Abstract:
A piston and a method for producing a piston which can be secured to a piston sliding unit is provided. The piston sliding unit can be moved along its longitudinal axis in a cylinder. The piston includes a disc-shaped base body, wherein the piston is suitable and intended to seal two regions of the cylinder filled with a medium against one another. The method includes the following steps: a) producing the piston by pressing a material into a piston mold; b) smoothing the surface of the piston and/or pressing at least one flow path into the piston, by an embossing tool, which has a raised and rotationally symmetrical structure.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for monitoring operating parameters of an actuator (10), wherein the method comprises: providing the actuator (10), providing at least two detection units (26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36) which are designed to detect different operating parameters of the actuator (10), detecting operating parameters of the actuator (10) via the detection units (26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36), outputting data relating to the measured operating parameters to an evaluation unit, combining the measured operating parameters into a state information, which indicates whether or not the technical state of the actuator (10) is in a predetermined standard state.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system comprising a seat (10) and a mobile terminal that are or can be connected to one another in order to transmit data, wherein the seat (10) comprises at least one electromechanical actuator (22, 24, 26, 28) and/or at least one sensor element (32, 34, 36, 38), the mobile terminal is designed to receive inputs from a user and control the at least one actuator (22, 24, 26, 28) on the basis of these inputs and/or to receive and process data collected by the at least one sensor element (32, 34, 36, 38), and the seat (10) and the mobile terminal are each provided with at least one communication means (44), which are designed to wirelessly transmit data between the seat (10) and the mobile terminal. The invention also relates to a corresponding method.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a piece of furniture comprising at least one adjustable use portion, in particular an office chair having an adjustable seat and/or an adjustable backrest. The present invention further relates to an adjusting assembly that can be used, for example, for a piece of furniture of said type.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a screw arrangement (10), comprising: a drive unit (16) for introducing a torque into the screw arrangement, a drive element (24) driven in rotation about a main axis (A) of the screw arrangement by the drive unit (16) and having an external thread (30), and a driven element (12) having an internal thread (32), which is in threaded engagement with the drive element (24). The invention further relates to a seat arrangement.
Abstract:
A modular system of driving devices that each includes a rotary drive assembly and a spindle drive assembly. The modular system includes at least two rotary drive assemblies and at least two spindle drive assemblies which are formed with coupling elements which are compatible with one another. The rotary drive of the driving device is received in a housing tube which is closed at its end remote from the spindle drive by a base piece. The base piece and the housing tube are manufactured from plastics material and are connected to one another by cohesive bonding.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a movement-damping unit (30) comprising a receiving tube (32) having a longitudinal axis (A), a relative movement unit (34) which is received in the receiving tube (32) and which is displaceable back and forth relative to the receiving tube (32) substantially in the direction of the longitudinal axis (A), and a friction device (41) acting between the receiving tube (32) and the relative movement unit (34). According to the invention, the friction device (41) comprises at least one switching element (44, 48) assigned to the relative movement unit (34) and having an engagement portion (48a) formed so as to widen radially in the direction of the longitudinal axis (A), wherein at least one resiliently compressible friction element (46, 50), which comprises a recess (50a) intended for engagement with the engagement portion (48a) and is arranged on the longitudinal face of smaller diameter of the switching element (44, 48), is assigned to each switching element (44, 48).
