They are the people who assure that Robert Bosch’s vision becomes a reality every day. Accompany us on a tour through our three hospitals. The ideals of Hospital Founder Robert Bosch senior are nowadays more in place than ever: claiming highest demands on knowledge and competences, careful planning and acting, fairness and mutual trust. An innovative foundation hospital The Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus is a foundation owned hospital which dates from a private initiative of Robert Bosch senior in 1936. Two other hospitals belong to the Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus GmbH, i.e. Klinik Charlottenhaus in Stuttgart‘s east districts and the Klinik Schillerhöhe in Gerlingen, a small city close to Stuttgart. Taking all three locations together, the Robert-Bosch- Krankenhaus has more than 1,000 beds and makes a significant contribution to the provision of healthcare services in the region. The Robert Bosch Foundation is the holding organisation of the Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus GmbH. Both the foundation and the hospital’s chief administrative committee decide together on the principles for the care of patients – covering medical and nursing issues. The foundation enables medical research and model pro- jects, which are not covered by public sources. Together this are key success factors for the ongoing high performance of all institutions of the Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus. 06 · 07 Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus (left) Klinik Charlottenhaus (centre) Klinik Schillerhöhe (right) Model for the Future: a Broad Spectrum The hospital of the future is complex and concomitantly close to patients’ needs. The patients have high expectations on the hospital of their choice. This is an incentive to extend the therapy spectrum for RBK patients and to enlarge the enterprise. The patients will thus always find a qualified expert for their healthcare concerns. And they can feel comfortable in the hands of such a consolidated and economically stable hospital business. The Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus (approx. 770 beds, Klinik Charlottenhaus (40 beds) Klinik Schillerhöhe (approx. 210 beds) 100 are in the Clinic of Geriatric Rehabilitation) Hospital of Gynecology, Obstetrics, Hospital of Pneumology, Chest Surgery and Respiratory Robert Bosch Foundation A hospital offering central care provisions, Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Medicine.

The transaction has been approved by the Board of Management and Supervisory Board of Bosch and the Managing Board and Supervisory Board of Siemens. The purchase price will total €3 billion. In addition, Siemens and Bosch will each receive from BSH an additional distribution of €250 million before the transaction is completed. The transaction, which still requires regulatory approval, will probably be completed in the first half of calendar year 2015. BSH will then become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bosch Group. Under the terms of the agreement, BSH will also be allowed to produce and market household appliances under the Siemens brand over the long term.

Electrochemical strain microscopy (ESM) was implemented both at a low-frequency (3.5 kHz) and in a high-frequency range of excitation (above 400 kHz). It was shown that the high-frequency ESM has a significant cross-talk with topography due to a tip-sample electrostatic interaction, while the low-frequency ESM yields a response correlated with distributions of Li ions and electrochemically inactive phases revealed by the confocal Raman microscopy. Parasitic contributions into the electromechanical response from the local Joule heating and flexoelectric effect were considered as well and found to be negligible.

At the outset, Bosch worked with two associates to construct and install all kinds of electrical equipment, such as telephone systems and electric bells. However, the company’s startup capital of 10,000 German marks was soon used up and they had to rely on loans. Robert Bosch invested most of the company's small earnings in modern machines. He later described his first years as a self- employed businessman as a “shambles”. The construction of the electric power station in Stuttgart in 1895 was one factor that helped the young company on the road to economic recovery by creating new jobs for its installation business. The second factor was the magneto ignition device, which had already become a linchpin in the company’s economic success. Bosch and the magneto ignition device Sept 7, 2020 In 1887, Robert Bosch had been approached by a customer and asked to Page 2 of 13 produce a magneto ignition device based on a model made by the engine manufacturer Deutz in Cologne.
