Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a vibration polishing device, comprising: a vibration drive for generating an oscillating vibration for polishing samples; polishing disc which is connected to and can be driven by the vibration drive; and polishing bowl which is designed to receive a polishing medium and the samples to be polished and is coupled to the polishing disc; wherein the coupling between the polishing bowl and the polishing disc is accomplished by a quick-type coupling for transferring the oscillating vibrations from the polishing disc to the polishing bowl when the vibration polishing device is in operation and thereby to move the sample to be polished in the polishing bowl.

Abstract: A transmission control device, in particular for a motor vehicle, includes a circuit board element, and an electrical-connector housing. The circuit board element has electronic components. The electrical-connector housing is configured to receive an electrical connector, and to electrically connect the electrical connector to the circuit board element. The electrical-connector housing substantially consists of a thermoset material, and partially encloses the circuit board element via direct contact in an integrally bonded fashion.

Abstract: A vapor sensor is disclosed, which includes a substrate containing a sensing element, wherein the substrate is located proximate to a sleeve portion which covers and protects the sensing element. The vapor sensor also includes a vapor filter or permeable membrane affixed to an end of the sleeve portion, wherein the end of the sleeve portion is located opposite the sensing element. A housing and a cover are also provided, such that the housing retains the substrate and the cover snaps onto the housing. The housing itself includes walls from which a hole is formed through which vapors may pass. The vapor sensor can be mounted to a gas water heater in such a manner as to reduce air flow to the sensing element and prevent tampering of the vapor sensor unit itself.
