  • Patent number: 11967235
    Abstract: A method for determining the position of a non-motorized road user including ascertaining a first geodetic position of the road user in a position determination device, which uses a global navigation satellite system, of the terminal, and transmitting the first geodetic position to a traffic device. In a control unit of the traffic device, ascertaining a second geodetic position of the road user from a geodetic traffic device position and a relative position ascertained from sensor data, showing the road user, of at least one surroundings sensor of the traffic device. At least if a limiting value for a deviation of the first position from the second position is exceeded, transmitting an item of deviation information describing the second position and/or the deviation from the traffic device to the mobile terminal, and using the deviation information to correct the position ascertainment in the position determination device.

  • Patent number: 9386945
    Abstract: A blood lancing device includes a housing unit and a cap. When the cap is disposed at an initial position, a second drive element is blocked by a first drive element from forward movement relative to the first drive element. When the cap is moved from the initial position to a retracted position, the first drive element pushes the second drive element so that the second drive element is deviated from the first drive element when a holder holding a lancet is moved to a trigger position, thereby allowing for a high speed movement of the holder from the trigger position to a pricking position by virtue of biasing action of a first biasing member.

  • Patent number: 9138543
    Abstract: An injection device including a dosage setting element and a first element which is coupled to the dosage setting element and can be rotated relative to another, second element when a dosage is being set and is rotationally fixed relative to the second element when a dosage is being delivered, wherein the first element and the second element are coupled via a coupling member, and a stop abutment, wherein when a dosage is being set, the coupling member performs a movement toward a stop position, wherein the coupling member prevents a dosage from being set when it is in the stop position.

  • Patent number: 6467721
    Abstract: In order to perceptibly reduce the inevitable trajectory scatter or spread of ballistically fired projectiles in the target area without the technological expenditure involved in automatic target-seeking control, and in order thereby substantially to improve the level of target hit accuracy, the minimum trajectory path is laid through the previously ascertained target position, having regard to the error budget of the weapon and the external influencing parameters to be expected so that all real trajectories up to the maximum trajectory of that overall error budget are behind the target position. The descent of the projectile into the target area is then shortened from the real trajectory to the minimum trajectory, that is to say towards the target position.

  • Patent number: 5027710
    Abstract: A practice projectile without an explosive for firing against a practice target with large-calibered weapons, wherein the projectile incorporates a projectile body which is in the configuration of a cylinder and which possesses a conical nose cone. The projectile includes a nose cone which is constructed in the shape of a truncated cone having a flat leading end surface with a diameter of about 0.08 to 0.1 that of the projectile caliber, wherein the nose cone forms a sharp contact edge with the cylinder of the projectile; a ratio in the length of the nose cone to that of the cylinder of approximately 1:1.+-.5%; a location of the center of gravity of 3 to 3.5 times the projectile caliber, measured commencing from the leading end surface; and a ratio of 4.0 to 7.0 for the moments of inertia between the transverse and longitudinal moments.
