  • Patent number: 6471139
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rail arrangement for a rail superstucture such as a fixed railroad, comprising an elastic intermediate plate (3) which is located between the rail foot and a hard support (6) in the form of a concrete tie and has two through holes for the screws (7) to fasten the rails. For series mounting, which is the solution of choice, the elastic intermediate plate (3) is combined with an elastic intermediate layer (1) in such a way that the additional intermediate layer rests above the intermediate plate directly below the rail foot, whereby the intermediate layer (1) is separated from the intermediate plate (3) by a metal base plate (2) which serves to fasten the rail.

  • Publication number: 20020064157
    Abstract: A system and a method provides both for a real-time-critical communication and a non-real-time-critical communication in a switched data network consisting of users and switching units, for example a distributed automation system, by means of a cyclic operation. In a so-called transmission cycle (12), there exists for all users and switching units of the switched data network in each case at least one section (13) for transmitting real-time-critical data and at least one section (14) for transmitting non-real-time-critical data, as a result of which the real-time-critical communication is separated from the non-real-time-critical communication. Since all users and switching units are always synchronized to a common time base, the respective sections for transmitting data in each case take place at the same time for all users and switching units, i.e.

  • Patent number: 6265954
    Abstract: In the proposed stripline filter, the individual stripline resonators are folded, partially arranged on the upper side, partially arranged on the underside of the substrate. The stripline filter, which is utilized in cross-over frequency shunts in a frequency range of up to one GHz, exhibits high selectivity, low losses and, thus, high quality, high constancy, low volume and a cost-beneficial manufacturability in mass production.

  • Patent number: 5735457
    Abstract: A rubber mixture is particularly based on natural rubber (NR), epoxidized natural rubber (E-NR), isoprene rubber (IR), butadiene rubber (BR), acrylate rubber (ACM), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), or blends of these types of rubber, particularly NR/SBR- blends or NR-BR- blends, as well as the usual mixing ingredients such as fillers, plasticizers, anti-aging media, as well as additional additives, if needed. This mixture produces a plate-like, elastic intermediate layer with low dynamic stiffening; high dynamic stressability; high specific volume resistivity; and low frequency-dependence of the dynamic stiffening. The intermediate layer is arranged particularly between the base of the rail and the top side of the tie in connection with high-speed rail tracks. The underside of the intermediate layer is provided with at least one recess, with formation of an edge extending all around, and facing the top side of the tie.

  • Patent number: 5637645
    Abstract: The invention relates to a caoutchouc mixture for the manufacture of rubber products with low-temperature application capability, resistance to oil, low crystallization tendency, and high dynamic stressability, on the basis of natural caoutchouc, in particular viscosity-stabilized natural caoutchouc, and the usual mixture ingredients. The essence of said invention lies in that the caoutchouc mixture additionally contains 5 to 30% by weight 1,4-polybutadiene with a high cis-proportion, and 5 to 30% by weight epoxidized natural caoutchouc. An additional mixture variation is introduced.

  • Patent number: 4981500
    Abstract: A Venturi Cooler for flue gas desulphurization devices sprays water through water spray nozzles on pipes positioned perpendicularly to the longitudinal flow direction of the cooler. It is important for the effectiveness of the diffused water that the speed of the flue gas does not fall below a certain limit. A simple adjustment of the cross section of the Venturi cooler to the respective flue gas amount can be achieved by arranging movable baffles on the pipes. The baffles are positionable to reduce the cross section of the Venturi cooler and leave the openings of the water spray nozzles free. They advantageously comprise rotatable sleeves surrounding the pipes and have rotatable flaps for fast adjustment of the cross section.
