Abstract: The invention relates to a space-saving isolating arrester, having for at least two electronic components (EB1, EB2) to be monitored, with the electronic components to be monitored being fastened to a carrier (P) using a thermally softenable fixing means, with an energy accumulator (D1,D2) being arranged on each of the electronic components which—when a thermally softenable fixing means softens—displaces the associated electronic component substantially parallel to the carrier (P), thereby disconnecting the associated electronic component, and also having a mechanically displaceable display means (ANZ), with the mechanically displaceable display means indicating that one or more of the electronic components to be monitored has been disconnected, and with the mechanically displaceable display means (ANZ) being displaced by a disconnecting electronic component.

Abstract: A method for operating a ground-based anti-aircraft system includes providing a group of main system components containing a sensor system, a tactical operation control and an effector system. Combat target sensor data are passed from the sensor system to the tactical operation control, processed therein and passed in processed form from the tactical operation control to the effector system, using the data to combat the target. A central integration module having a converter unit and a central data distributor allows differently constructed main system components to be connected. Data from all main system components are routed to the central data distributor by the converter unit and converted therein from component protocol into system-internal data protocol, and passed from the central data distributor to one or more main system components, through the converter unit, converting the distributed data back from system-internal data protocol into component protocol.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuse for connection to a protective component of an overvoltage protective device. A fuse wire runs between a first cap and a second cap. In some implementations, the fuse wire may be held on the first cap by means of a soldered connection and fastened to a connection electrode. The connection electrode may be movable with respect to a fuse body and under mechanical pretension with respect to a fuse body. The fuse wire melts when acted on with a high I2t, and the soldered connection melts upon external heating by the overvoltage protective device above a specified temperature by means of the thermal connection. Electrical contact between the first cap and the connection electrode is broken via the mechanical pretension if the fuse wire or the soldered connection melt.

Abstract: An inlay sole for shoes is made up of sole pieces of varying Shore hardness which engage with each other on abutting edges, the width of which corresponds to the thickness of the sole pieces, with matching sinuous projections and matching recesses. The projections form extensions which engage in backcuts in the recesses, the inlay sole being made of several layers of sole pieces assembled as above. The abutting edges are offset with relation to each other from layer to layer.

Abstract: A respirator shall be improved concerning better utilization of the carbon dioxide absorber (3). To accomplish the object, a transponder (5), which contains data on the type of absorber, the period of use and the current state of consumption, is arranged at the carbon dioxide absorber (3). A transponder polling device (8) at the respirator (1) reads the data from the memory chip (6) and an updated state of consumption is calculated from data on the operation of the respirator and stored again in the memory chip (6).

Abstract: The invention relates to an inlay sole for shoes, consisting of sole parts of different Shore hardness, wherein, at abutting edges, the width of which abutting edges corresponds to the thickness of the sole parts, said sole parts are interlocked with each other in sinuously conjoining manner by means of projections and matching recesses, such that the projections form extensions that engage undercuts in the recesses, the inlay sole consisting of a plurality of layers of thus assembled sole parts. The respective abutting edges are offset with respect to each other from layer to layer.

Abstract: A housing arrangement with at least two junction boxes, a base part and a cover, the junction boxes each having a square housing with a terminal strip for electrical connection of an electric cable or a line, and at least two openings for electric cables or lines. The housing arrangement can be modularly built and variably adapted to different requirements since the individual junction boxes can be mounted on top of one another turned by 0°, 90°, 180° or 270° relative to one another. The terminal strips are connectors which can be mounted in a junction box in any of four positions which are turned by 90° relative to one another, and the connectors of two junction boxes which are mounted on top of one another can be connected to one another with the plug part of one connector can be inserted into the socket part of the other connector.

Abstract: A junction box with a square housing and with at least opening and terminal strip for electric cables or lines. With the junction box, a housing arrangement can be modularly built from individual junction boxes that can be reliably connected to one another or to a base part. For attaching the junction box to a second junction box or to a base part, there are two pivotable locking elements on the housing which are movable from a first, open position into a second, locking position, and projecting ribs formed in the area of the outside corners on the housing, the locking element having a U-shape of which a U-bridge is used as an actuating clip and two U-legs, with ends which are bent down, and extend around the ribs on the housing of a second junction box or of the base part in the second, locking position.
