Abstract: There is described a turbine blade with an aerodynamically profiled blade leaf which is produced from two assembled shell elements. The shell elements forming the suction-side and the pressure-side blade leaf wall have been assembled by means of a high-temperature high-pressure bonding process and, under certain circumstances, may come apart at the blade tip. In order to prevent this, in the region of the blade leaf tip, a cramp is provided which hooks the two blade walls together with one another with a form fit.

Abstract: In soldering processes according to prior art, there is often an insufficient tie-up to a substrate of a component. A method in which no voids occur during the soldering processes is provided. A temperature pattern is proposed according to the method in which the temperature is lowered successively during the soldering operation.

Abstract: A method for producing a hole with side-delimiting flanks in a component using a laser beam is provided. A laser beam is directed onto the component. A side flank of the hole is traced with the laser beam. A partial volume of the hole is formed by vaporizing the component material. This is repeated until the whole volume is formed. The laser beam may be oriented so that it includes an angle of more than 8° with the traced side flank.

Abstract: A guide vane for a gas turbine with a vane base body which is of single-piece design and comprises a profiled vane blade extending between a vane root and a cover plate and also the vane root formed integrally with the vane blade and the cover plate formed integrally with the vane blade, is intended, in a relatively simple way to be able to be matched to the individual conditions of use with especially little outlay on apparatus and logistics. For this purpose, according to the invention, a flow-routing body with an advance guide blade that is connected upstream of the vane blade as seen in the direction of flow of the working medium of the gas turbine is joined to the vane base body.

Abstract: A turbine blade for a turbine of a thermal power plant, with a platform for partial delimiting of a flow passage in the turbine, wherein the platform has at least one cooling medium passage, which extends inside the platform, for guiding a cooling medium, is characterized according to the invention in that the at least one cooling medium passage emerges from the platform at at least two connecting openings, and the turbine blade has at least one supplementary component which can be fastened on the platform, with a communicating passage, which is designed for interconnecting the connecting openings in a fluid-guiding manner.

Abstract: Beverage bottling plant for filling bottles with a liquid beverage filling material, and a method for the operation thereof. The beverage bottling plant has a treatment system to treat the beverage before the beverage is filled into the bottles, and then treat the beverage again after the filled bottles are closed. The abstract of the disclosure is submitted herewith as required by 37 C.F.R. §1.72(b). As stated in 37 C.F.R. §1.72(b): A brief abstract of the technical disclosure in the specification must commence on a separate sheet, preferably following the claims, under the heading “Abstract of the Disclosure.” The purpose of the abstract is to enable the Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and gist of the technical disclosure. The abstract shall not be used for interpreting the scope of the claims.

Abstract: A beverage bottling plant for filling bottles with a liquid beverage filling material having a treatment section for the treatment of products in containers that are handled in a stream of containers by sequential sections at least for heating, treating and cooling by means of liquid that is poured over them, and with a treatment housing and transport, spray and other devices, pans, pumps etc., wherein the tunnel housing is formed in a modular configuration from any desired number of flexible, exchangeable segments, wherein said segments extend at a right angle or parallel to the direction of conveyance of the treatment device, and can be lined up one behind another on zone tanks and/or hot water tanks that are oriented parallel to or along said direction of conveyance. The abstract of the disclosure is submitted herewith as required by 37 C.F.R. §1.72(b). As stated in 37 C.F.R. §1.
