Patent FR-2771329-A1 (FR)
Title: Mold for complex shapes
Inventor: PETZOLD THOMAS
IPC: B29C33/38
Filed: 1998-11-20
Abstract: To form a negative mold section, for molding complex structures, an auxiliary mold (20) has an inner flexible envelope (10) which is pressed against at least one molding surface (16). A filling material (14) is introduced into the molding chamber (40), at an opposite surface to the auxiliary mold (20), to be compressed and stabilized within the shape of the shrouding envelope, and extracted from the auxiliary mold (20). The filling material is fed in until it achieves the final shape. A force (F) is applied to a chamber surface against the molding envelope. The pressure applied has a variable force, using a fluid under pressure, which can be compressed, from a compressor. An underpressure within the chamber compacts the filling material, against the ambient pressure. An underpressure holds the envelope against the molding surfaces, which is maintained until the molding has the final shape. An Independent claim is included for an auxiliary mold, with a molding chamber (40) opposite the molding surface (16). A compression section (24) applies an elastic force (F) against the molding surface (16) of the auxiliary mold (20). Preferred Features: The compression unit (24) has an inner chamber (28) which can be charged with a fluid pressure through a connection which feeds and evacuates the pressure fluid. The fluid, which can be compressed, is provided by a compressor. The compression unit (24) has a variable shape, or has a limit to define the maximum shape. The envelope covers round the filling chamber, and the compression unit, in at least one peripheral direction. The envelope and the pressure unit are at a common support, across the envelope and pressure unit. The support has a channel for the feed and extraction of the pressure fluid, and also to deliver and extract filling material for the molding chamber.

Title: Clutch coupling with a driver component, a driven flywheel component and a contra rotated ramp disk mounting device for enabling engagement and disengagement
Inventor: KUNDERMANN WOLFGANG
IPC: F16H41/24
Filed: 1999-07-19
Abstract: A clutch has an axial driver flange (15,23) having an axial extension (17), directed towards an adjacent flywheel (31), and formed with a toothed profile (19) of which at least one tooth (20) can engage with a gap (52) in a corresponding toothed profile on a take-up ring (25) to provide an effective rotational coupling with the driven flywheel, which may form part of a fluid torque converter. The teeth (20) on the driver (23) and tooth-gaps (52) on the take-up ring (25) are formed with wedge shaped faces. The axial extension movement required for engagement of the corresponding toothed surfaces is provided by flexing of the flange (15,23) around the area of a bend (16). Two radial moveable claws (59) may be provided to replace a pair of diametrically opposed teeth on the driver flange in order to retain the fly wheel in position by engaging with depressions (63) in the take up ring (25,27) while the unit is under radial force. A mounting device (70) is provided on the  the axial driver flange (15,23) to depress the teeth (20) radially inwards while the take-up ring (25) slides on to the driver, without need for application of axial force; coupling completed, the mounting device is released and radial forces then bind the two clutch components together. The mounting device (70) may take the form of e.g. : (a) A screw tightened clamp (71) with a flexible band (72)  around the axial extension (17).  (b) A flexible pressure-tube (78) having a connection (79) which allows the ring (25,27) to be compressed, by pressure applied from a source (80), in order to enable coupling or alternatively to disengage the radial toothed connection; such a pressure tube (78) may be provided with a protective U-shaped cover (83).  (c) Other forms of mounting device, including a slidable compression ring (84) with a coned inner surface; and a circular spring collar device (87) with open ends which can be forced apart to release the compressive force. An Independent claim is included for a mounting device (70) having a pair of essentially identical annular disks (110;112) each formed with  a set of uni-directional ramp surfaces (126;134) on its inner edge, and which are rotatably positioned on the axial extension (17). Each disk has a ramp corresponding to each of the tongues (116) carrying teeth (19). The two disks are arranged in co-axial contact and with their ramp surfaces opposite handed, so that contra-rotation of the disks by an actuator simultaneously urges a ramp on each disk to slide onto, or off  each tongue. Engagement of the ramps with the tongues causes them to bend axially inwards, releasing the meshing force on the toothed coupling.
