  • Patent number: 10292581
    Abstract: A display device with a retaining device is disclosed, which can be placed on the head of a user. The display device contains a first image generator, which is secured or can be secured to the retaining device, and a first optical imaging system which is secured to the retaining device and which is designed to image an image generated on a first image plane (E) by the first image generator such that the user can perceive the image with a first eye (LA) when the retaining device is placed on the head of the user. The retaining device supports a first refraction determining optical system which is designed to determine the subjective refraction of the first eye (LA) when the retaining device is placed on the head of the user and/or the first optical imaging system is configured to be variable.

  • Patent number: 10247187
    Abstract: A variable displacement vane pump has a control slide displaceable within its housing and a first control chamber and a second control chamber for receiving pressurized lubricant. A thermally adjustable control valve is provided in the housing for adjusting pump displacement based on a temperature of the lubricant. In addition to fluid communication channels in the control chambers, at least one vent port is provided in the second chamber. The control valve is configured to control pressure and fluid communication between the chambers along with the control slide. The control valve can help reduce pump displacement at lower temperatures and low engine speeds. At lower temperatures, the second control chamber can be pressurized by the first control chamber. At higher temperatures, the second control chamber can be vented through the control valve and/or the vent port, despite the position of the control slide.

  • Publication number: 20060199926
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel oxygen-containing organoaluminium complexes of the general formula (I) in which R1, independently of one another, denote branched or unbranched C1-C7-alkyl, -cycloalkyl, -alkenyl, -cycloalkenyl, -aryl or -alkynyl; R2 denotes unsubstituted, mono- or polyalkylated and/or mono- or polyfluorinated aromatic hydrocarbons from the group R3, R4, independently of one another, denote CH2, CF2 or C(R1)2; independently of one another, m denotes 0, 1, 2 n denotes 0, 1, 2. These compounds can serve as cocatalysts in olefinic polymerisation reactions. In particular, they can be employed for the preparation of novel Ziegler-Natta catalysts having improved properties, in particular having higher activities compared with conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts with AlEt3, as cocatalyst, or of novel coordination catalyst systems which have higher activities than conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts, even at low temperatures, such as 60° C., and a pressure of 2 bar.
