Patent number: 8361189Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for producing metals and/or primary metal products, in particular pig iron and/or primary pig iron products, in which a metal-containing charge material, in particular in fine particle form, is introduced, using pneumatic conveying, by means of a carrier gas stream, in the form of a stream of medium formed from the charge material and the carrier gas stream, into a melting unit, in particular a melter gasifier, for further processing. According to the invention, the charge material is introduced after the carrier gas stream has been separated off and separately at at least two introduction points, so that at least two partial quantities of the charge material can be introduced independently of one another and continuously or in stacked form.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2012Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Siemens Vai Metals Technologies GmbHInventors: Martin Schmidt, Johannes Schenk, Franz Hauzenberger, Josef Stockinger, Johann Wurm

Publication number: 20090171582Abstract: A vehicle navigation system may include an antenna, e.g. a GPS antenna, an output for providing guide advice to the vehicle driver and including a display, a memory encompassing a navigation database with electronic maps stored within, and an electronic controller. The system is capable of detecting the global position of the vehicle on the basis of the electromagnetic waves received by the antenna, associating the global position to the exact road position of the vehicle by comparison with the electronic maps and providing pictorial guide advice to the vehicle driver according to the road position via the display. The system may include a digital camera installed on the vehicle and able to record digital pictures of the outside and to provide the digital pictures to the electronic controller. The pictures are displayed via the display, and pictorial guide advice, e.g. directional arrows, are overprinted to the displayed pictures.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2008Publication date: July 2, 2009Applicants: STMicroelectronics Design and Application GmbH, STMicroelectronics GmbHInventors: Josef Stockinger, Michael Blohm

Patent number: 6562102Abstract: Process and apparatus for producing liquid pig iron or primary steel products from iron-containing material in lump form in a fusion gasifier (1), in which, with lump coal and oxygen-containing gas being fed in, and with simultaneous formation of a reduction gas, the iron-containing material is fused, lump coal being fed to the fusion gasifier (1) from above and, together with the iron-containing material, forming a fixed bed (6) in the fusion gasifier (1) and thereby giving off its fraction of volatile hydrocarbons into the dome space (11) located above the fixed bed (6), and pulverized-fuel burners (15) being directed obliquely from above towards the surface of the fixed bed (6). The operation of the pulverized-fuel burners (15) is in this case controlled in such a way that the combustion of the carbon fraction of the carbon carriers in fine particle form takes place in a proportion of at least 40% to form CO2.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2001Date of Patent: May 13, 2003Assignee: Deutsche Voest-Alpine Industrieanlagenbau GmbHInventors: Leopold Werner Kepplinger, Kurt Wieder, Herbert Mizelli, Josef Stockinger, Johann Wurm, Parviz Zahedi

Patent number: 6264725Abstract: According to a process for producing pig iron (10) from fine-particulate iron oxide carriers and lumpy iron-containing material in a meltdown gasifying zone (9) of a melter gasifier (3), the iron-containing material is melted in a bed (13) formed of solid carbon carriers, under the supply of carbon-containing material and oxygen-containing gas while simultaneously forming a reducing gas. Fine-particulate iron-oxide carriers, such as iron-containing fine ore and ore dust and oxidic iron fine dust, are introduced into a reducing gas stream leaving the melter gasifier (3), and the reducing gas is separated from the fine-particulate material formed thereby. The separated fine-particulate material is introduced into the meltdown gasifying zone (9) via a dust recirculation line (26, 27, 28, 29) and through a dust burner (30), and the reducing gas is used for reducing iron-oxide-containing material.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 1999Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: Voest-Alpine Industrieanlagenbau GmbHInventors: Josef Stockinger, Michael Nagl

Patent number: 6202576Abstract: In a process for recycling fine-particle solids (4) discharged from a reactor vessel (1) at a discharging position of the reactor vessel (1) by means of a gas, at a recycling position (16) of the reactor vessel (1), the solids (4) are separated in a solids separator (3) and subsequently collected in a collecting vessel (8) and from the same are recycled into the reactor vessel (1) by means of a conveying gas. To enhance the operation of the solids separator (3), but without causing an additional load on the reactor vessel (1), an additional gas stream (23) independent of the gas stream in the reactor vessel is conducted through the solids separator (3) in a circuit, in the direction of flow of the solids (4).Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 1998Date of Patent: March 20, 2001Assignee: Deutsche Voest-Alpine Industrieanlagenbau GmbHInventors: Michael Nagl, Johannes Schenk, Josef Stockinger

Patent number: 5126588Abstract: A digital push-pull driver circuit comprising two output transistors which are alternatingly controlled into the conducting state by a data control circuit and to whose common connection point a load to be driven is connected. One slope steepness reducing, enable-dependent delay circuit each is connected between the control electrode of each of the two output transistors and the data control circuit. The output of each delay circuit is connected to an enable input of the respective other delay circuit. The delay times of the two delay members are at least as long as the width of the steepness-reduced pulse slopes in terms of time.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 1990Date of Patent: June 30, 1992Assignee: SGS-Thomson Microelectronics GmbHInventors: Hans Reichmeyer, Josef Stockinger

Patent number: 4890012Abstract: A switch means designed as an integrated circuit possesses two series-connected FETs (Q1P, Q2P; Q1N, Q2N) whose common switching point (N5, N6) is clamped via a clamp FET (Q3N, Q3P) to a reference potential. The conductivity type of the clamp FET (Q3N, Q3P) is opposite the conductivity type of the two series-connected FETs (Q1P, Q2P; Q1N, Q2N). In the case of an n-channel clamp FET (Q3N), the latter is connected to negative potential. In the case of a p-channel clamp FET (Q3P), it is connected to positive potential.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 1988Date of Patent: December 26, 1989Assignee: SGS-Thomson Microelectronics GmbHInventor: Josef Stockinger

Patent number: 4766476Abstract: Base cells are employed for construction of electronic circuits by use of CMOS technology. The base cells are formed of two transistors and of first interconnects and second interconnects positioned perpendicular to one another. The first interconnects are formed of polysilicon and run parallel to a same side edge of the transistors. The second interconnects are formed of metal and run either between the two transistors or over the two transistors. Desired electronic circuits can be constructed by electrical connection via contacts between the interconnects and the transistor electrodes, and by a multiple side-by-side positioning of the base cells. The base cell has a simple geometrical structure which can be defined with software. Individual base cells can be positioned side-by-side without great modifications in order to realize electronic circuits.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 1985Date of Patent: August 23, 1988Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Burghardt Schallenberger, Josef Stockinger, Paul Fuchs
