Abstract: A saw gear set comprising a set of saw blades and a saw drive (1), wherein each saw blade of the set is configured to be coupled to the saw drive (1) by means of a coupling mechanism (100), which coupling mechanism (100) is configured to transmit a driving force of the saw drive (1) to the saw blade in a force transmission point, for oscillating the saw blade around a pivot axis (300). Each saw blade of the set is configured to be pivotably borne around the pivot axis (300). In operation, an oscillation angle (?) around the pivot axis (300) is different for each saw blade of the set depending on a pivot distance between the pivot axis (300) and the force transmission point which varies for each saw blade of the set.

Abstract: Systems and apparatus for reliably sealing a surgical device are disclosed herein. Specifically, a surgical device including a drive shaft tube that is coupled to a drive shaft is disclosed. Because the drive shaft tube is coupled to the drive shaft, the drive shaft tube rotates at the same rotational speed as the drive shaft, which is less than the rotational speed of a cannulated motor shaft. The drive shaft tube can extend through the cannulated motor shaft. In addition, a sealing member can be provided to seal between the drive shaft tube (which rotates slowly) and the motor instead of between the motor shaft (which rotates more quickly) and the motor. The sealing member can be provided in a gap defined between an outer surface of a portion of the drive shaft tube extending beyond the cannulated motor shaft and the motor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a half shell for a torsion bar bearing (10, 10A), comprising: a half-shell body (1, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E) formed in one piece and along a body axis (A); and at least one stiffening device (8, 8A, 8B, 8C, 8D, 8E) adapted to increase a rigidity of the half-shell body (1, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E). The invention relates further to a torsion bar bearing (10, 10A) comprising: at least one first half shell and at least one second half shell, wherein at least one of the at least one half shell is disposed opposite to at least one of the at least one second half shell with respect to a torsion bar axis, and to a method of supporting a torsion bar.

Abstract: The invention relates to a toolholder (10) for coupling a welding torch to an industrial robot (14), comprising a first fixing device (16) for fixing the welding torch (12) to the toolholder (10) and comprising a second fixing device (18) for fixing the toolholder (10) to the industrial robot (14). The first and second fixing devices (16, 18) can be displaced or repositioned with regard to one another counter to the action of spring elements (22, 24). The toolholder also comprises a protective circuit (26) for deactivating the welding torch (12) when predetermined displacements or repositionings are exceeded. A component (28) connected to the first fixing device (16) can be repositioned in the Z-direction (30) (toolholder longitudinal axis) and can be displaced in the X-direction and/or Y-direction (32, 34) with regard to the second fixing device (18).

Abstract: A pressure gauge device that is operated as a thermal conduction manometer contains a measuring resistor (131) that is arranged in layer form on a self-supporting carrier foil and is in defined thermal contact with a gas whose pressure is to be measured. The thermal contact with the gas is through the carrier foil (11), a thermal conducting layer (123) and optionally through an extra absorber layer (124). The resistance, dependent on gas pressure, of the measuring resistor (131) is detected by a bridge circuit in which each measuring resistor (131) is assigned a reference resistor (136) whose resistance itself is dependent on or independent of pressure.
