Abstract: A rocker arm or finger lever (1) formed without machining (by a non-cutting shaping process) which has a U-shaped profile in cross section over almost its entire length which is open toward the top or the bottom, whereby the rocker arm or finger lever (1), in its end region in which it contacts a valve shaft end, is constructed double-walled. This rocker arm or finger lever (1) is distinguished in that the double-walled section or at least a strap (13) projecting over the longitudinal extension of the rocker arm or finger lever (1) is formed on an upper wall (10) which is bent under and lies between its two side walls (11, 12). A lever configured in this manner can be manufactured economically and has a good rigidity despite the reduced material used.

Abstract: In order to improve a method of injecting a first and a second fuel component into a combustion chamber, particularly of a rocket engine, wherein an injection element guides the first fuel component in an inner cylindrical stream and the injection element guides the second fuel component in an annular stream surrounding the inner cylindrical stream, so that by comparison with known methods improved mixing and more homogeneous preparation of the fuel takes place on injection into the combustion chamber, it is proposed that in the injection element the first and/or the second fuel component is guided by an element which produces a pressure drop and is disposed and constructed in such a way that the energy released during the pressure drop is at least partially converted into turbulence energy of the stream of the first and/or the second fuel component in order to achieve a good intermixing of the two fuel components in the mixing zone.

Abstract: The dry end of a paper machine comprises a first dryer group with top drying cylinders, with a first drying wire and with bottom deflection suction rolls. Adjacent this, there is a second dryer group with bottom drying cylinders, with a second drying screen and with top deflection suction rolls. In this way, both sides of the web to be dried come, in succession, into direct contact with the drying cylinders. At the place where the web changes from the first drying wire to the second drying wire, there is a transfer suction roll which lies within the loop of the second support belt. The web travels there from the last cylinder of the first dryer group over an at least approximately straight travel path to the transfer suction roll and thus onto the second support belt.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dryer section of a machine for the production of fibrous web, such as a paper web. The dryer section comprises at least one dryer group having at least one drying cylinder and an endless porous support belt that guides the web around each cylinder. This is followed by a reversing roll being formed as a suction roll. With the web being supported by said porous support belt the web directly contacts said reversing roll. A distance of at least 150 mm is provided between the cylinder and the reversing roll. A sealing strip extends transversely over and close to the inner side of the endless porous belt in the region where web and belt are traveling off the cylinder. For deflecting the air boundary layer which arrives together with the belt, a sealing support beam also extends transversely over the inner side of the belt and supports the sealing strip.

Abstract: An arrangement for transferring a paper web from the last drying cylinder of a first dryer group to the first dryer cylinder of a second dryer group. The last of the first drying cylinders lies outside a first endless loop porous support belt of the first dryer group. The first of the second drying cylinders lies outside a second endless loop porous support belt of the second dryer group. A first guide roll lies inside the loop of the first belt and is spaced from the first cylinder. A second guide roll lies inside the loop of the second belt, and is spaced from the second drying cylinder and along the path of the first belt between the first drying cylinder and the first guide roll. The second belt wraps around the second guide roll and the web on the first belt contacts the second belt on the path of the first belt toward the first guide roll.

Abstract: The dry end of a paper machine comprises a first dryer group with top drying cylinders (11 to 14), with a first drying wire (10) and with bottom deflection suction rolls (21 to 23). Adjacent this, there is a second dryer group with bottom drying cylinders (15 to 18), with a second drying screen (20) and with top deflection suction rolls (25 to 27).
