Abstract: A vehicle window with a primary window pane arrangement, a secondary window pane that is spaced apart from the primary window pane arrangement and a window funnel that extends between the secondary window pane and the primary window pane arrangement is provided. The vehicle window includes an intermediate space that is formed by the window funnel, the secondary window pane and the primary window pane arrangement, and the intermediate space is sealed and equipped with an air inlet for introducing dehumidified air into the intermediate space. Due to the seal, humid air leading to condensation and frost in the intermediate space is prevented from flowing into the intermediate space during a pressure compensation flow. The passenger comfort is enhanced due to the improved view through the window.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to the use of certain glycosyltransferase variants having N-terminal truncation deletions. Contrary to previous findings certain truncations were found to exhibit sialidase enzymatic activity, particularly a variant of human sialyltransferase (hST6Gal-I) with a truncation deletion involving the first 89 N-terminal amino acids of the respective wild-type polypeptide. A fundamental finding documented in the present disclosure is that there exists a variant of this enzyme which is capable of catalyzing transfer of a glycosyl moiety as well as hydrolysis thereof. Thus, disclosed is a specific exemplary variant of mammalian glycosyltransferase, nucleic acids encoding the same, methods and means for recombinantly producing the variant of mammalian glycosyltransferase and use thereof, particularly for sialylating in a quantitatively controlled manner terminal acceptor groups of glycan moieties being part of glycoproteins such as immunoglobulins.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved variants of T7 RNA polymerase by introducing novel mutations which lead to improved thermostability of the enzyme. According to the invention, amino acid substitutions at the positions Val426, Ser633, Val650, Thr654, Ala702, Val795, and combinations thereof are advantageous.

Abstract: An insulation arrangement with two or more insulation packages that overlap such that at least one overlapping region is formed and are arrangeable on a fuselage wall is provided. The insulation packages comprise an insulating material and welded cover films. The cover films are realized in an airtight and waterproof fashion and comprise ventilation openings on a side that is directed toward the fuselage wall in an overlapping region. In this way, pressure variations in the insulation packages can be compensated with relatively dry air that originates from a gap between the insulation packages and the fuselage wall in order to thusly reduce the accumulation of condensation water in the insulation packages.

Abstract: An insulation arrangement for thermally and acoustically insulating an aircraft fuselage, which comprises at least one insulation packet arranged on an exterior skin of the aircraft. The insulation packet includes dimensionally rigid foam, and comprises a shape corresponding at least with a structural component on the exterior skin, as the result of which the insulation packet is retained on the structural component even without any additional attachment elements. As a result, ventilation openings need not be provided, thereby reducing condensation water accumulating in aircraft insulation.

Abstract: A fastening system is provided with a wall ring as fastening device, a ventilator and a holding means, wherein the fastening device is provided in radial direction around the ventilator and the ventilator is connected to the fastening device via the holding means. The fastening device encompasses a first fastening geometry. The fastening system comprises the fastening device and additionally encompasses a holding device, wherein the fastening device encompasses at least one further, second fastening geometry for fastening the holding device to the fastening device. The fastening device and thus the wall ring axial ventilator can be fastened in a common manner to a unit via the first fastening geometry. The second fastening geometry serves to fasten the holding device to the fastening device, so that the wall ring axial ventilator can be fastened to a different design of a unit than a lamella heat exchanger.

Abstract: The invention relates to a radial blower, with at least one axial air inlet port (1) and with a radial air outlet port (2). The radial blower has a housing subassembly and a fan subassembly with an electric motor (3) and a fan wheel (4). The housing subassembly has at least one holding part (5) arranged in the region of the axial air inlet port (1) for supporting reception of a carrying part (6), and two shell parts (71, 72) releasably connectable to one another. The holding part (5) is fastened between the shell parts. The electric motor (3) of the fan subassembly is an electronically commutated direct current motor. Control electronics (19) are arranged in a terminal box (13) for the reception of motor connections (12). The terminal box is fastened, to the underside of a lower shell part (72) of the housing subassembly.

Abstract: A smoke detector with a transmitter (4) for a radiation that can be detected by a receiver (5), the transmitter (4) and the receiver (5) are to be assigned a monitored region (11).

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor housing for an electric motor with a stator as well as to an electric motor with a housing, whereby at least one multifunctional opening is arranged in the lower housing section and whereby electronics can be arranged in the housing, characterized in that, in order to cool the electronics, the multifunctional opening has a baffle by means of which an air flow can be directed towards the electronics, and, as an alternative, it has an offset on the side facing the upper housing section in order to mechanically connect the stator to the lower housing section.
