  • Patent number: 10196159
    Abstract: A filling needle for filling a container with a fluid, in particular a pharmaceutical or cosmetic fluid, having a housing that extends along a longitudinal axis and has an inlet opening and an outlet opening, having a core element arranged within the housing so as to be displaceable between an opening position and a closure position, having a plunger element coupled to the core element that closes and opens the outlet opening, and having an actuating arrangement for the displacement of the core element between the opening position and the closure position. The core element has at least one core magnet, wherein the actuating arrangement is arranged outside the housing and has at least one actuating magnet, and wherein core actuating magnets are arranged such that they interact with an attractive action and the core element and the actuating arrangement are displaceable jointly parallel to the longitudinal axis.

  • Patent number: 8276440
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the error monitoring of chassis components of rail vehicles, including at least one vibration sensor. According to one embodiment of the invention, at least one vibration sensor is arranged on a bogie frame or on a wheel set bearing of an axis of a bogie of the rail vehicle such that the detection direction thereof has a component in the moving direction (x-direction) or a component perpendicular to the moving direction (y-direction) and at the same time a component parallel to the vertical axis (z-direction) of the rail vehicle.

  • Patent number: 8276995
    Abstract: A control unit for a rail vehicle, comprising a braking control unit that contains an electronic braking control device for emitting control commands to brake actuators and/or comprising an anti-skid device, which controls the wheel slip of the wheels of at least one axle in accordance with at least one rotational speed signal from an anti-skid sensor. The control unit also comprises a roll monitoring unit with an electronic roll monitoring control device and at least one roll monitoring sensor for detecting the rotational speed of at least some wheels in the form of a rotational speed signal, and comprises a rolling gear monitoring unit for monitoring and/or diagnosing critical conditions of and damage to the rolling gear. The monitoring unit comprises an electronic control device for monitoring the rolling gear.
