Patent number: 8460596Abstract: A process for the production of a core that can be used for the manufacturing of a part that is made of composite material, whereby the core consists of at least one powdered and/or granular product (16), includes introducing the at least one powdered and/or granular product (16) by vibrating it in an outer envelope (14) placed in a device (18) having a cavity that is delimited by a wall (20) whose geometry is adapted to that of the core to be produced and flattening the outer envelope (14) against the wall (20), characterized in that vibrations are emitted slightly above the fill level during filling.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2009Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Airbus Operations SASInventors: Thomas Le Hetet, Florian Musseau, Frédérick Cavaliere

Patent number: 7766283Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) which is used to lift and displace the tongue blade (2) of a rail (6), comprising at least two rollers (12, 14) whereby the axes thereof are arranged in an essentially parallel manner in relation to a running rail (4), in order to displace the tongue blade (2) in a transversal manner in relation to the running rail (4), at least two support carrier pins (22, 24) which respectively support a roller (12, 14), and a base body (8) which supports the carrier pins (22, 24). The rollers (12, 14) have a projection which projects in at least one first direction in relation to the base body (8). The inventive device is characterised in that a covering (10) is arranged between at least two adjacent rollers and is oriented towards the first direction and at least partially covers a passage between the at least two adjacent rollers (12, 14).Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2005Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: CDP Bharat Forge GmbHInventors: Bernd Lesemann, Frank Bornscheuer

Patent number: 5577691Abstract: In a switch blade (point-rail) device in a grooved-rail turnout on a tram- or streetcar-type line, switch blades (2) are detachably mounted, using a clamping wedge (5) which is fastened to a support part (6) by means of a screw (12) in an essentially perpendicular direction to the running surface. Once the clamping wedge (5) has been removed, the switch blade (2) can be demounted and lifted out. Mounting is performed by pressing an inclined lateral surface (7) of the switch blade (2) against a correspondingly inclined lateral surface (8) of the support part (6). The angles of inclination of the wedge, and of the contact surface of the support part, are matched to each other so that self-locking is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 1995Date of Patent: November 26, 1996Assignee: VAE AktiengesellschaftInventors: Egger Erich, Ossberger Heinz

Patent number: 5509626Abstract: A railroad track switch has tongue rails which pivot relative to fixed stock rails and rolls onto which the tongue rails move when pivoted away from the stock rails. The rolls are carried at opposite ends in spring supports and each roll is mounted for level adjustments in the respective supports. Outer ends of the spring supports are themselves mounted for back and forth adjustments towards and away from the stock rails.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 1994Date of Patent: April 23, 1996Assignee: Enzesfeld-Caro Metallwerke AGInventor: Andreas Fodor

Patent number: 5499786Abstract: In a device for facilitating the re-positioning of moveable rails or rail components, in particular of tongue rails (7), in which the rails (7, 7'), during the re-positioning operation are supported on rollers (10, 10') forced against the underside of the rail base by spring action, the rollers (10, 10') in at least one end position (7, 7') of the re-positioning operation are pressed by the force of the spring against one edge (14, 15) of the rail base. In this way it is possible to combine the advantages of reduction of the sliding friction during the re-positioning operation with a flexible securing of the end position of the currently involved adjusted position of the moveable rail or rail component (7, 7').Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1993Date of Patent: March 19, 1996Assignee: Voest-Alpine Eisenbahnsysteme AktiengesellschaftInventors: Gerald Durchschlag, Herbert Klein

Patent number: 5451018Abstract: A railway tongue and junction rail assembly including a mounting fixed to the junction rail. The tongue abuts the junction rail at an inclined junction and is releasably secured within the mounting with the mounting being the sole means of joining the tongue to the junction rail.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1993Date of Patent: September 19, 1995Assignee: BWG, Butzbacher Weichenbau GmbHInventors: Fridbert Heinze, Erich Nuding, Friedhelm Wojtek

Patent number: 5222700Abstract: A device for locking a switch blade with a stock rail which includes a locking piece connected to the stock rail. The locking piece has an opening through which the longer leg of an L-shaped locking clamp extends. A switch element also extends through the opening and has an upper surface in contact with the longer leg of the L-shaped member which extends below the foot of the switch blade. The shorter leg has an end free to articulate with respect to a shaft. The shaft is further connected with a clamp receiver or clamp notch. The pivot axis of the clamp receiver member and shorter leg extends parallel with the switch blade and is positioned above the foot of the switch rail such that the clamp receiver member slopes downwardly between the shaft and connection point with the switch blade.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1991Date of Patent: June 29, 1993Assignee: BWG Butzbacher Weichenbau GmbHInventors: Alfred Kais, Erich Nuding, Sebastian Benenowski

Patent number: 5195703Abstract: A device for locking a switch blade (10, 12) with a stock rail (14, 16) is proposed, whereby the switch blade is held down on a supporting surface only when it is in locked and unlocked positions. When the switch blade (10, 12) is in the locked position it is acted upon by a resultant force (53) that prevents both a rotation of the switch blade and its rising up.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1991Date of Patent: March 23, 1993Assignee: BWG Butzbacher Weichenbau GmbHInventors: Alfred Kais, Erich Nuding, Sebastian Benenowski

Patent number: 4251042Abstract: A double tongue switch comprises a pair of identical and interchangeable switch assemblies, each of which has a rectangular body with vertical outer walls. Each switch tongue includes a pair of full-width railheads of increased thickness. Each body includes a continuous central support wall beneath the traffic-carrying tongue railhead. The inner end and side walls are ramped to facilitate removal of debris. The tongues are positively locked in extreme positions and are mounted on the bodies by an improved attachment device.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 1979Date of Patent: February 17, 1981Assignee: Abex CorporationInventor: Earl E.

Patent number: 4174820Abstract: This invention relates to an improvement in an apparatus and method for moving a railway switch composed of travel rail sections of a main track which are pivoted by positioning elements to rail sections of a branch-off track and locked by closing elements in a particular position with respect to a switch plate extending across the switch, the improvement comprising two positioning sleds, a profiled guide rail supporting each of said sleds, one of said guide rails being outside of and parallel to said travel rail sections of said main track, and the other of said guide rails being outside of and parallel to said rail sections of said branch-off track, and a cross-piece on each positioning sled, each of said cross-pieces having a compression roller mounted thereon and adapted to engage the inside of a rail head of an adjacent travel rail.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 1978Date of Patent: November 20, 1979Assignee: Elektro-Thermit GmbHInventor: Bernd-Joachim Kempa
