Patent number: 11059087Abstract: A stamped or fine-blanked, workpiece is inserted in an embossing device, and the burr created on the workpiece during stamping or fine blanking is rounded by way of a die of the embossing device and the height of the rollover created during stamping or fine blanking is decreased using the same stroke of the embossing device by way of which the burr rounding is carried out.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: FEINTOOL INTERNATIONAL HOLDING AGInventors: Sven Hofstetter, Herbert Fuchs, Jonatan Gersbach

Patent number: 10156242Abstract: A gas turbine and method are disclosed by which the gas turbine can be safely operated at nominal speed with reduced margin to a surge limit of a compressor. The gas turbine, via a directly driven generator which generates alternating current with an operating frequency and which is connected in a frequency-coupled manner to an electricity grid, can deliver electric power to this grid. In the case of an underfrequency event the compressor of the gas turbine is unloaded by controlled, fast closing of the variable compressor guide vanes (VGV) and as a result maintains a sufficient margin to the surge limit of the compressor.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2011Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: ANSALDO ENERGIA SWITZERLAND AGInventors: Herbert Fuchs, Anton Nemet, Jürgen Hoffmann

Patent number: 9145774Abstract: A method is provided for operating a gas turbine plant, in which compressed air is extracted from a compressor and for cooling is directed in an internal cooling passage through thermally loaded components to the combustion chamber and/or to the turbine, then re-cooled, and added to the compressor main flow in the compressor. At least a portion of the recirculated air is supersaturated, or partially saturated, with drops of water during or before recirculation into the compressor and a cooling mist is created. A gas turbine plant is provided with a closed cooling circuit which, for implementing the method, includes an injection arrangement for introducing water into the recirculated cooling air.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2012Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: ALSTOM TECHNOLOGY LTD.Inventors: Herbert Fuchs, Anton Nemet, Hans Wettstein

Patent number: 9140196Abstract: A method for controlling a gas turbine, including during transient operating states, and such a gas turbine are provided. The gas turbine includes a compressor for compressing inducted combustion air, a combustion chamber for generating hot gas by combusting a fuel with the aid of the compressed combustion air, and a multistage turbine for expanding the generated hot gas and performing work. The controlling of the gas turbine is carried out in accordance with the hot gas temperature which is derived from a plurality of other measured operating variables of the gas turbine. A reliable controlling of the gas turbine is achieved, even during rapid changes, by pressure measurements being gathered exclusively at different points of the gas turbine for derivation of the hot gas temperature.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2011Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: ALSTOM TECHNOLOGY LTD.Inventor: Herbert Fuchs

Patent number: 8770075Abstract: Parts with high surface finish are removed from tools of a fine blanking press with accuracy and at high speed. The press has high opening and shutting speeds achieved by a direct drive having high acceleration power, a high turning moment, and small construction dimensions. A cross slide is movable transverse to a working direction of tool parts and is fixed at a frame of the direct drive. The direct drive includes a drive shaft which changes turning direction based on the stroke of a ram that is pivotally connected to the cross slide via an arm, a bracket, and a rapid-action coupling. Rotating motion is converted into a linear motion, which reverses between a rear stop position and a front stop position of the cross slide in a working area.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2010Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Feintool Industrial Property AGInventors: Andreas Walther, Herbert Fuchs, Simon Benjamin Walther, Jürg Ochsenbein
