Abstract: A method for manufacturing a portable data carrier by means of a continuous manufacturing method, comprises the steps: providing at least one foil as a rolled good, unrolling at least one first foil, with at least a first foil being coated at least partly with an adhesive on at least one side, with at least the first foil being scored on at least one side along at least one creasing edge, with at least the first foil being folded up in precise fit along at least one creasing edge and bonded, with the foil being folded up in the direction of the side which is coated with adhesive, with the side coated with adhesive being arranged on the opposite side of the foil which has at least one scored creasing edge along which it is folded.

Abstract: A method for producing a portable data carrier by means of a continuous production method, in particular a roll-to-roll method, includes the step of processing at least one foil in the form of roll goods. The unrolled foil is coated with an adhesive at least partially on at least one side. Subsequently, the foil is scored along at least one fold edge on at least one side of the foil. The foil is then folded along the scored fold edge in exact register and bonded. For this purpose the foil is folded in the direction of the side that is coated with adhesive, wherein the side coated with adhesive is arranged on the opposite side of the foil which has at least one scored fold edge, along which the folding is effected. Finally, data carriers are punched out in exact register from the at least one folded and bonded foil.

Abstract: In a method and an apparatus for personalizing card-shaped data carriers (10, 11, 12), for example chip cards in the formats ID000 to ID3 or other suitable formats, a card-shaped data carrier (10, 11, 12) to be personalized is transported by means of a transport device within the apparatus. During the transport motion, personalization data are transferred to an electronic storage device (13) of the card-shaped data carrier (10, 11, 12) by means of a personalization device (40). The transporting of the card-shaped data carrier (10, 11, 12) is effected by means of a band-shaped or tubular carrier (20, 21, 22, 23) on which a multiplicity of card-shaped data carriers (10, 11, 12) to be personalized are arranged one behind the other in the transport direction.

Abstract: A device for adjustably holding an ultrasonic transducer having an acoustic axis can be attached at a therapeutic head which emits acoustic waves converging in a focus. The device has at least one element which can be swivelled around a first swivel axis of the device. The ultrasonic transducer is at least indirectly attachable at the element such that its acoustic axis proceeds substantially through the focus of the therapeutic head and the swivel axis proceed substantially through the focus of the therapeutic head when the device is attached at the therapeutic head.
