  • Patent number: 10845939
    Abstract: For example, in an embodiment, a method of determining user interface usage may comprise collecting, from a user interface including at least one data entry field, data indicating at least one event that occurs as a result of an action performed by a user on a data entry field and data associated with the user interface at the time of the at least one action, extracting, from the data indicating at least one event and the data associated with the user interface, data indicating an entity associated with the at least one event, applying an interval to the data indicating at least one event, the data associated with the user interface, and the data indicating an entity and determining an entity as owner of the event for that interval, and determining a duration of an activity based on a number of intervals that contain a given entity and action.

  • Publication number: 20060068117
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coating, especially painting, objects, especially vehicle bodies that consist of a plurality of initially individual and then interlinkable. While these objects used to be coated in a ready-assembled state and their movable parts were moved during coating by means of a robot or by hand in order to reach all surfaces to be coated, according to the inventive method, at least one part of the object is guided separately from the other parts on its own skid through the coating chamber. The coating material for all matching parts is taken from the same supply source so that the coating is identical on all parts. The matching parts is taken from the same supply source so that the coating is identical on all parts. The matching parts, during coating, have such a large distance from one another that all surfaces to be coated can be reached by the application devices without the objects having to be moved.

  • Patent number: 5944296
    Abstract: A supporting foot includes a form-stable ring which is applied onto the installation surface, and an elastic cable which is stretched in the ring. The cable is crossed at least once in a central region of the ring so that the apparatus can be installed in a central region of the apparatus foot on the stretched cable. At least one tightening screw is provided for pre-stressing and adjusting the tension of the cable. Deflection pulleys guide the direction of the cable, the pulleys being mounted in rotating manner in the ring. The pulleys define a course that crosses several times upon guiding the cable to the tightening screw.
