The switchgear is characterized in that the insulation medium with a dielectric compound having a boiling point of above −25° C.

A hand-held power tool includes: a housing and a rechargeable battery pack. A housing interface unit of the housing cooperates with a rechargeable battery pack interface unit of the rechargeable battery pack to provide a mechanical and electrical connection between the hand-held power tool and the rechargeable battery pack. The rechargeable battery pack interface unit includes a locking element, and the housing interface unit includes a contact plate having at least one contact element configured for the electrical contacting with countercontact elements of the rechargeable battery pack. The contact plate represents a component which is detachably connected to the housing, and the contact plate also includes a retaining element for additional fixing of the rechargeable battery pack interface unit to the contact plate.

A multi-zone daylight harvesting method and apparatus having a closed loop system utilizing a single light sensor is disclosed herein. This light control system includes an ambient light sensor connected to a detection circuit for detecting the amount of ambient light within a given zone and converting the light signal to an digital one. A control device couples to receive a predetermined rate of change for each respective zone from a storage unit along with the converted digital signal. The control device connects each zone of a plurality of electrical loads to control the power supplied to the electrical load at the predetermined corresponding rate of change and responsive to the amount of ambient light detected.

The invention concerns a work carrier changeover device for machine tools, with a work carrier transfer device for moving the work carrier (16) between a machining station (15) and a tooling station (21). The work carrier transfer device has a coupling element (25) rotatable around a vertical axis and two opposing coupling points (26, 27) for the coupling of work carriers (16). The coupling element (25) is pivotably mounted at free end section of a swivel arm (24) capable of swivelling around a vertical axis.

The invention is directed to a rubber mount for supporting a profile rod, and more particularly to a rubber mount for supporting a stabilizer of an automobile. It is the object of the invention to provide a mount of the aforedescribed type that can be installed on the profile rod easily, with only a few operating steps, preferably already at the manufacturer's site, and that has an simple and cost-effective construction. The proposed rubber mount includes an elastomer mounting body with an axially continuous slot which enables the mounting body to be pushed radially onto the profile rod for installation thereon. After installation, the mounting body can be secured with a clamping means (bracket), which according to the invention is formed on the mounting body itself. Stated differently, the bracket and mounting body are formed as a single piece, and the bracket is an integral component of the elastomer mounting body.

A pressure sensor having a pressure sensor element, the pressure sensor element having a diaphragm area and a first fixing area, the pressure to be measured exerting a force action on the diaphragm area, the first fixing area being connected to a second fixing area of a fixing element to fix the pressure sensor element, and the first fixing area and the second fixing area being pressure-loaded by the force action.

A valve arrangement for controlling a brake system, comprising at least one spring brake cylinder and at least one service brake cylinder, of a trailer vehicle of a traction vehicle-trailer combination, characterized in that said valve arrangement includes a 3 / 2 way valve which, as a function of the control pressure present at its control inlet, connects either its connection, which is connected to an outlet of a control valve device in order to generate service brake pressure for the at least one service brake cylinder, or connects its connection, which is connected to a trailer-vehicle-side compressed air supply, to its further connection which is connected to the at least one spring brake cylinder.
