| 20080218021 | ROTOR ARRANGEMENT FOR A UNILATERAL TRANSVERSE FLUX MACHINE WITH FLUX CONCENTRATION - The invention relates to a rotor arrangement for a unilateral transverse flux machine with flux concentration which is in interaction via an air gap with a coaxially arranged stator arrangement with stator poles and interposed annular winding, and comprises rotor pole shoes in the circumferential direction with interposed permanent magnets with changing poling, characterized in that a rotor pole unit with rotor pole shoes is provided for each stator pole unit of the stator pole arrangement, with adjacent rotor pole shoes of one phase being connected with one keeper ( | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080207418 | Deflection Compensating Roll - A deflection compensating roller including a rotating roller casing, a rotationally fixed yoke axially extending through the roller casing, at least one hydrostatic support device arranged between the yoke and the roller casing, the at least one hydrostatic support device comprising a pressure compartment and at least one oil pocket that communicates with the pressure compartment via at least one first restricted flow zone and at least one second restricted flow zone, and a fluid comprising at least one of an electrorheological fluid (ERF) and a ferro fluid. A viscosity of the fluid is adapted to be varied by way of one of an electric and magnetic field. This abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080202881 | STARTER UNIT - The invention concerns a starter unit having a hydrodynamic clutch with a pump wheel and a turbine wheel which form together a torus-shaped working space, which can be filled and emptied with working medium by way of a supply and discharge medium. A circulatory flow of the working medium can be provided in said working space; at which a throttling component has been provided which can be moved by means of a pressure- controlled adjusting mechanism in order to affect the circulatory flow in and/or at the working space; and a mechanical bridging clutch having at least two coupling elements which can be placed in a friction-locked connection to each other via a pressure-controlled clutch-engaging device so that the pump wheel and the turbine wheel are torque connected. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080196855 | PRESS SECTION AND PERMEABLE BELT IN A PAPER MACHINE - A permeable belt, a belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and the permeable belt, and a method of drying or pressing a web with the permeable belt. The permeable belt can be tensioned to at least 30 KN/m. A side of the permeable belt has an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 25%. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 08-21-2008 |
