Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a test device (12) which is used to determine an error rate during the transfer of data (1) in a mobile radio system. Said mobile radio system comprises at least one transfer channel, wherein several data partial flows (2.1, 2.2, 2.6) are transferred. The several data partial flows (2.1, 2.2 . . . 2.6) are produced in a signal generator unit (8). A transport format is determined, in an individual manner, for each data partial flow (2.1, 2.2 . . . 2.6). The data partial flows (2.1, 2.2 . . . 2.6) are sent, respectively, to a number of transfer blocks which belong together (5.1, . . . 7.1). A device which is to be tested captures the transfer blocks (5.1, . . . 7.1) of the data partial flows (2.1, 2.2 . . . 2.6) and evaluates them. According to the accuracy of the evaluation, a positive or negative actuation signal (ACK, NACK) is sent back by the device which is to be tested. An error rate of each data partial flow (2.1, 2.2 . . . 2.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dosage system for setting a dosage volume of a flowable medium. The dosage system comprises a longitudinal axis, a dosage container for receiving the medium, and a dosage piston body which is adapted for sealed displacement in the dosage container between an initial position and a dosage position. In the initial position, the dosage piston body is fully inserted in the dosage container while in the dosage position, the dosage piston body has been pulled out of the dosage container along a path corresponding to the desired dosage amount of the medium. The dosage system further exhibits a draw-up limiting member for limiting a draw-up path of the dosage piston body in the dosage position, the draw-up limiting member being axially securable to the dosage container in one of several limiting positions relative to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A medical injection device has an injection unit and an anti-rotation device. Said anti-rotation device is non-rotationally connected to a port and connection portion of the injection device so as to surround the outside thereof in the manner of a sleeve. As a result, an intuitively usable and operationally safe injection device is obtained. When a protective cap for an injection cannula of the injection unit is being removed from the port and connection portion, an unwanted rotation of the port and connection portion relative to the container about components of a plug-in connection arranged therebetween is safely prevented.

Abstract: A medical injection device has a syringe. The syringe has a container for the medium to be injected and an injection cannula, which communicates with the container. A needle guard of the injection device can be moved between an injection position and a safe position. In the injection position, the injection cannula can be uncovered in order to inject the medium. In the safe position, a cannula tip of the injection cannula is recessed in a protective component of the needle guard. A securing device securely fixes the protective component in the safe position. The result is an injection device having a needle guard that can be manipulated intuitively and operated safely.

Abstract: A container assembly for recyclable materials mounted within a cabinet for movement between an extended position in which the open tops of the bins or containers are exposed for receiving recyclable materials and a retracted position in which the bins are concealed. The container assembly is supported for movement between its extended and retracted positions by a pair of drawer slide assemblies with supporting cross-member brackets being connected to the slide assemblies. The slide assemblies are mounted adjacent to a top of the cabinet. The slide assemblies interengage with brackets on which a door can be mounted for adjustment to accurately fit the opening in the front wall to form a closure for the cabinet in which the container assembly is mounted.

Abstract: The invention concerns a dosing system for adjusting a dose volume of a fluid medium. The dosing system has a longitudinal center axis (1), a dosing sleeve (3) with at least one communication opening (7), a dosing plunger (4), which can move axially in the dosing sleeve (3) between a retracted and a depressed position to take up and dispense the medium through the communication opening (7), and a retraction limiting element (5) to delimit a maximum axial retraction path of the dosing plunger (4). The retraction limiting element (5) in at least one position can be axially fixed to the dosing plunger (4) and can move radially to the longitudinal center axis (1) between an inner position, axially fixed on the dosing plunger (4), and an outer position relative to the dosing plunger (4). In the inner position, it is completely inside the dosing sleeve (3).

Abstract: A device for a method for determining the transmission performance of sub-channels of a transmission channel in a radio-communication system is specified, where data-comprising signal carriers are generated for the setup of the transmission channel within the radio-communication system and accommodated in the sub-channels of the transmission channel, and the transmission performance of the sub-channels is determined on the basis of the signal sub-carriers superposed with interferers. In this context, each sub-channel occupies a separate bandwidth sub-range of a total bandwidth range of the transmission channel. The bandwidth sub-range is disposed within the bandwidth at a spacing distance from other bandwidth sub-ranges of the total bandwidth range, and the interferers are limited to the bandwidth sub-range allocated to the respective sub-channel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a variety of an apple tree obtained by branch mutation and by selection of the variety ‘Golden Clone B’. The present invention variety ‘Golden Parsi’ exhibits an appropriate distinguishability, homogeneity, uniformity, and stability. The vigor of the tree is medium. The tree type is ramified. The habit of the apple tree is spreading. The pubescence on an upper half of a shoot is weak or similar to the pubescence in ‘Golden Delicious’. The thickness as measured by the diameter at the center is medium or similar to the thickness in ‘Jonagold’ for a one year old shoot. The number of lenticels is many for a one year old shoot. The predominant color of a flower is dark pink in a balloon stage. An overcolor appears early in season with a brown-red color. The overcolor disappears almost totally, and toward harvest increases and gets red. The overcolor remains red even after months of storage.
