  • Publication number: 20230049915
    Abstract: A device for scattered light measurement of particles in a gas, comprising a light source, a beam splitter which splits a light beam emitted by the light source into a measuring beam and a reference beam, a light receiving device arranged at a distance from the beam splitter, which comprises at least one lens arranged in the reference beam with an optical axis aligned at an acute angle to the measuring beam, a first light receiver on the side of the lens facing away from the beam splitter, for receiving the scattered light imaged by the latter from a measurement volume in a gas-bearing region between the beam splitter and the lens, and a second light receiver on the side of the lens facing away from the beam splitter for receiving the reference beam imaged by the latter.

  • Patent number: 10612171
    Abstract: The invention relates to a bobbin carrier for receiving a bobbin which is set up for unwinding a strand material, wherein the bobbin carrier is provided for use in a braiding, winding or spiraling machine and is set up to rotate relative to the machine during operation of the latter. The bobbin carrier has a tensile-force measuring device for measuring the tensile force of the strand material unwound from the bobbin and has a first data transfer device for transferring data. According to the invention, the first data transfer device is set up to transfer measured tensile force values to a second data transfer device arranged outside the bobbin carrier. As a result, too low or too high tensile forces in the strand material can be detected early at the individual bobbin carriers.

  • Publication number: 20170298546
    Abstract: The invention relates to a bobbin carrier 7 for receiving a bobbin 2 which is set up for unwinding a strand material I, wherein the bobbin carrier 7 is provided for use in a braiding, winding or spiralling machine and is set up to rotate relative to the machine during operation of the latter. The bobbin carrier 7 has a tensile-force measuring device 3 for measuring the tensile force of the strand material I unwound from the bobbin 2 and has a first data transfer device 4 for transferring data. According to the invention, the first data transfer device 4 is set up to transfer measured tensile force values to a second data transfer device 5 arranged outside the bobbin carrier. As a result, too low or too high tensile forces in the strand material I can be detected early at the individual bobbin carriers 7.

  • Publication number: 20130319069
    Abstract: A method la proposed for producing a plate heat exchanger with flow channels through which a first and a second medium flow, the flow channels formed for the first medium between individual plates joined together to form a pair of plates, and for the second medium between pairs of plates joined together to form a stack of plates. For a cost-effective production of countercurrent flow plates and cross flow plates within a single manufacturing plant, the individual plates are produced from a non-pressed plate blank, wherein first a tool is converted with exchangeable mold members for producing cross flow plates or countercurrent flow plates, and subsequently, the plate blank is pressed by the converted tool into a cross flow plate or a countercurrent flow plate, thereby forming corresponding edges and/or contact surfaces as well as inflow and outflow cross-sections.

  • Patent number: 8322251
    Abstract: A transmission arrangement (1) with at least two countershafts for a vehicle, in particular a utility vehicle is proposed, such that an auxiliary drive output (10) can be coupled by means of a torque-transmitting element (11) to a first countershaft (7), and such that a second countershaft (8) can be coupled with a transmission brake device (12) to bring about load equalization between the countershafts (7, 8) when the auxiliary output (10) is coupled to the first countershaft (7). In addition, a method is proposed for load equalization between the countershafts (7, 8) of a transfer transmission when an auxiliary output (10) is engaged, such that in a first shift position of a main group (2) of the transfer transmission, in which the second countershaft (8), not coupled to the auxiliary output (10), is free from load, a load torque is applied to the second countershaft (8) for load equalization.
