Abstract: The present invention relates to a milk-frothing unit comprising a frothing chamber, a suction portion which leads into the frothing chamber and an outflow which leads out of the frothing chamber, the frothing chamber, the suction portion and the outflow being configured such that milk can be suctioned in via the suction portion and guided into the frothing chamber and can be frothed up therein with gas and/or steam, in particular air and/or water vapour, which is supplied to this frothing chamber and in that the milk-froth mixture resulting from the frothing can be discharged out of the frothing chamber via the outflow, characterised in that the frothing chamber, the suction portion and the outflow are configured and disposed such that the milk to be suctioned in and the discharged milk-froth mixture can be guided in a circulation.

Abstract: The invention relates to dining and/or serving cutlery made of a steel material which is formed from a ferritic core with an essentially martensitic boundary layer. In the dining and/or serving cutlery of the invention, the surface hardness of the boundary layer, determined according to the hardness test according to Vickers HV 3, is thereby greater by 30 to 300% than the lowest hardness of the core, likewise measured according to Vickers HV 3.

Abstract: A cleaning apparatus is provided for a preferably planar surface, in particular a window pane, and has a wiping device and a plunger which keeps the wiping device in contact with the surface and also, by way of an open side, bears against the surface and seals it around the edge. A suction device generates a negative pressure in the plunger. The plunger is provided with driving rollers, which are actuated by motor, for moving the plunger together with the wiping device. The suction device has at least two fans which are each provided with their own outlet opening.

Abstract: A pressure cooker with a handle with an operating element, wherein the operating element comprises a rotating shaft. Also, a pressure cooker with an operating element with which pressure from the pressure cooker can be relieved through an aperture, wherein means are provided with which the pressure can be relieved with at least two specified different pressure relief rates or with at least one specified pressure relief rate and with a pressure relief rate which can be set to greater values than the specified value. Also, a pressure cooker with an operating element for opening and closing an aperture of the pressure cooker, wherein a second operable aperture of the pressure cooker is provided, as well as a pressure cooker with a pressure acquisition device having a mechanical part with at least one part, movable by the pressure, and an electronic part, which can acquire the position of the movable part in order to determine the pressure.

Abstract: An electronic component includes a semiconductor chip which has an active upper side and a passive rear side. The semiconductor chip is surrounded by a sawn edge. This edge of semiconductor material has profile-sawn contours. The profile-sawn contours are surrounded by a plastics composition forming an edge of plastic. The plastics composition is in form-locking engagement with the profile-sawn contours. A method of producing a component of this type is also provided.

Abstract: A semiconductor component includes a semiconductor chip having contact pads on its main face, and a wiring foil, in which are recesses for the contact pads, applied to the main face. The foil has conductor tracks on a side facing away from the main side. The conductor tracks connect the contact pads to solder contacts. The contact pads located in the recess are electrically connected via wire connections to adjacent conductor track ends. Each wire connection is surrounded with a sealing compound of a first and a second layer. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor component includes applying wiring foil to a main side of the chip, producing the wire connection between contact pads and adjacent conductor track ends, applying sealing compound to locations on the recess to completely cover the wire connection with the sealing compound, and only curing the surface of the sealing compound.
