Patent number: 6649111Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a housing (12) for a throttle valve connection piece (10), which housing is to have particularly high dimensional stability. For this purpose, the housing (12), which has a throttle orifice (16) for a throttle valve (20), is produced from plastic (14) by the injection molding method, plastic (14) being partially injected around a metal cylinder (28) which, at least in the region of the throttle valve (20), forms the throttle orifice (16). In this case, before the injection molding method, an expanding mandrel (50) is expanded against the inner face (33) of the metal cylinder (28). During the injection molding method, the inner face (33) of the metal cylinder (28) is supported at least partially by the expanding mandrel (50). After the injection molding method, a reduction in the outer circumference (80) of the expanding mandrel (50) is carried out in order to remove the expanding mandrel (50) from the interior (70) of the metal cylinder (28).Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2001Date of Patent: November 18, 2003Assignee: Mannesmann VDO AGInventors: Thomas Hannewald, Armin Seeger, Rolf Oppermann, Michael Haede, Rüdiger Mörbe, Carlos Backes, Horst Schäfer

Patent number: 5801592Abstract: An oscillator circuit is provided for stabilizing the amplitude of a HF oscillation of an audio signal. In such an oscillator circuit, an audio signal having a frequency in the range of 20 Hz . . . 20 kHz is coupled into the oscillator circuit, is modulated with a high frequency and is emitted in the form of an RF audio signal having a frequency of more than 2 MHz. Such an oscillator circuit is used for instance in an infrared transmitting unit, wherein a low frequency audio signal is transformed into a higher frequency infrared signal. The higher frequency audio signals are transmitted via infrared channel to an appropriate receiving unit--for instance to infrared head phones--which comprises a receiving unit having an appropriate demodulator and preferably also a stereo-decoder in order to reproduce the low frequency audio signals.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 1997Date of Patent: September 1, 1998Assignee: Sennheiser electronic GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Wolfgang Mann, Horst Schaefer

Patent number: 4417820Abstract: Electronic clocks with analog time displays and a vibrating quartz crystal (1) as a time standard, as well as electronic frequency dividers (6, 7). The display elements are driven by an electronically controlled motor (SM), said motor comprising a power winding (87) and a control winding (68). The control and regulating circuit for the electronically controlled motor (SM) is so designed that only one rpm above the rated rpm is controllably adjustable and, when the frequency of the clock varies, correcting signals are supplied to the AC drive pulses in power winding (87) through a bistable flip-flop (50), said flip-flop being subjected to real pulses derived from frequency dividers (6,7) and pulses derived from motor (SM), a NOR element (58) connected to the output of flip-flop (50) and an additional frequency divider (59), a field effect transistor (88), and a resistor (89).Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 1982Date of Patent: November 29, 1983Assignee: Braun AktiengesellschaftInventors: Peter Busch, Horst Schaefer

Patent number: 4388961Abstract: A strip-type door having a plurality of individual strips arranged in overlapped relationship one to another comprises a series of swingable supports on which the individual strips are vertically suspended when the latter take a vertical position. A mounting element connected to a lintel over the door opening has a mounting portion, a supporting bar and an arcuate wall defining an arcuate channel. Each of the supports is formed with a curved portion insertable into the channel in the mounting element to form with this wall a hinge about which the supports carrying the individual strips can swing relative to the mounting element between a plurality of positions. The curved end portion may be inserted into said channel in only one of these positions so that the inadvertent falling or removal of the supports out of the channel when the strips are in their working swingable positions is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1981Date of Patent: June 21, 1983Assignee: Albert Reiff KGInventors: Horst Schaefer, Hans Votteler

Patent number: 4245332Abstract: An echo-sounding receiver circuit comprising first and second receiver channels and an AND gate enabled by simultaneous outputs from both receiver channels is disclosed. The first receiver channel includes an echo stacking circuit, an echo selection circuit, and a tracking window circuit for establishing a measuring range or window whose timing is determined in part by detection of the first primary target echo in a sounding period and whose duration is established by the tracking window circuit. The second receiver channel includes a tracking threshold circuit and a second echo selection circuit for detecting the first echo that exceeds an amplitude determined by the amplitude of the preceding primary target echo. Upon detection of a primary echo by the second channel during the window established by the first channel, the AND gate supplies an output signal to a recording instrument or other utilization device.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 1979Date of Patent: January 13, 1981Assignee: Honeywell Inc.Inventor: Horst Schaefer

Patent number: 4013617Abstract: Hydrophilic polyolefin fibers containing inorganic pigments are obtained by means of flash evaporation of a superheated suspension, which is under at least autogenous pressure. The suspension comprises a dispersion of a hydrophobized inorganic pigment in an emulsion prepared from a solution of a polyolefin in an easily boiling solvent and an aqueous solution of a hydrophilizing agent. The suspension is passed through a nozzle into a low pressure zone to form pigmented fibers.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 1975Date of Patent: March 22, 1977Assignee: Hoechst AktiengesellschaftInventors: Wolfgang Gordon, Hans Joachim Leugering, Horst Schaefer
