  • Patent number: 11761579
    Abstract: The invention relates to a load holder (1, 200) for a suspension system for suspending loads, comprising fastening means (30, 30?) for releasably fastening a suspension module (10) to and/or a suspension module (10) on a first end of the load holder (1, 200), as well as a load bearing device (60) at a second end of the load holder (1, 200), which faces away from the first end along a longitudinal direction (L) of the load holder (1, 200). In order to reduce the risk of falling loads when using the suspension system and to simply the correct set-up of the suspension system, the load holder (1, 200) further comprises a levelling module (20, 20?) for adjusting a length (L1, L2) of the load holder (1, 200) in the longitudinal direction (L) and a measurement module (40) for measuring a tensile load between the load bearing device (60) and the first end.

  • Patent number: 7082023
    Abstract: In a method for function monitoring of an electronic-mechanical position switch in which the wiper voltage of a potentiometer acted upon by an actuation tappet is evaluated in comparison to a threshold value in order to activate or deactivate electronic contacts, during first or second test intervals a microcontroller interrupts watchdog signals or contact-closing control signals and checks the state of the switching contacts. If the expected state transition of the switching contacts from the closed into the open state does not occur, then the control signals make the transition to the contact-opening signal level or the watchdog signals are discontinued.

  • Patent number: 6975508
    Abstract: A modular electrical device combination includes an operator control module and a computer module that can be electrically coupled to the operator control module. The operator control module has a fastening portion on its rear side for installation into a mounting panel. Mechanical connecting means are provided in an extension at a free end of the fastening portion.

  • Patent number: 6409363
    Abstract: A control and signaling unit or a signaling unit having a light-emitting element, made up of a front element and a mounting adapter for locking the functional elements into place. This is achieved in that only one light-emitting diode having a diode crown and connecting wires are integrated in the functional element, the diode crown being embedded and retained in a receptacle, the light-emitting diode having an angle of radiation of 30-45°. The light-emitting diode has a luminosity of at least 0.5 candela, and an electronic circuit is arranged on circuit conductors, secured to the inner housing wall of a housing half and applied using a foil heat-embossing process.
