  • Patent number: 11941063
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and device embodiments for implementing semantic discovery. An embodiment operates by retrieving a plurality of entities from a database instance. A semantic graph representation of the plurality of entities is generated within a graphical user interface. Context information is received from a user. A focus node is determined from the plurality of nodes using the context information. A semantic context of the focus node is determined, wherein the semantic context includes the focus node, a subset of the plurality of nodes, and subset of the plurality of edges. Responsive to the receiving, a visual indication of the semantic context is displayed within the graphical user interface.

  • Patent number: 11577312
    Abstract: A tool and die set and related method of use of the tool and die set in a press for the compaction of a powder metal into a preform involves an uneven amount of positional deflection of at least two lower or upper tool members. This asymmetrical elastic response under load may help to eliminate cracking of the part after the compressive load is removed.

  • Patent number: 7004129
    Abstract: A camshaft adjusting device for a motor vehicle has a stator and a rotor adjustable relative to the stator in a circumferential direction by a pressure medium. A restoring spring is arranged in a spring chamber and is configured to rotate the stator and the rotor relative to one another into an initial position when an engine of the motor vehicle is turned off. The restoring spring has a rotor end positive-lockingly connected to the rotor and a stator end positive-lockingly connected to the stator. One of the rotor end and the stator end is provided with a convexly curved embossment that cooperates with a convexly curved outer side of a positive-locking counter element on the rotor or stator, respectively. The embossment is provided at a radially outer end of the restoring spring. The restoring spring is a flat spiral spring.

  • Patent number: 6994199
    Abstract: The invention concerns a load torque lock for automatically locking load-side torques in the case of a decrease or cessation of a drive-side torque having a housing (11) fixed to a frame, a locking ring (17) permanently connected to it and a locking body (17) cooperating with it and revolving on the drive side, with locking devices which, on the one hand, clamp on the locking ring (17) with the occurrence of a load torque by swiveling the locking body (17) by means of locking elements (27, 28) of the output shaft (15) and, on the other hand, release from the locking ring (17) by swiveling the locking body (17) back by means of driving elements (23, 24) of the drive shaft (14). To avoid undesired friction or defective jamming of the locking devices on the locking ring (18) by the centrifugal forces of the locking body (17) it is embodied in such a way that its mass center of gravity (M) lies in the area of the rotational axis of the drive shaft and the output shaft that are aligned with one another.

  • Patent number: 6883480
    Abstract: A camshaft adjuster for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles has a stator having a casing and stays connected to the casing and projecting radially inwardly. A rotor rotatable relative to the stator is fastened on the camshaft. The rotor has a rotor base member and vanes connected thereto. The vanes project into spaces between the stator stays. The stays each have an end face that rest sealingly against the rotor base member. The vanes of the rotor each have an end face resting sealingly against an inner peripheral wall of the stator. At least one of the vanes of the rotor has a damping element and the stator has at least one counter damping element. Upon rotation of the rotor into its end position, the damping element interacts with the counter damping element and slows the movement of the rotor into the end position.

  • Publication number: 20040073408
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying the state (point of rupture 2) of electrically conductive oblong tensioning elements (1) involving the following steps: launching an electromagnetic measurment signal into a tensioning element (1a); changing the frequency; measuring the reflection spectrum, and; indentifying the state of the tensioning element (1a) according to the resonance frequencies. Said signal is lauched on the fore-part or on the periphery. In the event of coupled tensioning element (1), a scattering matrix system of equations is iteratively devised. The invention is used in the construction industry for prestressed concrete structures and rear anchored systems.

  • Patent number: 6262548
    Abstract: This invention relates to a pivot-hung door drive system with an electro-mechanical device that supplies the closing moment required for the opening and closing of the door, comprising a transmission which varies its translation ratio over the angle of rotation of the door, a guide that is connected with an output shaft and a driver roller that can execute a translation movement relative to the guide and in the guide, which driver roller is connected with a pinion that is engaged with a toothed rack that is connected with the spring system, whereby the axis of rotation of the output shaft is at a defined distance from the axis of rotation of the pinion, and the axis of rotation of the driver roller is at a defined distance from the axis of rotation of the pinion, such that when the output shaft and pinion are rotated, the translation ratio changes as a result of the changing axial distance between the output shaft and the driver roller.
