  • Patent number: 7451963
    Abstract: The invention relates to a Koepe winder or drum winder comprising an electric motor (5) for driving winding ropes (11). The rotor (6) of said motor is connected to the cylinder jacket (4) of the Koepe winder (2) and the stator frame (7) is fixed on a support structure that has a hollow shaft (3). The winder is characterised by an improved ventilation system. The motor (5) is located inside the cylinder jacket (4) in a cavity (12) between the plates (13) of the Koepe winder (2), said cavity being supplied with cooling air to ventilate the motor (5) from the exterior The hollow shaft (3) is formed by two half-shafts (18, 19), which together with at least one support disc (8) and the stator frame (7) form the support structure (10).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6702043
    Abstract: A drilling machine 1 with a drill pipe holder 10 to be operated automatically in boring as well as in pulling, disposes over a gripper 20, which is constructed rotatably about an axis 21 and beyond that also axially displaceably, and has a telescoping support arm 22. The pipes 8, 9 can be arranged, i.e. stored, inserted into one another in pipe depositories 11, 12, 13 forming a partial circle 15 and can also be pulled out of them and swiveled into the drilling axis 7 with the aid of the gripper 20. When pulling the drilling string, the pipes 8, 9 can then be individually fanned out into the pipe depositories 11, 12, 13 and then later on the outer pipes 8 can be slid over. The entire process is operated automatically with the gripper 20.
