  • Patent number: 7515399
    Abstract: In order to render possible a compact means for power distribution and fuse protection on the basis of a printed circuit board, the apparatus has a multiple fuse arrangement which comprises a plurality of fuses and is connected to a plurality of output contacts. Furthermore, a printed circuit board is provided, which has a feed plate, which is connected to the multiple fuse arrangement, in particular by means of plug-in contact elements, arranged on one of its sides. The output contacts are arranged on that side of the printed circuit board which is opposite the feed plate.

  • Patent number: 5622040
    Abstract: A magnetic bearing is disclosed for an open-end spinning rotor having a shaft supported in a wedge-like gap formed between at least one pair of support rollers. The bearing comprises a housing for receiving the shaft, a magnet disposed in the housing to extend radially relative to the shaft, and a magnet disposed on and radially extending from the shaft axially adjacent and at a spacing from the magnet in the bearing housing. The magnets have respective poles of the same magnetic orientation disposed to face and thereby repel one another. According to the invention, a coupling connects the shaft and the magnet disposed on the shaft, the coupling being releasable in response to an axial force exerted on the shaft.
