Abstract: A control device for use in the engine compartment or in the transmission of a motor vehicle. The control device has a housing comprising a housing section for a control unit. The housing also has a line section for the motor or transmission fluid. The line section is thermally coupled to the housing section for the control unit. Such a control device and a cooling arrangement therefore ensure that the electronic components in the control device are cooled such that a pre-determined temperature limit for the electronic components is not exceeded.

Abstract: A drive train between a rotor and a transmission having a torque support for a wind turbine generator system, comprising a rotor shaft extending from the rotor and supported in this area by a first rotor shaft bearing and extending to the transmission for converting the rotor speed into a desired generator speed, wherein the rotor shaft is supported by a second rotor shaft bearing formed in the manner of a moment bearing which is arranged on the input side within the transmission in order to receive the partial rotor forces, moments and weight forces and to directly pass them on to the torque support.

Abstract: A picture frame with a frame (1, 2) has clamps (6, 7, 8, 9) for securing parts (3, 4, 5) inserted into the frame, such as a pane of glass, a picture, a rear wall, etc. The clamps (6, 7, 8, 9) have a bridge (14) and a spring clip (15). On the inside (12) of the frame (1, 2) a projection (17) is inserted into a recess (13). On the end of the bridge (14) there is another projection (16) which is inserted into a recess (11) on the back (10) of the frame (1, 2). On the end of the spring clip (15) there is a third projection (18) which is inserted into a recess (23) on the back (21) of the rear wall (5). This enables very adaptable and reliable mounting of the parts (3, 4, 5) in the frame (1).

Abstract: A transmission, especially for wind power installations includes a planetary stage on the input side that is mounted upstream of at least one gear stage. The planetary stage includes at least two power-splitting planetary gears that are mounted in parallel. A differential gear that is mounted downstream of the power-splitting planetary gears compensates for an unequal load distribution between the individual planetary gears caused by their parallel disposition.

Abstract: A process is described for reducing the residual monomer content in a liquid solution, mixture, melt, suspension or dispersion of a polymer by postpolymerization with addition of a redox initiator system at a reaction temperature appropriate to it and with an extremely short mixing time of the liquid system in the production reactor by metering—gradually, in portions or continuously—at least one of the redox initiator components required to initiate polymerization of the residual monomers over a period (metering time) which is from about 10 to 250 times the mixing time of the liquid system in said reactor.

Abstract: A process is described for effectively reducing the residual monomer content of an aqueous polymer dispersion by aftertreatment at atmospheric pressure or above with an initiator system comprising a) a hydroperoxide, hydrogen peroxide or a peracid, and b) an &agr;-hydroxy carboxylic acid, such as tartaric acid, or with a salt thereof.

Abstract: A reactor for chemical reactions, especially polymerization reactions, and in particular a reactor for emulsion, suspension, solution, bulk and/or precipitation polymerizations, which has a stirring mechanism, incoming and outgoing lines and a removable lid, and where both the stirring mechanism and incoming and outgoing lines are installed on the reactor floor. The novel reactor is quick and easy to open and clean and permits simple and rapid changeover of the installed stirring elements.

Abstract: A process for deodorizing and subsequently cooling dispersions or liquids comprisinga) passing steam through the dispersion or liquid to be cooled and held in a vessel (1), said dispersion or liquid being caused to foam up as a result,b) discharging the foam from the top section of the vessel via a nozzle (5) into an evacuated separation vessel (4), the foam being broken in the process,c) condensing the water vapor formed from the foam in a heat exchanger (8) and removing volatile organic components at the same time, andd) returning the broken foam to the vessel (1),in which the steps a) to d) are performed until the dispersion or liquid has been deodorized to the desired extent, wherein, after completion of the deodorization (in accordance with steps a) to d)), the hot dispersion or liquid is discharged from the bottom section of the vessel (1) through the nozzle (5) into the evacuated separation vessel (4), so that the dispersion or the liquid is cooled, the nozzle (5) and the evacuated separation vessel (4

Abstract: A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a valve member guided axially displaceably in a bore of a valve body. On an end of the valve member toward the combustion chamber, a valve sealing face is disposed, with which the valve member cooperates with a valve seat face on the valve body to control an injection cross section. At least one valve spring that acts upon the valve member and is inserted into a spring chamber is provided in a valve retaining body that is braced axially against the valve body. The spring chamber is closed on one end remote from the combustion chamber by a lid. The lid is secured to the valve retaining body by a crimped connection.
