  • Publication number: 20230314814
    Abstract: An eyeglass lens for an optical imaging element for producing a virtual image of an initial image includes a main body and at least one complementary element mounted on the main body. The main body has a material with a first index of refraction n1. A viscous or solid intermediate layer is arranged between the complementary element and the main body at least in the region where the complementary element overlaps with a reflection section of the main body. The material of the viscous or solid intermediate layer has a second index of refraction n2 that satisfies the condition n2<n1 sin(?E). ?E is an angle of incidence of the light beams of the imaging beam path proceeding from the incoupling section and incident on the reflection section, selected such that at least 50% of the light beams of the imaging beam path have an angle of incidence of ?>?E.

  • Patent number: 11117296
    Abstract: The invention presents molding tools, in which a position of a molding tool within a base tool or a position of molding cores relative to each other can be set by adjusting a position of base tools by means of controllable adjustment elements.

  • Patent number: 10794678
    Abstract: An apparatus for measuring a surface of a workpiece has a multi-link articulated arm and a roughness sensor carried by the arm, which includes a sensing element linearly displaceable along an advance direction and elastically deflectable along a deflection direction, and which has a coupling link to connect it to a movable carrier of a coordinate measuring apparatus or of a robot. A first arm portion is rotatable relative to the coupling link about a first axis of rotation. A second arm portion is rotatable relative to the first arm portion about a second axis of rotation and arranged between the first and third arm portion which is rotatable relative to the second arm portion about a third axis of rotation, and to which the roughness sensor is fastened. The deflection direction is arranged parallel to the third axis while the sensing element is displaced linearly along the advance direction.
