Abstract: A positioning unit and a method for forming an electrically conductive connection between an electrically driven vehicle, and a stationary charging station using a positioning unit, in which the positioning unit is configured to be disposed on a vehicle roof, a contact device of the positioning unit being configured to be moved relative to a charging contact device of the charging station and to make electrical contact therewith in a contact position, the positioning unit having an articulated arm device for positioning the contact device and a drive device for driving the articulated arm device, the articulated arm device having a pivoting device with a pivoting arm, the pivoting device being configured to pivot the contact device from a storage situation into a contact situation and vice versa. The positioning unit comprises a securing device configured to secure the pivoting arm in the storage situation in a form-fitting manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a marker body (10) for marking breast tissue for radiotherapy. The marker body (10) has an at least partly tube-like body (12) which is made from a soft elastic material and carries multiple radio-opaque marker elements (18). The at least partly tube-like body (12) is designed so that it offers hardly any resistance to an external, deforming force, but returns to its original shape in the absence of external forces. The at least partly tube-like body (12) has two free longitudinal ends (14, 16) which can be detachably interconnected or are interconnected, resulting in a tubular ring.
