  • Publication number: 20260257868
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transport system for transporting objects, said transport system comprising a transport rail, which has at least a first running surface and a second running surface that are arranged disposed opposite one another, and at least one transport trolley. The transport trolley comprises a base body that is coupled or can be coupled to an object carrier for receiving at least one object to be transported, a first roller rotatably supported about a first axis of rotation and a second roller rotatably supported about a second axis of rotation, wherein the first and the second roller are arranged at the base body such that the first and the second axis of rotation are stationary relative to the base body and such that they cooperate with the first running surface, and a third roller that is rotatably supported about a third axis of rotation and that is arranged at a pivot arm that is pivotably arranged at the base body about a pivot axis.

  • Patent number: 8874401
    Abstract: In a measuring device, the measured data of a data recording component (10) are transmitted to an evaluating component via an output device (12). Parameters of the measuring device are stored in a memory (18). For the purpose of parameterization, parameters from the evaluating component can be stored in the memory (18) over a data cable for transmitting the measured data. To this end, the output device (12) for this data cable (Z) is operated at high impedance.
