Patent number: 9783936Abstract: A device for screwing and unscrewing bolts and screws uses a motor-driven screwdriving tool, which is preferably used in the track region of railroad facilities. The device makes it possible to screw and unscrew screws, nuts and bolts reliably and effectively, preferably in the context of railroad use. The appliance is intended to have a low weight and a high output over long periods of use, can be operated with one hand, is specifically pre-oriented to the various applications and has a modular construction. To this end, the device has a central rib which serves as a receptacle for all of the attachments and fittings to be installed in a modular manner.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2013Date of Patent: October 10, 2017Assignee: Loesomat-Schraubtechnik Neef GmbHInventors: Marc Gareis, Thomas Jaekel

Patent number: 9193049Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for operating a hydraulic torque wrench or similar, comprising a piston-cylinder unit (18) that can be controlled at a predetermined pressure by a pump (11). Said arrangement is characterized in that the piston-cylinder unit (18) can be controlled by the pump (11) by means of a proportional valve (12) which acts both as a reversing unit between the forward and return travel and as a pressure control valve.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2011Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: LOESOMAT Schraubtechnik Neef GmbHInventor: Marc Gareis

Publication number: 20140369777Abstract: A method for producing a toothing on an in particular round workpiece, wherein the teeth are produced by a shaping method using a tool which moves along a path which is controlled by a lifting cam and in the case of which an exchange movement that runs substantially in the radial direction of the workpiece follows a downward movement which runs in the axial direction of the workpiece and serves to produce the tooth flanks, wherein the exchange movement is superimposed with a downward movement such that a curved path is produced during the exchange, is characterized in that the relative rake angle ?rel of the tool (200) does not fall below a minimum rake angle ?min which corresponds to the rake angle ? of the tool (200), the rake angle ? being reduced by the angle ? between the longitudinal axis of the workpiece and the direction vector of the tool movement.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2012Publication date: December 18, 2014Applicant: LOESOMAT SCHRAUBTECHNIK NEEF GMBHInventors: Marc Gareis, Klaus Wilczek

Publication number: 20130047799Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing precise tightening torque for screw connections including the combination of a torque multiplier (100) and a torque wrench (200) which is adapted to the torque multiplier and calibrated therewith. The invention also relates to a method for calibrating the type of device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2011Publication date: February 28, 2013Applicant: LOESOMAT SCHRAUBTECHNIK NEEF GMBHInventor: Marc Gareis

Patent number: 8171827Abstract: The invention relates to a power screwdriver (10) comprising a motor (12) and a control circuit (22) which switches the motor (12) off by means of a switch-off signal (s_Stop) when it reaches a preset desired torque value (Md_Soll), and a supporting arm (18) which absorbs energy during screwing. The invention is characterized by a voltage limiting circuit (46) that limits the motor voltage (u_Mot) occurring on the motor (12) when the energy stored in the supporting arm (18) of the motor (12), which is driven as the generator and rotates counter to the direction of drive, is dissipated, to a predetermined limiting voltage (u_Lim). The limiting voltage (u_Lim) is fixed in such a manner that the motor (12) is capable of rotating without counter-torque counter to the direction of drive when operated in the generator mode and that yet no inadmissible overvoltages occur.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2008Date of Patent: May 8, 2012Assignee: LOESOMAT Schraubtechnik Neef GmbHInventor: Marc Gareis

Publication number: 20100154599Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile control device (10) for power wrenches, comprising at least one display unit (11) and at least one input element (12a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 13c). The control device (10) is characterized by a mechanism (14) for receiving a contactless mobile data carrier (31) and a data carrier transceiver (33) which establishes a data carrier connection (34) to exchange data with a contactless mobile data carrier (31) that is placed in the receiving mechanism (14). The invention further relates to uses of the mobile control device (10) for remote controlling differently designed power wrenches (40, 50, 60) and/or exchanging data with such a power wrench (40, 50, 60) or at least recording data of such a power wrench (40, 50, 60). The disclosed mobile control device (10) for power wrenches is particularly suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2008Publication date: June 24, 2010Inventor: Marc Gareis

Publication number: 20100116519Abstract: The invention relates to a power screwdriver (10) comprising a motor (12) as the drive, a desired torque default element (52) and an actual torque determination element (46), a torque gradient determination element (48) and a motor control (40) which controls the motor (12) depending on the torque gradient (dmd_lst/dt). The invention is characterized by a torque threshold determination element (50) which provides a torque threshold value (Md_Lim, Md_Lim1, Md_Lim2) that depends on the torque gradient (dmd_lst/dt) and lies below the desired torque value (Md_Soll). If the actual torque value (md_Ist) exceeds the torque threshold value (Md_Lim, Md_Lim1, Md_Lim2), a motor control (40) presets a speed reduction for the motor (12) or already completely switches off the motor (12). The power screwdriver (10) according to the invention avoids torque overshoots and yet allows the desired torque value (Md_Soll) to be exactly reached in the shortest time possible.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2008Publication date: May 13, 2010Inventor: Marc Gareis
