Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100282552Brake Disc Having Ribs Arranged Between Two Friction Rings - A brake disc is provided having ribs which are arranged between two friction rings, extend essentially in the radial direction and bound air cooling ducts by their side walls standing essentially perpendicular to the surface of the friction rings. At least one of the side walls of one, two, three, or five ribs is inclined with respect to the perpendicularly standing ribs in order to avoid disturbing squealing noise. In the case of at least one of the ribs having at least one inclined side wall, the rib thickness measured in the direction perpendicular with respect to the side wall differs from the thickness of the perpendicularly standing ribs. In the case of two, three, or five ribs, of which at least one side wall is inclined with respect to the perpendicularly standing ribs, the angles enclosed between these ribs having the inclined side wall preferably are not all the same. Any imbalance resulting from this non-uniform distribution of ribs having an inclined side wall is essentially eliminated by adding material on appropriately selected perpendicularly standing ribs.11-11-2010

20110239719METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCTION OF HELICAL SPRINGS BY SPRING WINDING - A method produces helical springs by spring winding with a numerically controlled spring winding machine, a wire is fed, controlled by an NC control program, through a feed device to a forming device of the spring winding machine and is formed with the aid of tools in the forming device to form a helical spring. A measurement time is defined which occurs in a final phase of an overall manufacturing time for the helical spring at a time period before the end of the overall manufacturing time. A position of a spring end which is formed by an end surface of the wire is measured at this measurement time to determine an actual angle position of the spring end. A remaining distance for the wire feed is then calculated to achieve a nominal angle position of the spring end, as intended for the helical spring, at a reference time which occurs at a later time and the wire is fed through the remaining distance. The method allows the relative angle position of the spring ends of a helical spring to be set very precisely.10-06-2011
