  • Patent number: 10865575
    Abstract: A bracket scaffold for arrangement on a curved surface of a structure includes a first securing element arranged on the structure. The bracket scaffold has an end-side first coupling element which is, in particular in a limited manner, pivotably arranged on a first carrier of the bracket scaffold. A rotation axis of the first coupling element preferably intersects with the support location of the first coupling element on the first securing element. The pivot radius of the first coupling element describes in particular a concave pivot arc on the first carrier. The rotation axis is located from the first guide preferably in the direction of the free end of the first coupling element. Extension torques in the articulation, which is formed by the first guide, are minimized by the bracket scaffold being pulled away from the structure.

  • Publication number: 20190366504
    Abstract: A honing tool (100) for machining an inner face (322) of a bore (320) in a workpiece (300) with the aid of at least one honing operation comprises a tool body (110) that defines a tool axis, and an expandable cutting group (330), attached to the tool body, having a plurality of radially feedable cutting material body carriers (150) that each cover a circumferential angle range and are feedable radially with respect to the tool axis by means of a cutting group feeding system assigned to the cutting group. Each cutting material body carrier carries, on its radial outer side, a plurality of narrow cutting material bodies (140) configured as cutting material strips (140-1, 140-2, 140-3, 440-1, 440-2) that are narrow in the circumferential direction and have a width in the circumferential direction that is small compared with the axial length of the cutting material strips. The cutting material bodies are arranged at a mutual spacing from one another.

  • Publication number: 20150184401
    Abstract: An access flooring for a scaffolding has an access door which closes an access opening in the access flooring and which is supported in an opening manner on the access flooring in a state connected to the access flooring. In a region of the access flooring in which the access door is connected to the access flooring, there is arranged at least one resiliently deformable element which becomes deformed when the access door is opened and there is produced by the deformation in the resiliently deformable element a force which is directed counter to the opening movement of the access door and which increases abruptly from a defined opening angle ? near a perpendicular position of the access door.

  • Publication number: 20130319063
    Abstract: In a machining method for machining a curved workpiece surface (210) of a workpiece (200), a roll-embossing operation is carried out. At least one rolling element (180A, 180B, 180C) of a machining tool (100) is rolled here under a contact pressure against a section (198) to be machined of the curved workpiece surface. An external surface of the rolling element has a rough surface structure in at least one working section (190A, 190B, 190C) intended for rolling contact with the workpiece surface. The contact pressure is set in such a manner that, during the rolling, a rough roll-embossed structure is produced by local deformation of workpiece material without removing material in the machined region of the workpiece surface. The machining method can be used, for example, for machining the internal surface of a bore in a workpiece, in particular for roughening the workpiece surface for a subsequent coating.

  • Patent number: 7501660
    Abstract: A housing is specified for an electronic component having at least two connecting parts (4a, 4b), which are partially in contact with the housing. The conductivity of at least subareas of the housing are set in a defined manner and current paths through the housing are formed between the connecting parts. The housing thus has a defined resistance (2), which is connected in parallel with an electronic component (1), and provides ESD protection for the component (1).

  • Patent number: 6722808
    Abstract: A connecting apparatus is provided for connecting a number of components, in particular for connecting the enclosure parts of circuit breakers. The connection apparatus includes a connecting element which has a shaft, which passes through through-openings which are aligned with one another in the connection, having an insertion end and having a holding end opposite it. In order to achieve a turning or twisting distance which is as short as possible when the connecting element is twisted in order to brace the components while avoiding weakening of the material, the connecting element includes two fixing lugs at the insertion end. These lugs are bent in the form of a circular arc in an initial state and are bent out radially in the mounting state. Alternatively, two fixing lugs which extend like a fork in the shaft longitudinal direction in an initial state and which are bent out radially in the mounting state are provided at the insertion end of the connecting element.

It includes a connecting element which has a shaft which passes through through-openings which are aligned with one another in the connection of the components, having an insertion end and having a holding end opposite it. In order to achieve firstly centering and secondly a turning or twisting distance which is as short as possible when the connecting element is twisted in order to brace the components, a first mounting depression, which holds the holding end and is aligned with the through-openings, as a centering cone, with the holding end being conical, forms a mating surface which corresponds with the centering cone.
