  • Patent number: 11445700
    Abstract: Disclosed are a device, system and method for animal tracking. The tracking device comprises a tracker processing component, an energy component, a transmitting component, and a securing component. The system comprises the tracking device, a receiving device and a server. The method comprising securing the tracking device to an animal, transmitting an identification of the animal, receiving the transmission via the receiving device, modifying it and forwarding it to the server, where the modified transmission is logged and analyzed to determine animal positions.

  • Patent number: 10563922
    Abstract: A method for detecting a leakage in the area of at least one cooling device of a furnace, wherein, in the event of a leakage, liquid coolant gets into a furnace chamber of the furnace from the at least one cooling device, and wherein a stream of exhaust gas is continuously removed from the furnace chamber over a period of time Z. The steps include dividing off a representative partial stream from the stream of exhaust gas during the period of time Z; condensing vaporous constituents contained in the partial stream; determining a stream of condensate obtained; comparing the stream of condensate obtained with a condensate-stream limit value; and indicating a leakage if the stream of condensate exceeds the condensate-stream limit value. Also a device for carrying out the method and a furnace with such a device are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10508315
    Abstract: A burner-lance unit (1) includes at least two gas connections (2a, 2b, 2c), a burner tube (3), and a lance tube (4) that is placed concentrically in the burner tube (3). The burner tube (3) and the lance tube (4) both have a gas inlet end and a gas outlet end (15). The lance tube (4) has a de Laval nozzle (4a) at the gas outlet end thereof. The de Laval nozzle (4a) is releasably connected to the lance tube (4). The burner tube (3) has a burner nozzle (3a) which is releasably connected to the burner tube (3).

  • Patent number: 9500528
    Abstract: A temperature of a metal melt in a furnace is maintained after blowing away slag from a surface of the metal melt by the flow of oxygen and switching over from oxygen to an inert gas, such as nitrogen. A measured temperature of the metal melt is accepted as a metal melt temperature only when the inert gas flow is in a laminar state and after the measured temperature has fluctuated by a maximum of 1% over a period of at least 2 seconds.
