Abstract: A window lifter assembly for an adjustable windowpane of a motor vehicle has a guide rail and a driver with a connecting leg and two driver legs connected by the connecting leg. Between the two driver legs is a receptacle gap for the adjustable windowpane. The two driver legs include a first driver leg configured to mount and guide the driver on the guide rail and a second driver leg being elastically displaceable in relation to the first driver leg and has a latching element which protrudes into the receptacle gap. When inserting the adjustable windowpane into the receptacle gap of the driver the latching element engages in a pane-proximal latching opening of the windowpane. The driver further has a resting contour on which the second driver leg is supported as a result of a tensile force acting on the latching element by way of the adjustable windowpane in a closing direction or a closed position of the adjustable windowpane.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new biomarkers for assessing ovarian cancer being more sensitive, particularly at early stage of disease. Moreover, the present invention relates to a method for assessing ovarian cancer from a patient to be examined, and to a kit for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A head module for a modular control device includes redundant channel units, each including a processing unit and multiple failure revelation units. The head module includes a bus disconnection unit configured to shut down a communication bus. The failure revelation units are configured to monitor a state of the channel units. The processing units are configured to continuously stimulate the failure revelation units. At least one of the processing units is coupled to signal wires of the communication bus to provide a communication link to one or more peripheral modules of the modular control device. The failure revelation units are further configured to control, based on the stimulation and the monitoring, the bus disconnection unit.

Abstract: A heating device for a fluid line has a heat-conductive pipe segment to be flowed through by a fluid. An electrical heating element that heats the pipe segment is provided. An electrical plug connection device is provided, wherein contact elements connect the heating element electrically to the plug connection device. A fastening element attaches the heating element and the contact elements to the pipe segment. A plastic housing encapsulates the fastening element, the heating element, and the pipe segment.

Abstract: A stator for an electric machine has a stator block and at least one first and one second phase winding. The first and second phase windings are supplied with current having different phases. At least one stator slot is formed in the stator block. Several layers of the first phase winding and several layers of the second phase winding are arranged in the stator slot. One layer of the first phase winding defines a layer of the second phase winding in the stator slot.

Abstract: A safety switching device for switching on or off a hazardous installation in a failsafe manner has a failsafe control/evaluating unit and a power supply for providing at least one operating voltage for the control/evaluating unit. The power supply has a voltage converter for converting an input voltage into an output voltage of a defined output voltage value. The output voltage corresponds to the operating voltage. The power supply has a fault detector for detecting a fault condition of the voltage converter. The fault detector has a comparator for comparing a currently existent output voltage with a defined reference voltage. The fault detector provides a fault condition signal upon detection of a predetermined deviation from the reference voltage. The power supply also has a switch which disconnects the input voltage of the voltage converter when the fault condition signal is present.

Abstract: A flotation device for the separation (purification or removal) of dispersed particles in a fluid, in particular removal of dispersed oil in water. The device includes a flotation cell (1) with one or more nozzles (4) provided at or near the bottom of the cell for the supply of gas or fluid to the interior of the cell. The cell is provided with an inlet (5) for the fluid to be treated and two or more outlets (6, 7) for the separated products. The flotation cell is in the form of a longitudinal pipe (1), the diameter of which is basically the same as the diameter of the fluid transport or feeding pipe (2) connected to the inlet (5) of the pipe. The nozzles (4) for the supply of gas or fluid are provided at a distance along the bottom of the pipe.
