  • Patent number: 8544352
    Abstract: A sensor arrangement including a probe and a bracket that are provided for a calorimetric mass flow meter for measuring the mass flow in a measuring tube. The probe is mounted in the bracket in such a manner that the probe is guided essentially without contact with a radial spacing through a probe recess a wall of the measuring tube and is positioned in a cross section of a flow-through area of the flow of the measuring tube. The bracket is designed in such a manner that the probe is thermally de-coupled from the measuring tube. The sensor arrangement for the calorimetric mass flow meter is capable of increasing the measuring accuracy and increasing the flexibility during operation.

  • Patent number: 4974985
    Abstract: A ball joint for use in motor vehicles and comprising a one-piece ball head (4) having a simplified construction, an increased bearing surface, and including a ball portion (11) of a smaller radius adjacent to the shank (5), an inner ball portion (10) of a greater radius both having the same center, and an annular shoulder (14) formed between the two ball portions (10, 11) and cooperating with an outer bearing shell half (3) for the smaller ball portion (11) which acts as a stop.

  • Patent number: 4832523
    Abstract: A ball joint sealing bellows (7) made of a plastic material and having a stud-side bellows rim (8) sealingly engaging a ball stud (5) and a housing-side bellows rim (10) fixed by a clamping ring (11) in a circumferential groove (12) in a joint housing (1), the housing-side bellows rim (10) being approximately cylindrical and having an inner diameter which is somewhat greater than the outer diameter of the circumferential groove (12), the housing-side bellows rim being pressed under the preload of the clamping ring (11) which engages the outer surface of the rim, radially into the ring groove (12) and sealingly engaging the joint housing (1) to prevent the sealing bellows (7), from being pulled or pushed out of the ring groove (12), the housing-side bellows rim (10) having one circumferential thickening (15) on the axially outer side thereof which abuts one side surface of the clamping ring (11), and another circumferential thickening (17) on the axially inner side thereof which abuts the other side surface of

  • Patent number: 4583145
    Abstract: The magnetic disc comprises a magnetizable layer (1) to which an adhesion promoting layer (4) and thereto a lubricant film (5) are applied. Onto the substrate of the magnetic head (2) an adhesion reducing layer (9) is deposited. The apparatus can also show only one adhesion-influencing layer. The layers (4) and (9) are formed by the reaction of a sililating agent with reactive groups on the surface of the magnetizable layer (1), or of the substrate of the magnetic head (2), respectively. The sililating agents used differ in their terminal groups of which one category produce van der Waals bonds to the lubricant molecules, and the other is chemically indifferent relative to the lubricant molecules.The two layers (4) and (9) are made e.g. by the spin-coating of a solution of the sililating agent, and subsequent drying.The apparatus ensures a homogeneous coating of the magnetizable layer (1) with lubricant, and it prevents the pick-up of lubricant by the substrate of the magnetic head (2).
