Abstract: A medical handling device comprises an instrument holder for holding an observation instrument that is equipped with an image capturing unit for capturing an image section of an object plane. The handling device further comprises a robotic handling unit that supports the instrument holder and a control device that comprises a handling control unit for controlling the robotic handling unit and an instrument control unit for controlling the observation instrument. An input device is coupled to the control device for selecting an image section to be reproduced. The control device is adapted to detect a present orientation of the observation instrument and to control the robotic handling unit, while taking into account the present orientation of the observation instrument, in response to user inputs at the input device. The observation instrument is movable with respect to a pivot point in the object plane at a defined object distance along a curved path.

Abstract: The computed tomography device has a gantry with an opening and a radiation protection apparatus for covering the opening. The radiation protection apparatus includes a radiation protection cover and a pivoting apparatus, wherein an object under examination may be inserted into the opening along a system axis of the gantry when the radiation protection cover is in a first position relative to the gantry. The radiation protection cover is pivotably mounted relative to the gantry about a pivot axis by the pivoting apparatus such that a first pivoting motion of the radiation protection cover about the pivot axis enables the radiation protection cover to be lowered relative to the gantry from the first position to a second position. The computed tomography device may furthermore include at least one of a lighting system or a camera system.

Abstract: An electric machine has rotor rotatably supported in bearings for rotation about an axis of rotation, a stator surrounding the rotor with respect to the axis of rotation and having stator sheets, which are stacked in the direction of the axis of rotation. The stator sheets have a number of recesses which form grooves extending parallel to the axis of rotation. Tension strips are arranged in the grooves and connected to end rings. The stator sheets include at least first stator sheets. The first stator sheets each have at least one large lug. Between the two tension strips adjacent to the respective large lug in a circumferential direction about the axis of rotation, the large lug protrudes radially outward beyond the two adjacent tension strips. The large lug has cantilevers extending about the axis of rotation and reaching over the two adjacent tension strips.

Abstract: Multileaf collimator calibration includes defining a reference position of a carriage and determining a first value, the first value being for a drift of a first position of a leaf from a first defined absolute position, the leaf being arranged on the carriage and the carriage being located at the reference position. The multileaf calibration also includes moving the carriage to a position to be checked and determining a second value, the second value being for a drift of a second position of a leaf from a second defined absolute position, the carriage being located at the position to be checked. A difference value is determined by forming the difference between the first value and the second value for the drift of the position of the leaf and using the difference value as a value for the drift of the position of the carriage for the position to be checked.
