  • Patent number: 7534969
    Abstract: A carrier including a cable channel for an electric lamp. The carrier includes two flat covering layers and one middle layer. The middle layer includes two separate elements parallel to the axis of the cable channel, whose joint layer thickness and mutual distance correspond to the width or height of the cable channel. The three layers are glued or welded to each other.

  • Patent number: 7033417
    Abstract: The invention relates to the reduction of fine ores, whereby in a multi-stage gas suspension preheater the fine ores are preheated, calcined and then reduced in at least one lowest heat exchanger stage with the addition of a reducing agent in a delivered hot gas stream. The principal part of the reducing heat treatment of the fine ores is carried out in a reactor loop constructed in the lowest heat exchanger stage of the gas suspension preheater. The reactor loop has an uptake conduit section and a curved section adjoining the uptake conduit section and with which the reactor loop opens into at least one precipitating cyclone which is disposed downstream and for this purpose a hot reducing gas is introduced into the rising hot gas stream.

  • Patent number: 5297316
    Abstract: An apparatus for producing fiber material or the like with a prescribable feed weight comprises a conveyor for delivering the fiber flock to a filling stack, which includes a vibrating wall extending in a vertical direction and a displaceable wall, a stationary delivery roller being arranged in a discharge region of the filling stack and a displaceable delivery roller being arranged opposite the stationary roller in the discharge region for controlling the thickness of the layer being deposited on a conveyor. The apparatus also includes a pressure sensor which is provided between the two delivery rollers, which pressure sensor provides signals for controlling the displacement of the displaceable delivery roller, the vibratory frequency for the vibrating wall of the stack and the displacement of the movable wall.

  • Patent number: 4961258
    Abstract: The invention refers to a decorative column, especially made of wood, which consists of a stack (1) of elements (3) cut out of plates or boards, the main surface of the stacking elements being placed perpendicular to the stacking axis (5) which coincides with the column axis. Such columns may be especially used as wainscoting of metal supports in buildings but also as support elements of table plates or simply as decorative objects.

  • Patent number: 4523350
    Abstract: Carder for manufacturing non-woven formed fabric from fibrous substances comprising a plurality of principal rollers and workers and clearers working with said principal rollers, comprising a draw-in roller (1) and a licker-in (2) running in the same direction and with high drawing, comprising a first principal roller (3) running in a direction opposite the licker-in (2) and with low drawing, comprising at least one pair of rollers consisting of a worker (4) and a clearer (5) cooperating with said first principal roller (3), and comprising a first matting roller (8) running in the same direction as said first principal roller (3) and with low crushing or with low drawing, whereby the draw-in roller (1), the licker-in (2), the principal rollers (3, 9), the matting rollers (8, 12), the doffing cylinders (13, 18) and the second crushing cylinders (15, 20) are driven by respectively separate, independently controllable motors such that a change of the speed of the principal roller (3) effects a change of the spee
