Abstract: L'invention concerne un transducteur à masse flottante utilisé comme prothèse auditive chez une personne. La vibration inertielle du transducteur (100) à masse flottante produit des vibrations dans l'oreille interne. Dans une forme d'exécution donnée à titre d'exemple, le transducteur à masse flottante comprend un système d'aimant (12) et de bobine (14) logés à l'intérieur d'un logement (10) qui est fixé à l'os de l'oreille moyenne. La bobine est fixée plus rigidement au logement que l'aimant. Le système d'aimant et de bobine est constitué de manière à ce que le passage d'un courant alternatif dans la bobine provoque la vibration de l'aimant et de la bobine l'un par rapport à l'autre. La vibration est provoquée par l'interaction des champs magnétiques de l'aimant et de la bobine. Comme la bobine est tenue plus rigidement au logement que l'aimant, les vibrations de la bobine provoquent la vibration du logement. Le transducteur à masse flottante peut générer des vibrations dans l'oreille interne en étant fixé au crâne ou par un microphone.

Abstract: A hydraulic closing unit has a ring-shaped hydraulic cylinder that generates a closing force, a locking bushing, an assisted drive for swivelling the locking bushing from a first angular position to a second angular position, and a pressure bar that extends through the hydraulic cylinder and the locking bushing in the axial direction. Outer teeth on the pressure bar and inner teeth in the locking bushing allow the pressure bar to be axially pushed through the locking bushing in the first angular position of the locking bushing, and an axial force to be transmitted in the second angular position of the locking bushing. The hydraulic cylinder is designed as a double action, ring-shaped compression cylinder. The piston of the hydraulic cylinder is secured against rotation and screwed by a rotary thread into the rotary locking bushing.

Abstract: The description relates to a control circuit for recording the actuation of an optical key, in which there is a light-sensitive diode operated in open circuit as a key actuation sensor. A microprocessor circuit monitors the no-load voltage of the diode to differentiate an actuation of the optical key from variations in the brightness of the ambient light. The invention is characterized by an easily producible voltage-time-conversion process for monitoring the no-load voltage. To this end, there is a capacitor connected to the diode which assumes a load operating status corresponding to the no-load voltage of the diode and can be discharged in a discharge operating status via a discharge resistor, where the microprocessor circuit has a high-resistance input port connected to the capacitor to monitor the capacitor discharge and, as a measure of the no-load voltage, determines the time elapsing until the voltage at the input port during the capacitor discharge process reaches a predetermined input port switching threshold.

Fluid injection is determined by light beam counting of fluid droplets at the mist oiler. Number of drops related to a set time period, are used as a time-dependent measuring value n=f(t). This is compared to set max. values in a logic unit, and a compensation signal is generated when max. resp. min. values are exceeded.
