The invention relates to a method for regulating the electrical voltage in electrical supply networks and / or consumer units and a device for carrying out said method. A regulating transformer (3) is inserted between a network node (1) in the supply network and / or consumer unit and at least one end user (2). The regulating transformer (3) comprises a high leakage impedance, which limits the ring current to the order of magnitude of the nominal current, in the case of a short-circuit between adjacent tappings (5) of the partial windings (4). The regulating transformer further comprises a transfer switch (7), to switch the partial windings (4).

An integrated electronic device includes circuitry for providing a system supply voltage from a primary power supply. The circuitry has a high power (HP) stage coupled to the primary power supply and having an output node coupled to a supply system node for providing a HP system supply voltage level and a HP output current such that the HP stage is configured to be active in a full power mode, and a low power (LP) stage coupled to the primary power supply and to the supply system node through a voltage follower for providing a LP supply voltage level and an LP output current such that the LP stage is configured to be active in a low power mode. The HP system supply voltage level is greater than the LP system supply voltage level and the voltage follower of the LP stage is adapted to switch off in response to a voltage level at the supply system node becoming greater than the HP system supply voltage level and to switch on in response to the voltage level at the supply system node becoming lower than the HP system supply voltage level.

A vehicle which is operable by a motor and / or muscular energy, in particular an electric bicycle, which includes an electric motor, a crankshaft drive having a first crank, a second crank, and a crankshaft, a torque sensor for detecting a torque applied by a rider at the crankshaft drive, and a control unit, which is set up to actuate the electric motor based on at least the values acquired by the torque sensor to drive the vehicle, the torque sensor being situated at the crankshaft drive and the torque sensor including at least one surface acoustic wave sensor.

The force or pressure sensor array of the present invention effectively has both flexibility and elasticity. Since the substrate itself is a kind of a polymer material, the substrate can be bent or expanded. Although silicon, which is a material of the semiconductor strain gauge, is easily broken and solid, mechanical flexibility can be secured if it is fabricated extremely thin. To this end, particularly, disclosed is a flexible force or pressure sensor array using semiconductor strain gauges 110, the sensor array comprising: a substrate 10 including: the semiconductor strain gauges 110 in which a plurality of elements formed in a certain array pattern is deformed by force or pressure, a pair of polymer film layers 120 and 130 having film surfaces contacted facing each other and containing the semiconductor strain gauge 110 between the film surfaces contacted with each other, and a pair of signal line layers formed on top and bottom surfaces of an insulating layer using either of the pair of polymer film layers 120 and 130 as the insulating layer and connected to the elements 111 of the array pattern to form electrodes, for fetching deformation signals outputted due to deformation of the elements 111 to outside; and a pair of elastomer layers 20 and 30 formed on both sides of the substrate 10 to contain the substrate 10 inside.

A portable appliance detects explosive materials. An indicator has a carrier and a plurality of indicator substances arranged in different regions to represent a location dependent pattern. The indicator substances are a thin layer positionable in an indicator area by a holding apparatus. A plurality of radiation sources emit quasi-monochromatic excitation radiation and are arranged at various locations in a radiation area so as to represent a location dependent pattern of radiation sources. An excitation beam path with a first imaging system images excitation radiation into the indicator area such that emission of the indicator substances is producible at the imaging locations on the indicator area. An emission beam path with a second imaging system images the indicator area into a reception area such that a pattern of emissions is producible depending on the location. Receivers receive emissions from the reception area and convert them into electrical signals.
