Abstract: The connecting device includes a mounting plate, which are connectable to a sliding door by means of mounting screws and which is connectable to a carriage device. A connecting plate is provided that is arranged between the mounting plate and a coupling plate, which is connectable to the carriage device. The connecting plate is connected, shiftable in a first direction, to the mounting plate by first connecting elements and is held shiftable to a selected first shift position by a first adjustment screw that is connected to the mounting plate. The coupling plate is connected, shiftable in a second direction, to the connecting plate by second connecting elements, and is held shiftable to a selected second shift position by a second adjustment screw that is connected to the connecting plate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel composition or method of use for the treatment and/or the prevention of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPDs).

Abstract: The guiding device serves for holding and guiding a sliding door, with which a furniture opening of a piece of furniture can be closed. The guiding device comprises a guide fitting that is connectable to the sliding door and that is connected via a first articulated joint to a first end piece of a guide lever, whose second end piece is connected via a second articulated joint to a guide carriage, which comprises a carriage body that holds at least one guide roller, which is guided in a guide channel that extends at least on one side in a terminal channel section along a curve into the furniture opening.

Abstract: The invention relates to a scanning optoelectronic detection device (7), in particular laser scanner, for a motor vehicle, comprising an optical emitter for emitting electromagnetic beams, comprising an optical receiver (10) for receiving beams (9) reflected at a target object in surroundings of the motor vehicle and for providing an electrical reception signal (19) depending on the received beams (9), and comprising an evaluation device (25) for detecting the target object depending on the electrical reception signal (19), wherein the emitter is designed to emit a respective emission beam for a multiplicity of different scanning angles within an entire scanning angle range, and wherein the evaluation device (25) is designed, for each scanning angle, to compare the reception signal (19) with a detection threshold and to detect the target object depending on the comparison, wherein the detection threshold is an angle-dependent threshold value function which has mutually different threshold values for the recep
