  • Publication number: 20240324974
    Abstract: The system includes a computed tomography gantry, a cart, a rail system, a rotary bearing and a lifting apparatus. In a translational operating state of the system, the cart is mounted to be movable along the rail system in a first translational motion along the rail system. The computed tomography gantry, the rotary bearing and the lifting apparatus are each held in the cart such that they follow the first translational motion of the cart. In the transitional operating state of the system, the cart is mounted to be movable, via the lifting apparatus, along a vertical axis of rotation relative to the rail system in a lifting motion, wherein the computed tomography gantry is held in the cart and follows the lifting motion of the cart relative to the rail system.

  • Publication number: 20240326555
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning system for a motor vehicle. The system includes a fresh air inlet, a movably mounted flap, and a water drainage channel. The movably mounted flap is assigned to the fresh air inlet and blocks an air flow through the fresh air inlet in a closed position and allows an air flow through the fresh air inlet in an open position. The water drainage channel at least partially extends on an outer side of the heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning system along a lower edge of the fresh air inlet.

  • Publication number: 20240198767
    Abstract: An air conditioning system having: a housing with a second fluid inlet, a second fluid outlet, and a second fluid circuit provided therebetween; a heat exchanger for the first fluid, at least partially encapsulated within the housing; a blower housing with a blower motor configured to accelerate the second fluid circulation through the second fluid circuit. The blower housing is at least partially encapsulated within the housing so that the blower motor is located at the lower level than the heat exchanger. The housing includes a filtering compartment located in the vicinity of the second fluid inlet. The filtering compartment further includes a filtering component, a filter fluid evacuation circuit for condensation fluid that condenses on the surface of the filtering component, and a second opening configured to evacuate the filter fluid from the housing. The second opening is fluidly connected to the filtering compartment.

  • Patent number: 11052695
    Abstract: The invention relates to a book production line and a method for producing individual books as well as very short and short runs of books. The book production line comprises a feed device and a following transport section for book covers, a feed device and a following transport and processing section with a rounding and pressing machine, an adhesive-backing apparatus for book blocks, and a casing-in machine. The rounding and pressing machine forms an upstream-arranged, first adjustment segment. The adhesive-backing apparatus is divided into at least two additional adjustment segments that successively follow each other in a transport direction of the book blocks. Each adjustment segment includes a separate drive and a number of book block positions which is the same for each adjustment segment or differs maximally by three book block positions.
