  • Patent number: 11794258
    Abstract: In order to mill, drill, saw or the like in the offshore sector, subsea processing machines are used which comprise a tool holder with a change hub for receiving at least one rotary tool, such as for instance a milling cutter, saw, drill or the like. The tool holder preferably has a carrier body for receiving the tool hub, wherein the latter comprises a hub flange for receiving tools. The preferably centric hub ring of the change hub can be arranged on the carrier body of the tool holder and can be connected to the tool holder in such a manner as to be able to be detached and clamped by means of at least one locking apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20230330854
    Abstract: Provided is a technique for generating a movement plan rapidly and at a relatively light memory load, even for a complicated task, while guaranteeing executability in a real environment. A movement planning device according to one aspect of the present invention uses a symbolic planner to generate an abstract action sequence including one or more abstract actions that are arranged in the order of execution. The movement planning device: uses a motion planner to generate, from each abstract action and in the order of execution, a sequence of movements; and determines whether the generated sequence of movements can be physically executed by a robot device in the real environment.

  • Publication number: 20220066074
    Abstract: A retroreflector includes an arrangement of triples, each having three side surfaces, which are disposed in the manner of a cube corner and stand approximately perpendicular on one another. The retroreflector can be produced from a carrier material by injection molding. An optical silicone resin is used as the carrier material. The retroreflector is based on triple mirrors that are both easily unmolded from a die and easily applied to curved surfaces even after unmolding or are usable for reflection of ultraviolet light.

  • Publication number: 20220048309
    Abstract: A retroreflective element, for example a retroreflector or a retroreflective film, includes a regular arrangement of multiple reflective triples, each having three side surfaces that form an angle between 88° and 92°, preferably between 89° 50? and 90° 10? relative to one another, and particularly preferably stand perpendicularly on one another. At least one selected triple in the arrangement has a security element having at least one diffractive structure on at least one first side surface. A modulation depth of the security element is selected in such a manner that the security element cannot be perceived when the retroreflective element is illuminated at an illumination angle <10°.

  • Publication number: 20210025479
    Abstract: A planetary gearbox includes a sun gear having one tooth, a ring gear, planet gears, and a planet carrier on which the pant gears are rotatably arranged. Each of the sun gear, the planet gears, and the ring gear have evoloid toothing. The planetary gearbox enables high load capacity at high transmission ratios by using three circulating planetary gears in the ring gear, which is frame-fixed. The planet gears do not hit each other at a high transmission ration of i=24:1 because of defined addendum modification coefficients and addendum coefficients of the individual gears of the planetary gearbox.

  • Patent number: 10809425
    Abstract: A retroreflector element is divided into multiple reflection regions. The triples of a first reflection region are designed for the purpose of reflecting incident light beams parallel to the preferred direction, at a narrow angle distribution. The side surfaces of the triples of the first reflection region preferably stand precisely perpendicular on one another. The second reflection region is designed to reflect another part of the incident light falling onto the retroreflection element, independent of the preferred direction, at an observation angle between 0° and 2°. The second reflection region ensures that the retroreflection element remains visible at an observation angle up to at least 2°, even perpendicular to the preferred direction.

  • Patent number: 10761249
    Abstract: A retroreflector includes a regular arrangement of multiple reflective triples of the first type, each having three side surfaces of the first type, which triples stand approximately perpendicular to one another, in pairs, and define a cube corner having an apex, at which the planes spanned by the three side surfaces of the first type intersect. A number of selected triples of the first type each have a recess, in particular a cube-shaped recess in the surface of the related cube corner and/or an elevation, in particular a cube-shaped elevation projecting from the surface of the related cube corner, which forms a triple of the second type, wherein the triples of the second type each have at least three side surfaces of the second type, which stand approximately perpendicular to one another, in pairs.

  • Publication number: 20200031186
    Abstract: A link for a wheel suspension of a vehicle may include a middle section and two end sections. The end sections may have connecting points for receiving linking and/or joining elements. The object of providing a link that has sufficient stability and rigidity throughout a service life of that link and that can be produced cost-effectively is accomplished at least in part and at least in some cases by way of the middle section of the link being formed from at least two shells. The at least two shells may in some cases have substantially U-shaped cross sections, and the at least two shells may be joined together by integral bonding, force locking, and/or form fitting in a butt joint or a lap joint.

  • Patent number: 10546081
    Abstract: A hardware model of a memory comprises: first circuitry configured to supply a memory status value for the memory which is changed upon a full-memory erase operation; second circuitry configured to supply a sector status value for each memory sector of the memory which is changed to a value equal to the memory status value when a write operation is performed on the each memory sector of the memory; and third circuitry configured to supply, when a read operation is performed on a memory sector of the memory, a value stored in the memory sector as output of the read operation if the sector status value for the memory sector is equal to the memory status value or a predefined value as the output of the read operation in other situations.

  • Patent number: 7717575
    Abstract: The invention relates to a triple prism which reflects light, a reflector and to a method for recognizing an object. A reflective photoelectric barrier sends light to a reflector. The reflector does not answer with the form of the obtained light signal, but with a double signal which projects two light centers. The reflector can also be embodied such that it answers with a different geometric figure than the light projection. The reflector with a modified signal enables a sensor system to be produced and which can verify, by evaluating the light signal captured by the reflector, whether the captured signal of the reflector or another reflection.
