Title: Production system for vehicle wheels with steel rims
Inventor: POLLKOETTER GUENTER
IPC: B21H1/00
Filed: 1999-05-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for producing vehicle wheels having a rim consisting of a steel material. A tubular element having uniform wall thickness is used as work piece and clamped in a flow turning machine. At least one profiling roller is radially advanced by means of which the work piece is radially drawn in and a rim profile is formed. In order to reduce the mass of the rim, the work piece is clamped in a cylindrical rolling arbor before the rim profile is formed, the diameter of said arbor corresponding to the inner diameter of the tubular element. The wall thickness is reduced in a defined manner in given partial areas and the work piece is axially extended by the radial and axial advancement of the at least one flow turning roller, whereby areas having different wall thickness are produced. The profile of the rim is then formed.

Title: Agricultural spreader with spreader disk drive trains comprises separate drive trains giving fixed and variable speed ratios to suit manure type limits.
Inventor: RAUCH NORBERT
IPC: A01C17/00
Filed: 1999-06-25
Abstract: The drive train (8) of the first slinger disk (1) consists of a fixed ratio gear train as opposed to the drive train for the far disk (2) handling limit spreads which makes use of at least two gear stages to provide possibly infinitely variable drive speeds. This compares with a base line slinger in which both drives run at equal speed. The disk (2) drive can only gear down to the lower speed, changing to this as demanded by a change in manure type etc. This change of gear can be pre-set from a spreader table. Each disk and train has an allocated sensor to show speed indications in the drivers cab. The first disk drive train (8) serves as reference speed for normal spreads, and the speed of the other disk (2) is adjusted according to this reference speed.

Title: Optical recording carrier read-write device with digital controller, has reference input of analog-to-digital converter (ADC) used for connection to output of summation unit
Inventor: ZUCKER FRIEDHELM
IPC: G11B7/09
Filed: 1999-07-09
Abstract: An optical recording carrier scanning device has a digital controller (12) supplied with digitalized output signals from an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), the signals initially being derived from photodetectors (7). To provide speedy division of the digitalized output signals without the encumbrance of using software, circuit modifications include providing the ADC (10) with reference input (Ref) for connection to the output of the summing unit (17,17') carrying those signals which are used for forming the error signal (TE,FE).  The digitalized error signals (FE) for focus error and (TE) for track error, respectively, are generated from the output signals (A,B,C,D,E,F) of at least two of the photodetectors (7) by initially forming a summation signal (SUM,SUM') of the output signals which are used for forming the error signal. The output signals are then digitalized, with the associated summation signal (SUM,SUM') serving as a reference signal. The digitalized output signals are then logically linked/combined ( e.g. gating) to/with the error signal (FE,TE).
