  • Publication number: 20230159097
    Abstract: A steering axle for a steerable vehicle includes an axle housing, a steering motor, a steering gear, a first steering knuckle with a first steering arm, a second steering knuckle with a second steering arm, a coupling rod, a first tie rod, and a second tie rod. The first and second steering arms are each rigidly arranged on a respective steering knuckle that is hinged in the axle housing. The first and second tie rods are each hinged at a first end to a respective steering arm and hinged at a second end to the coupling rod. The steering axle is configured so that the steering motor can set a steering angle of the steering axle via the steering gear. The steering axle has first and second intermediate steering levers, each hinged at its first end to the axle body and hinged at its second end to the coupling rod.

  • Patent number: 11473269
    Abstract: An electric drive arrangement for a drive train of a work machine includes a multi gear transmission. The multi gear transmission includes at least two gears that provide different transmission ratios for various driving modes of the work machine, a multi gear transmission drive, and a multi gear transmission output configured to be mechanically coupled to an axle of the drive train. The electric drive arrangement further includes an electric motor configured to drive a driving movement of the work machine via a shaft that is mechanically coupled to the multi gear transmission drive of the multi gear transmission.

  • Patent number: 9340084
    Abstract: A drive axle for industrial trucks is, by fastening mechanisms, on the one hand able to be connected to the vehicle frame and, on the other hand, connected to the axle housing. Flexible elements that take effect in the main directions of force in such a manner that they are mainly subject to pressure are arranged between the fastening mechanisms and the axle housing.

  • Patent number: 8549224
    Abstract: In an analyzer device, a method for identifying a logical unit (LUN) of a data storage system as a candidate for migration to a second storage group is presented. The method includes receiving, by the analyzer device, a set of data associated with activity of the LUN of a first storage group, comparing, by the analyzer device, a performance metric value of a performance metric of the set of data, associated with the LUN, to a performance metric threshold associated with the performance metric, and when the performance metric value corresponds to the performance metric threshold, categorizing, by the analyzer device, the LUN as a candidate for storage on the second storage group, the second storage group distinct from the first storage group and having a disk type different from that of the first storage group.

  • Patent number: 8015327
    Abstract: Described are techniques for managing a wait queue in a system. A plurality of buckets associated with the wait queue are defined. Each of the plurality of buckets is associated with one of more queue depth values and one or more counters. For each received request for service, a current depth of the wait queue indicating a number of other requests included in the wait queue waiting to be serviced is determined, a bucket in accordance with the current depth of the wait queue is selected and information is recorded by updating said one or more counters of the bucket selected. The received request is placed in the wait queue if there is another request currently being serviced or if there is at least one other request currently in the wait queue.

  • Patent number: 5298193
    Abstract: The novel surfactant compositions are obtained by mixing 1 part by weight of at least one nonionic surfactant and 0.3 to 9 parts by weight of a specific mixture composed of water and at least one anionic surfactant and at least one cationic surfactant. The said surfactant compositions are concentrated and generally clear liquids which, in particular, have good foaming and wetting characteristics, low surface tension and a low pour point and are versatile by virtue of these particular properties.

  • Patent number: 4443363
    Abstract: A detergent composition is described which is particularly suitable for the mechanical cleaning of hard surfaces, in particular glass, porcelain and the like, in a cleaning liquor which is within the alkaline range. This detergent composition is composed of(A) a nonionic surfactant selected from the group comprising polyalkylene glycol monoalkyl ethers containing ethylene oxide and propylene oxide units, polyglycol ether formals containing ethylene oxide units and, if appropriate, propylene oxide units, or polyalkylene glycol dialkyl ethers containing ethylene oxide units and, if appropriate, propylene oxide units, and(B) a selected quaternary ammonium compound as a cationic surfactant.These compositions are particularly suitable for industrial crockery and bottle washing plants which are operated within the highly alkaline pH range and with vigorous mechanical agitation of the liquor.
