Patent number: 11952692Abstract: A stitch-forming tool assembly for a sewing machine is used to produce a double-chain stitch seam. A sewing needle of the assembly can be driven up and down in a needle stitching direction perpendicular to a material to be sewn and is designed to guide a needle thread. A looper of the assembly is designed to guide a looper thread and for oscillating movement in an oscillating movement plane. The latter is spanned by the needle stitching direction and by a sewing direction along the double chain stitch seam. During an entire double chain stitch a path of movement of the looper lies completely in the oscillating movement plane. This results in a stitch-forming tool assembly in which in particular a looper drive is simplified.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: PFAFF Industriesysteme und Maschinen GmbHInventors: Harald Kallenbach, Berthold Becker, Stefan Samstag

Publication number: 20060100908Abstract: A method for organizing pre-planned medical assistance for a transport of a patient comprises the computer-implemented step of matching information about travel arrangements of medical practitioners with a request for the transport of the patient, wherein the information about said travel arrangements is contained in at least one computer-implemented database and has been stored in the database prior to the matching step. A computer system and a database comprise corresponding features. The present invention offers an economical way of providing medical assistance for a transport of a patient, and in particular a way by which high-level medical assistance can be organized with little waiting time for the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2004Publication date: May 11, 2006Inventors: Harald Becker, Edgar Buhrle

Publication number: 20050240423Abstract: In a method for providing medical assistance in the event of an in-flight medical emergency during a passenger flight, training is provided to medical practitioners in the handling of in-flight medical emergencies; an identification scheme is established that allows medical practitioners who completed the training to be identified; it is determined, by means of the identification scheme, if a medical practitioner who completed the training is present as a passenger of the passenger flight; and the medical practitioner is asked to provide the medical assistance. The invention improves the medical treatment of emergency patients during a flight and avoids legal uncertainties, which presently arise when a passenger who steps forward in an in-flight medical emergency is allowed to treat a patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 27, 2004Publication date: October 27, 2005Inventors: Harald Becker, Edgar Buhrle

Patent number: 6135221Abstract: A drive assembly for a track-laying vehicle adapted to travel in a horizontal direction along the ground has a horizontally elongated frame having two opposite ends and upper and lower edges extending parallel to the direction between the ends, a drive wheel at one of the ends, a support fixed on the frame between the ends, and a guide on the frame extending between the fixed support and the other end along a line forming an acute angle with the direction and extending downward toward the other end. A movable support displaceable parallel to the line in the guide carries an idler wheel at the other end. A spring braced between the supports urges the idler wheel parallel to the line away from the drive wheel. A plurality of ground wheels are mounted along the lower edge between the drive and idler wheels and an endless track looped around the wheels extends parallel to the direction along the idler wheels. A drive connected to the drive wheel rotates the drive wheel and displaces the track around the wheels.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 1999Date of Patent: October 24, 2000Assignee: Intertractor GmbHInventors: Harald Becker, Frank Tintrup, Gerhard Wagner

Patent number: 5728019Abstract: A drive system, especially a belt drive for a multi-axial vehicle running gear, has a drive drum about which the belt is looped and provided with a ring with entrainers which engage teeth on the belt when there is slip between the belt and the drum. Limited rotation of the ring relative to the drum may be effected by elliptical spring elements coupling the ring and the drum or by clutches on the drum which frequently lock the ring to the drum so as to effect control engagement of the entrainers with the belt teeth and positive drive of the belt by the drum.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 1996Date of Patent: March 17, 1998Assignee: Intertractor AktiengesellschaftInventors: Harald Becker, Piotr Dudzinski, Michael Ketting
