Abstract: A line feedthrough for guiding at least one line through a component, contains a cladding tube, a fastening element, and at least one sealing element which is in the form of a flexible hose body and arranged within the cladding tube. The hose body is connected, in a first axial end region, to the fastening element. It is possible to displace said hose body between a closed position, in which the hose body at least partially closes a passage through the hose body, and an open position, in which a passage through the hose body is at least partially unblocked. A spring device is provided that acts on the fastening element, which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction (L) relative to the cladding tube, with a force that presses the hose body toward a closed position.

Abstract: System and method for adjusting side mirrors capture, by a primary camera, a facial image of a driver; estimate a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; map the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror based on a look up table; and rotate the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a set of three parameters of 3D line of locations where the driver can observe an optimal view behind the vehicle, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D line of locations.

Abstract: A method for adjusting a side mirror of a vehicle includes capturing, by a primary camera provided in front of a driver of the vehicle, a facial image of the driver; estimating a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; mapping the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror based on a lookup table; and rotating the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw angles. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each row containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a 3D eye location, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D eye location.

Abstract: A line feedthrough for guiding at least one line through a component, contains a cladding tube, at least one element which is mounted within the cladding tube and can rotate relative to the cladding tube, and a sealing element which is in the form of a flexible hose body and arranged within the cladding tube and the element. The hose body is connected, in an axial end region, to the element and can be displaced by rotational movement between a closed position and an open position. A guide element is provided which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction relative to the cladding tube, and which cooperates with a guide track of the element. The guide track of the element is in a spiral shape, such that a displacement of the guide element in the longitudinal direction leads to a rotation of the element relative to the cladding tube.

Abstract: A thread-forming screw has a shank which, in a front region of the shank, has a tip for insertion into a bore in a substrate, and in a rear region of the shank, has a drive for transmitting a torque to the shank. The shank has a spiral-shaped groove and a thread spiral which is inserted into the spiral-shaped groove. The spiral-shaped groove has a front flank and a rear flank disposed opposite the front flank. The front flank, at least regionally, has a different part flank angle than the rear flank.

Abstract: A method for installing an anchor for the fastening of an attachment part to a base part includes arranging an anchor bolt of the anchor in a hole which is provided in the base part and in a through hole provided in the attachment part. A damper sleeve is arranged on the anchor bolt such that the damper sleeve surrounds the anchor bolt. The damper sleeve is adhesively bonded to the attachment part by adhesive.

Abstract: A setting tool for an expansion anchor, which has an expansion sleeve and an expansion element disposed in the expansion sleeve, includes an internal drive shaft for axially driving forward the expansion element in the expansion sleeve and an external drive shaft surrounding the internal drive shaft for rotational driving and axially driving forward the expansion sleeve into a substrate. The internal drive shaft has an insertion end in a rear area for inserting into a hammer drill. The external drive shaft is disposed in a torque-free manner and is slidable axially on the internal drive shaft. The setting tool further includes a releasable locking device, where an axial sliding of the internal drive shaft relative to the external drive shaft is limitable by the releasable locking device in a forward direction for transferring forward directed axial forces from the internal drive shaft to the external drive shaft.

Abstract: An injector for filling an annular space formed around an anchor bolt includes a piston disk which has a through-opening for the anchor bolt and a quantity of curable compound mounted upstream of the piston disk, where the piston disk forms a piston for forcing at least some of the quantity of curable compound into the annular space.

Abstract: A screw, especially a concrete screw, having a shank with a front end that is to be inserted into a hole drilled into a substrate, and a rear end as well as at least one thread arranged on the shank. It is provided that the screw has a squeezing piston that is situated in front of the front end of the shank, whereby a compound reservoir is provided between the squeezing piston and the shank.
