The files requested by the mobile device are transferred when the mobile device has an appropriate authorization.

Abstract: An insertion device for surgical implantation of an intraocular lens in the eye is disclosed. The device comprises a plunger (200) which is displaceable within a sleeve (110) for guided insertion of the lens. The plunger (200) has a hollow portion (212), and a spring (250) is disposed within the hollow portion (212) of the plunger (200). The spring (250) is elastically compressed when the plunger (200) is advanced in a distal direction, thus creating a rearward biasing force for improved control of the insertion process. In an advantageous embodiment, the spring (250) may be pre-biased, and the spring force acts only in a final phase of advancing the plunger (200).

Abstract: A hand-operated injector for inserting a lens into an eye has a grip body (1) with a lens holder (13) for holding a lens, and a plunger (2) arranged displaceably in the grip body (1) for guided insertion of the lens into the eye.

Abstract: The invention is based on the idea of providing a detection device which is capable of distinguishing whether a microphone or audio signal processing arrangement connected thereto operates on an analog or digital basis. An analog or digital connection is selected in accordance with that determination procedure. Consequently there is provided a detection device which has a sensing device, a determining device and a selecting device. The sensing device senses an external signal fed to the detection device and forwards that signal to the determining device. The determining device determines whether the sensed external signal was transmitted by an analog or digital signal processing apparatus and transmits a corresponding determination signal to the selecting device. The selecting device then selects either an analog or a digital connection, in dependence on the determination signal.

Abstract: A device for inserting a lens into an eye has a grip body (1) with a lens holder (13) for holding the lens, and a plunger (2) which can be displaced in the grip body (1) for guided insertion of the lens into the eye. A ball-bearing bush (3) is arranged in the grip body (1), the plunger (2) being mounted so as to be laterally displaceable in this ball-bearing bush (3). This allows the device to be operated using one hand, said device additionally having good slide properties and permitting an at all times guided lateral or rotational movement of the plunger.

Abstract: The reflector for a light of higher power has a base body made of glass or glass ceramic and a protective jacket provided on the outer surface of the base body. The base body is formed with a receptacle for a light source, especially a gas discharge lamp, and an interior mirror surface for reflecting light. The protective jacket includes a mat or is a mat-shaped body, i.e. a woven or knit textile fabric of natural or synthetic material. Preferably it is a glass-fiber-reinforced mat. In addition to preventing splinters from flying around, the protective jacket advantageously also provides temperature equalization throughout the reflector. It also helps to prevent scattered light. The protective mat or jacket may be attached to the base body with an adhesive, such as a water glass.

Abstract: An intelligent vending system such as a pay telephone provides local/remote diagnostics, fraud prevention, capability of facilitating local coin overtime operation, complete cash box accounting, and detailed reporting. Information regarding each transaction is recorded and is useful in verification, by way of example. The system includes a delta-sigma driver for reducing circuit complexity and improving circuit reliability, and a one-wire, high speed communication controller which facilitates high speed downloading and uploading of data, records, and operating program code. Battery management techniques, memory management, and coin detection circuits add to the system's capabilities and reliability. Firmware security techniques and operating system formats also promote product firmware security and configuration control.

Abstract: A headset is provided which comprises a first microphone unit for picking up air-borne noise, a second microphone unit for picking up audio signals based on solid-borne noise and an addition unit for combining the output signals of the first and second microphone units.

Abstract: The invention relates to a microphone system. By this is understood a microphone, be it a cable-bound or a wireless microphone, having a system connected thereto for processing the signals recorded with the microphone. The object of the present invention is to avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages and to simplify the adjustment of an entire acoustic system of a building. A microphone system, preferably a wireless microphone system, which is equipped with a speech recognition system which is able to analyse the speech signals transmitted via the microphone system at least to some extent in accordance with predetermined terms, words or contents, wherein the recognised terms, words or contents are used to perform a control function of the microphone system and/or of the transmission behaviour of the electroacoustic system connected to the microphone system.

Abstract: In the method for coating substrates the substrates are placed in recesses in a glass-ceramic plate or plates arranged over infrared high-temperature radiators with the surfaces to be coated on the radiators. The substrates are heated from below to the process temperature required for the coating. Subsequently the substrates are removed from the heating device, introduced into a coating chamber and coated. The preheating device for the substrates has two glass-ceramic plates that are placed loosely on top of each other and infrared high-temperature radiators. Substrate receptacles are provided in the glass-ceramic plates by approximately coincident recesses of different size in the plates so that the substrates can be held in close proximately to the radiators during the preheating.
