Inventor: BOLZ DETLEF
IPC: B05B7/00
Filed: 2004-10-21
Abstract: A device for producing an aerosol, comprising a liquid line for a liquid flow and a transport gas line for a transport gas flow, comprising at least one injector unit wherein the liquid flow and transport gas flow can be mixed to form an aerosol, also comprising an aerosol line leading to an aerosol discharge arranged in the region of a tool, is known per se. According to the invention, the injector unit comprises flow guiding means for the transport gas flow which define a pressure loss for the transport gas flow, which is lower than the minimum possible pressure loss at the aerosol discharge, by increasing the flow speed and reducing the volume flow. The invention can be used to supply lubricating agents to machine tools.

Inventor: BOEHNE GREGOR
IPC: G01D5/32
Filed: 2004-12-14
Abstract: A steering column switch system includes a device for recording the position of the steering column switch. The device converts the switching position that has been adopted by the steering column switch into a bit pattern. A decoding unit assigns a switching function to the bit pattern of the position that has been identified. Another device recognizes errors during the detection or transmission of the bit patterns. The decoding unit modifies the assignments between the bit patterns and the switching functions to be initiated as a function of the bit pattern errors.
