Publication number: 20120148711Abstract: An installation for producing cast products includes a tempering machine for at least some of the casting mass, a storage container for the casting mass, a casting machine, and a device for further processing the cast products. At least some of the casting mass is fed to the storage container from the tempering machine, depending on at least one controlling or regulating signal which is based on current and/or expected consumption of casting mass by the casting machine and/or the casting installation. As a result, the installation can be operated at lower cost and extreme fluctuations in the filling level of the storage container can be better prevented, avoiding interruptions in the supply of casting mass to the casting machine.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2011Publication date: June 14, 2012Applicant: BUHLER AGInventors: Bernhard Bauer, Peter Braun, Peter Rothenbühler

Patent number: 7962269Abstract: A method and an arrangement (15) for detecting the actuation of an operator-controlled element (1) make possible a reliable detection of an operator-controlled function to be activated by the operator-controlled element (1) independently of environmental and wear conditions. The operator-controlled element (1) can be actuated with different adjustable degrees of actuation. Various operator-controlled functions of the operator-controlled element (1) are realized in dependence upon the degree of actuation. The operator-controlled element (1) is actuated against a spring force and at least two degrees of actuation are characterized by different spring constants. The at least one of the operator-controlled functions of the operator-controlled element (1) is detected in dependence upon the spring constant assigned to the instantaneous degree of actuation.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2004Date of Patent: June 14, 2011Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Thomas Klotzbuecher, Bernhard Bauer, Harald Kazmierczak, Sebastien Weiss

Patent number: 7221548Abstract: A test circuit is provided, which is independent of a power supply and which enables a circuit breaker to be tested in a reliable manner. The test circuit includes a test coil which is devoid of electric potential and is wound around a totalizing current transformer. The test coil is preferably short circuited using a test switch and a connectable load. This simulates the occurrence of a residual current. The selection of an appropriate connectable load allows the sensitivity of the current circuit breaker to be tested in an advantageous manner.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2001Date of Patent: May 22, 2007Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventor: Bernhard Bauer

Publication number: 20070103988Abstract: A circuit configuration controls an inductive consumer, especially protecting the consumer from being accidentally turned on. The circuit configuration contains a free-wheeling circuit for reducing energy stored in the consumer. In order to prevent the consumer from being accidentally turned on when a grounding wire between an energy store and the circuit configuration is interrupted, the free-wheeling circuit is interrupted after a given period of time once the consumer has been turned off such that the consumer is prevented from being charged by a current flowing from the positive pole of the energy store via the electronics of the circuit configuration and the free-wheeling circuit.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2004Publication date: May 10, 2007Inventors: Bernhard Bauer, Mauricio Hernandez-Distancia, Milan Krstev
