Abstract: A power generation installation in which exhaust gas from a gas turbine is fed to a thermal energy accumulator, wherein energy in the thermal energy accumulator can be employed for various purposes, a method for operating such an installation, and a method for the modification of existing installations. The thermal energy accumulator has sufficient capacity to permit the operation of a steam turbine in isolation for the storage of thermal energy from exhaust gas in the thermal energy accumulator.

Abstract: An energy generation plant in which the exhaust gas from a gas turbine is guided into a thermal energy store, wherein the thermal energy store can be used for various purposes. The energy generation plant has at least one gas turbine having an exhaust gas apparatus, at least one generator, at least one thermal energy store, wherein the generator can be driven by the gas turbine, wherein the hot exhaust gas from the gas turbine is passed directly to a thermal energy store via the exhaust gas apparatus, wherein the thermal energy from the thermal energy store can be used to generate power.

Abstract: A rotary abrasive tool comprising an abrasive arranged in a predetermined pattern around a periphery of the rotary abrasive tool to simulate saw teeth, and a method of manufacturing such rotary abrasive tool Preferably, a single layer of abrasive is applied on the rotary abrasive tool. Each simulated saw tooth has a centerline which is not perpendicular to a cutting surface of the rotary abrasive tool.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for expelling liquid from a wiping element which is held on a wiping head of a surface cleaning device so as to form a wiping surface, comprising a container, in which a wiping element holding device accommodating the wiping element as well as a driving device are arranged, wherein the wiping element holding device can be driven by means of the driving device so as to rotate about an axis of rotation. In order to further develop the device in such a manner that it has a lower consumption of energy it is suggested in accordance with the invention that the wiping element holding device form a receiving means, into which the wiping element can be inserted with a surface normal of the wiping surface aligned at an angle to the axis of rotation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for rinsing out and spin drying a wiping body, which is mounted on a wiping head of a surface cleaning device, comprising a container which has a rinsing region and a spin dryer region, a wiping head mount being mounted rotatably in the spin dryer region, into which wiping head mount the wiping head can be inserted together with the wiping body and which wiping head mount can be driven rotationally by means of a drive device in order to remove moisture from the wiping body, the rinsing region accommodating a cleaning fluid, and it being possible for the wiping head together with the wiping body to be inserted into the rinsing region.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for spinning liquid out of a wiping body, which is mounted on a wiping head of a surface cleaning device, comprising a container, in which a wiping head mount is mounted rotatably, into which mount the wiping head can be inserted together with the wiping body and which can be driven rotationally about an axis of rotation by means of a drive device in order to remove moisture from the wiping body. In order to further develop the device in such a manner that its power consumption can be kept to a low level, it is proposed according to the invention that the device comprises a measuring element for determining a degree of drying or a spin drying time of the wiping body, there being associated with the measuring element an indicating unit for indicating when a specific degree of drying has been reached or a specific spin drying time has elapsed.
