Abstract: In a method for producing a winding overhang assembly for an electrical rotating machine, an insulating main body is produced at least partly from a dielectric material. Each of a plurality of conductors of a metal material is connected to the insulating main body via an intermediate layer, which is produced from a material which is different from the dielectric material of the insulating main body and from the metal material of the conductors and which is produced from silver, aluminum, antimony, magnesium, tin, zinc, lead, tantalum or from a mixture and/or from at least one alloy thereof. The conductors are hereby sprayed onto the intermediate layer by a thermal spraying method.

Abstract: A device for stimulating a human erogenous zone includes a housing; a drive device; a pressure chamber at least partially surrounded by a chamber wall; a chamber wall portion, the drive device to cause the chamber wall portion to repeatedly move between different wall positions to cause a volume of the pressure chamber to vary to cause pressure in the pressure chamber to modulate between positive pressures and negative pressures relative to an ambient pressure; a housing opening, the positive pressures and the negative pressures to be output via the housing opening; and a seal to seal the pressure chamber with respect to an ambient environment, the drive device including a coil through which an electrical current is to flow, the drive device disposed in a magnetic field and coupled to the chamber wall portion to transmit the drive movement to cause the chamber wall portion to move.

Abstract: Direct stimulation devices with improved drives are disclosed herein. An example stimulation device for a clitoris includes a stimulation head to contact the clitoris; a linear drive device coupled to the stimulation head and configured to cause the stimulation head to vibrate; a control device configured to control the drive device; a battery to supply power to the control device; and a housing. The control device and the battery are disposed in the housing.

Abstract: An example device for stimulating a clitoris includes a housing; a drive device configured to provide a drive movement; a pressure chamber at least partially surrounded by a chamber wall; a chamber wall portion forming a portion of the chamber wall, the drive device to cause the chamber wall portion to repeatedly move between different wall positions to cause a chamber volume of the pressure chamber to repeatedly increase and decrease to generate a variable pressure field; a housing opening fluidly connected to the pressure chamber, the variable pressure field to be output via the housing opening in the form of negative and positive pressures; the drive device including a coil device through which an electrical current is to flow, the drive device disposed in a stationary permanent magnetic field and coupled to the chamber wall portion to transmit the drive movement to cause the chamber wall portion to move.

Abstract: An electric rotating machine includes a machine housing having a mixed condensation chamber, a rotor accommodated in the machine housing, and a stator accommodated in the machine housing in adjacent relationship to the mixed condensation chamber. A cooling device includes a first assembly to expose at least a part of the stator and/or the rotor to a vaporization coolant which vaporizes when contacting the part so as to effect a vaporization cooling, and a second assembly to dispense a liquid condensation coolant into the mixed condensation chamber for contacting the vaporization coolant so as to effect a mixed condensation of the vaporized vaporization coolant with the liquid condensation coolant in the mixed condensation chamber.

Abstract: An example stimulation device for stimulation of an area inside a human body includes a first portion configured to at least partially be inserted into the human body, a pressure field generation device configured to generate a pneumatic pressure alternating field, and a pressure chamber coupled with the pressure field generation device, the pressure chamber configured to accommodate a pressure alternating field generated by the pressure field generation device. The pressure chamber is disposed in the first portion and includes an opening formed in the first portion, the pressure alternating field in the pressure chamber to be applied via the opening to the area to be stimulated inside the human body.

Abstract: An example stimulation device for a male penis includes a pressure field generation device for generating a pneumatic alternating pressure field, and an applicator for applying the alternating pressure field to a portion of a penis that is to be stimulated. The applicator has a pressure chamber, which can receive an alternating pressure field generated by the pressure field generation device. The pressure chamber has an opening in a contact region of the applicator, so that the alternating pressure field can be applied directly to a portion of the penis that is to be stimulated via the opening. A sealing device is arranged on the applicator, which is configured to seal the pressure chamber against the environment when the applicator is applied to the penis.
