Abstract: The method of the invention provides that a predetermined quantity of molten glass necessary for producing molded glass bodies according to the press-molding method is poured into a press mold prior to the insertion of the molding plug while the press mold is located in the press station, and that the molded glass body is removed after the molding plug is withdrawn from the press mold, with this mold likewise being located in the pressing station. This method renders a mold transport superfluous. The invention also relates to an apparatus suitable for executing the method, in which the molding plug can be pivoted laterally from its initial position located outside of the press mold about an axis extending transversely to the center axis of the molding plug.

Abstract: A drive unit includes a housing defining a rotational axis, a drive shaft supported by the housing for rotation about the rotational axis, an actuator supported by the housing for rotation about the rotational axis responsive to rotation of the drive shaft, and a coupling mechanism for coupling rotation of the drive shaft and the actuator. The coupling mechanism includes a first frictional surface rotatable with the drive shaft and a second frictional surface rotatable with the actuator. The first and second frictional surfaces are mating conical frustrum surfaces, the first frictional surface driving the second frictional surface via friction upon rotation of the drive shaft. Means are included for urging the first and second frictional surfaces together. The urging means may include a compression spring. The coupling mechanism may include a friction ring non-rotatably mounted to the drive shaft, the first frictional surface being disposed on the friction ring.

Abstract: A carding machine includes a main carding cylinder including a cylindrical jacket having an outer surface; a cylinder clothing carried on the outer jacket surface; and radial supporting elements supporting the cylindrical jacket. The carding machine further has a machine element defining a radial clearance with the cylinder clothing; two stationary lateral shield plates flanking the main carding cylinder; and an arrangement for reducing heat removal from the lateral shield plates to adapt a heat-caused expansion of the lateral shield plates to a heat-caused expansion of the main carding cylinder.

Abstract: A fan cooler for electric or electronic sub-assemblies having a control circuit with a control stage for controlling the speed of rotation of a fan motor connected to the control stage depending on set values. To achieve a polyvalent operation with a simple design, the fan motor is a phase-controlled asynchronous motor, the control circuit has a microcontroller that controls the control stage, an optic coupler is connected between the control stage and the microcontroller, and the microcontroller determines the operating angle for controlling the fan motor on the basis of the set values and the zero crossing of a control signal.

Abstract: A cable deflection pulley pertaining to a window lifter comprising a drive unit, a guide rail for a driver which is connected to the window and to the cable, and cable deflection pulleys with a guide or bearing groove for the cable. The device has an axially directed assembly groove in the proximity of the bearing groove to facilitate and accelerate assembly and to reduce the amount of cable required. The assembly groove contains an area adjacent to the axis of the cable deflection pulley, and an area adjacent to the bearing groove, through which the cable is pulled from the assembly groove into the bearing groove.
