  • Patent number: 10240587
    Abstract: A hydrostatic axial piston machine includes a pot-like housing, a connection plate that closes the pot-like housing, a rotatably mounted cylinder drum, and pistons arranged in cylinder chambers of the cylinder drum. The cylinder chambers are each alternately connected via a cylinder chamber opening to a low-pressure control opening and a high-pressure control opening of a resting control part. The control part has two switching regions located between the low-pressure and high pressure control openings. A piston reverses its movement direction in a dead center within the two switching regions. In the switching region, the cylinder chambers are connected via a connecting line to a fluid volume arranged in the housing. The fluid volume extends between the connection plate and the housing such that it is sealed to an interior by the connection plate and the housing.

  • Patent number: 9464766
    Abstract: A facade light having a housing for accommodating a lighting device, operating devices and terminals, including light-emitting diodes as the lighting device and lenses for distributing the light emitted by the light-emitting diodes, wherein at least two light-emitting diodes are combined to form LED clusters (1) and a lens (2) is assigned to each LED cluster. The light emitted by the light-emitting diodes of the LED cluster passes through the lens, which is configured in such a way that it generates an elliptical distribution of light. The housing is divided into at least two sections, the first section having space for operating devices and a second section, to the side, containing at least one LED cluster and each LED cluster being coupled to a device for dissipating the heat that arises during operation.

  • Publication number: 20160259630
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and apparatus for enabling sharing and/or collaboration on visual model-based applications. Visual model-based applications can be represented using an internal representation, which can be edited and read in a visual modeling environment, or using a visual representation, which visually depict the model-based application in a visually intuitive way. A model share server can receive internal representations of visual model-based applications and convert them into visual representations for display on a hosted webpage, or for display on an external webpage or document. The model share server can also generate visual representations in such a way that preserves key words or text for indexing by a search engine crawler, which facilitates searching of visual model-based applications.
