An elevator system includes a first and second elevator shaft, a first vertical guide rail disposed in the first shaft, a second vertical guide rail disposed in the second shaft, a plurality of elevator cars movable within the shafts along the guide rails, and a repositioning assembly configured to transfer the plurality of elevator cars from the first elevator shaft to the second elevator shaft. The repositioning assembly includes a repositioning track extending between the first and second shafts, and a repositioning carrier that is movable along the repositioning track, and configured to transfer the cars from a first repositioning position in the first elevator shaft to a second repositioning position in the second elevator shaft. The elevator system also includes an adjusting assembly configured to adjust the position of at least one of the first or second repositioning positions at least transversely to the repositioning direction.

Elevator system

A mobile operating table column comprising a base and a stability system for ensuring that the base rests securely on an uneven surface, wherein the stability system comprises: four retractable and extendable upright support elements arranged at four different corners of the base, as well as support surfaces and an actuator for retracting and extending each of the four upright support elements. Each upright support element is associated with a support surface and can be retracted and extended relative to the latter. Moreover, the stability system may assume at least two different operating states:

Mobile operating table column having an integrated stability system

An adjustable table column () for an operating table, comprising a column base () for placing the table column () on a floor, a height-adjustable column shaft () with a stationary column shaft base (), and a column shaft stem () that can be moved up and down relative to the column shaft base, a connection unit () for connecting a patient support surface to the table column (), wherein the connection unit () is pivotable in relation to the column shaft stem (), and a cable routing device () for carrying at least one power and/or data cable () along the column shaft stem () during its up and down movement, wherein the cable routing device () comprises an articulated push rod () which can transmit pushing and pulling forces. The upper end () of the push rod () is mechanically connected to the connection unit (), and its lower end () is mechanically connected to the column shaft stem (), such that the at least one power and/or data cable () adjusts its position accordingly when moving the connection unit ().

Adjustable operating column comprising a power and/or data line guide device

A table pedestal for an operating table, comprising a pedestal base for connecting the table pedestal to the floor; a pedestal head support that is adjustable in height for supporting the head of the pedestal; a lifting drive for adjusting the height of the pedestal head support in relation to the base of the pedestal; a cylindrical main guide connecting the pedestal head support to the pedestal base, and serving to provide a vertical guide of the pedestal head support in its height adjustment. An additional stabilizing guide, which also connects the pedestal head support to the pedestal base and provides a vertical guide for the pedestal head support in its height adjustment, reduces the play in rotation of the main guide.

Operational table pedestal with stabilizing guide

A holding device for holding a rotary platform of an elevator system. The elevator system includes an elevator car movable by way of guide rails; a fixed first guide rail fixedly arranged in a shaft and orientated in a first direction; a fixed second guide rail fixedly orientated in a second direction; and a third guide rail configured to rotate with respect to the shaft, and is secured to the rotary platform and is configured to rotate between an orientation in the first direction and an orientation in the second direction. The holding device includes a shaft mounting configured to secure the holding device to the shaft; a holding frame configured to at least indirectly secure the rotary platform to the holding device; and a first adjustment arrangement configured to adjust the orientation of the holding frame with respect to the shaft mounting.

Holding device

The invention relates to a device for retaining and moving a laparoscope during an operation, which comprises a securing unit for securing on a retaining arm, a receiving unit for retaining the laparoscope, as well as a main body. Furthermore, the device has a lever via which the receiving unit is secured to the main body. The main body is mounted on the securing unit in a rotatable manner about a first rotation axis via a first rotation unit. The lever is mounted on the main body in a rotatable manner about a second rotation axis via a second rotation unit. Furthermore, a first drive unit is provided, which, upon activation, drives the first and the second rotation unit in such a manner that the main body is rotated about the first rotation axis, and the lever is rotated about the second rotation axis by the same rotation angle in the opposite rotation direction.

Device for retaining and moving a laparoscope during an operation

The disclosure relates to a guide rail to guide the car of an elevator system. The guide rail is designed as a section with a cavity (-) and/or integrated cooling fins to cool the guide rail.

Guide rail for an elevator system and an elevator system

A guide rail for an elevator system may comprise at least two rail elements that together form a guide rail portion having a functional running track that extends in a travel direction. Each of the rail elements may be connected to a shaft wall of the elevator system. Furthermore, the at least two rail elements may be adjacent and spaced such that the at least two rail elements can thermally expand freely in the travel direction. Additionally, the at least two rail elements in a region of the functional running track may have mutually opposite borders that have complementary profiles. An arbitrary cross section of the guide rail portion perpendicular to the travel direction in the region of the functional track may run through at least one of the two adjacent rail elements.

Guide rail for an elevator system

The present disclosure relates to a car door for a lift car having a guide mechanism and a door leaf. The guide mechanism comprises in this case a sliding shoe, which is connected to the door leaf of the car door. Furthermore, the guide mechanism comprises a receiving part which surrounds the sliding shoe on at least three sides. The sliding shoe has, in a sliding direction, an extent which corresponds to at least 30% of the extension of the door leaf in this direction.

Car door

The invention relates to wiper device, comprising an adapter (), which forms a point of articulation to a wiper arm or a wiper blade () and has at least one form-closure element () for translational assembly with an additional adapter () in an axial direction, the at least one form-closure element being provided for the form-closed connection to at least one form-closure element () of the one additional adapter () in the axial direction. According to the invention, the wiper device has at least one actuating element (), which is designed to be deflected in order to deflect the at least one form-closure element () during disassembly.

Wiper device

The invention relates to a wiper blade adapter device having a wiper arm adapter () and a wiper blade adapter (). The wiper blade adapter device comprises a pivot bearing unit () which is provided to rotatably mount the wiper arm adapter () and the wiper blade adapter () in an assembly process relative to each other around a longitudinal axis () of the wiper blade adapter ().

Wiper blade adapter device

The invention relates to a wiper blade adapter device having a wiper arm adapter () and a wiper blade adapter (). The wiper blade adapter device comprises a pivot bearing unit () which is provided to rotatably mount the wiper arm adapter () and the wiper blade adapter () in an assembly process relative to each other around a vertical axis ().
