Abstract: In a clamping device for clamping a disk-shaped tool to a threaded spindle of a hand-held machine tool, a nut part, which can be screwed onto the threaded spindle, presses a face plate against the tool. An axial rolling bearing is arranged between the nut part and the face plate. To achieve simple and reliable manual clamping and release, in conjunction with a slip clutch function under overload, a spring is arranged between the face plate and the nut part next to the axial rolling bearing. The spring forms a non-rotatable frictionally engaged connection between the nut part and the face plate. The axial rolling bearing supports the face plate on the nut part. The nut part slips in relation to the face plate when an upper limit value of the torque transmitted is exceeded, and the axial rolling bearing rotates.

Abstract: In a power hand tool, especially a screwdriver, with a motor, a planet gear and a rotary impulse generator, a spring mechanism is provided to damp vibrations of the housing caused by the rotary impulse generator. To improve the damping with a simple design, one end of a compression spring is supported on a ring, which in turn is guided at a coil which is parallel to the axis, on the one hand, and is guided displaceably in parallel to the axis between a part rigidly connected to the housing and a part exposed to the rotary impact, on the other hand. The other end of the compression spring is supported on a part rigidly connected to the housing.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a process and a device for forming stacks from printed documents or other sheets 9. The sheets 9 are either moved forward individually or are separated from a web 2 of printed sheets by tearing or cutting, and they are arranged in a stream one on top of another such that the next sheet 9 comes to lie offset under the preceding sheet 9. The stack 10 is formed by the sheets 9 arranged in a stream coming into contact with a stop 11. To lose little time during the transfer of a finished stack 10 of sheets, a gap 25 is formed between the last sheet 9 belonging to the stack 10 and the next sheet before the sheets 9 are arranged in a stream. As soon as the last sheet 9 has reached the stacking position, the stop 11 is removed from its stop position, so that the stack 10 is moved away from the belt conveyor 20. The stop 11 is then returned into its stop position, and the next stack 10 is formed.

Abstract: Injection element of coaxial design for rocket combustion engines and for operation with two propellants, at least one of which disintegrates into drops with difficulty only, comprising a central body for the more readily disintegrating propellant (oxidant), whose flow channel generates a conical drop distribution at the outlet; a sleeve concentrically surrounding the central body to form an annular flow channel for the less readily disintegrating propellant (fuel); and a flow splitter which splits this propellant flow into a plurality of individual flows. The flow splitter has an even number of passage channels, which are uniformly distributed around the central body and cooperate in pairs in terms of an impact atomization ("impinging"), wherein the axes of two adjacent passage channels each intersect downstream of the flow splitter and upstream of their points of impact on the propellant cone discharged from the central body.
