Abstract: The present is a description of a method for transferring data between at least two transmitters and one receiver having repeatedly transferring first identical data from a first one of the transmitters to the receiver in a first sequence and repeatedly transferring second identical data from a second one of the transmitters to the receiver in a second sequence. The number of repetitions in the first sequence and the number of repetitions in the second sequence are equal to or greater than the number of transmitters, and the first and second sequences are different to each other. In this way a data transfer can be realized with less expenditure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tubular adapter for clamping connection with the end of a tubular part (4) of a modular prosthesis. The adapter includes an axially slotted connecting sleeve (2) circumferentially clampable by means of a clamping bolt or the like and intended to receive tube end (4), with one end of said sleeve abutted by an annular coupling section (3) preferably having on its circumference four equally spaced threaded holes (5), each hole being designed to receive a coupling and adjusting bolt (clamping bolt) and having an annular ball socket (6) provided endwise to engage a ball collar of an adjusting core. The socket extends in the coupling position on a projection designed as a multi-surface pyramid into the clamping area of the clamping bolts.
