  • Publication number: 20180000319
    Abstract: An apparatus for video endoscopy, in particular for industrial video endoscopy, has a device part which has a housing and an electronics component arrangement which is arranged in the housing. The electronics component arrangement is arranged within a sealed-off region in the housing. A heat sink is arranged in the housing, the said heat sink being thermally coupled to the electronics component arrangement in order to absorb heat from the electronics component arrangement. A fan for generating an air flow of ambient air is arranged in the housing, the said air flow flowing out of the housing along the heat sink in order to discharge the heat from the heat sink, wherein the air flow does not come into contact with the electronics component arrangement.

  • Patent number: 8608505
    Abstract: An electrical cable for power and data transmission between two electronic devices, consisting of a first flexible wire, which includes at least four power transmission lines and at least four data lines as well as a plug according to the USB standard and a multi-polar plug, and of an additional flexible wire, which includes at least two data lines and at least two power transmission lines as well as a USB plug. The first flexible wire and the additional flexible wire together form a Y-shaped cable and make possible a power and a data transmission between two electronic devices simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 8387342
    Abstract: The invention relates to a picking line for inserting products into a packaging container, having a conveyor belt for the delivery and the transport of products in a transport direction, and at least one picker equipped with a position image processing system for determining the position of the products on the conveyor belt. A quality image processing system is disposed in the transport direction upstream of the at least one picker for checking the products passing the quality image processing system on the conveyor belt in the transport direction for predetermined quality features, and for associating quality information to be transmitted to a picker adjacent downstream of the quality image processing system in the transport direction, serving as a control command for grasping or not grasping the products.

  • Patent number: 8181551
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for displacing and positioning an object in a space, having at least three actuating arms that can pivot about a transmission axis. Each arm is connected to a motor unit/transmission unit. A carrier element is provided in order to arrange at least one gripping element for gripping the object. Each actuating arm, on the free ends thereof, has a first articulated axis that is parallel to the transmission axis with first articulated parts arranged at a distance from each other, of a first ball joint. The carrier element has a second articulated axis associated with each actuating arm with first articulated parts that are arranged at a distance in relation to each other, of a second ball joint. The first articulated axis is connected to the second articulated axis by a pair of connecting bars which include terminal second articulated parts.
