  • Patent number: 11987998
    Abstract: A climbing device is proposed having at least one climbing rail for adjusting and/or climbing a scaffolding and/or a formwork and/or a platform, at least one climbing shoe being arranged on the climbing rail, at least one hydraulic cylinder comprising at least one drive piston, arranged in a cylinder housing, and having a hydraulic fluid being provided for raising the climbing shoe and/or the climbing rail and/or the scaffolding and/or the formwork and/or the platform, which at least partially avoids or at least reduces the disadvantages of the prior art. According to the invention this is achieved in that the hydraulic cylinder is embodied as a hydraulic unit, the hydraulic unit comprising at least one hydraulic tank for storing hydraulic fluid, an electric motor and a hydraulic pump driven by the electric motor for pressurizing the hydraulic fluid.

  • Patent number: 11923132
    Abstract: A solenoidal magnet section has a high-temperature-superconductor tape wound in a solenoidal manner in a main winding chamber of a coil former. Two joints, each from the HTS tape to a follow-on superconductor, are integrated in the magnet section. The terminal sections of the HTS tape and the associated follow-on superconductor are each wound onto the coil former and connected to one another in a laminar manner. The regions of the first and second joint are axially offset from each other and the main winding chamber. The magnet section occupies a radial range with limits less than 20% larger than the outer radius of the main HTS winding package and less than 20% smaller than the inner radius of the coil former in the region of the main winding chamber. A plurality of magnet sections can be inserted one inside the other to form a magnet coil assembly.

  • Patent number: 10545206
    Abstract: A superconductive magnet coil assembly includes a layer-wound coil that is cylindrically symmetric, wherein the rectangular coil cross section of the coil has a first rectangular portion (1; 1?; 1?; 1??) within the coil cross section, and at least one second rectangular portion (2; 2?; 2?; 2??) and third rectangular portion (3; 3?; 3?; 3??) within the first portion which spans the first portion completely in the radial direction and in part in the axial direction, the second portion being completely wound with the first strip-like superconductor, and the third portion being completely wound with the second strip-like superconductor, and the strip-like superconductors being guided into a region outside the coil cross section and being electrically connected there, and wherein the second and the third rectangular portions are disjunct.

  • Publication number: 20170320131
    Abstract: A system (5) and method (800) for unit cell casting of titanium or titanium-alloys is disclosed herein. The system (5) comprises an external chamber (45), a crucible (10) positioned within the external chamber (45), an induction coil (15) positioned around the crucible, an internal chamber (40) positioned within the external chamber (45), and a mold (30) positioned within the internal chamber (40). The external chamber (45) is evacuated and a pressurized gas is injected into the evacuated external chamber (45) to create a pressurized external chamber (45). An ingot (20) is melted within the crucible utilizing induction heating generated by the induction coil (15). The internal chamber (40) is evacuated to create an evacuated internal chamber (40). The titanium alloy material of the ingot (20) is completely transferred into the mold (30) from the crucible (10) using a pressure differential created between the external chamber (45) and the internal chamber (40).

  • Patent number: 8712489
    Abstract: A magnet coil configuration (20-24) is manufactured from a band-shaped conductor (1), which is slit in the longitudinal direction except for its two end areas (2, 3) such that the band-shaped conductor (1) has a first and a second half band (4, 5) and two end areas (2, 3) which connect these two half bands (4, 5) to form a closed loop. The two half-bands (4,5) of the slit band-shaped conductor (1) are initially wound onto two separate intermediate coils (14,15) and the final coil structure is subsequently wound by alternate extraction of the two half-bands (4,5) from the intermediate coils (14,15). A simple method is thereby proposed for winding a slit band-shaped conductor to form a magnet coil configuration which also generates strong magnetic fields.

  • Publication number: 20050011035
    Abstract: A vacuum cleaning system for a vehicle includes a console (12), which may be centrally positioned between the front seats (16) of the vehicle. A canister (10), in the form of a drawer to the console, is selectively removed, when vacuuming is to be commenced, and a flexible hose (96) unclamped from a side compartment (112) of the canister. The canister, with the hose attached, is carried by a handle strap (58) to a part of the car to be cleaned. A motor fan assembly (70) within the canister is powered from the vehicle's battery by means of a power cord (84) to draw dirt into a dirt cup (90) in the canister. Entrained air passes from the dirt cup through a filter (94) and is directed by the fan to an exhaust outlet (82) in the canister.
