The stop device comprises at least one support element (18a; 18b), which can be provided at least on a first side of the shaft (16a; 16b), and at least one curved depth stop element (20a; 20b), which runs at least substantially in a curve parallel to the cutting edge (14a; 14b) in an installed state and is designed to limit the cutting depth (22a; 22b) of the cutting edge (14a; 14b) of the tool (12a; 12b) into a workpiece. According to the invention, the support element (18a; 18b) has at least one additional depth stop element (24a; 24b), which is designed to support a force acting on the depth stop element (20a; 20b), in particular on the shaft (16a; 16b). At least the depth stop element (20a; 20b) and the additional depth stop element (24a; 24b) can be positioned completely within a shaft region of the tool (12a; 12b).
The invention relates to a temperature-control assembly (1) having a heat source (3) and a heat sink (5), wherein the heat source (3) absorbs heat from a magnetocaloric circuit (10) via a heat exchanger (18) and releases same to the outside, and the heat sink (5) releases heat absorbed from the outside to the magnetocaloric circuit (10) via a heat exchanger (18). The magnetocaloric circuit (10) comprises a closed channel system (14) for conducting a magnetocaloric medium (12), one of the heat exchangers (18) is designed as a heat exchanger (18A) into which a magnet device (16) and a magnetohydrodynamic pump module (20) are at least partly integrated, said pump module comprising an electrode device (22) which conducts an electric current through the magnetocaloric medium (12) at a channel portion (15) of the channel (14A) such that a Lorentz force is produced by the interaction with a magnetic field generated by the magnet device (16), said Lorentz force controlledly accelerating the magnetocaloric medium (12), and a resulting pressure build-up brings about a desired volume flow of the magnetocaloric medium (12) through the channel (14A), said magnetocaloric medium (12) being heated upon entering the magnetic field and cooled upon exiting the magnetic field.
The invention relates to a method (500) for carrying out nucleic acid amplification, in particular an isothermal nucleic acid amplification, using a microfluidic device (100), in particular using a PCR architecture (101, 102).
Proposed is an interface device (10) for a communication link between a construction site robot device (32) and a power tool unit (42), at least for automatically controlling the power tool unit (42).
The invention relates to a method for carrying out parallel nucleic acid amplifications, in particular parallel polymerase chain reactions, using a microfluidic device (100).
