Thermometers - Removed Bulbs
Dieses Rätsel ist von mein Rätsel Freund Realshaggy inspiriert.
Solve online in Penpa+ Thanks to henrypijames.
Verwende die üblichen Sudoku-Regeln.
Die Ziffern in einem Thermometer sind, vom kreisförmigen Ende ausgehend zu dem/den anderen Ende(n), alle verschieden und in aufsteigender Reihenfolge platziert. Die kreisförmigen Enden fehlen, und es ist Teil des Rätsels, sie zu platzieren. Kreisförmige Enden können an jeder Stelle einer grauen Linie platziert werden; falls das kreisförmige Ende an einem Ende der Linie liegt, bildet die Linie ein Thermometer, andernfalls genau zwei.
Lösungscode: Zeile 4, gefolgt von Spalte 8.

@Richard, is it possible that different branches of a given line can have same digits? The rules are a little ambiguous for me.

@Nick: Yes. From the bulb to one end all digits must be different, but on a grey line as a whole digits may be repeated. And they must repeat in some cases, since some lines are longer than nine cells.

@Richard, thanks. Once again I asked a silly question, sorry. There is a 15-cell line for god's sake, so of course digits can repeat on it. But my brain somehow deduced that on 9-cell lines digits cannot repeat (even if there are 2 thermos on such line) and the puzzle became broken very quickly :D

I solved the puzzle again myself to write a full walk through. I have to admit is was a bit trickier then I had in mind. So my apologies for that. Still I believe you can call this logical solvable.

Wahnsinnig tolle Konstruktion!

In the picture I definitely see a suitcase in a wheelchair speeding towards a Christmas tree. :)
I have to admit that I didn't understand the end and had to bifurcate, but the puzzle had some really nice logic in it. Thank you, Richard!

@Statistica: I am curious about that too. I didn't intend to draw a specific picture...

Nice. Can somebody see a picture in the pattern? ;-)

indeed struggled a bit to fit in the small numbers at the end. thanks.

Once more you can only appreciate this construction enough, if you tried to construct one for yourself. It is incredibly hard to disambiguate the small digits without using givens. Well done! I hope I find the time for it soon.

@henry: of course there is a fair bit of logic in the puzzle, but the solution path is really thight!
If I have time, I'll write some of the necessary steps in a hidden comment.

4+ star difficulty for me - think I missed some important logic.
