Abstract: A valve nozzle for introducing a flowable liquid into a mixing chamber through which flows a gas includes a nozzle head having defined therein the mixing chamber and having a gas delivery conduit which communicates with the mixing chamber, the mixing chamber having at least one nozzle opening through which a mixture of the gas and the flowable liquid pass from the nozzle head; driving device for opening and closing the at least one nozzle opening; closing spring connected to the driving device; an actuating device connected to the closing spring; a closure body which is disposed on the outflow side of the at least one nozzle opening, which is supported on the actuating device, and which is axially movable; a distribution chamber which discharges into the mixing chamber and has a valve seat for the closure body so that the interstice between the valve seat and the closure body, in an open position of the closure body, forms the at least one nozzle opening; a delivery conduit for the flowable liquid which termi

Abstract: To achieve a greater accuracy, an optoelectronic measuring method and an apparatus for measuring with optoelectronic instruments provides that one or two light rays of one or two light transmitters, such as lasers, are directed at an acute angle onto a surface to be shaped and that the distance covered from the starting position to the end position in the shaping operations is measured by means of a photodetector, e.g., a diode camera, which is set up perpendicular to the light spot or spots.
