  • Publication number: 20210164460
    Abstract: A bead gasket for sealing off an axial joint between a first component and a second component, the bead gasket including a first bead loop surrounds a first inner region in an axial view and includes a bead end face for an axial contact with one of the components; a passage for fluid which is located in the first inner region, wherein the first bead loop is a smallest bead loop surrounding the passage; and a first rigidifying structure which extends from the first bead loop into the first inner region in the axial view in order to rigidify the first bead loop.

  • Patent number: 7574190
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an electronic circuit for processing at least two at least partially correlated output signal streams of a mixer, the mixer having at least two signal inputs and at least two electric signal outputs. In order to provide a method and a device or an electronic circuit which enables the correlated signal portions of the output signals of a mixer to be separated from the uncorrelated signal portions undelayed, it is proposed according to the invention that the difference of the output signal streams of the mixer is formed pairwise directly and during the readout of the signal streams and that the circuit has an apparatus for the instantaneous formation of the difference between the signal streams of two mixer outputs in each case.

  • Patent number: 7361883
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a photonic mixer device with a photosensitive layer, at least two modulation gates (3, 4, 103, 104, 203, 204, 303, 304, 403, 404) and at least two readout electrodes (1, 2, 101, 102, 201, 202, 301, 302, 401, 402, 501, 502, 601, 602) connected to the photosensitive layer, the modulation gates (3, 4, 103, 104, 203, 204, 303, 304, 403, 404) being able to be connected to a modulation device which raises and lowers the potential of the modulation gates relative to one another and relative to the preferably constant potential of the readout electrodes corresponding to a desired modulation function.

  • Publication number: 20050237593
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electromagnetic mixing system for receiving and processing modulated electromagnetic signals, with a signal detector made from a semiconductor material for receiving and converting electromagnetic radiation into an electric measured value and with at least one modulation input modulating the reception of the signal detector, and also with at least two accumulation electrodes which are connected to output electronics at the output of which a mixture of the received signal and at least one modulation signal applied at the modulation input is effectively provided as electric signal. The present invention also relates to a method for operating such an electromagnetic mixing system, the electromagnetic signals striking the signal detector producing charge carriers which, depending on the at least one modulation signal, are conducted at least partially alternately to the at least two different readout electrodes.
