Patent number: 10313778Abstract: A method for operating an electro-acoustic system (11) arranges an electro-acoustic device (10), for occluding an ear canal on an ear and uses a signal processing device (16) for processing a signal incoming at the device (10). A correction unit (17) of the signal processing device (16) modifies the signal incoming at the device (10). To reduce, to avoid or to compensate for an interfering or undesired change in a perception of ambient noises during the use of an electro-acoustic device occluding the ear canal, with the correction unit (17), a signal outgoing from the device (10) is generated in order to achieve acoustic transparency, in which, on the basis of the outgoing signal, a received signal is generated at the eardrum which is adapted so as to correspond to a free-ear received signal at the eardrum in the case of a free ear canal without the device (10).Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2016Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: Carl von Ossietzky Universität OldenburgInventors: Stephan Ernst, Marko Hiipakka, Birger Kollmeier, Florian Denk

Patent number: 7259537Abstract: A polarity-reversal protector for power sources, in particular for automobile batteries, which is connected between a power source and at least one consumer and/or at least one generator, is described. The polarity-reversal protector is to prevent the reverse polarity current from flowing through the connected systems, so that the systems may not be damaged in case of polarity reversal. For this purpose, the polarity-reversal protector includes means for recognizing whether the two poles of the power source are connected to the appropriate terminals of the consumer and/or generator, and means for decoupling the power source from the consumer and/or from the generator if the two poles of the power source have been transposed during connection to the consumer and/or generator.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2002Date of Patent: August 21, 2007Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Henning Hauenstein, Richard Spitz, Stephan Ernst, Achim Henkel

Publication number: 20060143232Abstract: Suggested is a computer-implemented method for data management, in which method a service provided or to be provided by a service provider, such as the implementation of a customer order, is represented by electronic data on the basis of an information model, which defines a large number of different but related information objects (10, 12, 14, 16), by which the service can be represented. The method includes the generating of a large number of data records, which each represent one of the information objects. For at least some of the information objects, the data records each contain a time stamp, which represents the time of generation of the data record concerned. The method also includes the generating of several data records each representing a different version of the same information object, these data records differing from each other at least in their time stamp.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2005Publication date: June 29, 2006Inventors: Stephan Ernst, Markus Schumann

Patent number: 6320747Abstract: A method is described for producing electric modules, where a power module is attached to a fastening part with an adhesive, with the adhesive first being precured in an edge area, and in another step the power module is encased in a gel. In another step, the gel and the adhesive are fully cured together in one step.
