Abstract: A holder for holding a metal component part, which has at least one internal passage which is accessible by an opening in an external surface of the component part. The holder is equipped with a bearing element, which comprises a bearing surface, which is designed in such a way that it allows a seating of the component part on the bearing element, and in this case serves as a support for at least a part of the external surface of the component part which has the opening, and a flow passage, which leads through the bearing element, with at least one outlet opening located in the bearing surface. The outlet opening is located in the bearing surface in such a way that, with the component part seated, it lies opposite the opening of the internal passage. Furthermore, the outlet opening in shape and flow cross section is adapted to the opening of the internal passage.

Abstract: A method for coating of a component part is made available, in which an evaporating of a coating material from a material feeder at low ambient pressure is brought about. The component part which is to be coated is located sufficiently near to the material feeder in such a way that, as a result, a depositing of vaporized coating material on the surface of the component part is brought about. A rotation of the component part around a rotational axis takes place while it is located sufficiently near to the material feeder for the bringing about of the depositing of coating material. The rotational axis is pivoted from a standard position towards the material feeder before or during the coating.

Abstract: In internal coating processes there is often the problem that an outer surface of the component to be coated is also coated. The device according to the invention consists in the fact that the outer surface is protected by a robust outer envelope and a filling material between the component to be coated and the outer envelope.

Abstract: A tensioning device for attraction mechanism including a receiving and mounting housing, a roller carrier pivotably connected to the mounting housing, a bearing which radially supports the roller carrier relative to the mounting housing, a spring between the roller carrier and the mounting housing for applying a tensioning force, and a damping device. The damping device includes a damping bush which, by friction, dampens any movement between the roller carrier and the mounting housing in such a way that damping is greater in the direction of an increasing tension force than in the direction of decreasing tension force. A flat band spring applies the friction force to the damping bush. The flat band spring is secured, at a first end, to the receiving and mounting housing in a rotationally fast way, and at a second end to the damping bush in a rotationally fast way.

Abstract: A belt tensioning device having a substantially cylindrical receiving housing and a hub coaxially arranged therein. The receiving housing and the hub are supported so as to be rotatable relative to one another as well as supported by a helical torsion spring so as to be pretensioned relative to one another. A damping device is provided which comprises a circumferentially slotted damping bush and a strip spring adapted to the damping bush, wherein the damping bush rests against the inside of the receiving housing. The strip spring is arranged between the damping bush and the torsion spring. The strip spring and the torsion spring are connected in series, wherein one of the two is supported on the receiving housing and the other one of the two on the hub.

Abstract: A belt tensioning device for traction mechanisms includes a receiving and mounting housing, a pulley carrier pivotally connected to the receiving and mounting housing, a bearing supporting the pulley carrier relative to the receiving and mounting housing, and a spring located between the pulley carrier and the receiving and mounting housing for applying the tensioning force. The belt tensioning device, in normal operation, on the slack side between a generator and a main pulley can also be used when the slack side becomes the load side by a blocking mechanism which enables swinging motion of the pulley carrier relative to the receiving and mounting housing in a first direction, and limits or prevents such motion in a second, opposite direction.

Abstract: Coatings that are applied to a component have to be removed again from certain areas using costly methods, because coating was not required in those areas. The subsequent removal of this layer can impair the component, for example in terms of its geometry. The inventive method for coating a component uses a mask, which consists at least partially of a ceramic powder and can therefore easily be removed after the component has been coated.
