  • Patent number: 10847873
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for the wireless coupling of a cellular radio end device to at least one first external antenna, in particular for coupling to an external vehicle antenna, having a coupling structure for the wireless coupling to an antenna structure of the cellular radio end device, wherein the coupling structure has at least two connections; and having a connection unit that connects the first external antenna to one of the at least two connections of the coupling structure in dependence on the coupling quality, wherein the connection unit evaluates the coupling quality between the antenna structure of the cellular radio end device and the at least two connections of the coupling structure during the normal communication operation of the cellular radio end device and/or continuously and/or for both connections simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 9996056
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling a parameter set of a perishable product. According to the invention it is contemplated that an identification (ID) representing the perishable product is detected by a reading device, that the identification of the ID prompts a detection of the parameter set of the product, that a comparison between the identified parameter set and a reference parameter set is carried out, and that a control signal is generated and represented based on the comparison. The present invention further relates to a control system designed for implementing the method.

  • Publication number: 20140372241
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for the sale of packaged foodstuffs via an Internet platform between a supplier and a customer. The Internet platform is designed to present the offer of the supplier to the customers and to directly or indirectly establish contact between the customer and supplier via a transport company to deliver food to the customer as packaged foodstuffs. The food is placed into reusable containers by the supplier, such that said food is kept hot or cooled. A transport company can optionally be connected to any supplier via the Internet platform to pick up an order of a customer that has been received by the Internet platform from the relevant supplier and deliver said order to the customer. A provider of reusable containers can be put into contact with any supplier to supply the latter with reusable containers.

  • Publication number: 20100051600
    Abstract: A combination steamer is described that has a cooking chamber which is externally delimited by a floor, walls, and a door. A steam generator and a first heater disposed on at least one of the walls are assigned to the cooking chamber. The floor is provided with a second heater. Both heaters are disposed outside the cooking chamber. The floor is formed as a cook top provided with the second heater. The walls are each in the form of a heating panel provided with a first heater. The cook top is retractable from the cooking chamber in the manner of a drawer. Thus food can be cooked on the cook top when the cook top is either inside or outside the cooking chamber.

  • Patent number: 6742515
    Abstract: This invention relates to an air extraction device (12) for a work station (14), especially one where food is subjected to heat, for example a grill. One air inlet (36, 38) each is provided on each side of the work station (14), said inlets being connected to a fan (26) and a filter system (28) and communicating with them and with an area (42) disposed above the work station (14) in a closed air cycle (48) that produces an air blast (44) in said area. About 75% of the air are continuously discharged from the air cycle via an air discharge (50) so that only 25% of the air form the air blast (44). The discharged portion of the air is continuously replaced by taking in ambient air via the down-stream air inlet (38) and/or via a separate, additional air inlet (63). The filter system (28) is provided with a grease trap filter (30) upstream of the fan and an odor filter (32) downstream of the fan.
