Patent number: 11337299Abstract: An electronic assembly has a printed circuit board with first and second component sides. A cooling element on the first component side is cooled by forced convection produced by a convection unit. A majority of electronic components are arranged on the second component side. Non-current-conducting plated-through holes are used to transport thermal energy generated by an electronic component from the second component side to the first component side. The thermal energy can be transported away from the printed circuit board and dissipated by means of the forced convection. A corresponding method for dissipating heat from an electronic assembly is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2020Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Fabian Diepold, Alexander Kiesel, Benno Weis, Johannes Fürst

Patent number: 11233461Abstract: A modular converter includes an inverter having power semiconductor switches made of GaN or InGaN and being operated with a blocking voltage of at least 400V and with a clock frequency of at least 40 kHz. A connection assembly distributes input and output signals and input and output AC voltages. A control assembly generates control signals for the inverter, a supply assembly with a rectifier converts the input alternating voltage into an intermediate circuit voltage, a rear wall assembly distributes the intermediate circuit voltage and the control signals for the inverter, and a load assembly converts the intermediate circuit voltage into the output alternating voltage for a load or for a secondary network. The connection assembly and the rear wall assembly are electrically connected to the other assemblies by way of releasable mechanical connections. A modular converter system that uses the modular inverter is also described.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2018Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Johannes Fürst, Fabian Diepold

Publication number: 20210332532Abstract: A turnout arrangement of a slab track with a ballastless superstructure for forming a main track (1) and a branch track (2) which branches off from the main track for railway traffic has a plurality of prefabricated turnout bases (3) of untensioned reinforced concrete, a casting compound (5), which is cast and hardened between the aligned turnout bases and the ground (4), a plurality of fastening areas (6) which are rail support points (7) provided on the turnout bases for the rail fastening of the main track, the branch track, and further turnout components. The turnout bases of the turnout arrangement are elastically supported, and each turnout base is provided with a positive-locking arrangement for positively holding the turnout base horizontally with respect to the casting compound. An elastic layer (8) is provided between a projection (13) of an element of the positive-locking arrangement and the turnout base.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2019Publication date: October 28, 2021Applicant: PORR Bau GmbHInventor: Johannes Fürst

Patent number: 10256718Abstract: The switching performance of a half-bridge arrangement particularly for a converter shall be improved. For this purpose, a half-bridge arrangement has a circuit board having at least four trace layers and two switching elements and a capacitor device arranged on opposite sides of the circuit board and interconnected so as to produce, during a commutation event of the half-bridge arrangement, at least two dipoles having opposite spatial directions.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2018Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Johannes Fürst, Marvin Tannhäuser

Publication number: 20150247713Abstract: A method seals a projectile having a wall against propellant charge gas pressure occurring during firing of the projectile. A propellant charge is ignited and the projectile is acted upon from the outside by the propellant charge gas pressure. In order reliably to seal the projectile, during the firing thereof, against penetration by propellant charge gas from the outside into the interior thereof, it is proposed that a contact connection of an electrical interface arranged in a channel in the wall is moved in the channel by the propellant charge gas pressure and presses a seal into a sealing seat.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2014Publication date: September 3, 2015Inventors: BORIS-JOHANNES FUERST, ANDREAS SCHELLHORN, KURT BUEHLER

Publication number: 20150220078Abstract: Methods for systems and methods for integrating and linking of NC-machine operations and programming modifications to the CAM system and the CAM model, and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums. A method includes maintaining a computer-aided-manufacturing (CAM) model in a CAM environment and a numerically-controlled (NC) program for an NC machine that corresponds to the CAM model. The method includes receiving a modification to the NC program in an NC system interface and automatically identifying a geometry of the CAM model that corresponds to the modification and linking the identified geometry to the modification. The method includes automatically modifying the CAM model according to the modification to the NC program to produce an updated CAM model and automatically generating an updated NC program according to the updated CAM model. The method includes displaying, in the NC system interface, a preview corresponding to the updated NC program.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2014Publication date: August 6, 2015Applicant: SIEMENS PRODUCT LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE INC.Inventors: Thilo Stolper, Matthias Diezel, Bernhard Schenk, Johannes Fürst, David Madeley

Patent number: 7980179Abstract: A safety and arming unit for a fuze of a projectile has a firing device for transferring the firing energy to another firing device and a barrier for interrupting the transfer. The barrier is locked in a locking state by a safety that triggers an unlocking action due to a physical arming parameter. The arming parameter of the novel device is an apogee parameter, effected by the projectile flying through the apogee of its projectile trajectory. A physical arming parameter independent of a launch parameter can be used to unlock the safety without needing to pull out a safety pin.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2008Date of Patent: July 19, 2011Assignee: Junghans Microtec GmbHInventors: Rudolf Harbrecht, Boris-Johannes Fürst
