  • Publication number: 20070170616
    Abstract: This describes a procedure for replicative fabrication and packaging of at least one microstructured molded part as one magazine/molded part composite as well as a magazine with at least one microstructured molded part as one magazine/molded part composite. The first step covers fabrication of at least one microstructured molded part using an initially closed tool which consists of at least one first and one second tool half. In the second step, both tool halves are opened, whereby the molded part remains in the first tool half. In the third step, at least the second tool half is replaced with at least one additional tool half. In the fourth step, the replicative fabrication of the magazine is carried out using the first tool half containing the molded part and the additional tool half. Finally in the fifth step, magazine and molded part are demolded simultaneously as one magazine/molded part composite.

  • Publication number: 20070007859
    Abstract: The invention relates to a piezoactuator for miniaturized pumps, atomizers, valves or the like. The piezoactuator comprises a piezoceramic disk (1) and a pressure disk (2) coupled to the piezoceramic disk. Said pressure disk is linked on its rim (18) with a substrate (3) in a fluid-tight manner and can be deflected by the piezoceramic disk (1) while modifying the volume of a cavity (4) formed between the pressure disk (2) and the substrate (3). According to the invention, a weak point (6, 9) is provided which extends along the linked rim (18) of the pressure disk (2) and forms a joint when the pressure disk is deflected.

  • Publication number: 20060140782
    Abstract: The invention relates to a micropump comprising a pump membrane (5) which can be moved by modifying the volume of a pump chamber which is adjacent to the pump membrane (5) and a base part (1), also comprising two valves which are arranged in recesses (10,11) in the base part and react to the pressure in the pump chamber in order to alternately open and close an inlet channel (8) and an outlet channel (9) for a medium to be pumped. According to the invention, the valves are formed by functioning valve modules (40,41) without any common components. The pre-manufactured valve modules, base modules comprising the base part and hose connections (2,3) and actuator modules comprising the actuator and the membrane are combined in order to produce said micropumps.

  • Patent number: 6906607
    Abstract: The object of the invention is to produce multipole magnetic systems that are composed of a plurality of individual magnetic components that preferably are made of rare-earth magnetic material. The invention relates to a method for producing and magazining at least one individual magnetic component, a magazine for at least one individual magnetic component by molding and for conventionally magnetizing the same. The invention further relates to a method of assembly for producing a magnetic system and to the resulting magnetic systems. The invention teaches that extremely flat multipole magnetic systems in the form of magnet rings or magnet strips and three-dimensional magnet bodies such as a magnetic scale, for example, can be produced by means of individual magnetic components that are directly adjacent to each other or are arranged at a distance by means of a molding material, for example.

  • Patent number: 6851174
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method to simplify the handling of micro-components, wherein a micro-component is initially produced on a micro-component base plate. At least the open side surfaces of the micro-component are then cast using a hardening molding material whereupon the base plate and/or the molding material covering the micro-component is removed. The magazine for at least one micro-component comprises of a disk-shaped plate encompassing the micro-component at least one its lateral surfaces is positive joint. The assembly method for micro-components includes a magazine which is configured in the form of a disk-shaped plate containing at least one micro-component which encompasses at least on one of its sides in positive fit. Said magazine is held and maintained by a retaining device, whereupon the micro-component which is to be assembled is squeezed out of the magazine and simultaneously positioned in a specific location.
