  • Patent number: 11718049
    Abstract: A treatment machine comprises at least two successive zones in an extraction direction of the material web between which a neutral zone is provided. In the neutral zone, a nozzle arrangement is provided adjacent to a zone exit wall and/or to a leading neutral zone wall on the one hand, and/or adjacent to the chamber inlet wall and/or a trailing neutral zone wall on the other hand, via which nozzle arrangement a gaseous fluid flow reaching a material web is generated. The nozzle arrangement is designed as follows: the respective gaseous fluid flow is directed at a blowing angle in the direction of the adjacent zone exit wall and/or the leading neutral zone wall or the zone inlet wall and/or the trailing neutral zone wall; and the gaseous fluid flow flows as far as the material web, following the zone exit wall, the leading neutral zone wall or the zone inlet wall and/or the trailing neutral zone wall.

  • Patent number: 11465331
    Abstract: A film stretching system having the following features: a stretching oven having a plurality of treatment zones through which a plastic foil film can be guided from a feed side to an outlet side through the stretching oven in the drawing-off direction, supply air can be supplied to the respective treatment zone and exhaust air can be discharged therefrom, the ventilation system for the treatment zones is constructed in such a way that exhaust air extracted from the last treatment zone in the drawing-off direction of the plastic foil film is supplied to at least two upstream treatment zones in the drawing-off direction of the plastic foil film, wherein a volume fraction of the exhaust air extracted from the last treatment zone is supplied to only one of the at least two treatment zones and another volume fraction is supplied to only one other of the at least two treatment zones.

  • Patent number: 6952973
    Abstract: In a method for fastening a torque measurement device for detecting a relative torque between an input shaft and an output shaft of a steering system, e.g., of a rack-and-pinion power-assisted steering system, the torque measurement device is integrally formed locally into the input shaft and/or the output shaft by deformation elements.
