  • Publication number: 20220085701
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing an axial flux machine adapted for generating a magnetic flux along the axis of rotation, includes the manufacturing of one or more stators, having the following steps: providing a surface comprising one or more flat support surfaces perpendicular to the axis of rotation; positioning one or more boundary elements, individual stator elements, and a ring element on the one or more support surfaces. At least one of the boundary elements is a cooling element adapted for conducting heat. The stator elements each has a ferromagnetic core and an electric winding wound around the ferromagnetic core, and filling the empty space between the outer circumference, the stator elements and the ring element with an electrically insulating filling material.

  • Patent number: 7344050
    Abstract: A distribution installation for products (11) arranged in compartments (10, 10?) with transport means (13) for transferring the products (11) from said compartments (10, 10?) to a dispensing hatch (5). Said transport means (13) comprise a deformable reception means (29) which are connected to at least a first and a second attachment element (30, 31). The attachment elements (30, 31) can move relative to each so that the reception means (29) have at least a reception position in which said products (11) are transferred from said compartments (10, 10?) to the reception means (29), and a delivery position in which products (11) are transferred from the receiving means (29) to said dispensing hatch (5).

  • Publication number: 20040213649
    Abstract: A distribution installation for products (11) arranged in compartments (10, 10′) with transport means (13) for transferring the products (11) from said compartments (10, 10′) to a dispensing hatch (5). Said transport means (13) comprise a deformable reception means (29) which are connected to at least a first and a second attachment element (30, 31). The attachment elements (30, 31) can move relative to each so that the reception means (29) have at least a reception position in which said products (11) are transferred from said compartments (10, 10′) to the reception means (29), and a delivery position in which products (11) are transferred from the receiving means (29) to said dispensing hatch (5).
