Abstract: A method for determining total damage to at least one rotating component of a drive train in a system, in particular a wind or wave energy system, includes determining over time during operation of the system a variable characterizing a rotational speed of the component and a variable characterizing a torque transmitted by the component. A load collective is determined in a calculator unit from the temporal progression of the variables, and the total damage is determined from a comparison of the determined load collective and a reference load collective.

Abstract: A gripping device for the capturing, transporting, and placing of polysilicon rods has an electrically operated rod gripping mechanism actuated by a frame with a parallelogram structure, and two gripping segments engageable with a vertical latch element which engages upon closure and automatically unlatches in an open position. The gripping device reliably extracts and transports polysilicon rods of diverse cross-sections with minimal contamination.

Abstract: A device for reducing loads in a drive train of a wind turbine includes a machine support. The wind turbine includes a sensor means, a controllable damper means, an actuating means. The sensor means is configured to detect at least one variable characterizing vibrations and/or misalignments in the drive train. The controllable damper means is configured to produce at least one adjusting torque which compensates at least one torque associated with the load in the drive train. The actuating means is configured to actuate the damping means based on the at least one variable detected by the sensor means.

Abstract: A drive train between a rotor and a transmission having a torque support for a wind turbine generator system, including a rotor shaft extending from the rotor and supported in this area by a first rotor shaft bearing and extending to the transmission for converting the rotor speed into a desired generator speed, wherein the rotor shaft is supported by a second rotor shaft bearing formed in the manner of a moment bearing which is arranged on the input side within the transmission in order to receive the partial rotor forces, moments and weight forces and to directly pass them on to the torque support.

Abstract: A drive train for harnessing the energy of a fluid flow includes a rotor configured to be driven by the fluid flow, a transmission that is connected to the rotor at the input end, either directly or indirectly via the rotor shaft or other components, and a generator that is connected to the transmission at the output end. A lubricant system supplies lubricant to one of the drive train components as well as to another drive train component.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for mechanically joining stacked, plate-shaped objects, especially metal sheets by means of punch riveting with a semitubular rivet while using tools placed above and below the objects, whereby the semitubular rivet linearly penetrates into the objects. The inventive method is characterized in that, during the axial feed motion of the semitubular rivet, the upper tool and/or a portion of the lower tool is/are subjected to a wobbling additional movement in a radial and/or tangential direction. The invention also relates to an apparatus and to the semitubular rivet which are used for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A transmission, especially for wind power installations includes a planetary stage on the input side that is mounted upstream of at least one gear stage. The planetary stage includes at least two power-splitting planetary gears that are mounted in parallel. A differential gear that is mounted downstream of the power-splitting planetary gears compensates for an unequal load distribution between the individual planetary gears caused by their parallel disposition.
