Abstract: An air-conditioning device for conditioning/controlling the temperature of a surface contacted by a user at least occasionally, especially the surface of a vehicle interior component, which can be monitored by means of a corresponding detector device for detecting contact, use, or both. It is provided that the air-conditioning device has at least one air-conditioning layer, which extends at least partially along the surface, at least one companion layer, which extends at least partially along the air-conditioning layer and is connected to the air-conditioning layer at least in some sections in order to form an insertion pocket, and that at least one detector device can be inserted into the insertion pocket.

Abstract: An air-conditioning system for a seat includes a cushion having a cover and two air-conditioned zones proximate a surface facing a seat occupant, and an elongated depression between the zones, the depression having a floor which is recessed with respect to the zones and into which the cover is at least partially drawn into in the direction of the depression floor, the air-conditioned zones being at least partially distanced from the depression. The zones and the depression are connected by a plurality of air-permeable channels, the channels being located between the air-conditioned zones essentially on or above the depression floor. The depression, in the transverse direction, is at least partially air-permeable, despite the cover.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing for a water-soluble crystal to be placed in its interior, with polished optical end faces, especially for nonlinear frequency conversion in laser applications, with a jacket housing for receiving and holding the crystal at its jacket, leaving these end faces free, and with housing lids sealing off the two end jacket openings of the housing in a gastight manner, the lids both being secured in a releasable fashion to the jacket housing, with an optically transparent window in the form of a disk being located between each housing lid and the jacket housing, the disk sealing off the interior by means of an O-ring. Each housing lid has an inwardly projecting projection at its lid edge, the projection engaging an outwardly open groove to form a latching connection.
