Patent number: 12144976Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting a state of wear of a cardiac support system. The method comprises a read-in step and a determination step. During the read-in step, a sensor signal (315) representing an operating state of the cardiac support system is read in. During the determination step, a wear signal (325) is determined using the sensor signal (315) and a comparison rule (320). The wear signal (325) represents the wear condition.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2019Date of Patent: November 19, 2024Assignee: Kardion GmbHInventors: Hardy Baumbach, Julian Kassel, Inga Schellenberg, Ricardo Ehrenpfordt, Marc Schmid, Ahmad Mansour, Martina Budde, Thomas Alexander Schlebusch

Patent number: 11279016Abstract: A system includes first and second power tools that each have a percussion mechanism, a motor, and a transmission. The transmission includes a striking mechanism and is configured to transfer a driving motion of the motor to an insert tool held in a tool holder. The transmission has a guide tube that is identical in some regions along a working axis and accommodates a striker. The guide tube is rotatably coupled to the motor by a first transmission unit. The striker is driven to linearly oscillate by a piston of a second transmission unit. A ratio between a diameter of the tool holder and a diameter of the guide tube is 1.8 times greater in the first power tool than in the second power tool. A striking energy of the second power tool is mechanically reduced compared to a striking energy of the first power tool.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2018Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Andre Kurz, Thomas Brinkmann, Lars Schmid, Pascal Schmitz, Hardy Schmid, Patrick Heinen, Jan Koalick
