  • Patent number: 10194492
    Abstract: An induction coil assembly for an induction cooking hob has a coil winding, a lower electrically isolating sheet and optionally a thermally insulating sheet. The induction coil assembly further includes a carrier plate for supporting the lower electrically isolating sheet, the coil winding and the thermally insulating sheet. At least two power cables are provided for each coil winding. The power cables are at least partially arranged at a bottom side of the carrier plate and act as spring elements, so that the induction coil assembly can be pressed or is pressed against a glass ceramic panel of the induction cooking hob.

  • Patent number: 9666007
    Abstract: A method for processing value documents includes employing a storage device for data which has a storage area of pre-specified storage-area size, wherein value documents are transported in singled form to a sensor device. Respective value document measuring data are captured by means of the sensor device. A storage priority is established for the respective value document as a pre-specified function of at least a portion of the measuring data that is necessary for establishing the storage priority in dependence on the established storage priority processing data for the respective value document stored in a storage block in the storage area. The storage priority influences the duration of the storage of the respective processing data.

  • Patent number: 8196804
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for soldering components, in particular heat exchanger, in particular made of aluminum materials, aluminum alloys or wrought alloys, in a soldering furnace, in particular a continuous soldering furnace or a batch-type soldering furnace, which comprises a muffle, which is flushed with protective gas in order to create a protective atmosphere. In order to make the production of soldered components easier, during the soldering of the components the muffle is supplied with such a greatly increased amount of gas, in particular protective gas or reaction gas, that a low-oxygen protective atmosphere is created.

  • Patent number: 7901735
    Abstract: A method for continuously coating the inside of a continuously extruded hollow profiled bar made of elastic material and a liquid wiper and a device for removing excess coating agent from the chambers of a hollow profiled member. A hollow profiled bar is directed through a stationary supply of a liquid coating agent on a bent, arc-shaped track, whereby inner walls of the hollow profiled bar are moistened with coating agent, and the hollow profiled bar is guided along a rising track directly after running through the coating agent supply. Excess coating agent is wiped off one or plural inner walls with the aid of liquid wipers mounted inside the hollow chambers, the hollow profiled bar being continuously moved relative to the liquid wipers. The liquid wipers include at least one magnet or magnetizable material and a wiping lip that touches the inner walls while being located downstream of the coating agent supply in a zone of a sloped track of the hollow profiled bar.

  • Patent number: 7699153
    Abstract: A method for identifying suspected counterfeit and/or counterfeit banknotes paid into an automatic teller machine, wherein banknotes to be paid in are checked for authenticity on the basis of data from a sensor device. The identification is achieved by linking data from the sensor device concerning the suspected counterfeit and/or counterfeit banknotes to an identity of a payer. The method also includes storing the data concerning the suspected counterfeit and/or counterfeit banknotes and the identity of the payer, and generating checking data for the suspected counterfeit and/or counterfeit banknotes by means of the sensor device or a sensor device similar to the sensor device.
