  • Patent number: 11928489
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for providing extension application mechanisms. Memory is allocated for a virtual environment to run in an address space of an application that is to be extended with extension logic in a secure manner. The virtual environment is configured for execution of commands related to an extension functionality of the application. A virtual processor for an execution of a command of the commands is initialized at the virtual environment. The virtual processor is operable to manage one or more guest operating systems (OS). A first guest OS is loaded at the allocated memory and application logic of the extension functionality is copied into the allocated memory. The virtual environment is started to execute the first guest OS and the application logic of the extension functionality in relation to associated data of the application in the allocated memory.

  • Publication number: 20230234177
    Abstract: A machine tool (10) for machining workpieces (18) has a main spindle (12) which carries a tool holder (14) at its end and is mounted in such a way that it can rotate about an axis of rotation (22) and can move along the axis of rotation (22). A preferably electromagnetic feed device (32) is also provided, which exerts a force (FZ) acting along the axis of rotation s on the main spindle (12). A screw gear (52), which connects a drive (20) for driving the main spindle to the main spindle (12), drives the main spindle (12) in rotation and simultaneously moves it along the axis of rotation (22). The screw-and-nut gearing (52) has a thread (64, 66a, 66b) formed on a first component (54) and a cam (70a, 70b) formed on a second component (12) that cooperates with the thread (64, 66a, 66b). One of the two components (54) is rotated by the drive (20) via a drive gear (57) and is immovably mounted along the axis of rotation (22). The other of the two components is the main spindle (12).
