Abstract: The invention concerns an embolic protection device for inserting into an aortic arch to prevent embolisms. The invention moreover concerns a handle for such an embolic protection device, as well as a system consisting of a handle and/or embolic protection device and/or a catheter. Through the invention, an embolic protection device for inserting into an aortic arch, comprising a filtering unit and a feeding unit, is provided, wherein the filtering unit comprises a frame and a filter mesh, and the filter mesh is placed on the frame, the filtering unit has a proximal area and a distal area, wherein the filtering unit is designed in such a way that it can, at least partially, be positioned in the aortic arch, and wherein, once the filtering unit is appropriately positioned, haptic and/or visual feedback is generated, which signals to the user the final position.

Abstract: Embolic protection device for insertion into an aortic arch, with a filter unit, a frame and a feed unit, wherein the filter unit is arranged at the frame and the frame provides a proximal area having a proximal shape, which is arranged in an inner area of the frame and is connected to the feed unit, wherein the proximal shape has a first part and a second part, wherein the second part is formed at one end of the first part.

Abstract: A method of projecting a future condition of a business entity by identifying a plurality of risks and a plurality of opportunities for the business entity and evaluating at predetermined times a potential impact of each of the risks and each of the opportunities on the future condition of the business entity. Determining at each of the predetermined times for each of the risks one of a probability that the risk will come to pass during a predetermined period of time and a frequency at which the risk will come to pass and determining at each of the predetermined times for each of the opportunities one of a probability that the opportunity will become available to the business entity during a predetermined period of time and a frequency at which the opportunity will become available to the business entity.

Abstract: A protective device for protecting armored vehicles from hollow-charge projectiles includes at least one protective module that is mounted in front of the exterior of a wall to be protected. The protective module is moved out of an inoperative position, in which it is situated in a predetermined position, and into an active position, in which at least partial areas of the protective module have a greater distance from the wall to be protected compared to the inoperative position. The protective module can be constructed from a number of components, which can be displaced relative to one another and which, as a result of a displacing motion and/or pivotal motion, can be displaced out of the inoperative position and into the active position in which they are interlocked.

Abstract: An armored tank is provided and has a weapons station disposed on the roof of a vehicle housing that is carried by a tracked drive. The interior of the housing is divided into three regions, namely a front region, in which are disposed the drive mechanism and the driver's seat, a rear region in which are disposed seats for the crew, and a middle region that is usable for various purposes depending upon the layout of the tank, especially for accommodating a turret platform and/or at least one seat for operators of the weapons station and/or storage space for munitions and munitions delivery mechanisms.
