  • Publication number: 20220000131
    Abstract: A method for producing a cold mixed beverage made of milk and an acidic component having a denaturing step of the milk is disclosed. The milk is heated to a denaturing temperature TDENAT that is in a range of 72° C. to 155° C. prior to mixing with the acidic component and is maintained at the denaturing temperature TDENAT for a denaturing period tDENAT and then the denatured milk is mixed with the acidic component. The mixture is heat treated to increase the shelf life. The mixture is heated to a temperature THALT which is in a range of 63° C. to 155° C., and maintained at the temperature THALT for a heat treatment period tHALT. The heat-treated mixture is homogenized at a homogenizing pressure Phom which is in a range of 75 bar to 275 bar, and then cooled to a temperature that is in the range of 4° C. to 25° C.

  • Patent number: 6533373
    Abstract: A cable conduit for a switchgear cabinet, having a rack assembled from rack legs, at least a part of which have several profiled sides on an inside facing an interior, which extend at an angle with respect to each other and to a diagonal line of the rack and have a row of fastening receivers, wherein the cable conduit has a U-shaped profiled receiving section with a base leg and two lateral legs and can be closed by a cover section, which can be locked on the lateral legs. A dependable attachment of the cable conduit with an optimal cable reception space is achieved because the base leg of the profiled receiving section is matched to at least a portion of the contour defined by the profiled sides of the inside of a frame leg, or the profiled sides of the insides of two frame legs which are connected with each other, and can be connected with the profiled sides.

  • Patent number: 6425610
    Abstract: A control cabinet with a cabinet body, whose open front side can be successively closed by an inner door and a closing door presenting a closing device. The inner door can be fixed against the cabinet body at the top and at the bottom by means of a two-armed locking lever and the closing door can be fixed against the cabinet body by means of a locking bar. The closing door partly overlaps the inner door in the closing area. With mirror-symmetrical locking levers, no elements of the locking levers protrude over the free edge of the inner door in any position of the locking levers and the locking levers are easily operated.

  • Patent number: 6312068
    Abstract: In a row of adjacent switchgear cabinets with a frame, vertical frame pieces of adjacent switchgear cabinets are connected to each other and the top and bottom sides of the frame are closed by upper and lower metal sheets which have edges at least on the sides facing each other. The edges are staggered in relation to the outer sides of the adjacent frame pieces and form a type of groove with the end pieces of the edges and/or the profiled sides of the horizontal frame pieces facing each other. The grooves in an area of the top and bottom metal sheets of the adjacent switchgear cabinets are protected from water penetration because they are sealed respectively in the area of the top and/or bottom metal sheets of the switchgear cabinets by a covering strip running from the front face to the rear face of the switchgear cabinet flush with the top and bottom metal sheets.

  • Patent number: 6238028
    Abstract: A rack for a switching cabinet having vertical frame pieces. The vertical frame pieces have two protruding fastening elements, both of which contain a fastening section which is mounted parallel to the associated outer edges of the rack and a profiled side which is vertical to the associated outer edges of the rack. The fastening section and the profile edges have rows of fastening cavities spaced at equal distances from each other. This invention provides greater opportunity for mounting built-in fixtures on the rack frame when the distance between the profiled sides of one fastening attachment and the fastening sections of the other fastening attachment is the same as the distance between the fastening cavities or the space corresponds to a multiple of the dividing gap.

  • Patent number: 6217138
    Abstract: A frame section for a switching cabinet rack having at least one inner wall which faces the inside area of the switching cabinet and is fitted with a row of regularly spaced fastening cavities. The fastening cavities do not reduce rigidity to any significant degree. At the same time fixtures can be mounted on the fastening cavities in a stable manner by designing the fastening cavities as slotted openings with clear openings larger in the longitudinal direction of the frame section than the width of the clear openings perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

  • Patent number: 6174034
    Abstract: A switching cabinet having a rack with an upper and lower frame and vertical and horizontal struts which are disposed horizontally. The upper and lower frame have corner cavities, to which vertical frame profiles can be connected. The vertical frame profiles have profiled segments which are turned towards an inside of the rack. Access to the inside of the rack is improved when the vertical frame profiles may be mounted or dismounted afterwards which can be done with few components and involves little effort during mounting by including vertical profiles on at least one side of the rack, whose ends and profiled segments can be inserted into the corner cavity from the outer side of the rack, and by placing and fixing the profiled segments onto the connector of a corner cavity.

  • Patent number: 6164737
    Abstract: A switching cabinet with a rack having a base made of length and depth struts with connected vertical frame pieces. The vertical frame pieces are inserted into a cavity formed by the ends of the length and depth struts and are welded with the base to form a corner connector. It is possible to create a switching cabinet with a simple corner connector mounted on the rack. It is also possible to achieve precise alignment of the vertical frame pieces by providing them with centering pieces which are aligned with stops of the length and depth struts.

  • Patent number: 6155434
    Abstract: An assembly rail for a switching cabinet, designed in a form of a stamped and bent part and having an assembly wall directed towards the inside of the switching cabinet. Lateral fixing devices, bent out of the assembly wall, are fitted with an assembly plate. Hooks are stamped and bent out of the assembly plate. The hooks can be inserted into fastening cavities of the vertical frame sections of the switching cabinet. The assembly rails can be firmly and easily secured to the frame sections with slotted fastening cavities if the hooks are bent out of the assembly plate around an axis of flexion extending in the longitudinal direction of the frame sections, if a protruding section of the hook is stamped out from the bending point and if a width of the hook is determined by the material thickness of the fastening plate.

  • Patent number: 6102498
    Abstract: A rack for a switching cabinet which can be enclosed by side walls, at least one door and a cover and comprises a lower and upper frame which can be connected by frame profiles running vertically. The upper frame has vertical and horizontal struts running horizontally. The vertical and lateral struts include channels where water that runs off from the cover can be collected and drained. Water can then be drained off from the corner areas of the upper frame in a controlled manner if the outlet channels of adjacent vertical and horizontal struts are brought together and fed to a flume of the vertical frame piece.

  • Patent number: 5957555
    Abstract: A switchgear cabinet with a cabinet door and/or wall elements and a cover element covering the top, wherein a rain deflection device is disposed in the transition area between the upper horizontal edge of the cabinet door and/or the wall elements and the cover element. The removal of the collecting rainwater is possible with little structural effort in that in the transition area between the cabinet door and/or the wall elements and the cover element, a run-off channel is formed on the cover element or the cabinet door (wall element), and the cover element and/or the cabinet door (wall element) have guide devices, which guide the collecting water into the run-off channel.
