Abstract: An insulating unit for an electric machine with hairpin winding. The hairpin winding has a plurality of connection pins for electrically connecting to an interconnect and a plurality of welded hairpin ends. A base body is provided having an insulating material and extends at least over a portion of the circumference of the hairpin winding. The base body has a receiving area which faces the hairpin winding and which has openings for receiving the hairpin ends. The dividing walls are provided between the openings in circumferential direction, and the openings and/or dividing walls have fasteners for engaging connection to the hairpin ends.

Abstract: A coil with a distributed winding formed from hairpins that each have two straight-line conductor portions arranged in different slots of a coil body. Contact regions shaped in circumferential direction adjoin the conductor portions at one axial end and are connected at the other axial end through a turning region. The contact regions have at the end remote of the coil body a connection portion that are aligned in radially extending rows. The contact regions of a layer are shaped in the same circumferential direction. A portion of the contact regions of an outer layer is deformed in radial direction to form an additional, and these contact regions are shaped in a circumferential direction opposite to the contact regions of the outer layer.

Abstract: A coil element for a coil of an electric machine having at least two conductor elements extending parallel for arrangement in slots of a coil body and at least one connection portion that connects the two conductor elements to one another. The conductor elements and the connection portion are integrally formed. A bending position in a plane defined by the two conductor elements is provided only at a transition from a conductor element to the connection portion, and the connection portion extends in a straight line.

Abstract: A wave winding for an electric machine in which a quantity of coil strands are provided connected in parallel. Each partial strand is a plurality of hairpins. Two different variants of hairpins are provided. A first variant in the turn region W has a winding step WK between the conductor elements which is shortened by one and in a second variant of the hairpins the turn region has a lengthened winding step that is greater than the shortened winding step.

Abstract: A stator for an electric machine having an annular lamination stack with a longitudinal axis and slots extending along the longitudinal axis, at least three electrical phases, each of which has two partial strands, a plurality of rings connected in series to form a partial strand, a plurality of connection wires arranged to form a ring in adjacent layers of the slots, and a power connection for electrically connecting the stator. The connection wires are connected by pairs at a contacting side of the lamination stack for connecting adjacent layers at contacting areas. The power connection is arranged at the contacting side, and the connection wires are closed in each instance at an opposed contacting side opposite the contacting side.

Abstract: A turbocharger has an exhaust gas turbine, a fresh-air compressor and a bearing seat. A rotor shaft that is equipped with the turbine and the compressor wheel is rotatably mounted in the bearing seat by way of at least one radial bearing. The radial bearing is a floating bush bearing with a hollow-cylindrical floating bush body positioned between a bearing seat of the bearing housing and the rotor shaft. The floating bush body is provided with a defined imbalance in order to counteract an imbalance of the turbo rotor.

Abstract: A method of recognizing at least one moving anatomical structure using ultrasound data that operates by receiving ultrasound data (100). The ultrasound data comprises Doppler shift information which provides information descriptive of the velocity of at least one anatomical structure. The ultrasound data is first divided into a series of time frames (102). A classification is then assigned to each of the time frames using the Doppler shift information (104). The at least one anatomical structure is then recognized by using the classification of each time frame (106). This is possible, because different anatomical structures produce different patterns in the Doppler shift information.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of detecting acute renal allograft rejection in a subject as well as a method of stratifying a subject received a renal allograft and undergoing immunosuppressive therapy for alteration of the therapy. These methods comprise administering to the subject a probe capable of specifically binding to T lymphocytes, the probe being detectable by ultrasound. An allotransplanted kidney of the subject is exposed to ultrasound. The level of T lymphocytes in the kidney is detected. An elevated level of T lymphocytes in the kidney indicates an increased risk of renal allograft rejection and/or that the subject is in need of an alteration of the immunosuppressive therapy.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for producing a connection possibility, in particular for a sprinkler on a concrete or reinforced concrete floor, comprising at least one pipeline (1) that is connected to a first connection area (2a) of a fitting (3), a fixing element (4a, 4b) that can be detachably connected to a second connection area (2b) of the fitting (3), a box (5) that surrounds the fixing element (4a, 4b) in parts and that is arranged on a flange (6) of the second connection area (2b) of the fitting (3). Said fixing element (4a, 4b) can be fed through a casing (7) for delimiting the concrete or reinforced concrete floor and can be fixed on the casing (7) of the concrete or reinforced concrete floor by means of a fixing element (8) on its side facing away from the fitting (3).
