Patent number: 6873722Abstract: The invention relates to a method of contactlessly ascertaining chatter marks in finely-machined workpiece surfaces, with the following steps: a contactlessly operating, high-resolution surface-measuring method is used to generate from the workpiece surface a data record representing the actual microtopography of the workpiece surface, to take away from this a data record representing the idealized macroform of the workpiece surface, and in this way to generate a data record representing the flat-extended form of the microtopography of the workpiece surface. This data record is subjected to a digital in-phase bandpass filtering with respect to its circumferential waviness, the waviness of interest here of the chatter marks preferably being allowed through. The data record formed in this way is for its part subjected to a stationary multiple cross correlation with respect to the transverse direction.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2001Date of Patent: March 29, 2005Assignee: DaimlerChrysler AGInventors: Tobias Hercke, Norbert Rau, Michael Seibold

Patent number: 6659828Abstract: The invention relates to a flat discharge lamp (1), comprising two substantially parallel plates (5, 6) and two support areas serving to support both plates against each other. Each support area consists of a component having a high-viscosity (8) and a low viscosity (7) at assembling temperature. Before assembling the discharge vessel, the support areas are larger than final distance envisaged between both plates. The low viscosity component (7) compensates for possible local deviations in the distance between both plates when the discharge vessel are assembled.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2000Date of Patent: December 9, 2003Assignee: Patent-Treuhand-Gesellshaft fuer Elektrische Gluehlampen mbHInventors: Michael Seibold, Michael Ilmer, Angela Eberhardt
