Abstract: A pipette for metering powder has a pipette sleeve and a metering piston having an end face for ejecting powder from the sleeve. The sleeve includes a free end and, on the sleeve inside, includes a circumferential wall extending in a closed manner around a longitudinal axis. The wall extends in the direction of the axis up to the free end and ends there in an edge which extends around the axis. The piston is guided to be movable parallel to the axis inside the wall. The end face, with the piston in a retracted metering position, defines a chamber with the wall. The wall is, in the region of the chamber, divided into a guide portion and a release portion adjoining the guide portion and extends up to the edge. The release portion surrounds a cross section of the chamber which is radially widened compared to the guide portion.

Abstract: A method for producing a retort for a nitriding furnace, in which metallic workpieces are heat-treated in a pre-determined atmosphere, includes pickling at least the surfaces of the retort, which are configured to come into contact with the pre-determined atmosphere while the nitriding furnace is operating, by using a pickling agent. The pickled surfaces may then be electropolished and passivated. A retort may be produced according to this method and the retort may be used in a nitriding furnace.

Abstract: A tool or workpiece has a mounting collar open axially outward, formed with a radially inwardly directed angled flank, and having a radial outer surface of noncircular cross-sectional shape. A chuck has a body formed with an axially forwardly open socket shaped to receive the collar with the axes generally coaxial and having an inner surface of a noncircular cross-sectional shape substantially complementary to the shape of the collar outer surface. A plurality of jaws axially fixed in the socket have radially movable ends engageable inside the collar and each formed with a radially inwardly and axially outwardly directed face. A cam having a face centered on the axis is engageable with the jaw front ends such that axial rearward shifting of the cam presses the jaw front ends outward and thereby presses the jaw faces against the collar flank to lock the collar in the socket.

Abstract: Described is a novel process for the introduction of an organic acyl radical selectively at the nitrogen atom of the amino group of desferrioxamine B or of a partially O-acylated derivative thereof. It comprises treating a derivative of desferrioxamine B, in which the amino nitrogen and the hydroxy oxygen of at least one of the hydroxamic acid groupings carries an organic silyl group, with an organic acylating agent and then removing the silyl groups present. The novel N- and O-silylated starting materials can be manufactured, preferably in situ, by reacting an appropriate derivative of desferrioxamine B that has at least one hydroxy group and the amino group in free form, with an organic silicon halide.
