Abstract: A tribosystem for a piston unit includes the piston unit having a piston and at least one rolling body mounted rotatably in a rolling-body receptacle of the piston. The rolling-body receptacle is substantially comprised of a bearing material having a PEEK/PTFE matrix. A surface of the at least one rolling body is polished.

Abstract: An installation support of a loading floor of a passenger car is distinguished in that it is a component which is different from the bodyshell of the passenger car and is provided in order to define fitting positions of side wall panels and of the loading floor relative to one another. Furthermore, a welded assemblage of a passenger car body has at least one rear longitudinal member. The welded assemblage is provided in order to be screwed to such an installation support by a screw connection. The screw connection has cage nuts which are provided for the screw connection and are guided moveably in the longitudinal member transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal member.

Abstract: A help system, an automation device with such a help system and a method for providing help data are disclosed. The help system includes a first offline help facility which is installed as part of an application on a data processing device, the first help facility providing a user with help data based upon context data defined by the user, the help data being stored in the first help facility and thus on the data processing device. A second online help facility is provided which is accessed by the data processing device via the internet such that the context data defined by the user in relation to the first help facility is automatically adopted in the second help facility as context data, the second help facility providing the user with additional help data based on this context data, the help data being stored in the second help facility.

Abstract: A device for coupling beam guides of optical systems for unidirectional or bidirectional transmission of beams via a beam transition between the optical systems is provided, the device having a connecting device and mechanical centering means. The connecting device provides a magnetic coupling for implementing a coupling connection in a coupling area. The centering means are situated opposite one another on the optical systems and coupled in such a way to cause the beam guides to self-center due to the attraction caused by the magnetic forces.

Abstract: An adjusting mechanism for a rearward vehicle seat has an adjusting gearing including a controlling kinematic lever which, on the one side, is restrictedly guided in a frame element and, on the other side, is restrictedly guided in a stationary anchor plate. By displacing the seat, the adjusting gearing permits the linear displacing of the seat part and the swivelling of the seat backrest about a fixed locking point at the vehicle body.

Abstract: An illumination device arrangeable on a front part of a vehicle has a tubular receptacle formed on the front part, a light-permeable cover member covering a light outlet opening, a cup-shaped housing, at least one reflector provided with at least one light source and supported on the housing, the housing being mountable on the receptacle, the cover member being mountable on the front part, the housing having a front edge region facing a light outlet direction and being mountable with the front edge region on a rear-side edge region of the receptacle--facing opposite to the light outlet direction, the cover member, the receptacle and the housing together limiting a closed inner chamber in which the at least one reflector with the at least one light source is arranged.

Abstract: A headlight for a vehicle has a housing, a cover member which together with the housing at least partially limits an inner chamber, a color shutter arranged in the inner chamber so that during observation through the cover member the headlight at least in a turned-off condition has a colored appearance, the shutter being arranged near a lower edge region of the housing and at least partially covering an inner side of the housing.

Abstract: A headlight for vehicles includes a headlight insert with a reflector and a light source inserted in the reflector, a holder mountable on a vehicle part and supporting the headlight insert so that the headlight insert is turnable about a horizontal axis relative to the holder for orientation of a light bundle emitted from the headlight insert, an adjusting screw cooperating with an adjusting element and actuatable to turn the headlight insert about the horizontal axis and a releasable mounting element for mounting the headlight insert at least directly on the holder. The adjusting screw being held on the holder rotatably and axially non-displaceably and the adjusting element being held on the holder axially displaceably and non-rotatably.

Abstract: An illumination device for a vehicle comprises at least one reflector, at least one light source, a housing part at least partially surrounding the reflector and the light source and having a front side provided with a light outlet opening, a light permeable cover member closing the light outlet opening, the housing part being mountable on a front part of the vehicle, the housing part being frame-shaped and having a rear side which faces away from the cover member and being open, the housing part having a rear edge insertable into a cup-shaped depression of the vehicle part, an elastically deformable sealing element provided between an outer periphery of the housing part and an inner periphery of the depression and being elastically deformable in a direction transverse to the insertion direction of the housing part, so that the cover member, the housing part and the depression limit a closed inner chamber accommodating the reflector and the light source.

Abstract: The invention relates to a substance from the calcitonin group, which substance can be isolated from the human body or can be obtained in a different manner, but clearly differs from the known human calcitonin-(1-32), the said substance having hypocalcaemic activity.
