Publication number: 20120280427Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for producing coils (9) with longitudinal sections (9a) and narrow deflection bends (9b) by winding wires (8) on winding mandrels (4) with complementary cross sections with the supply of heating energy and subsequent fixing by cooling. To attain the object to rule out the spring rebounds of the coils (9) at the points of narrowest radii of curvature as far as possible and to produce coils (9) with high precision with high efficiency, it is proposed according to the invention that the heating energy is brought to act on the coils (9) at least mainly in the region of the narrow deflection bends (9b). This can be carried out by the targeted application of heating gases or hot air, laser radiation, contact heating, plasma radiation and ultrasound.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2010Publication date: November 8, 2012Applicant: KARL MAYER TEXTILMASCHINENFABRIK GMBHInventors: Wolfgang Bachmann, Marcel Julien, Pascal Julien

Publication number: 20100287775Abstract: A method and a device for producing helical screens by winding wires made of plastic into individual spirals, which are inserted into each other in an overlapping way in the transversal direction on a working surface and are united parallel to each other into permeable sheet materials by fixing wires. In order to achieve the task to provide a method and a device with which screen belts with spirals and fixing wires can be produced with low personnel, energy and investments costs (equipment costs) and low amounts of waste with high precision and reproducibility with low time effort, the invention proposes for the spirals to be deposited on winding devices by means of moveable joining devices next to each other on the work surface after winding and to be engaged on said work surface by transverse displacements and connected to each other by the fixing wires.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2008Publication date: November 18, 2010Inventors: Wolfgang Bachmann, Marcel Julien, Pascal Julien
