  • Patent number: 8522525
    Abstract: A device and method for drawing off and recirculating cooling streams, specifically for drawing off and recirculating a cooling stream of fuel for cooling at least one aircraft engine accessory, is disclosed. The device having a tubular jacket part defining a flow cross-section through which a primary stream, specifically a fuel stream, flows by way of an extraction pipe which is positioned approximately in the center of the flow cross-section, or jacket part, in order to draw off a cooling stream from the primary stream, by way of a hollow strut extending in the radial direction to divert this cooling stream from the device with the aid of the extraction pipe and to supply it to at least one accessory to be cooled, and by way of a return opening to recirculate the cooling stream directed through the accessory for cooling purposes to the primary stream.

  • Patent number: 8474675
    Abstract: A device for automatically controlling the edges of a web of sheeting has a first deflecting roller and a second deflecting roller, which are arranged parallel to each other, and also a drive for shifting the deflecting rollers in opposite axial directions. A sensor detects the position of the sheeting. The drive shifts the deflecting rollers in opposite axial directions and the ratio between the friction of the sheeting on the first deflecting roller and the friction of the sheeting on the second deflecting roller is changed on the basis of the position of the sheeting detected by the sensor.

  • Patent number: 7431064
    Abstract: A press for laminating together a pair of foils has an upper die and a movable lower die, the foil extending. An actuating plate is movable toward and array from the stationary die. A spring is provided between the actuating plate and the movable die. A drive displaces the actuating plate and the movable die carried by the spring thereon toward and away from the stationary die for compressing the foils between the dies when the dies are spaced apart by a predetermined distance equal substantially to a thickness of the foils. A sensor detects movement of the movable die toward the actuating plate with compression of the spring on movement of the actuating plate toward the stationary die. When the sensor detects movement of the movable die when the dies are spaced apart by a distance greater than the predetermined distance the actuating plate is arrested.

  • Publication number: 20070262342
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a light emitting region, a p-type region disposed on a first side of the light emitting region, and an n-type region disposed on a second side of the light emitting region. At least 10% of a thickness of the semiconductor structure on the first side of the light emitting region comprises indium. Some examples of such a semiconductor light emitting device may be formed by growing an n-type region, growing a p-type region, and growing a light emitting layer disposed between the n-type region and the p-type region. The difference in temperature between the growth temperature of a part of the n-type region and the growth temperature of a part of the p-type region is at least 140° C.

    Abstract: In a device, a III-nitride light emitting layer is disposed between an n-type region and a p-type region. A first spacer layer, which is disposed between the n-type region and the light emitting layer, is doped to a dopant concentration between 6×1018 cm3 and 5×1019 cm?3. A second spacer layer, which is disposed between the p-type region and the light emitting layer, is not intentionally doped or doped to a dopant concentration less than 6×1018 cm?3.

  • Publication number: 20060011937
    Abstract: In a III-nitride light emitting device, a ternary or quaternary light emitting layer is configured to control the degree of phase separation. In some embodiments, the difference between the InN composition at any point in the light emitting layer and the average InN composition in the light emitting layer is less than 20%. In some embodiments, control of phase separation is accomplished by controlling the ratio of the lattice constant in a relaxed, free standing layer having the same composition as the light emitting layer to the lattice constant in a base region. For example, the ratio may be between about 1 and about 1.01.
