondary drive lever and a second end of the link member being pivotally connected with a free end of the extension portion of the rocker lever. A transmission link element is provided for moving the cutting unit with the transmission link element being adjustably connected with the secondary drive lever.
