  • Patent number: 11948689
    Abstract: A method is for determining a patient-adjusted breast compression in mammography. In an embodiment of the method, input data including individual, person-related data of a female patient, is determined. Furthermore, an adjusted individual compression point is determined by applying a function, trained by an algorithm based on machine learning, to the input data. The adjusted individual compression point is generated as the output data. Other embodiments include a method for providing a trained function; a breast compression determining device; a training device; and a mammography system.

  • Patent number: 9434917
    Abstract: An energy-saving method and apparatus for boiling wort in a beer brewing process is easily implemented and managed. The wort (W) to be boiled is supplied to a wort kettle (2) in a batchwise and discontinuous manner, and each batch (C) of wort (W) supplied to the wort kettle (2) is boiled during a boiling phase, whereby the wort vapor (D) escaping during the boiling phase is supplied to a vertical column (10) connected on the steam side to the wort kettle (2), and is rectified in the vertical column.

  • Patent number: 8511450
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multiple clutch device having a first clutch which is assigned a first actuating piston with a first pressure chamber and a first pressure equalization chamber, and having a second clutch which is assigned a second actuating piston with a second pressure chamber and a second pressure equalization chamber, a first crossflow channel being provided for setting the hydraulic fluid column in the first pressure equalization chamber and a second crossflow channel being provided for setting the hydraulic fluid column in the second pressure equalization chamber. According to the invention, the first and second crossflow channels are arranged in such a way that both the oil which is discharged via the first crossflow channel and the oil which is discharged via the second crossflow channel can be fed to the first and second clutches.
