Patent EP-0288505-B1 (EP)
IPC: C06B21/00
Filed: 1987-10-08
Granted: 1992-03-11
Abstract: In order to produce bivalent powder for propulsive charges by the solvent-free process, the rough mixture of damp powder is kneaded at a high temperature in a shear cylinder, to which the mixture is continually fed and on an end face of which the gelled mixture is continually removed and immediately granulated in a continuous manner. The granulate obtained is continuously fed to an extruding machine by means of which it is coiled in the form of powder strips which are converted, by cutting and finishing treatment, into a finished powdery product. This process offers the dual advantage of combining entirely continuous operation with a high degree of reliability.

Abstract: A shifting arrangement for an automatic transmission of a motor vehicle controlled by an electronic control apparatus includes a selector lever to be operated manually. By displacement of the selector lever in a first shifting lane, the different transmission speeds can be selected. After shifting the shifting lever by way of a transverse lane into a second shifting lane, the desired forward speed can be manually engaged by means of the same. The shifting operation is picked up by means of a sensor which influences a shifting unit. The shifting unit effects the maintenance of an actually engaged transmission speed during a change of the shifting lane.

Abstract: In pulsed arc welding with a continuously fed electrode, nominal values are set for the basic current (Ibn) and the basic time (Tbn) during which a given quantity of material of the end of the electrode is fused, and for the pulse current (Ip) and the pulse time (Tp), during which a drop of fused material is cut off, by the pinching force, from the end of the electrode and is transported towards the welding point. The spatter losses are minimized by controlling the value of the pulse current, which is decisive for the size of the pinching force, and the size of the drop of material which is transferred. Arc voltage variations which occur, which influence the size of the drop, are regulated with an arc length regulator (8) by means of forming a voltage difference between a calculated mean value of the arc voltage (Ua) during the pulse time and a set value of the arc voltage (Ur). On the basis of this voltage difference (Ua-Ur), the basic time and the basic current, which are to apply after this pulse, are calculated while the pulse time and the pulse current are kept constant.
