Publication number: 20080055924Abstract: An illumination system for producing light and for launching the light into a proximal end of an optical cable of an observation apparatus for endoscopy or microscopy has a light source having at least one LED. In addition, the illumination system has an optical light guiding element between the light source and the proximal end of the optical cable for introducing the light emitted by the light source into the proximal end of the optical cable, wherein a first end region of the optical light guiding element on a side facing the light source has a smaller cross-sectional area than a second end region of the optical light guiding element on a side facing the proximal end of the optical cable. Furthermore, the illumination system has a cooling apparatus which has at least one cooling body and which is thermally conductively connected to the light source in order to remove heat produced by the light source from the illumination system.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2007Publication date: March 6, 2008Inventors: Andre Ehrhardt, Klaus M.

Patent number: 7100950Abstract: The connecting element for transporting gaseous, liquid or solid substances include a tubular coupling which has on the inside a cylindrically running first recess, in which a corrugated tube is arranged, and which has a cylindrically running second recess which adjoins the first recess and In which an annular seal is arranged adjacent to the first recess and an expanding ring is arranged adjacent to the annular seal. The expanding ring has, on the outside, a first projection which points toward the coupling and engages in an encircling groove arranged in the second recess. With its projection which points toward the corrugated tube, both the expanding ring and the annular seal are in each case in engagement with the corrugated tube from outside. The subject matter of the invention is also the use of the connecting element as a subassembly in windshield washer units.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2004Date of Patent: September 5, 2006Assignee: Siemens AGInventor: Uwe Martin

Patent number: 5883643Abstract: An apparatus for printing on flat items during conveyance thereof in an item advancing direction include a perforated transport belt having a width, an outer face and an inner face. The outer face is oriented toward a first side of the perforated transport belt and the inner face is oriented toward a second side of the perforated transport belt. A cover belt is superposed on the inner face of the perforated transport belt for holding by friction an item sandwiched between the perforated transport belt and the cover belt. A drive moves the perforated transport belt and the cover belt together in the item advancing direction. A vacuum device extends along the outer face of the perforated transport belt on the first side thereof for pressing the item, sandwiched between and advanced by the perforated transport belt and the cover belt, with a pressing force against the inner face of the cover belt in a direction substantially perpendicular to the item advancing direction.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 1997Date of Patent: March 16, 1999Assignee: Licentia Patent-Verwaltungs-GmbHInventors: Josef Mok, Uwe Martin
