  • Patent number: 6951444
    Abstract: The invention relates to a stationary blade (12) for a gas turbine (1) with a hollow sectional element (22) which extends radially with respect to the rotor (3) and has a platform (23) at each of its two ends, with a hollow inset (20) which is located in the sectional element (22) a certain distance from the inside (28) of the sectional element (22) and has a base (35) which faces one of the two platforms (23), with a coolant (K) flowing into the hollow space (21) of the inset (20) and flowing out through baffle cooling openings (29) provided on the inset (20) and with a recess (24) that is provided in the platform (23) located immediately opposite the base (35). To specify a stationary blade (12) for which there is no mechanical damage during turbine operation it is proposed that the inset (20) extends into the recess (24) so that in the base area (30) of the inset (20) there are zones with reduced predefined flow rates.

  • Patent number: 6940247
    Abstract: The PDT2 filtering element (PDT2) and a Cauer filter (C2) are employed for use in control tasks of automation engineering, in particular for a filter connected downstream of a rotational speed controller. For tasks in control engineering, these have the advantage of a higher level of robustness, since a large frequency range is filtered, and a substantially smaller phase drop than conventional lowpass filters (PDT2). Consequently, by comparison with the known prior art a loss in dynamics is substantially minimized with these phase-saving lowpass filters, and an optimum is achieved in robustness and dynamics.

  • Patent number: 6922878
    Abstract: A method and a device for rolling a metal strip (1) in a rolling train, the rolling train having at least two rolling stands, the metal strip (1) having at least two partial areas (3, 4) of different thicknesses, which are connected to one another via a wedge-shaped or approximately wedge-shaped transition piece (2), and the rolling velocity of a rolling stand, during the rolling of the wedge-shaped or approximately wedge-shaped transition piece (2), being set as a function of the forward slip of the rolling stand and of the temperature of the metal strip.

  • Patent number: 6728120
    Abstract: The invention relates to a voltage intermediate circuit converter having a 12-pulse input converter (2), having a voltage intermediate circuit (12) and having a machine converter (14) using three-point switching. According to the invention, the two converter elements (4, 6) of the input converter (2) have a respective self-commutated pulse-controlled converter (41, 61). An input converter (2) is thus obtained, which links the advantages of a diode front end and an active front end with one another.

  • Patent number: 6523675
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mail-item container of a sorting device for the controlled transfer of a flat mail item into stationary sorting containers, the container having a stationary wall part and a movable wall part that is disposed at the front in the transport direction, and is inclined counter to the transport direction and has a slide part. In accordance with the invention, the slide part is embodied to swing, completely or partially, such that the front portions of the mail items are given momentum as they slide out, due to a swinging movement of the slide part that is initiated by the opening of the movable wall part, the momentum preventing short mail items from overturning due to the torque generated by gravity; the swinging duration is at least long enough that the respective short mail item has already exited the slide part at the time of the next swinging movement directed at the mail items.

  • Patent number: 6317075
    Abstract: An FMCW sensor in which a transmission signal is generated from a high frequency of a fixed frequency oscillator and a modulated, low frequency of a second oscillator. The modulated frequency is processed in a delay line with a surface wave component to form a reference signal. A transmission mixer with a hybrid coupler having a 90° phase difference and terminated by diodes is employed in a transmission/reception means. A measured signal from the transmission mixer together with the reference signal is interpreted in an evaluation means.

  • Patent number: 5654999
    Abstract: A liquid metal plain bearing has a rotating and a stationary bearing part between which a bearing gap filled with liquid metal is located. The rotating bearing part has in relation at least one ring groove arranged to the bearing gap so that liquid metal possibly emerging from the bearing becomes located in the ring groove during the operation of the bearing and is held in the ring groove by the effect of centrifugal force.

  • Patent number: 4876322
    Abstract: Linear fluorooligomers having at least two reactive end groups per polymer molecule are incorporated into radiation sensitive polymer systems which have improved continuous temperature resistance and low dielectric constant. The polymer systems can be applied as lacquers. Preferably perfluorated poly-ethers and perfluorated alkanes are used as starting compounds. The polymeric product is usable as a coating for the production of printed multi-layer wirings and economises on through-bores and additional copper intermediate layers. A further field of application exists in the field of integrated semiconductor circuits in VLSI-technology for the production of negative photo-resists.
