  • Patent number: 8063517
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to create a combined linear-rotary drive that has a compact, simple, and inexpensive design. Said aim is achieved by a combined drive comprising a linear driving device (3) and a rotary driving device (11), at least one of the two driving devices being provided with a hybrid reluctance motor. It is particularly advantageous to embody both driving devices as hybrid reluctance motors such that the rotor (4) can be produced at a low cost without permanent magnets in addition to ensuring that the drive has a very compact design.

  • Publication number: 20100319442
    Abstract: In a method according to the invention for testing a drive arrangement and an accordingly equipped converter, an actual torsional backlash of an engine brake, which is preferably configured as a spring-operated brake, is determined and compared to a permitted torsional backlash. To this end, a test torque, which is smaller than a holding torque of the brake, is moved counter to the closed brake up to a stop, preferably in both directions of rotation. The testing method can be implemented as a routine check in a converter of the drive arrangement.
