  • Patent number: 12233790
    Abstract: A method for checking a vehicle includes receiving measured data by an electronic computing device which is external to the vehicle and which is different from the vehicle. The measured data are received from a measurement device which is different from the vehicle and different from the electronic computing device and the measured data characterize an acceleration of the vehicle recorded by the measurement device and/or a noise of the vehicle recorded by the measurement device and/or an image of a subregion of the vehicle recorded by the measurement device. The received measured data are evaluated by the electronic computing device and the vehicle is checked for a malfunction based on the evaluating of the received measured data by the electronic computing device.

  • Publication number: 20230336442
    Abstract: To transfer data source data of a data source being destined for a data sink, from the data source to the data sink spaced from each other within a business premises it is proposed to download the data source data from of the data source, configure the data source data by packing the data source data with data source-related meta-information, encrypting the packed data source data and storing the configured data source data as transfer data for the transfer, onload the stored transfer data onto a transfer-data-carrier transferring the transfer data for an offload operation, offload the transfer data from the transfer-data-carrier, process offloaded transfer data by decrypting and unpacking the configured data source data and transforming the decrypted and unpacked data source data with the meta-information into data sink data to execute a data source data-related transaction in the data sink, and upload the data sink data.

  • Patent number: 8512623
    Abstract: A labeler for labeling plastic containers in the blow mold as well as to a labeling method for use of the labeler, where due to the fact that the rotating insertion device of the labeler comprises articulated arms having each rotatably supported thereon a gripper, it is possible to remove labels from stationary magazines at a comparatively low relative speed. The articulated arms are able to follow the path of the blow molds during insertion of the labels with high speed. The grippers are rotatably supported which allows an exact radial orientation of the gripper with respect to the axis of rotation of the blow wheel that continues to rotate during insertion of the labels, to thus allow a particularly accurate and reliable labeling.

  • Publication number: 20120153194
    Abstract: The invention refers to a valve comprising a main nozzle arranged between inlet and outlet, and a pilot nozzle. The main nozzle has a main nozzle fit. It is sealed by a sealing body. The pilot nozzle has a pilot nozzle fit that can be sealed by a pilot nozzle body. A movable operating element arranged in the valve serves for opening and closing the main and pilot nozzle. When the valve is opened, first of all, the already accelerated operating element lifts the pilot nozzle body from the pilot nozzle fit.
