Publication number: 20230278153Abstract: Power tools including electronic safety mechanisms with supervisory circuits. The power tools include a motor configured to generate a motive force, an implement holder, and an electronic safety mechanism. The implement holder is configured to receive the motive force from the motor. Receipt of the motive force generates driven motion of the implement holder. The electronic safety mechanism defines a disengaged configuration and an engaged configuration. The electronic safety mechanism includes a detection circuit configured to detect an actuation parameter and to generate a primary trigger signal based, at least in part, on the actuation parameter. The detection circuit also includes a detection circuit controller, which is programmed to control the operation of the detection circuit, and a supervisory circuit, which is configured to verify proper operation of the detection circuit controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2021Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Matthias Dennis Kübeler, Ralf Fischer, Dorian Steddin, Philipp Daniel Korhon

Patent number: 10284032Abstract: A rotor for a reluctance motor includes a laminate stack having layers. Each layer has a plurality of flux-conducting sections formed in each case by a magnetically conductive rotor lamination and extending transversely to a corresponding q axis. The flux-conducting sections are separated from one another by nonmagnetic flux barrier regions. An electrically conductive and non-ferromagnetic filler material is arranged in a plurality or all of the flux barrier regions of the layers to electrically connect the flux barrier regions of adjacent layers to one another so that cage bars of a rotor cage of the rotor which extend axially parallel or skewed with respect to the axis of rotation are formed by the filler material in the flux barrier regions.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2013Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Klaus Büttner, Marco Cerny, Ralf Fischer, Matthias Warmuth

Patent number: RE47895Abstract: A method and a subscriber station for allocating rights of access to a telecommunications channel of the telecommunications network to at least one subscriber station (5, 10, 15, 20) are proposed in which information signals are transmitted to the at least one subscriber station (5, 10, 15, 20). With the information signals, access authorization data (45, 50, 55) are transmitted to the at least one subscriber station (5, 10, 15, 20). Upon reception of the access authorization data (45, 50, 55) in an evaluation unit (6) of the at least one subscriber station (5, 10, 15, 20), the question is asked whether the access authorization data (45, 50, 55) include an access threshold value (S), and the access threshold value (S) is compared with a random number or a pseudo-random number (R), and the right of access to a telecommunications channel of the at least one subscriber station (5, 10, 15, 20) is granted as a function of the outcome of comparison.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: IPCom GmbH & Co.
