Abstract: Control box, in particular for adjustable items of furniture, such as vertically adjustable tables for example, comprising: a control box housing and a mains plug in a wall of the control box housing, wherein the control box housing has a strain relief device for a mains cable with a main cable socket for connection to the mains plug, characterized in that the strain relief device has an, in particular channel-like, mains cable clamping guide which is arranged upstream of the mains plug in the insertion direction of the mains cable socket and so as to run transversely to the insertion direction in the control box housing and therefore below the mains plug such that the mains cable socket, when it is inserted into the mains plug, at least partially closes the mains cable clamping guide on the top side in such a way that the associated mains cable does not move out of the mains cable clamping guide.

Abstract: An apparatus for mapping a gaze point of a subject on a scene image to a gaze point in a reference image, wherein said scene image and said reference image have been taken by a camera from a different position, said apparatus comprising: A module for executing a feature detection algorithm on said reference image to identify a plurality of characteristic features and their locations in said reference image; a module for executing said feature detection algorithm on said scene image to re-identify said plurality of characteristic features and their locations in said scene image; a module for determining a point transfer mapping that transforms point positions between said scene image and said reference image based on the locations of said plurality of characteristic features detected in said reference image and said scene image; a module for using said point transfer mapping to map a gaze point which has been determined in said scene image to its corresponding point in said reference image.

Abstract: An elastic joint body for a shaft arrangement for the articulated connection of two shaft sections includes a plurality of bushings disposed in the circumferential direction at predetermined angular distances relative to a central axis of the joint body, a plurality of loop bundles, and a rubber elastic casing. Each loop bundle loops around two adjacent bushings and each bushing is looped by at least two of the plurality of loop bundles. Each of the plurality of bushings is provided with a plurality of bushing components. A first bushing component has an axial shaft section against which one of the loop bundles rests and wherein a second bushing component has a radial collar section against which the loop bundle rests. The first bushing component rests, without fixing, against the second bushing component in a contact zone offset relative to the loop bundle in the axial direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coupling for connecting two shaft sections in a damping manner, including a bushing arrangement having a radially inner bushing and a radially outer bushing, wherein the radially inner bushing can be coupled to a first shaft section and the radially outer bushing can be coupled to a second shaft section so as to transmit torque, wherein a damping layer is provided between the radially inner bushing and the radially outer bushing. The bushing arrangement can have a circumferentially wave-shaped contour, wherein the radially inner bushing and the radially outer bushing have shafts that mesh with each other, and wherein the damping layer is provided with axial openings, which extend reciprocally from both axial ends of the coupling into the damping layer so that damping blocks are formed at the axial ends of the coupling between the radially inner and radially outer bushings.

Abstract: An electrically controlled valve, in particular for the variable adjustment of the damper characteristic curve of a vibration damper, comprising a magnetic drive for actuating a valve slide that is guided in a housing in one moving direction, as well as a passage arranged in the housing between a valve inlet and a valve outlet for the variable volume flow control, the passage cooperating with a control edge of the valve slide. The moving direction of the valve slide is electrically reversible, thereby resulting in a comparatively simple mechanical layout for the valve for variably controlling the characteristic curve of the valve.

Abstract: In an embodiment, data models are stitched into a stitched data model, where each of the data models has nets and at least one of the nets crosses a package boundary. A subset of the nets from the stitched data model are selected based on a constraint, and the subset is stitched into a common rule. In various embodiments, the constraints may include a wire length, a name of the nets, and maximum numbers of vias or T-connections. If the nets are completely wired, then wire segments between nodes of the nets are connected and nodes that include non-branching vias are moved. If the nets are not completely wired, then for any of the nets that have an open connection, a rule is found with a same number of the nodes as the net with the open connection, and the nets are ordered based on the rule.
