Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus for heating and frothing a beverage product, in particular milk, comprising a steam generator, a compressed air source, an air supply conduit connected to the compressed air source to supply air from the compressed air source to the steam generator, and a steam/air conduit connected to the steam generator to supply a steam/air mixture from the steam generator into the beverage product.

Abstract: A beverage machine (1), in particular a fully automatic coffee machine has an adjusting device (2) for height-adjusting a cup platform (3). The adjusting device (2) encompasses two parallel, vertical toothed belt/chain drives (4, 4?), which are connected to one another in a torque proof manner at an upper/lower end via a shaft (5) and that the cup platform (3) encompasses two lateral guide carriages (6, 6?), which can be coupled to the respectively assigned toothed belt/chain drive (4, 4?).

Abstract: The present application includes a system and method that provisions at least two (2) receivers in a topology that allows each receiver to acquire wireless communication signals through different diverse antenna fields. Each receiver acquires the signal, and demodulates, decodes and sends data to the data terminal component. The data terminal component resolves packet alignment issues and selects the best data. This improves system reliability and reduces the system susceptibility to data corruption or loss of data due to signal fading that might occur on a single antenna field. Provisioning a wireless system in this manner reduces the likelihood that the same fading phenomena, resulting from either multipath and/or shadowing affects, impair signal reception causing data dropout or loss of data.

Abstract: In order to keep a spray nozzle (3) in a printing press spray beam (1) clean, air with a certain overpressure is supplied to a cover (5; 13; 24) surrounding the spray nozzle (3), the spray cone from the spray nozzle leaving the cover undisturbed through a slot (7; 16; 26) therein.

Abstract: A motor vehicle is provided having an A column, which forks in its lower area into an A1 column and an A2 column, in order to accommodate a triangular window therein, having a panel enveloping the A2 column, the spatial area between A2 column and panel being implemented as a flow channel, which is connected to a fresh air supply, the panel having a first air outlet opening facing toward the triangular window and/or a second air outlet opening facing toward a side window.

Abstract: A passenger air vent is provided for a cockpit of a motor vehicle. The passenger air vent includes, but is not limited to a nozzle which has adjustable blades on the air outlet side, a control element for adjusting the blades, a separate bezel for the control element, and the bezel and nozzle are formed as two pieces.
