Abstract: A system for supplying a delivery vehicle with electric energy is described, which comprises an electrically drivable delivery vehicle for making a plurality of successive delivery journeys, in each case for transporting consignments on a respective delivery route from a starting point of the delivery route to recipients of the consignments, a supply vehicle for delivering replaceable battery modules to meeting points with the delivery vehicle, and a control device, which is designed to ascertain a likely energy requirement of the delivery vehicle for a subsequent delivery journey of the plurality of successive delivery journeys, taking into account a subsequent delivery route and a likely total weight of the delivery vehicle after loading consignments to be delivered on the subsequent delivery route at the starting point of the subsequent delivery route, and to prompt the supply vehicle to deliver a set of replaceable battery modules to a subsequent meeting point, which is the starting point of the subsequen

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of reloading consignments, in the case of which consignments are transported between at least one logistics center and at least one end customer by means of at least one large vehicle and at least one small vehicle, which may be at least two-axle road vehicles, wherein the small vehicle is electrically operated and has a smaller track width and a lower load capacity than the large vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a logistics system having a large vehicle, a small vehicle and a container. According to the invention, in order to allow containers to be used on different vehicles in an improved manner, the container can be received, with a long side oriented along a transverse direction of the large vehicle, on said large vehicle and, interacting with same via a first movement arrangement, can be moved along a longitudinal direction of the large vehicle, said container can furthermore be received, with the long side oriented along a longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, on said small vehicle and, interacting with same via a second movement arrangement, can be moved along the longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, and said container has multiple legs which, in order for the container to be received on a vehicle, are adjustable from a deployed position into a retracted position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a railing arrangement for a loading platform of a utility vehicle, which railing arrangement, in a state of use, extends distally away from a loading opening of the utility vehicle in a longitudinal direction, having two railing units, the proximal ends of which are fastenable to both sides of the loading opening in a transverse direction and the distal ends of which are fastenable in the region of a distal end edge of the loading platform, such that at least one railing unit is inclined toward the transverse direction in relation to the longitudinal direction and the two railing units define a walkable area that becomes narrower, in the transverse direction, toward the distal end edge.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of pharmaceutical compositions comprising particles, in particular lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), and mRNA, methods for preparing and storing such pharmaceutical compositions, and the use of pharmaceutical compositions in therapy.

Abstract: A method for producing a rotor of a screw compressor or a workpiece with a helical profile, the rotor or the workpiece with a helical profile having a number of profiles in the form of groove-shaped recesses running in a spiral manner on the outer periphery thereof, the groove-shaped recesses being fine-machined using a grinding tool for the purpose of generating a precise profile. To be able to produce rotors and workpieces having variable pitch along the axial extent of the rotor or the workpiece as precisely as possible, the groove-shaped recesses are fine-machined with a grinding tool which only touches the surface of the groove-shaped recess at one point during the grinding process. The entire surface to be machined is machined by the grinding tool through line-by-line traversing of the surface to be machined.

Abstract: A control system (1) for automatically controlling a plurality of devices (2) of a separation and detection process for quantitative sample analysis and according computer program. Such systems and computer programs can be used to operate quantitative sample analysis devices such as for example high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) devices or the like.

Abstract: A system for determining travel deductions includes a city rate table identifying allowed per diem expense rates for each city. Cities visited, durations of stay and expense reimbursements received from the taxpayer's employer are input to the system. The system calculates a total of all per diem expenses and for offsets reimbursements received against the total to determine an incidental expense allowance. For use with merchant sailors, a ship location table with city rate codes for each day of a tax year for a plurality of ships is compared with the sailor's input ship names and starting and ending dates for work on each of the ships. A system for truckers and bus drivers includes a GPS tracking system that continuously provides vehicle locations to the system for calculation of per diem expense allowances when coupled with a daily vehicle use table and receiver code and vehicle number correlation table.

Abstract: In an oil chamber sealing unit of a swing-wing camshaft adjuster of an internal combustion engine, comprising a seal member with an outer sealing surface and with an inner cavity partly surrounded by a wall, and also a separate spring element which is arranged partially in the inner cavity so as to project beyond the wall opposite the sealing surface thereof, the spring element is held in the seal body by means of a holding element extending from the seal member which consists of a deformable metal sheet.

Abstract: A system for determining travel deductions for taxpayers who stay overnight in cities remote from their homes as part of their employment includes a city rate table that identifies allowed per diem expense rates for a plurality of cities. Means are provided for inputting and maintaining data in the table and for inputting cities visited and durations of stay for the taxpayer and expense reimbursements received from the taxpayer's employer. Means are provided for calculating a total of all per diem expenses based upon the city rate table and the input cities and number of days of stay in the cities and for offsetting the reimbursements against the total to determine an incidental expense allowance. For use with merchant sailor taxpayers, the system includes a ship location table with city rate codes for each day of a tax year for a plurality of ships and means for inputting names of ships on which a taxpayer has worked with starting and ending dates for work on each of the ships.
