The invention concerns a method and device for controlling a number of infusion pumps-, whereby each infusion pump (-) has an infusate assigned to it which is administered within a pre-determinable period of time assigned to it as an infusion at a pre-determinable infusion rate to a living being, whereby the infusion pumps (-) exchange control data for activating and deactivating the various infusions in a chronologically coordinated manner autonomously.

Apparatus for interacting with a medical device which is suitable for connection into a communication network which comprises at least one insecure area and a secure area on the device side, wherein the apparatus comprises a transmission device for transmitting communication packets to and from the medical device via the communication network, it comprises a monitoring device for monitoring the state of the connection of the device to the network, and it comprises a breaker device for breaking an existing connection between the secure area and the insecure area of the network if, during the monitoring process, a state of the network connection is detected which poses a risk to a patient treated with the device or to the correct functioning of the device.

Apparatus and method for protecting a medical device and a patient treated with this device against harmful influences from a communication network

The invention relates to sheet material having an electrical circuit and to apparatuses and methods for processing said sheet material. The present invention describes sheet material having an electrical circuit as well as apparatuses and methods for processing same, which reduce the effort required for processing the sheet material and/or facilitate processing and/or improve it and/or make it more reliable. For this purpose, the sheet material has at least one electrical circuit, with energy and/or data being transmitted from the apparatus to the electrical circuit and/or from the electrical circuit to the apparatus and at least part of the transmitted data being used for processing.

Devices and method for the production of sheet material

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for processing sheet material, in particular papers of value such as bank notes, checks, etc., wherein different groups of sheet material are processed one after the other, the different groups of sheet material being separated for processing by separation means. In order to avoid mixing of sheet material, it is provided to restrain the singling of separation means and bank notes until release.

Method and apparatus for processing sheet material

A method for separating and processing successively different groups of sheet material in a sheet processing device that includes utilizing at least one separating card arranged to provide an indication of a separate group of sheet material to the sheet processing device and at least one information carrier arranged to provide information to the sheet processing device concerning a group of sheet material.

Method for processing sheet material

A method for processing sheet material, in particular papers of value such as bank notes, checks, etc., wherein different groups of sheet material are processed one after the other, the different groups of sheet material being separated for processing. A container for each group of sheet material is used for separating and processing each group of sheet material. The separating means or container thus delimits the individual groups of sheet material clearly from each other. Designing the separating means as a container obtains reliable separation of the individual groups of sheet material. Since the different groups of sheet material are already clearly separated and grouped before actual processing, one can avoid mixups, misallocations and transfer errors as can occur with later, simultaneous grouping of the different groups of sheet material.

In a sheet stacking apparatus, in particular spiral slot stacker, one determines the relative position of a group of sheets A, B, for example distance t between the sheets or total length t of overlapping sheets. Sheet sensor is mounted for this purpose at a large distance before input point so that irregularities such as distance and/or overlap within the group of sheets A, B are taken into account and corresponding steps can be taken before leading sheet A is fed into stacker slot of stacking wheel . Depending on the kind of irregularity ascertained, stacking wheel is stopped, slowed down or accelerated to permit collision-free feed of the group of sheets into common slot or into separate slots . In special embodiments one influences the sheet speed by means of separately controllable transport path segments , and/or input point by means of control finger
