  • Patent number: 7288894
    Abstract: An electric lamp has a discharge vessel which is sealed in a vacuum-tight manner and is made from glass, the discharge vessel being surrounded in particular by an envelope part, the discharge vessel being essentially cylindrical, and defining a longitudinal axis L, and containing two electrodes at a predetermined distance from one another as well as a filling, an electrically insulated insert part also being fitted in the discharge vessel over a central part of the axial length. The electrically insulated insert part extends at least over the distance between the electrodes EA, it is fitted in the discharge vessel without the use of a retaining device, and it surrounds the electrodes in essentially tubular fashion such that it is spaced apart from them.

  • Publication number: 20030000363
    Abstract: In a sawing tool for a hand circular power saw with two coaxial saw blades (11, 12), which can be driven to counter-rotate in relation to each other, which each have an outer set of teeth (13, 14) that represents a main cutter, in order to improve the cutting result even with continuing wear on the cutting edge and in order to reduce damage to the teeth (13, 14) when the saw blades (11, 12) are imperfectly balanced, a trimmer (10) is disposed between the two saw blades (11, 12), which serves to cut away a piece of material possibly remaining in the kerf between the saw blades (11, 12) and which is non-rotatably attached to one of the saw blades (11, 12) and shares an axial overlap with the main cutters (FIG. 3).
