  • Patent number: 10514116
    Abstract: A pipe connection for conducting a fluid that is under pressure is provided, having two tubular connection parts for a conical clamping connection, which are screwed together by a union nut while one is inserted in the other, wherein each connection part has a conical sealing surface that contacts the other in a sealing manner and wherein an annular groove is provided in one of the sealing surfaces. In order to enable the pipe connection also to conduct a fluid having cycling or varying temperature, the inner of the two connection parts has thermal insulation on the inside of the pipe at least in the axial segment of the sealing surface of the connection part, wherein the thermal insulation tube has a cam or a collar on the outer surface, which engages in a recess, which is axially bounded by the two connection parts.

  • Patent number: 5748479
    Abstract: The production of mineral wool takes place by melting stones, with the melt being supplied to a defibration unit. During this production process hot inclusions which are detrimental to further processing and to the final product may get into the mineral wool. To provide a method suitable for producing a homogeneous web of mineral wool free from influences by hot inclusions, the position of the hot inclusions are localized by a sensor. Position measuring data is used for controlling the nozzle system which acts upon the hot inclusions.

  • Patent number: 5331742
    Abstract: The invention relates to end cutters, in particular for cutting through cables, having two flat loose blades which are located one on top of the other, and rotatable about a common rotation shaft and can be driven by means of a drive device. Each loose blade is in this case acted on by a suitable cam disc which is located in the plane of the blade and is coupled to the drive device. A desired force response while cutting up material in the form of ropes can be achieved in a simple manner by selection of the radii of the cam discs.

  • Patent number: 5228325
    Abstract: Pliers having a pair of handles and a pair of shank members have one member of a die pair for treating a workpiece on each of the shank members. The die members are attached to the inner sides of the shank members rotatably about an axis situated in the tool plane, and a follower is provided to ensure their corotation. The workpiece may be introduced into the die pair frontally or laterally, depending on the rotational position of the die pair. In one embodiment, the die members are also pivotable about axes extending at right angles to the tool plane. The pliers may be used in many applications such as crimping electrical terminals.

  • Patent number: 5009525
    Abstract: A roller seating for swivel motions includes an outer ring, an inner ring and roller rolling in between which are inserted individually between spacers of a flectionally elastic cage. On at least one end of the spacers, one or more projections directed radially outward and/or radially inward have been formed which face, radially and/or axially, a revolving shoulder surface of the outer ring or the inner ring. In order to keep the play of the rollers between the spacers on the circumferential side as small as desired, each projection of the cage is arranged in such manner that it pushes against the circumference of the corresponding shoulder surface of the outer ring or the inner ring and brings the holding surfaces of the spacers against the rollers due to the elastic deformation of the cage.
