  • Patent number: 9822879
    Abstract: A metallic flat gasket with a solid bead has at least one metallic layer (2), wherein the metallic gasket comprises at least one solid bead (6), which is formed in at least one layer (2) of the metallic gasket, wherein the solid bead (6) comprises two flanks (8, 10) lying opposite one another. The gasket comprises, between the two flanks (8, 10) in the circumferential direction of the solid bead (6), at least one row (12, 14, 16) of adjacent depressions or bead sections (18, 20, 22), which in each case form an integral contour with the solid bead (6) and are orientated in the opposite direction with respect to the solid bead (6).

  • Patent number: 8151437
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for green machining bevel gears, including a CNC machining station for gear cutting a wheel blank (K2). The machining station includes a tool spindle which is used to receive a gear cutting tool and a work piece spindle which is used to receive the gear blank (K2). The machining station also relates to a machining station which operates in a vertical manner. The device also comprises a vertical processing station having a tool holder and a work piece spindle which is used to receive a work piece blank (K1). The machining station mechanically forms a functional unit together with the pre-machining station, wherein the work piece blank (K1) undergoes green machining in the pre-machining station, and is transferred as a gear blank (K2) to the first machining station after the first green machining where it is cut into a gear. The machining station and the pre-machining station are linked together in terms of data and control.
