  • Patent number: 9757089
    Abstract: In a method and a device for wireless data transmission between two parts of a medical imaging device that are moving relative to one another, at least: a first communication device has at least one transmission unit to transmit at least one radio-frequency signal, a second communication device has at least one reception unit to receive at last one radio-frequency signal, and the first and second communication devices are arranged at the different parts of the rotating unit. A directional coupler has at least two radio-frequency conductors; with one of the radio-frequency conductors being connected at one end thereof with the first communication device, and the other end thereof is terminated with a real resistor. The second radio-frequency conductor is connected with the second communication device.

  • Patent number: 8447010
    Abstract: In a device and a method for data transfer between a rotatable part and stationary part of a gantry of a computed tomography apparatus a broadband transmission link is used for data between the rotatable part and the stationary part of the gantry, via which both measurement data and operating data of the computed tomography apparatus are transferred. An arrangement also is provided for narrowband transmission of data of the computed tomography apparatus via the broadband transmission link. The data of the computed tomography apparatus are transmitted using a frequency spread method via the broadband transmission link.

  • Publication number: 20070062213
    Abstract: A storage container for a refrigerator including a container box with a cut-out on a visible side of the container box when the container box is mounted in the refrigerator. The container box includes at least one rod mounted transversely through the cut-out. The rod engages in drillings embodied in head pieces clipped on opposing edges of the cut-our. A spring element is arranged in at least one of the drillings which presses the rod in the longitudinal direction thereof against a stop in the opposite drilling.

  • Patent number: 7093453
    Abstract: A refrigerating appliance has a heat-insulating housing, at least one door, and an interior cooling chamber enclosed by the housing and the door. The chamber is cooled by the circulation of cooling air. A flow channel for the cooling air is mounted at the door. The flow channel is formed with outlets for the passage of the cooling air from the channel into the inner chamber and also to a plane of the door.
