  • METHOD FOR CONNECTING PIPES AND PIPE HAVING A PROFILED FACE END
    Publication number: 20100206418
    Abstract: A pipe, particularly a pipeline pipe having a first and a second face end, wherein the two face ends are profiled such that two identically profiled pipes can be connected to each other by way of a glued plug-in connection of a first face end of one pipe to the second face end of the second pipe, wherein the plug-in connection has a centering section and a gluing section, wherein a stop step of the first pipe abuts a counter stop step of the second pipe in the centering section such that an annular gap, which is open toward the outside of the pipes and is filled with glue in the connected state, is formed in the gluing section. It is essential that the annular gap is formed by two gap walls extending substantially parallel to each other and tilted at an acute angle to the pipe axis.

  • Fuel Filter
    Publication number: 20100126920
    Abstract: The invention concerns a fuel filter 10, in particular for diesel fuels, that comprises a housing 11 and a filter medium 12. The filter medium 12 is arranged by means of a filter medium holder 24 in the housing, wherein the filter medium holder comprises a venting bore 25. Through the venting bore 25 gases that collect in the upper area of the fuel filter can pass from the crude chamber 21 into the clean chamber 22. For avoiding that contaminants can escape through a clean outlet 18 from the fuel filter 10 and damage components downstream, a clean medium 26 is provided that retains such contaminants.

  • Method and apparatus for centering an ophthalmic lens
    Patent number: 7652756
    Abstract: An ophthalmic lens , e.g. a contact lens, is centered in a concave trough (10) of an inspection cell (1) which is filled with liquid (W).
