Patent number: 9202659Abstract: An arrangements and methods for cooling a plasma-based radiation source having a revolving element which is to be cooled, particularly for application in EUV radiation sources, is disclosed. The revolving element is immersed in the metal coolant in a first vessel of a primary cooling circuit, and a secondary cooling circuit with a cooling liquid evaporating at the desired operating temperature of the metal coolant has a control unit for controlling at least one atomizing arrangement in a differentiated manner and for selectively controlling a heater in case the determined temperature falls below a minimum operating temperature of the metal coolant. The at least one atomizing arrangement in a cooling section selectively sprays individual wall regions of the first vessel with the cooling liquid depending on the determined temperature of the metal coolant.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2014Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: USHIO Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Gota Niimi, Dominik Marcel Vaudrevange, Ralf Gordon Conrads, Maghiel Jan Kole, Wilhelmus V. J. Van Nunspeet, Johannes W. J. L. Cuijpers, Andre Matthias Prinz

Patent number: 9000603Abstract: A wind power plant has a main controller and a set of condition parameters that are fed to the main controller. The main controller determines settings for the operation of the wind power plant from the condition parameters. A minimal controller and a monitoring module are further provided. The minimal controller determines a setting for the pitch angle and/or pitch speed from a subset of the condition parameters. In the event of an error in the processing of the main controller, the monitoring module transfers the control over the wind power plant to the minimal controller. The wind power plant can be shut down in a controlled manner by means of the minimal controller according to the invention if an error occurs in the main controller.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2011Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Senvion SEInventor: Matthias Prinz

Patent number: 8033545Abstract: An object of the present invention is to improve the process sequence in a printing machine. Another object of the present invention is to increase the operational life of the printing machine. A method has been provided for transporting printing material (9) through a printing machine in which, in case of an occurrence of paper jam in the transport path (2), a flap (5) in the transport path (2) is actuated and a sheet of printing material (9) is transported along the flap (5) out of the transport path (2). Furthermore, a transport arrangement (1) for transporting printing material (9) along a transport path (2) in a printing machine is provided, comprising at least one transport path flap (5) actuated by a control arrangement (20) for opening and closing, and comprising an associated container (8) for receiving waste printing material when said flap (5) is open.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2005Date of Patent: October 11, 2011Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventor: Matthias Prinz

Publication number: 20090210200Abstract: A method for providing operating data of a wind farm comprising a plurality of wind farm components. The operating data of the wind farm components are recorded and are stored in the relevant wind farm component. The operating data are sent to a plurality of receivers using a push method. The method simplifies the management of the operating data and requires only minimal transmission capacity in the data line of the wind farm component.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2009Publication date: August 20, 2009Applicant: REpower Systems AGInventors: Guntram KUNFT, Ralf ELSNER, Markus BOOK, Matthias PRINZ

Publication number: 20070274750Abstract: The invention relates to a method of feeding sheets of printing material in a printing machine, preferably a digital printing machine, on a continuous loop transport means, in particular, a transport belt, which has at least one dead space section, specifically a seam, and which is preferably included in a transport path which permits the alternate selection between simplex printing and duplex printing, in which case it has been taken into account that a region, preferably the leading edge of a respective sheet on the transport means, is detected for the control of a printing process by means of a detecting device. The present invention is to solve the problem of making optimal use of space for sheets on the transport means, while avoiding detecting device errors caused by the dead space section. This problem has been solved by the present invention in that, when a sheet is fed, said sheet's region to be detected is prevented from entering into the dead space section of the transport means.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2004Publication date: November 29, 2007Applicant: EASTMAN KODAK COMPANYInventors: Eckhard Bauer, Stephan Pareigis, Uwe Weinlich, Dieter Dobberstein, Matthias Prinz, Ralph Schoon
