Patent number: 7416224Abstract: A device for fixing the sliding ring of an axial sliding ring seal for an axial rotary transmission leadthrough to a sliding ring support includes a conically tapered radial outer casing surface of the sliding ring and a holding apparatus designed as a cap nut and has a threaded section which can be screwed onto a matching external thread in the end area of the sliding ring support and also has a holding section which has a conically running internal surface which is matched to the conical casing surface of the corresponding sliding ring. The device has a higher degree of reliability and durability and is sufficiently space-saving to be able to replace existing rotary transmission leadthroughs in which the sliding rings are glued to the sliding ring supports.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2005Date of Patent: August 26, 2008Assignee: GAT Gesellschaft fur Antriebstechnik mbHInventor: Stephan Ott

Patent number: 7407198Abstract: A radial rotary transfer assembly including at least one rotor (4) and at least one stationary part (1) The rotor (4) has at least two sealing surfaces (16, 18). Two sliding rings (2, 3) having at least two sealing surfaces (15, 17) are arranged between the stationary part and the rotor. The sealing surfaces (15, 17) of the sliding rings (2, 3) co-operate with the rotor sealing surfaces (16, 18), and with at least one radial through-flow duct (10) between the pairs (15, 16; 17, 18) of co-operating sealing surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2004Date of Patent: August 5, 2008Assignee: GAT Gesellschaft fur Antriebstechnik mbHInventors: Stephan Ott, Thomas Bohrmann

Patent number: 7223075Abstract: A turbine wheel for driving rapidly rotating tools, in the form of a circular disk or ring, configured for mounting so as to be rotatable about an axis. Disposed thereon in circular formation are turbine blades having axially parallel front and back faces curved in the radial direction. The front face has a lesser radius of curvature (R3, R4), at least in portions, than the back face. This feature allows the turbine wheel to fit into the conventional turbine housings without relatively major redesign and with, at most, slight modifications. The turbine wheel can achieve higher torque than previous turbine wheels at the required high rotational speeds. Thus, a greater quantity of material can be applied to the spraying dome or a spraying disk without a detrimental braking. Surfaces to be sprayed can be provided with a uniform coat of material in shorter time.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2004Date of Patent: May 29, 2007Assignee: GAT Gesellschaft für Antriebstechnik mbHInventor: Bernhard Schmitt

Patent number: 5799692Abstract: A rotary fluid transmission between a pair of moving machine parts has frustoconical contact surfaces which are relatively rotatable and juxtaposed with one another and formed with openings or channels which communicate with one another. The contact between them can be direct or via sealing members for the openings or channels. The contact surfaces are provided so that they can axially separate at higher speeds and can contact each other at slower speeds or when the relative rotation terminates.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 1996Date of Patent: September 1, 1998Assignee: GAT Gesellschaft Fur Antriebstechnik mbHInventors: Jurgen Gobell, Stephan Ott, Michael Ueberle

Patent number: 5707186Abstract: A chuck-actuating spindle assembly has a hollow shaft extending along and rotatable about an axis, a clamping bar parallel to and rotatable with the shaft and axially displaceable relative to the shaft to clamp and release an object carried on the shaft, and a rotary union for transmitting a fluid to the object carried on the shaft. The union has in turn a union housing nonrotatable about the axis, an annular bar seal face on the clamping bar, and a sealing member axially movable in the union housing independently of the bar face, forming a pressurizable space with the union housing, and having an annular member seal face axially confronting and axially engageable with the bar seal face. The seal faces form a portion of a passage extending from the space along the bar and shaft to the object. Rotation of the sealing member about the axis relative to the union housing is inhibited and the member is braced against the union housing axially away from the bar seal face with a predetermined biasing force.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 1996Date of Patent: January 13, 1998Assignee: Gat Gesellschaft Fur Antriebstechnik mbHInventors: Jurgen Gobell, Stephan Ott
