  • Patent number: 11603950
    Abstract: A pipe (12) coupling assembly (16, 116) includes a body (64, 120), a rib (65, 122), and teeth (56, 124). The body (64, 118) has an outer diameter and first and second inner diameter sections (68, 128, 70, 130). The first inner diameter section (68, 128) is wider than the second inner diameter section (70, 130). The rib (65, 122) extends around the first diameter section (68, 128) and projects radially inwardly therefrom. The teeth (56, 124) are situated within the second inner diameter section (70, 130) and project radially inwardly toward a central axis (38, 134) of the body (64, 120).

  • Publication number: 20230020156
    Abstract: A method and device for configuring a clamp-on ultrasonic measuring device for flow measurement in pipelines, the clamp-on ultrasonic measuring device comprising at least two ultrasound transducers for flow measurement which face one another along the pipeline in a plane or diagonally. The autonomous acquisition and detection of the properties of the pipeline is carried out by means of a determined resistance value on the basis of the dimension of the pipeline and/or a circumferential measurement of the pipeline and/or a determined ultrasound value.

  • Patent number: 9518678
    Abstract: An electrical feedback device (6) of a valve (1) is provided for feeding back the position of a hand wheel (4) of the valve (1) and thus the position of a shut-off member of the valve (1). The electrical feedback device (6) can be mounted in a spindle housing (13) of a housing upper part (2) of the valve (1). The electrical feedback device is configured so that the rotational movement of the hand wheel (4) is converted into a linear movement of a trip cam (45). The electrical feedback device (6) has a gearwheel (43) which is driven by a screw thread (42) which is mounted on a ring (41).
