Patent number: 8920538Abstract: A method and a device for compressing a gas-phase medium, particularly hydrogen or natural gas, in a single-stage or multistage process using at least one piston compressor, wherein the medium may have a water content up to total saturation with water. The medium to be compressed is heated before the compression at least to such point that the water is unable to condense out during the compression process, and the compressed medium undergoes a water separation process.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2012Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Assignee: Linde AktiengesellschaftInventors: Robert Adler, Sascha Dorner, Georg Siebert, Martin Stehrlein

Patent number: 5609475Abstract: A compressor with a hypotrochoidal design is constructed in such fashion that its delivery can be varied in ways other than by the drive rpm alone. A controlling edge of an inlet opening that determines the beginning of compression has a variable angular position for this purpose.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 1995Date of Patent: March 11, 1997Assignee: Wankel Rotary GmbHInventor: Dankwart Eiermann

Patent number: 4797074Abstract: Disclosed is a speed controller of the ball cone type having a unique conical head which serves as a face seal valve and further encloses seals and protects the governor against entry of particulate matter.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1987Date of Patent: January 10, 1989Assignee: Ingersoll-Rand CompanyInventor: Gregory P. Albert

Patent number: 4444272Abstract: In a pneumatically powered rotating grinding machine there is provided a safety unit (13) comprising a speed governor and an overspeed release mechanism the purpose of which is to ensure a predetermined maximum speed. For safety reasons, the motor speed must never exceed a certain critical speed level which is determined by the mechanical strength of the working tool attached to the machine. When choosing a working tool to be attached to the machine the maximum speed mark of the machine is decisive. By having a portion of the safety unit exposed through an aperture (57) in the tool housing (10) and having the maximum speed mark (52) of the safety unit (13) located at the exposed portion, the maximum speed mark of the machine will always be the same as that of the safety unit (13). The suggested overspeed safety device avoids the risk involved in the event that a machine carrying a certain maximum speed mark might be erroneously fitted with a safety unit (13) intended for a higher maximum speed.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1982Date of Patent: April 24, 1984Assignee: Atlas Copco AktiebolagInventors: Karl G. Karden, Anders H. Nilsson

Patent number: 4443164Abstract: The present invention comprises a combined speed sensor and control valve for a rotary fluid motor such as a rotary vane air motor. Weights are pivotally attached to the opposite sides of the rotating output shaft of the air motor and are spring biased into engagement with an annular valve disc member positioned over the air inlet. Upon excessive speed of the shaft, the weights swing from engagement with the valve disc member and release the member. Air flow and air pressure within the air inlet passage cause the disc member to translate axially along the rotary shaft and close the air inlet. The air motor must be disassembled and the overspeed control reset prior to continued operation of the air motor.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 1982Date of Patent: April 17, 1984Assignee: The Aro CorporationInventor: Lowell R. Bavin

Patent number: 4307784Abstract: The improved shut-off apparatus for pneumatically driven tools includes an auxiliary shut-off valve located in the flow passageway. The valve is controlled by a control rod which extends through the air motor into engagement with a latching device. The latching device is held in the latched position with the valve open by a movable weighted control member. The movable weighted control member is responsive to inertia so that as the speed of the air motor decreases due to a torque load imposed thereon, the shaft slows causing the inertial movement of the weighted member to release the latching device permitting the auxiliary shut-off valve to close.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 1979Date of Patent: December 29, 1981Assignee: Dresser Industries, Inc.Inventor: William S. Smith

Patent number: 4278103Abstract: An overspeed control means for pneumatic tools which includes a split ring valve slidably arranged in a circumferential groove formed in a cage member affixed to the rotor shaft of the tool. When the cage member exceeds a predetermined rotational speed, the ring valve will expand and be moved, by pressure differential acting thereupon, into engagement with a valve seat to block holes in a flow circuit for pneumatic medium being conducted to the rotor of the tool, whereby tool operation is terminated.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 1980Date of Patent: July 14, 1981Assignee: Chicago Pneumatic Tool CompanyInventor: David A. Giardino

Patent number: 4265265Abstract: A pneumatic tool governor having a body rotatable with the rotor of the tool, the body being provided with holes for passage of motive fluid to the motor of the tool, and a centrifugally responsive valve element pivotally mounted upon the governor body so that the fluid conducting holes are progressively blocked as tool rotary spped increases to the point where rotary speed attains a predetermined value.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 1979Date of Patent: May 5, 1981Assignee: Chicago Pneumatic Tool CompanyInventors: William K. Wallace, David A. Giardino

Patent number: 4090821Abstract: A governor device for rotary grinders and the like is disclosed. The device prevents the dangerous overspeed of the grinder by throttling air to the motor as the grinder speed approaches overspeed. Throttling action is accomplished by means of allowing a resilient split ring or segment to expand radially out against air inlet orifices by means of centrifugal force. The split ring is assisted outwardly by means of an auxiliary mass means disposed within radially extended slots of an internal cage means.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1976Date of Patent: May 23, 1978Assignee: Ingersoll-Rand CompanyInventors: Robert Earl Barrows, Reginald William Pauley
