Patent number: 12129851Abstract: An eccentric screw pump for delivering solid-laden liquids includes a rotor and a stator within which the rotor is rotatably arranged. The rotor and stator are arranged and designed with respect to one another in such a way that at least one chamber is formed, which serves to transport the liquid. The eccentric screw pump has a drive motor for rotating the rotor, a control device for controlling the drive motor at least in a working state, in which the rotor is rotated, and an idle state, in which the rotor does not rotate, and an engagement unit, which is designed to set an engagement between the rotor and stator to an idle engagement in the idle state and to a working engagement in the working state. The idle engagement is less than the working engagement. A method for operating the eccentric screw pump is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2022Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: VOGELSANG GMBH & CO KGInventors: Michael Rolfes, Paul Krampe

Patent number: 7739657Abstract: A robust toolkit provides facilities that can be assembled in a modular manner to specify the fundamental architecture of a net-centric application. A bootstrapping process assembles various facilities within the architecture. A configuration facility defines an API for getting properties that can be defined in any number of different types of sources. A factory de-couples how a resource is produced from where the resource is used. A selector framework applies standard query language to contexts other than querying a database. A pipeline architecture defines a model view controller-like framework for a processing pipeline. Selectors are used to specify when certain portions of a Web conversation should be made available to a user. An authorization facility associates permissions with a user to specify which portions of an application a user is authorized to use.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2005Date of Patent: June 15, 2010Assignee: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventor: Damon Michael Rolfs
