  • Publication number: 20240339680
    Abstract: Method for communication between a power tool and a rechargeable battery, wherein the rechargeable battery includes a controller unit having a first transceiver, and the power tool includes a control unit having a second transceiver. The method involves the method steps of emitting a first signal from the first to the second transceiver; emitting a second signal from the first to the second transceiver after a predetermined period of time has elapsed; shifting the power tool from a first operating state into a second operating state if the number of received signals in a predetermined period of time reaches a predetermined threshold value, and/or emitting a signal to the first transceiver in order to shift the rechargeable battery from a first operating state into a second operating state if the number of received signals in a predetermined period of time reaches a predetermined threshold value. System for performing the method for communication, including a power tool and rechargeable battery.

  • Patent number: 9480197
    Abstract: A stabilizer for a lower link of a three-point hitch of a tractor, includes a first stabilizer element and a second stabilizer element, which is supported so it can move with spring action relative to the first stabilizer element along a common longitudinal axis. A first limiting member is connected with the first stabilizer element, which in a closed position forms a first stop which interacts with the second stabilizer element to limit compression movement between the two stabilizer elements. A second limiting member between the two stabilizer elements forms a second stop to limit the compression movement relative to a corresponding end stop of the stabilizer when the first limiting member is brought into an opened position.

  • Patent number: 8573626
    Abstract: A tractor includes a vehicle coupler which couples with a trailer brake coupler to connect it to a pressure source for the trailer brake system. The pressure source is driven by a controllable drive unit, and an electronic control unit controls the activation of the drive unit. The vehicle coupler includes a first sensor which is connected to the control unit and which senses when the trailer coupler is coupled to the vehicle coupler. The control unit controls the activation of the drive unit in response to the sensor in order to prevent the pressure source from being driven unnecessarily.

  • Publication number: 20130184557
    Abstract: In a finding system, a control system and a computer-implemented method to assess medical images, within the scope of a finding workflow a control module can be activated via which the user can enter control data at the finding system. The control data are automatically converted into control commands, which are transmitted to the acquisition system for execution. The acquisition system is expanded by an expansion module in order to transmit process data and status data to the finding system.

  • Patent number: 7885828
    Abstract: A system and method may generate a radiological request by which to conduct a radiological procedure that employs a series of procedural steps to acquire internal images of a patient. Each step may have a corresponding protocol item which affects image quality and the time required to complete the step. A database may be maintained that includes protocol items and patient characteristic data. A rule-based algorithm may accept patient characteristic data as input. Based upon one or more patient characteristics, an overall protocol by which to conduct the radiological procedure may be determined. The tailored protocol may include steps that are selected, omitted, and/or altered based upon a patient characteristic. The patient characteristics may be medical restrictions, such as age, pregnancy, allergies, artificial joints, or other limitations. As a result, the protocol items may be automatically selected based upon patient specific characteristics, and/or an anatomical structure to be examined.

  • Patent number: 7787684
    Abstract: In a method for planning an examination of an examination subject in a magnetic resonance system, the planning of the examination ensues based on a composite overview image that is composed of at least two individual images. A first part of the overview image is acquired and the first part of the overview image is made available to operating personnel of the magnetic resonance system for planning further measurements. A second part of the overview image is acquired and the first part and the second part of the overview image are combined. The combined image of the first part and second part of the overview image is made available for planning further measurements. The first part of the overview image is made available to operating personnel no later than before making the overview image available.
