  • Patent number: 6439019
    Abstract: A roller cage (6) is provided for a minimum of one work roller (3) of a tool for deep rolling of grooves or radii of a crankshaft bearing (1) where the work roller (3) at a section of its circumference is loosely guided by the roller cage (6) or inside a concave void of the roller cage (6). Portions of the roller cage (6) by which the work roller (3) is guided, consist of a material that dispenses solid lubricant to the work roller (3).

  • Patent number: 6426574
    Abstract: In an air-cooled electrical machine having reverse cooling in a closed cooling circuit, a two-stage blade cascade for the optimum incident flow of cooling air to the rotor (4) and the rotor winding (29) is provided between a rotor cap plate (22) and a rotor shaft (28). The first blade cascade stage (30b) in the direction of flow is a deceleration cascade having pressure-generating properties, and the following blade cascade stage (30a) in the direction of flow is a deceleration cascade having deflecting properties.

  • Patent number: 6389861
    Abstract: A roller cage (1) is provided with a prismatic base body for guiding a minimum of one work roller designed for deep rolling of grooves on crankshaft journals or crank pins, in a first (7, 8) concave recess on one of the two faces (5) of the prismatic body on a section of the circumference of the work roller, wherein the rotational axis of the work roller is inclined at an angle (10), in which the section guided inside the roller cage (1) has a shorter distance to the longitudinal center (C—C) of the prismatic body than the remaining section with a first, groove shaped recess (11) along the longitudinal center (C—C) of the base area (3) of the prismatic body, as a passage for one support roller for the work roller, and a second groove shaped recess (12) along the longitudinal center (C—C) on the side (2) of the prismatic body located opposite the first groove shaped recess (11), for support of the roller cage (1) on the end of the long leg of an L-shaped tool holder, by providing on the secon

  • Patent number: 5883448
    Abstract: In the case of an air-cooled electric machine with reverse cooling in the closed cooling circuit, a cooling arrangement is arranged in a foundation pit (10) underneath the machine and constructed in a modular fashion. It comprises a plurality of coolers (11) which are arranged independently of one another in the foundation pit (10) and separated from one another by separating walls extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the machine. The outlet openings of the coolers (11) are freely connected to cold-gas chambers (14, 16) between the machine housing (1) and stator laminated core (2). The inlet openings of the coolers (11) are freely connected to the outflow spaces of the two fans (12) at the machine end faces. This design permits rapid exchange and/or shutdown of a cooler in addition to optimum guidance of cooling gas.

  • Patent number: 4317563
    Abstract: A blowing arrangement for a sheet-delivering device of a sheet-processing machine has a plurality of blowing nozzles arranged to be located above a sheet-delivering device and spaced from one another in a direction which is transverse to the sheet-transportation direction and at an angle to the sheet-transportation plane so as to blow air contrary to the sheet-transportation direction and between a sheet placed in the sheet stack and a sheet transported to the latter, wherein the blowing nozzles are also arranged at diverging angles to the sheet-transportation direction as considered in the sheet-transportation plane.
