In this case, the pressure-exerting element (130) is formed as at least one flexible tube to which pressure can be applied.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for depositing a metal coil (200) on two support points (110-1; 110-2). In order to avoid risks, in particular instability, while depositing metal coils having high residual stress, according to the invention the risk of an unstable position of equilibrium is checked, if a change in the relative position of the two support points (110-1; 110-2) with respect to one another is foreseeable, it is carried out such that the metal coil (200) comes to rest on both support points at least approximately in a stable position of equilibrium.

Abstract: A mandrel for winding sheet metal has a generally tubular mandrel body extending along and centered on an axis and formed at one end with a plurality of radially throughgoing and angularly spaced apertures each having a pair of closed and axially confronting end faces, a spreading bar extending axially inside the body and having a respective pivot adjacent each of the apertures, respective rigid links extending through the apertures and having inner ends carried on the respective pivots and outer ends projecting outside the body, and respective segments outside the body and each pivoted on the outer end of a respective one of the links. Respective pressure plates are operatively connected at the one end between the segments and the mandrel body.

Abstract: Disclosed is a strip coiler for coiling a metal strip (20), comprising a coiling mandrel (21), pressing rollers (26) associated with the coiling mandrel (21), and adjustable deflection shells (28) for pressing the leading edge (24) of the metal strip (20) against the coiling mandrel (21). The disclosed strip coiler is characterized in that at least one of the deflection shells (28) has a tip (22) which is adjustable relative to the deflection shell (28).

Abstract: The invention relates to a reel mandrel (1) for winding sheet metal, in particular rolled hot strip, comprising a mandrel body (2) preferably configured as hollow-cylindrical, a spreading bar (3) which can be adjusted relative to the mandrel body (2) in the axial direction (A) and a number of segments (4) which are radially adjustable by axial movement of the spreading bar (3) relative to the mandrel body (2), wherein a number of links (5) pivoted on the spreading bar (3) and the segments (4) are arranged between the spreading bar (3) and the segments (4). In order to make such a reel mandrel suitable for winding high-strength and super high-strength materials, the invention provides that in the mounted state of the reel mandrel (1), at least a number of links (5) pass through recesses (6) in the mandrel body (2) which are inserted in the mandrel body (2) such that this is at least free from recesses (6) at its axial ends (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for winding up metal strips (2) onto a winding mandrel (3), which is arranged in a reeling shaft (1) and to which the metal strip is passed by a driver having a lower and an upper driver roller (5, 6), wherein a table (7) is provided underneath the metal strip (2) for guidance and a pivotable strip diverter and, adjoining the latter almost up to the winding mandrel (3), a pivotable shaft flap (11) are arranged above the metal strip. By measuring the strip tension in the reeling shaft, it is intended to regulate the driver in such a way that the running of the strip makes it possible for the metal strip to be wound up to form a coil with straight edges.

Abstract: The invention relates to positional data recording, and in particular, to a method and system for polling the concordance of a mobile radio terminal user for the transmission of positional data to a poller. Specifically, polling data are supplemented by a specification stipulated for the poller on the basis of which it van be determined at least whether the consent of the mobile radio terminal is to be obtained for forwarding the mobile radio position data to the poller.

Abstract: The invention relates to a privacy function check which is efficient in terms of network load, and is carried out by means of a method for requesting the agreement of a user of a mobile radio terminal of a mobile radio network, relating to the transmission of the position data of said terminal to a requester requesting said position data. In the event of an arrival of one such request in a switching center of the mobile radio network, said switching center prompts a database server to check, by means of consultation information stored in the server and relating to the mobile radio terminal, whether an agreement must be obtained from the mobile radio terminal in order to transmit the position of said terminal to the requester, the result of the check then being sent to the switching center.
