  • Patent number: 11749977
    Abstract: A device is used to sever an electrical power cable for the transmission of high voltage. The device includes a frame having first movable cutting blade carried thereon and second stationary cutting blades carried thereon. The blades can sever the electrical power cable upon movement of the first cutting blade relative to the frame. A sensor is provided and is configured to register a position of the first cutting blade relative to the frame. An evaluation and/or transmission controller is configured to receive information from the sensor and interrupt severing of the electrical power cable by the blades in response to the information.

  • Patent number: 11684984
    Abstract: A tool configured to cut a workpiece includes a tool head which has a receiving contour in which the workpiece is received, and a movable cutting edge with a cutting contour. In the course of a cutting process, the cutting edge passes through the receiving contour. The cutting edge is subjected to the effect of an advancement part and can be moved to such an extent in the cutting direction(s) that it can pass all the way through the workpiece. In an embodiment, a position of the cutting edge reached after the cutting edge has passed all the way through the workpiece, the cutting edge, with removal from the advancement part, can be moved out from the cutting direction(s).

  • Patent number: 11285596
    Abstract: A working tool has a working head and a body device. In an embodiment, an electric motor having a drive shaft with a longitudinal axis, and a transmission are connected to each other and are in the body device. In an embodiment, the working head is a hydraulic cylinder with a hydraulic piston that can be moved between extended and retracted positions in a direction of travel. A hydraulic medium pump and a drive for the hydraulic medium are provided in the body device. In an embodiment, the transmission is connected to the electric motor so as to be movable in the direction of the longitudinal axis in such a way that it is limited by a limit stop. In an embodiment, the hydraulic cylinder is attached to the body device so as to be movable in the direction of travel that it is limited by a limit stop.

  • Publication number: 20210039074
    Abstract: A method for preparing a silver impregnation solution comprises (a) charging a neutralization reactor R1 with an aqueous organic amine; (b) adding oxalic acid powder through a first feeding conduit to the neutralization reactor R1 to obtain an aqueous oxalic acid-organic amine solution; (c) directing the aqueous oxalic acid-organic amine solution from the neutralization reactor to a complexation reactor R2; (d) adding particulate silver oxide through a second feeding conduit to the complexation reactor R2 to obtain a silver impregnation solution; and, optionally, (e) subjecting the silver impregnation solution to filtration. The silver impregnation solution is used for producing a catalyst effective in the oxidative conversion of ethylene to ethylene oxide. The method allows for the preparation of a silver impregnation solution in an efficient and occupationally and environmentally safe way.
