Abstract: A detection device according to a first aspect includes a first arm, a second arm, and a detection unit having two states as output. The first arm and the second arm each have a corresponding pressure receiving portion pushed by one of detection targets and are respectively rotatable about rotation axes as rotation centers along the same straight line such that the first arm and the second arm have different positions when the corresponding pressure receiving portion is pushed and not pushed by one of the detection targets. The output of the detection unit is switched to one of the two states in accordance with the positions of the arms.

Abstract: With a measurement method and a measurement device for the measurement of a path covered by a first object (1) in relation to a second object (2), a measurement body (3) is deformed by a relative movement of the objects and at least a first deformation sensor (4) assigned to the measurement body (3) converts the measurement body (3) deformation into a measurement signal. The measurement signal is converted by an evaluation device (20) into information on the path covered. In order to increase the precision and measurement speed in a way that is simple structurally and saves space, the measurement signal is emitted when an area of the measurement body (3) is stretched along the longitudinal axis (6) of the measurement body (3) and a further area is compressed along the longitudinal axis (6) of the measurement body (3).

Abstract: A centrifuge calibration apparatus (10) configured to be spun in a centrifuge and to provide an indication (25) of performance of the centrifuge. Spinning of the apparatus in the centrifuge causes a piston (14) to exert centrifugal force to compress a spring (22), thereby generating relative movement between a pointer (24) and a scale (26). The scale may be calibrated in units of G-force or RPM. A ratchet mechanism (40) holds the pointer at its most displaced position upon completion of the spinning and removal of the apparatus from the centrifuge.

Abstract: A lifting device that has a carriage supported by a chain which passes over a sprocket-wheel disposed to rotate about an axis and features an equalizer system that reduces variations in the measurement, by a load cell, of a load supported by the carriage. To further enhance the accuracy of the measurement, the load cell is designed to accurately measure the load placed thereon independent of the position of the load on the cell. The equalizer system consists of providing the chain and the sprocket-wheel with the dimensions necessary so that each link of the chain subtends a predetermined portion of the sprocket-wheel's circumference.

Abstract: A load suspension and weighing system for a removable reservoir unit of a portable dialysis machine includes a centrally located flexure assembly. The flexure assembly includes magnets and a number of flexure rings which allow for movement of the magnets about a fixed circuit board. Sensors in the circuit board sense changes in the magnetic field as the magnets move in relation to the circuit board. The magnetic field changes produce a voltage output which is used by a processor to generate weight calculations. The top of the flexure assembly is attached to the interior of the dialysis machine. The entirety of the reservoir unit is suspended by a first internal frame that is attached to the bottom of the flexure assembly. Having a single flexure assembly positioned above the reservoir unit provides more accurate weight measurements while also preventing damage to the assembly from water spillage.

Abstract: Accurate registration of the force of a blow delivered to a large-area padded target is achieved by supporting the target on a plurality of piston-and-cylinder units which are located outboard of the target outline. Resistance is provided by coil springs surrounding the pistons of the piston-and-cylinder units. Force is registered by a series of electrical switches operable by a stepped plate carried by the target. The switches actuate indicator lights through electronic delay circuitry which insures that blows, even though momentarily applied, are distinctly indicated.

Abstract: A brake cylinder of a motor vehicle, in particular a pneumatically actuatable brake cylinder of a commercial vehicle, includes a first housing part and a second housing part. An actuation tappet actuates a brake lever of a brake application device, which actuation tappet protrudes from a spring chamber of the first housing part. A membrane, which divides an interior bounded by the first housing part and the second housing part into a pressure chamber and the spring chamber, is provided, as well as a return spring for returning the actuation tappet from a braking position to a non-braking position. The return spring is arranged in a loaded manner between a housing bottom of the first housing part and a plate, which is arranged on the spring chamber side of the membrane and is connected to the actuation tappet. The return spring is provided with at least one elongation-measuring element.
