Abstract: A method for producing iron metal castings, wherein an expendable mold having a cavity for holding casting material is inserted into an opened multi-part permanent mold, the permanent mold is closed, the cavity is filled with casting material, wherein a supporting device partially protruding into the cavity is partially overcast, the expendable mold is cooled in the permanent mold after the filling, the permanent mold is opened during the cooling, after the liquidus temperature has been fallen below at the earliest, and the expendable mold is nondestructively removed from the permanent mold together with the casting, the expendable mold is further cooled together with the solidified casting while hanging on the supporting device, at least until the microstructure formation of the casting is concluded, the casting is demolded by removing the expendable mold.
Abstract: The invention relates to a space-saving isolating arrester, having for at least two electronic components (EB1, EB2) to be monitored, with the electronic components to be monitored being fastened to a carrier (P) using a thermally softenable fixing means, with an energy accumulator (D1,D2) being arranged on each of the electronic components which—when a thermally softenable fixing means softens—displaces the associated electronic component substantially parallel to the carrier (P), thereby disconnecting the associated electronic component, and also having a mechanically displaceable display means (ANZ), with the mechanically displaceable display means indicating that one or more of the electronic components to be monitored has been disconnected, and with the mechanically displaceable display means (ANZ) being displaced by a disconnecting electronic component.

Abstract: A machine element has individual ring components (10, 12) fixable to third components such as axles, hubs or shafts by internal and/or external threads. One ring component (10) can be moved in an axial direction relative to another ring component (12), by clamping screws (18). The two ring components (10, 12) are independent components that delimit a separation space (22) with their adjacent mutually facing end-faces. The separation space opens on all sides to the surroundings. Only the clamping screws (18) of the adjusting device pass through the separation space (22).
Abstract: A power electronic arrangement has a power converter module, and a first and a second DC voltage terminal element and a first and a second DC voltage connection element, connected to conductor tracks in an electrically conductive manner with the correct polarity. First and second DC voltage terminal element, and the first and second DC voltage connection element, form a stack with an insulation device therebetween. The first DC voltage terminal element has a first recess enclosed in a first main plane, the second DC voltage connection element has a second recess enclosed and aligned with the first in a third main plane, the second DC voltage terminal element and the first DC voltage connection element are in a second main plane between the first and third main plane, and are laterally spaced from each other proximate the recesses.

Abstract: A label with which an opening situated in a wall can be covered comprises a gas-permeable element (30) that is embedded between a base layer (10) and a top layer (20). Base layer and top layer have openings (11, 21) that overlap one another. The gas-permeable element is disposed between an adhesive layer (102) of the base layer and the top layer (20). According to embodiments, the opening of the top layer can project (A) beyond the edge of the opening of the lower layer and/or the top layer can project (B) beyond the outer edge of the lower layer. The label demonstrates sufficient mechanical stability and prevents the escape of adhesive.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an article whose surface has been at least partly sealed and to methods of its sealing, the sealing layer comprising a reactive melt layer and a coating layer. The invention provides a method of sealing at least part of the surface of an article, comprising the steps of: (a) applying a reactive melt layer based on polyurethane to at least one part of the surface of the article; (b) smoothing the reactive melt layer; and (c) applying a coating material to form a coating layer on the reactive melt layer, the coating layer being applied before the full curing of the reactive melt layer.

Abstract: Embodiments related to retransmission in a communication system are described and depicted. In one embidiment, a retransmission entity repeats a transmission of a data transfer unit by the device after a predetermined number of other transmitted data transfer units has been transmitted. The retransmission entity may also determine whether a measure for a time period since the first transmission of the data transfer unit by the device has exceeded a predetermined threshold and to provide a final transmission of the data transfer unit based on the determining that the measure for the time period has exceeded the predetermined threshold.
