  • Patent number: 9289873
    Abstract: An abrasive cutting machine includes a housing and a cutting arm on which a cutting tool is accommodated on the end side. The cutting tool is driven via a belt by an engine of the abrasive cutting machine, and the housing encompasses a fan chamber for accommodating a fan wheel by which an air flow is provided. A belt chamber for accommodating the belt is embodied in the cutting arm, with improved durability of a belt, in particular the dust exposure of the belt for power transfer from the engine to the cutting tool. Provision is made between the fan chamber and the belt chamber for an air duct, through which at least a part of the air flow, which is created by the fan wheel, reaches from the fan chamber into the belt chamber, so as to apply a sealing air flow to the belt chamber.

  • Patent number: 7726370
    Abstract: A vehicle wheel with a wheel rim and a solid tire positioned on the wheel rim. The vehicle wheel has an annular upper shell having a first wedge-shaped surface and composed of at least two upper segments. Further, the vehicle wheel includes an annular lower shell composed of lower segments and having an outer circumference having a second wedge-shaped surface. Moreover, the second wedge-shaped surface is structured and arranged in a diametrically opposed manner to the first wedge-shaped surface. Additionally, the annular lower shell is arranged on the rim, the annular lower shell is arranged against the annular upper shell, and the annular upper shell is connected to the solid tire.

  • Patent number: 6098645
    Abstract: A double-seat valve with an upper valve stem and a lower valve stem which, on the end, each have valve sealing bodies, each of which valve sealing bodies has a seal which is located on the balance diameter. One of the valve sealing bodies also has a center seal which is used to seal a leakage space when the valve stems are in the open position. The center seal also lies on the balance diameter. The other valve sealing body has a sealing collar, against which sealing collar the center seal is in contact when the valve stems are in the open position, so that even in this case, a sealing of the leakage space is guaranteed.

  • Patent number: 4261235
    Abstract: The cutter head for the traced rough turning of rod-like workpieces includes a rotary base ring provided with a plurality of radial guideways. A supporting member in the form of a slide carriage movable on the radial guideways supports an elongated blade holder which is pivotable about a hinge point laterally offset from the guideways. The free end of each blade holder carries an inserted blade and is spring biased against the workpiece at the center of the base ring by a set of biasing springs supported on the slide carriage. A tracer pin adjoins the cutting blade and its vertical position is adjustable relative to the main cutting edge to determine the thickness of the cuttings. The point of contact of the cutting edge relative to the center of the hinge joint forms with a tangent line passing through the contact point an angle between 10.degree. to 25.degree..
