A system designs a thin and relatively flat microwave focusing lens that can produce multiple simultaneous beams, using readily-available isotropic dielectric materials, and having a gradient-index (GRIN) profile. The design optimizes the lens to achieve beam scanning and/or multiple beams over a wide field of regard (FOR) with broad bandwidth and a very short focal length compared with conventional lenses. The lens can be used individually or as an element in a more complex antenna having multiple lenses in various orientations that are independently switched, selected and/or excited simultaneously as elements in a phased array. The antenna terminal incorporates such lens into an array of lenses along with one or more feeds to produce single or multiple beams covering a broad field of regard for such applications as satellite communications on-the-move, cellular, broadband point-point or point-multipoint and other terrestrial or satellite communications systems. The lens and array design support multiple simultaneous independently steerable beams as well as null placement for interference cancellation.

A device for visually combining patient image data from transillumination and/or tomographic imaging methods with object image data comprising video images includes an image display device and at least one video camera associated with the image display device as a portable unit. A computer-assisted navigation system can detect the spatial positions of the image display device and/or the video camera as well as the spatial positions of a part of the patient's body via tracking means. An input device can be provided on the image display device, which enables inputs for image-assisted treatment or treatment planning.

An x-ray detector that is suitable for both imaging and dose rate measurement has a hybrid photoactive layer arranged between an electrode and a substrate. The hybrid photoactive layer includes a number of scintillators as well as a bulk heterojunction and is designed to produce indirect x-ray conversion. The bulk heterojunction absorbs the scintillator radiation to form electron-hole pairs that are detected electrically. The production takes place by a spraying process, in particular a co-spraying process of bulk heterojunction solution and scintillator particle suspension.

A panel for a domestic appliance having a rotary switch, the rotary switch having a rotary element, a latching ring, at least one latching element and a rotation axis about which the rotary element rotates relative to the latching ring, wherein the latching ring has at least one latching lug on its inner face, said latching lug projecting radially toward the center the latching ring, wherein the latching element is held on the rotary element and is prestressed radially outward against the inner face of the latching ring, wherein the rotary element and the latching ring are arranged along the rotation axis, and wherein the latching ring is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on the panel. A corresponding domestic appliance having a panel is also disclosed.

An electronic device structure and an ultra-thin glass sheet used therein. The electronic device structure includes a functional device and an ultra-thin glass above the functional device. The ultra-thin glass has a thickness of no more than 0.4 mm and also has a toughening layer, of which the thickness does not exceed 50% of the thickness of the ultra-thin glass. The ultra-thin glass has a total thickness variation of no more than 20 μm. The ultra-thin glass used in the electronic device structure according to the present invention provides quality assurance for subsequent potential processes, such as cutting, drilling, coating, screen-printing, laminating, gluing and the like, due to the toughening layer. Moreover, the ultra-thin glass improves functionality of the electronic device structure, in particular of the device, due to its small total thickness variation.

The present disclosure relates to a method for printing stock anti-counterfeiting by using a feature image and a corresponding system, wherein the above method comprises obtaining a feature code for identifying a printing stock by recognizing a first feature of the feature image printed on the printing stock; correspondingly searching for pre-recorded first anti-counterfeiting information of the printing stock in a database by using the feature code; obtaining second anti-counterfeiting information of the printing stock by recognizing a second feature of the feature image printed on the printing stock; and comparing whether a similarity between the second anti-counterfeiting information and the first anti-counterfeiting information reaches a first match threshold value through a manual comparing method or an intelligent device comparing method, wherein if the similarity is higher than the first match threshold value, the printing stock is true, else if the similarity is lower than the first match threshold value, the printing stock is false, and wherein the first anti-counterfeiting information is embodied as a distinguishable material feature of the printing stock in a feature image region or features of color, shape and position of the image printed in the feature image region.

A method for making a cathode of lithium ion battery is provided. A paste mixture including active material of lithium ion battery cathode and adhesive is provided first. Then the paste mixture is pressed to get a sheet structure. The sheet structure has a surface. A carbon nanotube layer structure is applied on the surface of the sheet structure to form a precursor. Then the precursor is curled to form a curled precursor, and the curled precursor is pressed and dried.

A manually guided implement having a tool and a brake mechanism for the tool. The brake mechanism includes a brake band that is looped about a brake drum. The brake band and the brake drum form abrasion partners that cooperate with one another during a braking process. At least one of the abrasion partners has a coating. The coating is provided with diamond particles that are embedded in a matrix that contains nickel. The coating is effected in a nickel bath in which the diamond particles are dispersed.

A jack-up platform comprising a deck structure, a column with a base structure and a jack-up system for moving the column and the deck structure relative to each other. The base structure comprises a base and at least three base supporting parts, while the deck structure, starting from at least three spaced coupling places, can be connected by a tensioning apparatus with at least three mutually spaced connecting places on or near the base supporting parts. Before the installation the platform, floating with pulled-up column, is brought to the desired location where the base supporting parts are brought into contact with the floor and the deck structure is raised out of contact with the water. After providing the tensioning apparatus and bringing the deck structure to working height, the tensioning apparatus is tensioned, for instance by slightly further raising the deck structure which is then secured relative to the column.

A mandrel-locking unit for a rotary printing machine has a mandrel-mounting element that surrounds print roller mandrels in an inner bearing for mounting a mandrel-supporting surface and into which the mandrel-mounting element can be slid such that the mandrel-supporting surface is released by the sliding movement. The unit has a pressurizing medium cylinder that provides the force required for the sliding movement and a piston, which delimits a pressure chamber of the pressurizing medium cylinder at a boundary surface and which is in contact with the mandrel-mounting element at a connecting point and conveys to the mandrel mounting element the pressure required for the sliding movement. A feature of the unit is that the distance between the boundary surface and the connecting point is smaller than the maximum stroke of the piston in the pressurizing medium cylinder.

A door handle mounting device for a motor vehicle includes a door handle mount with a receiving space and a closing device attached to the door handle mount which is accommodated at least in part in the receiving space. The closing device includes a housing and a cylinder core rotatably supported in the housing and an actuator that is non-rotatably connected to the cylinder core for actuating a lock of the motor vehicle. A return element which exerts a return force on the actuator retains the actuator in its initial position or returns it thereto. The actuator is adapted to be rotated against the return force of the return element from the initial position and to an unlocking position or into a locking position. The return element is disposed lying radially surrounding the cylinder core and outside of the housing.
