  • Publication number: 20150284536
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flame-retardant mixture comprising (A) at least one polyurethane as component A, (B) at least one flame retardant selected from the group consisting of tallow, ammonium phosphate, ammonium polyphosphate, calcium carbonate, antimony oxide, zinc borate, clay, montmorillonite clay, metal oxides, metal hydroxides, organic phosphinate compounds, organic phosphate compounds, polyhydric alcohols, melamine compounds, chlorinated polyethylene, and mixtures thereof, as component B, and (C) at least one crosslinking reagent as component C, where the at least one crosslinking reagent is at least one isocyanate dissolved in at least one polyurethane, and also to a process for the production of a flame-retardant polyurethane, to the resultant flame-retardant polyurethane, and also to the use of a solution of at least one isocyanate in at least one polyurethane in the production of a flame-retardant polyurethane for increasing the mechanical stability of flame-retardant polyurethanes.

  • Patent number: 6776395
    Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable proportional valve (10) includes a valve part (14) with an actuator that controls pressure fluid connections, an actuator solenoid (12), and with a set of control electronics (16), controls the activation of the coil. The control electronics (16) are flanged mounted onto the actuator solenoid (12) or the valve part (14) and is thereby exposed to mechanical and/or hydro-mechanical vibrations. In order to vibrationally decouple the control electronics (16) from the valve part (14) and/or the actuator solenoid (12) at least one vibration-damping means in the form of a damping plate (18) between these components and the control electronics (16) is provided.

  • Patent number: 5176041
    Abstract: A control transmitter, especially for hydraulic valves comprises a housing, a switching rod which is arranged in the housing deflectably in at least two main axes, a ball pivot turnably supporting the switching rod in the housing, two control brackets arranged perpendicularly to one another and turnably supported in the housing so that the switching rod is in operative connection with the control brackets, a rotary angle transmitter arranged on a bearing point of each of the control brackets, a spring-loaded sliding body arranged on the switching rod and having an outer edge which slides over a conically curved contour of the housing having different raising portions.

  • Patent number: 4480202
    Abstract: A magnetic linear drive includes an elongated cylindrical armature which is supported for axial displacement in a guiding pipe made of a pressure-resistant material. Two axially spaced solenoid windings are mounted on the guiding pipe and are interconnected by a permanent magnet. The solenoid windings are provided with lateral magnetically conducting cores the ends of which communicate with annular grooves formed in the guiding tube. The grooves are filled with a magnetically conductive material forming the poles of the electromagnet. In the region of the poles, the armature is formed with control flanges of different depths which are acted upon by the magnetic flux to impart the axial movement to the armature. One end of the armature is formed with a measuring flange which cooperates with measuring coils mounted on the guiding pipe.
