  • Patent number: 11890667
    Abstract: In a method for thickening a plastically deformable hollow body wall of a hollow body, with effective radial support of the unthickened hollow body wall on an outer supporting face of an outer mold and with effective radial support of the hollow body wall on an inner supporting face of an inner supporting body, the hollow body is acted on by a compressive force by two application members at application points by moving the application members towards one another in the axial direction with a compressing movement. The application points on the hollow body are distanced from one another in the axial direction. An expansion space of the outer mold is arranged between the application points.

  • Patent number: 11007564
    Abstract: A method for thickening a plastically deformable hollow body wall of a hollow body includes the steps of arranging the hollow body in an outer mold, arranging an inner supporting body inside the hollow body, applying a compressive force to the hollow body wall by means of two application members moving towards one another in an axial direction with a continuous compressing movement, and performing an axial relative movement of the application members performing the continuous compressing movement on the one hand and of the outer mold on the other hand. Due to the compressing movement of the application members, material of the hollow body wall is plasticized and flows into an expansion space of the outer mold, an axial extent of the expansion space increasing due to the axial relative movement of the application members performing the continuous compressing movement and of the outer mold.

  • Patent number: 8240179
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for correcting a profile bevel error, in particular the tooth alignment error of the gear (V) of a workpiece (W), wherein said device (1) comprises a clamping device (3) for the workpiece (W), a tool (4) and at least one advancing device (7, 7?) generating the relative movement between the workpiece (W) and the tool (4). The inventive device is characterized in that it comprises a guide device (10, 10?) for the tool (4) and/or for the clamping device (3) which enables to carry out the rotating movement of the tool (4) and/or clamping device around the workpiece (W) axis (X) extending in an advance direction, wherein said rotating movement acts as a compensating movement.
