A motor casing and a combination of a motor casing and a plug connection, the motor casing being designed for a drive of movable components of a vehicle, in particular sunroofs, blinds or roofs of convertible. A plug is inserted in the motor casing and a gap is provided between the motor casing and the plug connection. According to the disclosure, at least one projection is provided in the area of the gap and avoids play between the motor casing and the plug connection.

Threshold sensor with RFID communication ability

A differential pressure sensor with wireless RFID communication ability senses and records a specified differential pressure threshold without great energy consumption and without requiring direct access or visual inspection of the sensing element. The differential pressure sensor includes a sensing element sensing a differential pressure between a low pressure side and a high pressure side and a RFID tag comprising a tag antenna, a tag integrated circuit (IC) and a tamper loop connected to the tag IC for tracking a specific differential pressure threshold of the differential pressure sensor. The RFID tag is connected to the sensing element in such a way that the tamper loop is triggered if the specific differential pressure threshold has been reached.

Differential pressure sensor with RFID tag

An RFID transponder antenna has a carrier substrate and an auxiliary substrate. The carrier substrate is provided with a contact point for a first connection to an integrated circuit, and a first conductor path including at least two coil turns. A first end of the path forms a contact terminal for a second connection to the integrated circuit. The other end forms a connection point for an electrical connection to a second conductor path. The second path on the auxiliary substrate forms a bridge over the coil turns. The second conductor path has one end connected to the contact point, and another end connected to the connection point providing a permanent connection between the auxiliary substrate and/or the first conductor path, and the carrier substrate and/or second conductor path; the permanent connection being formed at least at one point lying between both ends of the auxiliary substrate.

RFID transponder antenna

A method is provided for producing an arrangement, which, for example, may be used for further processing into a non-contact chip card or an identification document and which comprises a multi-layer structure, with a first part of an RFID antenna, at least comprising a coil-shaped antenna structure and a connecting structure, being arranged on a carrier layer and the chip being directly mounted on this part of the antenna structure and contacted, with a compensation layer being arranged thereabove, which in the area of the chip comprises an embedding opening and which comprises at least two contacting openings in the intersection area of the first part of the RFID antenna with a bridge structure, which is located on a cover layer, and subsequently the individual layers being connected to each other via lamination.
