Patent number: 10775830Abstract: An operator control apparatus, in particular a remote control apparatus is provided, comprising a splashproof housing and at least one operator control device which comprises an input assembly having a pushbutton head manually displaceable along a longitudinal axis, a rotary member rotatable about an axis of rotation and a coupling mechanism via which a linear movement of the pushbutton head is translatable into a rotary movement of the rotary member, wherein a signal transmitter is held to the rotary member in a rotationally fixed manner, which signal transmitter interacts with a sensor element arranged in the housing. In order to improve the operator control apparatus in such a manner that the input assembly may be mounted with ease and, if required, replaced with ease, the input assembly is insertable in a mounting direction into an exterior recess of the housing and is removable from the recess when required.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: NBB Holding AGInventors: Thomas Burchard, Hans-Peter Bauer

Patent number: 9347974Abstract: The application relates to a method for determining beam parameters of a charge carrier beam, a measuring device, and a charge carrier beam device. The charge carrier beam (4) from a charge carrier beam device (1) is guided, by means of a beam deflection unit (3), over a slit aperture arrangement which is provided in an aperture device (7) and which has one or more slit apertures (8). Measurement plane coordinates of the beam components that penetrate the slit aperture arrangement are determined. On the basis of the measurement plane coordinates, the aperture device automatically moves in such a way that a measuring aperture (9) arranged in the aperture device moves over a predefined measurement reference point. The beam parameter is measured by the measuring aperture. In a measuring device (5) suitable for carrying out said method, the slit aperture arrangement has at least two non-parallel slit aperture sections (12, 13, 15, 16) which can be part of a single continuous slit aperture.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2013Date of Patent: May 24, 2016Assignees: RWTH AACHEN KOERPERSCHAFT DES OEFFENTLICHEN RECHTS, AIXACCT SYSTEMS GmbHInventors: Uwe Reisgen, Jens De Vries, Alexander Backhaus, Hans-Peter Bauer, Sebastian Ufer, Bernd Reichenberg, Thorsten Schmitz-Kempen
