  • Patent number: 10269479
    Abstract: This application concerns a magnet having a magnet body as well as a method for manufacturing such a magnet. The magnet body has a first region with first magnetic properties and a second region with second magnetic properties that are different to the first properties. Owing to the manufacturing process of the magnet body, the relative location of the first region and the second region within the magnet body is freely predeterminable.

  • Patent number: 10194566
    Abstract: A feed-through provides electromagnetic shielding where one or more signal leads pass through an enclosure. It comprises a frame, having at least one opening, and an assembly comprising two or more joining parts, forming one or more elongated waveguides. The joining parts are divisible along the length of the waveguides, thereby being capable of surrounding a signal lead. The assembly is adapted to be attached to the frame such that one or more signal leads can pass through an opening in the frame and through one of the waveguides. Installation is of the feed-through is made easier by the opening in the frame having a larger maximum extension than the maximum extension of a waveguide.

  • Publication number: 20180277315
    Abstract: Electrical contact system with a first and a second contact (1, 5), each having a contact surface (4, 8). The first electric contact (1) has a mesostructured electric contact portion (14) with a plurality of slots (15) and ridges (16) formed between neighboring slots (16) of the plurality of slots (16). These slots (15) and ridges (16) extend in a direction running transversely to said switching plane (X-Z) form a plurality of current paths (16). The current paths (16) are inclined to the first contact surface (4) at a first angle (17) measuring less than 60 degrees such that an interruption current (12) flowing through the mesostructured electric contact portion (14) and through an electric arc (11) extending in between the first contact surface (4) after lifting the first contact surface (4) off the second contact surface (8) pushes said electric arc (11) in the direction of the apex of said first angle (17) from a first position (18) to a second position (19).

  • Publication number: 20180112881
    Abstract: The present application provides a selective catalyst reduction system for use with a combustion gas stream. The selective catalyst reduction system may include a tempering air system with a finger mixer and a number of mixing boxes positioned downstream of the finger mixer and a catalyst positioned downstream of the tempering air system. The tempering air system cools the combustion gas stream and evens out the temperature profile before the combustion gas stream reaches the catalyst.

  • Patent number: 9136044
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a cable for signal transmission and a method for producing such a cable. The cable comprises one or more wire pairs extending in a longitudinal direction, each of said wire pairs including two conductors each separately surrounded by a dielectric layer. At least one of said one or more wire pairs comprises a conductive shield being wrapped in a rotational direction along and about the longitudinal axis of the wire pair such that a longitudinal side of a wrap overlaps a preceding wrap. The conductive shield is applied with an angle (?) that differs between different wraps such that the conductive shield lay length (L) varies along the length of said cable.
