Abstract: The present invention relates polyester tufted carpet where the tufts are engaged with a primary polyester backing and where a polyester roll coating is applied to the backside of the primary backing to lock the tufts which therefore avoids the use of a latex adhesive. The present invention also relates to the use of a polyester roll coating applied to the backside of a nonwoven polyester carpet.

Abstract: A method for conveying material wherein a conveyor belt is guided over head drums so as to form a forward travelling and returning stretch. The conveyor belt is guided in such a way that the forward travelling and returning stretches intersect each other as seen in the horizontal projection, i.e., as seen in the direction of the drum axes, and the conveyor belt travels over both head drums from the top toward the bottom.

Abstract: A conveyor, in particular tubular conveyor, includes a conveyor belt (1) guided over head drums (2, 3) so as to form a forward traveling and returning stretch (4, 6). The conveyor belt is guided in such a way that the forward traveling and returning stretches intersect each other as seen in the horizontal projection, i.e., as seen in the direction of the drum axes, and the conveyor belt (1) travels over both head drums (2, 3) from the top toward the bottom.

Abstract: A liquid filter, particularly for the lubricating oil of an internal combustion engine, having at least one replaceable filter and a carrier module, in which the replaceable filter has a housing with an inlet and an outlet for the liquid to be filtered; a housing vessel with an opening pointing essentially downward is provided, and a filter medium is arranged in the housing between the inlet and outlet in a sealed manner. The replaceable filter with the opening pointing downward is attached in a sealed manner to the carrier module, and the carrier module has semiautomatic emptying device for the replaceable filter such that emptying of the replaceable filter is initiated by an external operation which opens a drain passage, and the drain passage is automatically closed again after the emptying process is completed.

Abstract: A friction bearing composite material comprises a metal base layer, a porous support layer applied thereto, and a low friction layer made from PTFE forming a bearing surface for a bearing partner. The low friction material forming the sliding surface also fills the pores in the support layer and comprises at least 60 vol. % PTFE and 10-25 vol. % zinc sulphide. In order to achieve a high wear resistance with a low coefficient of friction, the low friction material further comprises 1.5-3.5 vol. % carbon fibers and 1-7 vol. % PFA.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite material for a sliding bearing comprising a metallic support layer, a porous carrier layer applied thereon and a PTFE-based sliding layer that forms a sliding surface for a sliding partner. Said material is characterised in that the material that forms the sliding layer also fills the pores of the carrier layer and contains at least 65 vol. % PTFE and 10-25 vol. % zinc sulphide. In order to provide a high degree of wear resistance with a low friction coefficient, the material of the sliding layer contains in addition 1.5-3.5 vol. % carbon fibers and 3-7 vol. % PPSO2.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite material comprising a metallic support layer a porous carrier layer applied thereto and a PTFE based slide layer that is used as the sliding surface for a sliding partner. The sliding surface material forming the sliding surface also fills out the pores of the carrier layer and comprises at least 60% PTFE by volume and 10-25% zinc sulfide by volume. The sliding surface material further comprises 2-7% PFA by volume and 3-7% PPSO2 volume.

Abstract: A hinge housing has a flange bearing bush pressed into a transverse bearing opening. A bearing pin is swively inserted in the flange bearing bush. The plain bearing is a ready-to-install unit in that the cylindrical bush part of the flange bearing bush inserted in the bearing opening is deformed radially outwards and radially inwards by axially upsetting the front face and rests on the inner wall of the bearing opening and against the circumferential surface of the bearing pin without play. The front face is recessed behind the surface of the hinge housing part. One side of the plain bearing has an axial bearing element that exteriorly rests radially against the surface area of the hinge housing part surrounding the bearing opening and radially interiorly against an axial step of the bearing pin. The bearing pin is secured in a position in the axial direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a slide bearing comprising with a bearing opening (4) pertaining to a hinge-housing component (2) and a flange bearing box (6) pressed into said bearing opening (4), whereby a bearing pin (26) can be inserted and rotated therein. Said flange bearing box (6) has a crimped projection (50) which projects radially inwards in the direction of the periphery. In order to create a slide bearing which can be preassembled, said slide-bearing is formed such that said crimped projection (50), when viewed from a longitudinal section of the box forms as a curved region (52) in the wall of said flange bearing box (6) in the vicinity of the axial end of the bearing opening (4) and said curved region (52) projects into the flange (16) of the box (6) in such a way that a space (h) is created between the opening (4) and of the bearing outer side which faces the flange bearing box (6) in the region of the curved profile prior to insertion of the bearing pins (26).

Abstract: A wrapped plain bearing bush having a bush width which varies in the peripheral direction. The bush is characterized in that it is wrapped from a strip-shaped band section which is provided with a variable over the length of the section while still in its flat state and which is wrapped in such a way that the wrapped bush does not need to be subjected to any further cutting of the width; but, instead, has its definitive, variable bush width after wrapping on the bush mold.

Abstract: A roll-formed sliding surface bearing bushing is circular in an installed state and has a butt joint which extends throughout the width of the bushing and is closed in an installed state. To ensure a backlash-free bearing arrangement, the bushing has on its outside peripheral surface a trapezoidal profile, which includes an angle of 1.degree. to 30.degree. with the plane which contains the longitudinal axis of the bushing.

Abstract: In order to improve a bush-like antifriction bearing element for mounting a shaft, a pivot or other revolving component so that penetration of dirt into the bearing as well as out of the bearing, the antifriction bearing element is made pot-shaped so that the end of the antifriction bearing element remote from the end for insertion of the shaft, the pivot or the like, is defined by a bottom portion.
