The bracket body and/or the at least one bracket flange connect to a suspension portion of said seat assembly.

Abstract: An optical element held in a holder has a first optical surface which has no rotational symmetry with regard to its imaging axis. The holder has at least one reference element, which defines a position and/or orientation of the holder in a predefined coordinate system which compensates for a difference between an actual pose of the first optical surface and a target pose of the first optical surface in the holder at least in one degree of freedom. The reference element defines at least one specific azimuthal position of the holder. Also provided is a method for adjusting the holder of an optical element that has at least a first optical surface, which has no rotational symmetry with regard to its imaging axis, to a difference between an actual pose of the first optical surface and a target pose of the first optical surface in the holder.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for presenting graphical user interfaces comprising multiple components interrelated such that inputs received in one component of a graphical user interface render automatic and corresponding updates for another component of the graphical user interface. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of presenting a graphical user interface; and receiving user input of one or more parameters, the graphical user interface including a calendar portion and an associated graphical portion, the calendar portion comprising a date box for each date in a range of dates, and the graphical portion specifying non-date parameters for trips beginning on each date of the range of dates. A change in the calendar portion of the graphical user interface automatically renders a corresponding change in the graphical portion of the graphical user interface.

Abstract: A measuring assembly for detecting the wall thickness of a pipe, including an ultrasonic probe and a testing head with a main element which receives an ultrasonic probe and the lower face of which defines a main element support surface is provided. The testing head has two wing elements, the lower face of each of which defines a wing element support surface and which are held on the main element in a pivotal manner about pivot axes extending substantially parallel to one another in a longitudinal direction such that the wing element support surfaces can be moved towards each other and away from each other. The wing elements are connected via synchronizing means such that the pivotal movements of the wing elements about the corresponding pivot axes are carried out in a synchronous manner. An associated method is also provided.

Abstract: A computerized watch is described that receives, from an application that is currently executing, information about a user controllable operation being performed by the application. The computerized watch automatically generates a dynamic control element associated with the user controllable operations being performed by the application. The dynamic control element includes: a first portion that presents at least a subset of the information about the user controllable operation being performed by the application, and a second portion that obtains user input that controls the user controllable operation. The computerized watch outputs, for display, a user interface that includes: the dynamic control element, and one or more static control elements that control other operations being performed by the computerized watch.

Abstract: A method for operating a cooling system for a vehicle, for example a rail vehicle, may include circulating a coolant in a first cooling circuit and in a second cooling circuit. A first heat source to be cooled may be arranged in the first cooling circuit and a second heat source to be cooled may be arranged in the second cooling circuit. The coolant may be circulated by pumping the coolant in the first cooling circuit via a first pumping device, and pumping the coolant in the second coolant circuit via a second pumping device. The first pumping device and the second pumping device may each be operated in a normal mode. The method may further include cooling the coolant via at least one cooling element arranged in at least one of the first cooling circuit and the second cooling circuit.
