Patent number: 11070100Abstract: A stator for an electric machine includes a stator carrier having a plurality of grooves with a respective groove base, and a motor winding having at least one first strand. A predetermined number of first grooves of the plurality of grooves is associated with the first strand. At least one coil section of the first strand is introduced into each of the first grooves. The first strand has a plurality of individual wires connected electrically in parallel, with each wire formed as a round wire. At least some of the individual wires in each of the coil sections are arranged above one another in a radial direction of the stator. The coil sections are each arranged in the first grooves in such a way that an average radial distance of the individual wires to the groove base is equal for all individual wires.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2016Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignee: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFTInventors: Michael Bernhardt, Daniel Fritsch, Michael Müller

Patent number: 10741753Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for memory arrays that use a conductive hard mask during formation and, in some cases, operation are described. A hard mask may be used to define features or components during the numerous material formation and removal steps used to create memory cells within a memory array. The hard mask may be an electrically conductive material, some or all of which may be retained during formation. A conductive line may be connected to each memory cell, and because the hard mask used in forming the cell may be conductive, the cell may be operable even if portions of the hard mask remain after formation.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Michael Bernhardt, Tony Lindenberg, Wenzhe Zhang, Douglas Capson

Patent number: 9504241Abstract: Disclosed herein is a trap for flying pests that does not require the use of chemicals and can be packaged in such a way that it can be present in public areas without being unsightly or intrusive. The trap is reusable, easy to set up, easy to clean, and easy to operate. An example trap includes an outer wall containing a solution, an inner wall extending into the solution, and a space formed between the outer wall and the inner wall. The trap also includes an air pump and one or more air supply conduits that supply air from the air pump to the solution. The air forms bubbles in the solution that rise in the space formed between the outer wall and the inner wall and that cascade downward within the inner wall and into the solution. The cascading bubbles serve to capture flies that land on the bubbles and retain the flies within the trap.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2014Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Inventor: Michael Bernhardt

Publication number: 20090215588Abstract: A method to control the velocity of a treadmill according to the walking velocity of the person that is using the treadmill. A reaction force is measured, which occurs when a longitudinal repulsion force is created between the treadmill (2) and the person (1). A signal representation for said reaction force is transmitted to a control unit. The control unit is used to control the velocity of the treadmill.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2006Publication date: August 27, 2009Applicant: EIDGENÖSSISCHE TECHNISCHE HOCHSCHULE ZÜRICHInventors: Robert Riener, Michael Bernhardt, Joachim Von Zitzewitz
