Abstract: Method and device for cutting out sheet metal blanks preferably from a coil of a thin sheet metal strip , with stepped uncoiling and straightening of the metal strip in the longitudinal direction of the device on a processing platform.

Abstract: Method and device for cutting out sheet metal blanks preferably from a coil (2) of a thin sheet metal strip (4), with stepped uncoiling and straightening of the metal strip (4) in the longitudinal direction of the device on a processing platform (10). In a first operation, the metal strip (4) is gripped above the processing platform (10) by a lateral clamping frame (14) and tensioned in the transverse direction relative to the feed direction. In a cutting position (6) the strip (4) is initially cut except for the webs that hold the blanks in the residual strip (4). The initially cut strip (4), still clamped, is then moved into a depositing position (7) above a depositing platform (12) by pull-out rollers (8) that tension the metal strip (4) in the longitudinal direction. The precut strip (4) and the cutting head(s) (15) are jointly moved into the depositing position where the cutting head(s) (15) that performed the main cutting operation severs the webs and the blanks are stacked in sorted fashion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filling means (1) for root canals in humans and animals, having a proximal end (5) and a distal end (4), which filling means comprises an elongate electrically conductive element (2) sheathed in an isoprene-based matrix (3), characterized in the distal end of the electrically conductive element lies exposed. The invention relates also to a method of preparing the filing means according to the invention.

Abstract: A mounting assembly for a machine tool carriage is driven by linear motors (4) at each end guided on fixed parallel rails running parallel to one another. At each end the bridge of the carriage has bearing plates seated on the linear motor friction plates against which it is urged by spring force. As each end of the bridge has a mounting bolt extending through the bridge and bear plate and is pivotably seated in a guide aperture in the carrier. On at least one end of the bridge, the guide bolt aperture is elongated so that the bridge can pivot about the guide bolt at the other end.

Abstract: An assembly for abrasive agent recovery in water jet cutting units including a separator (4) for separating usable abrasive agent from sludge and water and a drying oven (9). A conveyor (6) follows the separator (4) for transporting the overwhelmingly usable abrasive agent separated in portions by the separator (4) and compression rollers (30) adjacent the conveyors press remaining water out of the portions located on the conveyor. The portions on the conveyor are blown by a compressed air unit (8) and a spraying nozzle into the drying oven (9), through which warmed exhaust air, further heated in the drying oven (9), flows. The drying oven (9) consists of a climbing shaft (12), closed via a heater (10) with a screen (11), an eddy chamber (16) connected to a funnel (17) to the lower end the eddy chamber (16), a line (18) from the eddy chamber (16) to a catching tank (19), and a suction connection (20).

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring the closing of a window by an electric motor, particularly a window pane of a motor vehicle, has a sender and a receiver for electro-magnetic transmissions and at least one light-deflecting mechanism which guides electro-magnetic emissions, or waves, from the sender to the receiver. The apparatus can be used in conjunction with devices for stopping or reversing motion of the window pane if during the closing thereof the transmission intensity received at the receiver changes, the light-deflecting mechanism being arranged along at least portions of an upper edge of a window opening.
