Publication number: 20120145250Abstract: The invention proposes a sanitary valve device in which a temperature limiting valve is used to protect a user from water that is too cold. The valve device is designed such that when a water outlet, for example a shower, is switched on, the water is first passed through a first water duct containing the temperature limiting valve, in which duct the temperature limiting valve permits the passage of water below a limit temperature, but blocks it off when above the limit temperature. The fact that either no water or a heavily reduced quantity of water is discharged from the outlet of the sanitary fitting indicates to the user that the cold water has flowed away. He can now operate the changeover valve to directly draw hot water, the temperature limiting valve now being switched off.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2011Publication date: June 14, 2012Applicant: Hansgrohe AGInventors: Bernd Werner, Hubert Schmitt

Publication number: 20100225214Abstract: A cover is designed such that it can be fastened to and removed from a housing without a tool, wherein the cover can be plugged by a protruding engagement section into the housing to a variable depth. The engagement section has a retaining device which has a U-shaped retaining spring which is mounted on the cover in the plug-in direction and is intended for the supporting clamping bearing against an inner wall of the housing for fastening purposes. The retaining spring has a mounting section and an outwardly pointing retaining arm, with a free space in between in which the clamping section engages in order to press apart the retaining spring and to prevent a movement of the retaining spring away from the clamping bearing against the inner wall of the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2010Publication date: September 9, 2010Inventors: Bernd Werner, Juergen Gross

Patent number: 6328247Abstract: A cheese-producing textile machine (1), having a central control unit (37), a plurality of work stations (2), and a service unit (23), which automatically supplies the work stations (2). The work stations (2) each have a winding device with a winding drum (17), which is individually driven by a motor, and a work station computer (39). The central control unit (37) is connected via a machine bus (40) with the work station computers (39) and with a control device (39) of the service unit (23). Specific winding drum data (x, y), in particular the number of traverses (g) of the winding drum (17) of the work stations (2), are stored in a memory, e.g., integrated in the central control unit (37). During the yarn pickup by means of the yarn lifter (41) of the service unit (23) in the course of a cheese change, the individual electric motor drive (50) of the winding drum (17) is controlled to match the number of revolutions of the winding drum (17) to the number of traverses (g) thereof.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 1999Date of Patent: December 11, 2001Assignee: W. Schlafhorst AG & Co.,Inventors: Ulrich Fechter, Bernd Werner

Patent number: 5924725Abstract: A steering wheel unit for mounting on a steering column of a motor vehicle has a steering wheel including an inner frame with a steering wheel rim and with at least one spoke connected to the steering wheel rim and extending radially inwardly toward a steering column. The steering wheel includes a molded plastic envelope enclosing the inner frame. An air-bag anti-impact device is mounted on the steering wheel. A cap for covering the air-bag anti-impact device is provided. The air-bag anti-impact device has a folded air-bag and a gas producer for inflating the air-bag when tripped. The air-bag has a delimiting edge and is connected with the delimiting edge to the steering wheel to thereby delimit a gas inlet opening for gas produced by the gas producer upon tripping. The cap is opened by the force of the air-bag when being inflated by the gas producer.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1996Date of Patent: July 20, 1999Assignee: Autoliv Development ABInventors: Michel Kozyreff, Bernd Werner, Josef Egger, Sonja Kuchler

Patent number: 5000479Abstract: A housing for a gas generator for inflating a safety bag in a passenger vehicle is constructed of modular units preferably having a tubular or cylindrical tubular configuration. At least one combustion chamber and one filter casing are joined to each other so that the longitudinal axes of the units align with each other longitudinally. An axially facing gas exit from the combustion chamber into the filter casing provides an initially axial gas flow which is then diverted radially outwardly from the filter casing into the safety bag.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 1989Date of Patent: March 19, 1991Assignee: Bayern-Chemie Gesellschaft fuer Flugchemische Antriebe mbHInventors: Bernd Werner, Karl-Erik Nilsson

Patent number: 4998750Abstract: A gas generator has a gas generating combustion chamber with an igniter or fuse for igniting an ignitable charge needed for the gas generation. At least one filter housing is attached to the gas generating chamber. The generated pressurized gases enter into the filter housing in one direction, for example an axial direction, and pass out of the filter in another direction, for example in a radial direction, under the influence of a gas flow distribution member which makes sure that the filter volume is efficiently used by uniformly distributing the gas volume throughout the filter volume. The gas exiting from the filter housing inflates a safety bag for the protection of persons in a vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 1989Date of Patent: March 12, 1991Assignee: Bayern-chemie Gesellschaft fuer Flugchemisch Antriebe mbHInventors: Bernd Werner, Harald Voggenreiter
