  • Monitoring device for a slipform paver for monitoring the compaction of concrete and a method for monitoring the compaction of concrete during operation of a slipform paver
    Patent number: 11525224
    Abstract: A device is provided for monitoring the compaction of concrete introduced into a slipform of a slipform paver by means of at least one concrete compacting device that has an asynchronous motor for driving an unbalanced mass which generates vibrations. The monitoring device comprises an apparatus for monitoring the stator current of the asynchronous motor, the apparatus being configured such that a change in the compaction of the concrete is determined based on an analysis of the stator current. The apparatus for monitoring the stator current of the asynchronous motor is preferably configured such that the amplitude spectrum of the stator current is determined in order to analyse the stator current. It is advantageous that the compaction of the concrete is not monitored using sensors which are exposed to harsh ambient conditions during operation of the slipform paver.

  • Transesterification catalysts fixed to solid support materials
    Patent number: 6248899
    Abstract: A description is given of a process for the transesterification of carboxylic esters, characterized in that the catalyst used is a tin(IV) compound comprising a radical of the formula bound to an inorganic support, where L is an at least divalent radical and at least one of the free valences of the Si in formula (I) is bound to the inorganic support, novel tin(IV) compounds and their preparation.
