  • Publication number: 20240189923
    Abstract: Methods for counterbalancing a weight force of an object fastenable to a traction cable. A system is configured to carry out a counterbalancing operation with respect to the weight force of the object. This counterbalancing operation can be performed in that a rotational speed of the motor and/or a derivation of the rotational speed of the motor is determined, wherein a current setpoint value can be stored as a controlled variable in the system. The rotational speed of the motor or a derivation thereof corresponds to a weight force of the object. Alternatively, a current value required for maintaining the first position of the object or a motor torque required for this purpose can be stored in the system and the weight force of the object can be counterbalanced using the previously stored current values or torques. In further aspects, the invention relates to a system and to an electronic module.

  • Publication number: 20240183489
    Abstract: A system for counterbalancing a weight force of an object is provided. The object is fastenable to a traction cable, wherein the traction cable is guided in or on a cantilever in the direction of a back structure of the system, wherein a second end of the cantilever can be accommodated by a back structure, and the system can be carried by a user of the system via the back structure. The system is characterized by an electronic module which includes an apparatus for winding up the traction cable and a motor for driving the apparatus for winding up the traction cable, wherein the system is configured to determine a counterforce for the weight force of the object and to transmit same to the object. It is particularly preferred for the purposes of the invention that a control device of the system is configured to adjust a counterforce with respect to the weight force of the object.

  • Publication number: 20230339142
    Abstract: A power tool for processing a substrate, the power tool being designed for analyzing a composition of the substrate and including at least one recorder for recording an operating parameter of the power tool. A method for analyzing a composition of a substrate that is being processed by a proposed power tool is also provided. The analysis of the composition of the substrate takes place on the basis of the at least one recorded operating parameter which is recorded with the recording means, the analysis being performed in the power tool itself and during its operation.

  • Patent number: 10821630
    Abstract: A method for controlling a wall saw system during creation of a separating cut in a workpiece. The wall saw system includes a saw head, a pivotable saw arm, a first saw blade, and a larger second saw blade. The separating cut is performed in a plurality of main cuts, where the parameters of the main cuts (saw blade diameter of the saw blade used, main-cut angle) are defined before the start in a main-cut sequence. After the processing of the separating cut by the first saw blade is concluded, the controlled processing of the separating cut is interrupted by a control unit and the wall saw is moved into a parking position such that all actions of the saw-blade change (swinging out the saw arm, removing the first saw blade, installing the second saw blade, and swinging in the saw arm) can be performed.

  • Patent number: 10569446
    Abstract: A method for controlling a wall saw system during creation of a separation cut in a workpiece between a first and second end point, is disclosed. The separation cut is carried out in a plurality of main cuts. In addition to the main-cut sequence, an overcut sequence having at least two overcuts is defined for each end point defined as a free end point. For each overcut sequence, a starting position and an end position are defined, the overcuts being carried out therebetween. The wall saw is positioned in the starting position and is pivoted into a first overcut angle; subsequently, the saw head is moved by way of the inclined saw arm until the end position has been reached. The wall saw is displaced back into the starting position and pivoted into a second overcut angle. This sequence is repeated until all of the overcuts have been carried out.

  • Patent number: 10513050
    Abstract: A method for controlling a wall saw system during the creation of a separating cut in a workpiece. The movement of the saw head is controlled at the end points such that a boundary of the wall saw facing the end point coincides with the end point after the pivoting movement of the saw arm. In the case of a free end point, the boundary of the wall saw is formed by an upper exit point of the saw blade. In the case of an obstacle, the boundary of the wall saw is formed by the saw blade edge of the saw blade if the processing occurs without the blade guard or by the blade guard edge of the blade guard if the processing occurs with the blade guard.

  • Patent number: 10300629
    Abstract: A method for controlling a wall system when creating a separating cut in a workpiece between a first and a second end point is disclosed. The wall saw system includes a wall saw having a saw head, a pivotable saw arm, a saw blade and a blade guard. The separating cut is carried out in a plurality of main cuts. The pivoting movement of the saw arm in a main cutting angle is carried out in at least two steps with at least one intermediate angle, where a free cut of the saw blade is carried out in the respective intermediate angle between the pivoting movements of the saw arm.

  • Publication number: 20170282406
    Abstract: A method for controlling a wall saw system during creation of a separation cut in a workpiece between a first and second end point, where at least one of the end points is defined as an obstacle, is disclosed. The separation cut is carried out in a plurality of main cuts. In addition to a main-cut sequence, a corner-cut sequence having at least two corner cuts is defined for each end point defined as an obstacle. For each corner-cut sequence, a starting position and an end position are defined, the corner cuts being carried out therebetween. The wall saw is positioned in the starting position and is pivoted into a first corner-cut angle. Subsequently, the saw head is moved by way of the inclined saw arm until the end position has been reached. The wall saw is displaced back into the starting position and pivoted into a second corner-cut angle.
