Abstract: A rotating mass (3) drives an annular permanent magnet (18), transversely magnetised, which interacts with pole pieces (14c and 15c) of the armature (14 and 15) of the rotor (2) of a micro-generator, comprising, in addition, an annular magnet (12). This rotor interacts with a stator (1) comprising a winding (5) and armature pieces (6 and 7). When the magnetic force present between the drive magnet (18) and the rotor (2) overcomes the magnetic force present between the rotor (2) and the stator (1), the rotor "unlocks" suddenly and places itself in the position in which the diameter on which the two pole pieces (14c and 15c) are situated is parallel to the magnetic field of the magnet (18). In the course of this sudden movement of the rotor, an electrical current is produced. The mass (3) can turn in any direction and by any number of turns, in order to produce the current, the link between the magnet (18) and the rotor (2) comprising no limitation of the angular offsets of these two elements. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a single-flow steam turbine, the inlet casing is designed to comprise two intertwined spiral casings (1, 2). These spirals have concentrically arranged annular openings (1',2') which face the inlet to the blading and extend over 360 DEG  of the circumference. The spirals can be shut off and/or throttled, allowing infinitely variable partial admission to the reaction admission (sic) (13, 14, 15). The spirals (2) dimensioned for the smaller flow and their annular opening (2') is arranged on the rotor side in the radial direction. The first row of blading supplied from the annular openings (1', 2') is an after the (sic) action control wheel (13). The radially inner boundary wall of the spiral dimensioned for the small flow is arranged in the plane of the balance piston.

Date Apr. 2, 1992A fiber-reinforced composite material and articles of manufacture formed thereof are formed by the method comprising: forming a compound material comprising a mixture of curable matrix-forming binder, heat resistant reinforcing fibers, and at least one particulate material, wherein the curable matrix-forming binder is 5 to 50% by volume of the compound material; curing the curable binder under simultaneous application of externally applied pressure and ultrasonic energy. Articles according to the invention are useful in a multitude of applications, particularly in applications where the article must retain its shape and properties when subjected to temperatures above the melting point of usual thermoplastic materials, e.g. above 1000 DEG  C. The method provides dense, thermally stable, coherent composite materials having a desired high density. Forming and curing times are typically 10 times shorter than conventional methods, e.g. for brake pads in about 3-5 seconds.

Abstract: A measuring probe (2) to detect the presence of electrically conducting granular material comprising metal electrode (4) comprising tube (5) adhered to porous, ceramic insulator (12) adhered to skirt (10) of metal electrode (6). Electrode (4) is connected to gas supply (58) supplying gas, for example nitrogen, under pressure which emerges into space (26) in the probe and then passes through insulator (12) to emerge from face (20) thereof. Heat resistant cable (46) has its conductor (52) brazed to cap portion (8) of electrode (6). Cable (46) and electrode (4) are connected into electrical circuit (66) in which current flows when a conducting bridge of granular material simultaneously contacts electrodes (4 and 6) of skirt (10). Should the level of the granular material drop below electrode (6), gas emerging from face (20) blows away any granular material trying to preserve the conducting bridge, and circuit (66) is interrupted.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transmission, in particular a transmission for agricultural or commercial vehicles, having at least two shafts (12, 60a, 60b) arranged parallel and adjacent to one another. In order to be able to use comparatively small shaft diameters, at least one of the shafts consists of two mutually aligned, axially spaced part-shafts (60a, 60b) which are connected positively to one another by a torsion shaft (71). The torsion shaft (71) is thus arranged without an offset of the axes between the two part-shafts (60a, 60b). 
<??>A particularly preferred area of application of a transmission of this kind is in a hydrostatic-mechanical split-torque transmission with a continuously variable transmission ratio for motor vehicles, in particular for agricultural or commercial vehicles. The transmission consists of a hydrostatic transmission continuously adjustable between two extreme positions and having one displacement machine (18) of variable volume and one displacement machine (24) of constant volume, and of a summing mechanism which contains at least two planetary gear trains (28, 32). Using a plurality of gear-changing clutches (68, 70), it is possible to set gearwheel shift stages (I, II, III, VI) by a procedure in which the output shafts (44, 52) of the planetary gear trains (28, 32) are connected via gear wheels with different transmission ratios to a transmission output shaft (60a, 60b). In order to permit a compact construction of the transmission, not only is a torsion shaft (71) used, but different individual setting ratios are provided for at least two shift stages.

Abstract: A thermal test track (- 3) is provided outside the user-accessible area on the disc. A track complete of a known frequency is then written on either side of this thermal test track, preferably half the usual track separate distance away. To develop a thermal compensation constant, the transducer (10) is moved to the thermal test track with no compensation applied. This way, any thermally induced off-track error, which would affect seeks to user-accessible data tracks, will be reflected in the off-track from the nominal position of the thermal test track. The transducer is now moved in a series of defined increments (e.g. 5) smaller than normal track-to-track steps, or "micro-steps", away from the uncompensated position of the thermal track toward one of the tracks written with the known frequency. When the data on the written track to the side of the thermal test track is detected, a note is made of the number of micro-steps the transducer has been moved. The transducer (10) is then micro-stepped incrementally in the opposite direction until the data written on the other side of the thermal test track is detected. A simple comparison of these two micro-step counts will yield the existing thermal shift, which can be converted into a thermal compensation constant for the transducer positioning mechanism by means of a simple look-up table.
