Sebastian Gortler has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Non-contact shock sensor
    Patent number: 7673513
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor device for monitoring accelerations to which an object is subjected. In order to detect whether a value has exceeded or is below a threshold for the acceleration to which objects have been subjected in the past, i.e. without having visual contact with the sensor, the inventive sensor device includes an acceleration sensor, which is permanently linked to the object to be monitored, so that a relative movement between the acceleration sensor and the object is prevented, and an RFID transceiver for non-contact coupling of electrical energy into the acceleration sensor and for sending out radio signals as a function of the physical state of the acceleration sensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 6, 2007
    Date of Patent: March 9, 2010
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Sebastian Görtler, Robert Kagermeier, Rainer Kuth, Klaus Ludwig, Gerhard Weller
  • Device for calibrating a magnetic resonance apparatus having a pet function
    Patent number: 7518363
    Abstract: A device is disclosed for calibrating a magnetic resonance apparatus having a PET function. In at least one embodiment, the device includes at least one marker that is visible through magnetic resonance imaging and fixed with reference to the device; at least one holder, fixed with reference to the marker, for a receptacle for holding a PET tracer generating a PET signal during PET imaging; and at least one receptacle for holding a PET tracer.
