  • Patent number: 11015628
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting element (1) for producing a connection between a hollow profiled element (16) and a further component (17), wherein the connecting element (1) is designed for at least interlockingly engaging with the hollow profiled element (16) and for connecting to the further component (17). According to the invention, at least two contact surfaces (2, 3), which are arranged at an offset to each other in height, are provided on the connecting element (1) for contact with at least two sections (18, 19) of the hollow profiled element (16) that correspond to said contact surface.

  • Patent number: 10857868
    Abstract: The invention relates to a structural component for a motor vehicle, comprising an at least partially hollow profiled segment, which can be connected to a motor vehicle body by means of at least two fastening elements arranged in a fastening section. The problem addressed by the invention is that of increasing the crash safety of the structural component. This problem is solved in that a reinforcing element (6) is arranged in the fastening section between a lateral impact surface (16) and the fastening elements (4), which reinforcing element extends in the longitudinal direction of the profiled segment and, in the event of an impact from the impact surface, laterally comes into contact with the fastening means at least partially by means of displacement of the fastening elements, the impact energy thus being absorbed.

  • Patent number: 10818897
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting element (1) to connect a battery cell (15) of an electric vehicle (16) to a battery box (10), wherein the connecting element (1) has at least one connecting section (5) for connection to the battery cell and is joined to the battery box (10). The problem addressed by the invention is that of being able at least largely to dispense with the need to use filler material when joining the connecting element to the baseplate of the battery box so as to improve its quality and make it more cost-effective. The problem is solved by a connecting element (1) that has at least one joining section (2) for securely connecting the connecting element to the battery box (10).

  • Patent number: 8625192
    Abstract: An optical amplifier for pulsed laser with short or ultra-short and energetic pulses includes an optical pumping source for generating a pump wave, an elongate amplifying medium including an input interface for receiving an optical signal to be amplified, the medium being able to amplify the optical signal propagating along the amplifying medium and to extract an amplified signal and an optical system for coupling the pump wave in the amplifying medium so as to pump the amplifying medium longitudinally. The amplifying medium has a minimum transverse dimension ?3 and the optical system focuses the pump wave inside the gain medium, the focused pump wave having a transverse dimension ?6 which is smaller than the dimension ?3 of the medium and a smaller numerical aperture than the numerical aperture of the medium, so that the pump wave propagates freely over a part of the amplifying medium and then in a confined manner over a part of the amplifying medium.

  • Patent number: 5695270
    Abstract: A chemiluminscent coaster includes a coaster combined with a luminous filler or light source, structured as a shell containing reagents for inducing chemiluminescence. At least one surface of the coaster is light transmissive, being wholly or partially transparent or translucent. A single-use chemiluminescent coaster may use light sources in which the reaction takes place extemporaneously at the time of use, or may include light sources wherein pre-mixed reagents are kept at -40.degree. C. in order to prevent any chemiluminescent reaction. Reusable chemiluminscent coasters preferably use extemporaneously chemiluminescent sources. The coaster is structured to permit expansion due to gaseous discharge during the chemiluminescent reaction. A surface thereof may include an opening to permit dilation of the shell, or may be made at least partially of a supple, expandable, material.

  • Patent number: 5671998
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of chemiluminescent light for the illumination of liquids contained in transparent or translucent containers. The methods used are the use of reactants already mixed but preserved under very cold conditions, below -40.degree. C., to freeze the chemiluminescence reaction and the use of chemiluminescent compounds reactivating extemporaneously at the desired moment. The two systems of use of this process are to carry it out either in the liquid to be illuminated or outside the latter.
