  • Publication number: 20120256029
    Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed and pictured illustrate a hammer for comminuting various materials. The embodiments pictured and described herein are primarily for use with a rotatable hammermill assembly. The double end hammer includes a connection portion having a slot therein and two contact ends for delivery of energy to the material to be comminuted. The contact ends may be formed with a cavity therein. The contact ends may also be formed with an angle on the contact end periphery. The cavity and/or the angle on the contact end periphery may be used with hammers other than the double end hammers.

  • Patent number: 7837533
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus (10) for processing and measuring workpieces, in particular plate-shaped or cylindrical workpieces, which are provided with cutting teeth (S), with a machine base (12), a processing and measuring device (14) which can be moved relative to the machine base (12), and a workpiece positioning device (16) which can be moved relative to the machine base (12), wherein the processing and measuring device (14) has a pivoting head (26) which can be moved relative to the machine base (12) such that it can pivot about a pivot axis (E1), wherein a processing tool (28) and a measuring probe (30) are provided on the pivoting head (26). In this case provision is made for the processing tool (28) to project from one side of the pivoting head (26) and for the measuring probe (30) to project from the side of the pivoting head (26) which is opposite with respect to the pivot axis (E1).

  • Patent number: 7261024
    Abstract: The device is constructed with a tensioning spindle (12), a counter-holder (14) and a carrier (30), at least the tensioning spindle (12) being mounted such that it is rotatable about the longitudinal axis, and the carrier (14) being fixed to the tensioning spindle (12) and, when the workpiece (50) is clamped between the tensioning spindle (12) and the counter-holder (14), being capable of being brought into engagement with the workpiece (50) in such a way that it transmits a rotary movement of the tensioning spindle (12) to the workpiece (50). The device furthermore provides for the carrier to have a spring element (30) which can be coupled to the workpiece (50) under prestress to transmit a torque.
