Abstract: An assembly of an electrical apparatus, having a housing part, a circuit board, an electrical circuit and a cover, which together with the housing part forms an electronics chamber in which the electrical circuit is arranged. The assembly has press-fit contacts which have a press-fit section, a mounting section and a contact section, wherein the press-fit contacts have at least one first press-fit contact, the press-fit section of which is pressed into the circuit board from a first side, whose mounting section is fixed in a wall of the housing part and whose contact section protrudes into the housing part. The press-fit contacts have at least one second press-fit contact, the press-fit portion of which is pressed into the circuit board from a second side, whose mounting section is fixed in the cover and whose contact section protrudes from the cover.

Abstract: An orthopedic device includes two components that are configured to be movable relative to on another (e.g., longitudinally translatable, pivotable, etc.). The relative movement of the two components is transmitted as unidirectional mechanical energy by means of a transmitting mechanism which includes an energy accumulator connected to a generator. The mechanical energy is thereby converted to electric power.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pump comprising a wall, which forms an enclosed fluid volumetric space and which can be moved by a first force in a direction resulting in a decrease in volume and, after a preceding decrease in volumetric space, can be moved by a second force in a direction resulting in an increase in volume. The pump also comprises an inlet valve, which communicates with an inlet valve, and comprises an outlet valve in an outlet line of the fluid volumetric space. The inventive pump has a compact design due to the fact that it is provided in the form of a vacuum pump whose volumetric space can be decreased by the external first force acting against an elastically deformable material whose restoring force, after the external force ceases, generates the second force acting counter to the generated vacuum.

Abstract: The invention relates to an orthopedic device (1) comprising two components (24, 10; 25, 10; 33, 35) which are mounted so as to be pivotable relative to one another. A generator (90) is provided for generating electric power. Said generator (90) is driven by means of a transmitting mechanism (50) which transmits a relative movement of the two components (24, 10; 25, 10; 33, 35) to each other. An energy store (70) is mounted in front of the generator (90), and the transmitting mechanism (50) allows force to be transmitted only in one direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pump comprising a wall (3; 21, 22; 31, 32, 33), which forms an enclosed fluid volumetric space (1) and which can be moved by a first force (F) in a direction resulting in a decrease in volume and, after a preceding decrease in volumetric space, can be moved by a second force in a direction resulting in an increase in volume. The pump also comprises an inlet valve (8), which communicates with an inlet valve (6), and comprises an outlet valve (9) in an outlet line (7) of the fluid volumetric space (1). The inventive pump has a compact design due to the fact that it is provided in the form of a vacuum pump whose volumetric space can be decreased by the external first force acting against an elastically deformable material (2; 21, 22; 33) whose restoring force, after the external force ceases, generates the second force acting counter to the generated vacuum.

Abstract: A method for the graphic presentation of the results of tests of software programs. The software program to be tested is composed of module building blocks and the software program can be presented in the form of a run graph. A run log was produced in the test of this software program. A critical precondition of the inventive method is that the software program to be tested can be resolved into individual program modules. The program run can then be simply displayed as a graph in which the individual program modules are connected to one another (by edges) in the run sequence. A test run protocol (trace protocol) is produced when testing the software program, this protocol containing particulars about the test run, i.e. the reactions of the program to be tested to the individual test instances, for example to the software modules (SIB names) that are respectively traversed.
