A pressure plate assembly for a friction clutch includes a housing connectable with an abutment arrangement for rotation therewith about an axis of rotation. The housing has an outer axial side and an inner axial side. A pressure plate is mounted in the housing so that it faces the inner axial side. The pressure plate is rotatable with the housing about the axis of rotation. The pressure plate includes actuating sections which extend past a radially outer edge of the housing. An energy storage element is mounted on the outer side of the housing such that the energy storage device exerts a force on the actuating sections for urging the pressure plate away from the inner axial side. An assembly pretensioning arrangement is operative for holding the energy storage element in a pretensioned assembly position in which the energy storage device does not exert a force on the housing.

A method of aligning a pair of images with (101) a first image and a second image, wherein said images comprise a plurality of intensities corresponding to a domain of points in a D-dimensional space includes identifying (102) feature points on both images using the same criteria, computing (103) a feature vector for each feature point, measuring a feature dissimilarity (104) for each pair of feature vectors, wherein a first feature vector of each pair is associated with a first feature point on the first image, and a second feature vector of each pair is associated with a second feature point on the second image. A correspondence mapping (105) for each pair of feature points is determined using the feature dissimilarity associated with each feature point pair, and an image transformation (106) is defined to align (108) the second image with the first image using one or more pairs of feature points that are least dissimilar.

A motor vehicle drive train with a clutch device installed between a drive unit and a transmission having at least one transmission input shaft to transmit torque between the drive unit and the transmission. The clutch device comprises at least one clutch arrangement assigned to a respective transmission input shaft, where an input side of the clutch device is connected directly or indirectly by way of a torque-transmitting arrangement to a connecting end of a power takeoff shaft of the drive unit. The torque-transmitting arrangement has a radially outer connecting area for connection to the clutch device and a radially inner connecting area for the direct or indirect connection to the connecting end by the mediation of at least one positive connecting element, which connects the radially inner connecting area in a positive manner to the connecting end or to a component or assembly attached nonrotatably to the connecting end, and which secures the radially inner connecting area on the connecting end or on the component or assembly in the axial direction. The positive connecting element is located in a central radial area relative to an axis of rotation (A) of the clutch device, which area is essentially the same as or smaller than the radial area occupied by the minimum of one transmission input shaft.

A system and method for instrument placement using an image based navigation system is disclosed. A target of interest is identified in a medical image of a patient. An image plane is displayed that goes through a center of the target. The image plane has a configurable orientation. The image plane is used to select a path for an instrument from a position on the patient's skin to the center of the target. A trajectory plane is viewed from a tip of the instrument to the center of the target. The trajectory plane reflects an orientation of the instrument. A particular trajectory plane is selected that is representative of a desired orientation of the instrument. An image of the particular trajectory plane is frozen. The instrument can then be inserted using a virtual guide and is navigated toward the target.

A compressed-gas motor has a cylindrical inner chamber closed gas-tight at a first base surface, and a piston arranged so as to be movable along the cylinder axis in the cylindrical inner chamber. A first opening feeds a compressed gas into the inner chamber, and a second opening discharges a gas from inside the inner chamber. The openings are arranged in the cylinder casing of the cylindrical inner chamber, wherein the first opening is arranged between the second opening and the closed first base surface. The first opening is closable by a first piston part and the second opening by a second piston part. The compressed-gas motor has a resetting device which exerts a force on the piston in the direction of the first base surface of the cylindrical inner chamber if the second piston part does not completely close the second opening.

A cartridge system mixes and applies a mixing ware, such as, for example, a medical cement. The cartridge system has two cartridges that are arranged parallel to each other, and a mixing space having an outlet opening, wherein the cartridges each comprise at least one opening in the cartridge walls that connects the cartridges to the mixing space. The cartridges each comprise a feed plunger for expelling starting components of the mixing ware out of the cartridges through the openings, wherein a closure that can be shifted in the mixing space is arranged in the mixing space in a manner such that it closes the openings of the cartridges in a starting position and in that the openings to the mixing space are opened, at least in part, in a final position of the shiftable closure, wherein the shiftable closure can be shifted from a starting position to a final position. A dispensing tube for the cartridge system has, opposite from a dispensing tube tip of the dispensing tube, an extension with a diameter is smaller than an internal diameter of the mixing space, and which is designed to shift the shiftable closure during the insertion of the dispensing tube into the cartridge system head of the cartridge system such that the openings of the cartridges are open, at least in part.
