Abstract: An insulating cover for at least two electrical conductors includes two adjacent parallel tunnels, each arranged to receive one electrical conductor for the purpose of economical fabrication and the avoidance of insulation damage even over the long term, made by shaping at least one long, thin, flexible strip of electrically insulating material.

Abstract: A gas sensor is provided, for example, a sensor for determining the concentration or the temperature of a gas component. The gas sensor has a housing, in which a sensor element having at least one contact surface is arranged. The contact surface is conductively connected to a conductor element. The sensor element having the contact surface and the conductor element is arranged between two contact supports situated opposite one another. A spring element contacting the contact supports presses the conductor element onto the contact surface. Each of the contact supports, on sides facing one another, has at least one recess and at least one protuberance, the protuberance of one contact support engaging in the recess of the other contact support, and vice versa.

Abstract: The invention relates to a gas probe (10) for installation in a measurement gas chamber, having a metal housing (30) in which a planar sensor element (21) is disposed, electrically insulated, with at least one contact face (22) that is conductively connected to a metal conductor element (23). For the conductor element (23), an electrically insulating contact holder (24) is provided, which presses the conductor element (23) onto the contact face (22) by means of a spring element (25) that engages the contact holder (24). The conductor element (23) is disposed in an indentation (26) of the contact holder (24), which indentation is oriented toward the contact face (22) of the sensor element (21), and by way of a region protruding out of the indentation (26) of the contact holder (24), the conductor element is in contact with the contact face (22).

Abstract: The invention relates to a combined network system for providing individualized information from a totality of information items for at least one subscriber (3) to the network system by means of a central unit (1) of the network system, the network system exhibiting at least one broadcasting system (2) for transmitting the totality of information items and at least one mobile communication system (6) for transmitting individualized information to the at least one subscriber (3) and for the interaction of the at least one subscriber (3) to the network system with the central unit (1) of the network system. The invention also relates to a method for providing individualized information from a totality of information items for at least one subscriber (3) to a network system by means of a central unit (1) of the network system.
