Patent number: 11959388Abstract: The invention relates to a turbocharger which contains a bearing device which is arranged between a compressor and a turbine and which is designed to support a shaft. This bearing device has a bearing housing, in which an oil-lubricated bearing for supporting the shaft is arranged. The shaft has a slinger element extending in the circumferential direction for centrifugally dispersing lubricating oil. The bearing housing has an oil drainage channel for discharging the lubricating oil from the bearing housing. The inner region of the bearing housing forms an oil delimitation chamber, which is sealed off by seals arranged between the shaft and the bearing housing. The oil delimitation chamber has a deflection means which is formed in such a way that, during operation of the turbocharger, lubricating oil that is centrifugally dispersed by the slinger element is deflected by the deflection means and is conducted in the opposite direction to the seals.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2019Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Turbo Systems Switzerland LtdInventors: Christian Kreienkamp, Florian Maurer

Patent number: 9897559Abstract: An X-ray diffraction system uses a two-dimensional detector to detect diffracted X-ray energy at a plurality of radial positions surrounding a sample location, the results at each position being combined to form a final diffraction image. To minimize smearing in the final image, the detector pixel intensities at each position are reapportioned among the pixel locations prior to being combined with the intensities collected at other positions. A two-dimensional pixel array space of the detector is projected onto a cylinder to form a projected pixel array space, and a virtual cylindrical detection surface representative of an ideal cylindrical detector is determined. An overlap between the pixels of the projected pixel array space and the pixels of the virtual cylindrical detection surface is determined, and pixel intensities are reapportioned accordingly. The reapportionment may include dividing each pixel space into subpixels and redistributing the subpixels among adjacent pixels.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2015Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Inventors: Bob Baoping He, Olaf Meding, Christian Maurer, Christoph Ollinger
