  • Publication number: 20240102641
    Abstract: An industrial luminaire having at least two segments, a first segment including a lamp which is configured to illuminate a room and/or an environment, and a second segment including a signal generator which is configured to provide a signal as a function of an information, wherein each of the segments is adapted to be driven independently of the other segment and wherein a signal can be output and, at the same time, a room and/or an environment can be illuminated by the segments.

  • Publication number: 20140021419
    Abstract: Method for producing foam glass by recycling wasteglass mixture containing screen glass from television sets, computers, monitors and glass from fluorescent tubes, light bulbs and photovoltaic systems. Steps are: separately grinding individual fractions of wasteglass from various sources, forming glass powder; mixing a sintered glass composition including components of various glass powder fractions and an inorganic carbon carrier substance as activator in a dry process without adding water or liquids; and thermally treating the sintered glass composition. This composition is first subjected to a sintering process and later to a foaming process, at temperatures in a range of 855° C. to 890° C. The arising foam glass is subsequently cooled down. The sintered glass composition, which is thermally sintered glass powder and activator, is composed of at least 10 wt % of screen glass, with 85 to 90 wt % originating from screen glass and glass from fluorescent tubes, light bulbs and photovoltaic systems.

  • Publication number: 20110100598
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for cooling at least one electrical and/or electronic component and/or group of electrical/electronic components by means of a cooling body. The cooling body demonstrates at least one recess into which the electrical/electronic component and/or the group of electrical/electronic components to be cooled can be inserted. Introduced into the recess of the cooling body is a medium, which nearly completely surrounds the at least one electrical/electronic component and/or the group of electrical/electronic components in their state of insertion into the recess.

  • Publication number: 20100043436
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for obtaining electrical energy from low temperature or waste heat. The heat energy is then converted into electrical energy. Two heat exchangers (1, 2) are configured as two pressure vessels and are connected to a gas-pressure machine (4) built into a pressure vessel (3). Process gas is introduced into the heat exchangers (1, 2) at a pressure of 20 to 200 MPa and thereafter, simultaneously, heat is introduced via a flow channel (7) into the heat exchanger (1) and the cold is introduced into the heat exchanger (2) via a flow channel (8).
