Abstract: A safety switch arrangement with a safety switch and an actuator associated with it. Moreover, a locking unit is provided for, by means of which the actuator is locked in a latched position. The safety switch has an auxiliary unlocking unit that has a mechanically actuatable actuating element. An actuation of the actuating element is implemented only with a transmission element as a positioning movement for the locking unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a module interface with a device-side connector provided on an electronic module with a number of contact elements. They are designed to form a plug-type connection with several corresponding plug-type connectors with different numbers of contact elements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a functional module with a housing. The housing is comprised of a holder for a submodule. The submodule can be mounted in the holder in two different rotary positions. The submodules of the functional module can be simply mounted on the functional module as independent elements and replaced on it when necessary. This leads, in particular, to a substantial reduction of expenses for repairs, because only the submodule has to be replaced when there is a defect in a submodule, for instance. Different configurations of the functional module are realized with minor effort because of the possibility of attaching the submodule(s) in different rotary positions on the functional module; especially simple adaptation to different applications is possible because of that.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular arrangement with at least one base module that has a connection module on two different sides in each case and with at least one functional module with at least one connection module. The connection modules of the base module are designed to be rotationally invariant with regard to their mechanical and electrical connections, so a choice of the first or second connection module of the base module can be brought into contact with the connection module of the functional module by rotating the base module.

Abstract: A tool for applying clip fasteners which are bent around thin objects to tie them together. The tool has a housing that presents a load opening through which the clip fasteners are loaded. A retractable clip follower is urged by spring action against the fasteners to feed them toward a receiver having a slot for holding the fasteners one at a time. A jaw mechanism operated by a handle is moved toward a fastener held by the receiver and initially bends the fastener about two elbow joints. After a jaw plate carrying the jaws reaches the limit of its motion, continued movement of the jaw mechanism causes the jaws to pivot closed and make a final bend at a center hinge joint of the clip fastener.
