Abstract: A hot forming line for producing hot formed and press hardened sheet metal products made from metal plates includes a heating station and a forming station. The heating station has a bottom tool and an top tool between which a metal plate is received. The metal plate is heated in the heating station by indirect resistance heating. The heat is generated outside the metal plate and is transmitted by heat conduction into the metal plate itself. For this the bottom tool and/or the top tool has an electric resistance heating with at least one surface heating element. The surface heating element is a heating plate with a plate body made of an electrically conductive material, wherein the plate body is configured as heat conductor. For this the plate body is slotted and is for example provided with a slot, which extends over the thickness of the plate body.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle component and a method for producing a motor vehicle component having a metallic basic element and at least one reinforcing element made of a fiber composite material. An endless fiber strand of dry fibers is deposited here on a former, in a meandering manner around the extensions such that the two-dimensional fiber semi-finished product is formed. The fiber semi-finished product is trimmed and is brought into contact with the metallic basic element, wherein the fiber semi-finished product which is saturated with resin is cured by subjection to pressure and heat and thus the at least one reinforcing element is produced and is connected nonreleasably to the basic element.

Abstract: In a heating device for conductive heating of a sheet metal blank with varying cross sectional surface, the sheet metal blank constitutes a direct component of an electric circuit, wherein an electrically conductive compensation element is provided which is placed onto a surface of the sheet metal blank, wherein a sum of the cross sectional surface of the sheet metal blank and the cross sectional surface of the compensation element results in a current conducting cross sectional surface.

Abstract: In an electrical plug connector comprising an insulating contact adapter the contact adapter has a first wing which can be pivoted between an open and a closed position. The contact adapter is designed to enclose a metal contact element between the first wing and a wall of the contact adapter when the first wing is in the closed position.

Abstract: A medical device comprising a socket unit for connecting a plug unit of a device for providing medical fluids, wherein the medical device is in particular an extra-corporal blood treatment device. The medical device provides an automated connection of the plug unit to the socket unit by means of a connecting mechanism for establishing a connection between the at least one connecting piece and the at least one connector.

Abstract: A cosmetic apparatus comprising a self-adhesive cosmetic application guard and/or stencil provided, which comprise an upper edge, a lower edge, an extended flap, a front surface and a rear surface. The upper edge is shaped according to a natural curvature of a human lower eyelid. A texture of one or both of the front surface and the rear surface enables the self-adhesive cosmetic application guard and/or stencil to self-adhere to a users' skin. The extended flap enables grasping so as to avoid contact with areas of cosmetic application during removal from the users face. The front surface and the rear surface may comprise silica material, and may be glossy so that it firmly adheres to the users' skin without use of any additional adhesive product or material. The texture of one or both of the front surface and the rear surface a non-slip surface having a dull finish.
