Abstract: A molded resin laminate in which the dimensional accuracy and the strength are excellent at a bent portion and a method for producing the same are provided. One, in which an average diameter of small cells existing in a region on a side of a resin cover to be formed into a surface layer is smaller than an average diameter of large cells existing in a region on a side of a base resin component to be formed into a base layer, is used as a foamed resin component to be formed into an intermediate layer of the molded resin laminate. After the base resin component is molded with a molding machine, the base resin component is held on a male mold of a forming machine different from the molding machine described above. A sheet-shaped laminate, which is obtained by joining the foamed resin component and the resin cover, is arranged between the base resin component and a female mold.      Subsequently, the forming machine is subjected to mold clamping. The sheet-shaped laminate and the base resin component are joined to one another in a cavity, and the gas in the cavity is vacuum-evacuated to thereby form the sheet-shaped laminate.

Abstract: A rotary diverter valve assembly having a low voltage low current drive motor driving the rotating valve shaft through a differential planetary gear train.  The motor drives the sun gear which engages a first pitch diameter set of teeth on the carrier mounted orbiting planetary gears, the first set of planetary gear teeth also is engaged by a fixed outer ring gear. A second lesser pitch diameter set of coaxial teeth are provided on the planetary gears which engage an output ring gear attached to the rotary valve shaft. A torsion spring has one end attached to the planetary carrier and is wound up by the relative rotation of the carrier with respect to the sun gear during motor operation. In the event of motor failure during operation, the stored energy of the wound spring applies a torque to back rotate the earner and effect rotation of the valve member to its initial position.

Title: Azimuthal driving system for wind turbines
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: F03D7/04
Filed: 1999-10-12
Abstract: Wind power installations generally have an active drive for wind direction tracking. The active drive rotates the machine housing of the wind power installation in such a way that the rotor blades of the rotor are oriented in the direction of the wind. That drive which is required for wind direction tracking purposes is generally an azimuthal drive which is usually disposed with the associated azimuthal mountings between the tower top and the machine housing. One displacement drive is sufficient when small wind power installations are involved, while larger wind power installations are generally equipped with a plurality of azimuthal drives.        The object of the invention is to improve the azimuthal drive for wind power installations so that the above-indicated problems are eliminated, providing a structurally simple azimuthal drive, ensuring uniform load distribution for each azimuthal drive, and preventing unwanted torque fluctuations in the individual drives.        A wind power installation comprising a machine housing which accommodates a rotor with at least one rotor blade and a displacement device for displacement of the machine housing for desired orientation of the rotor in the direction of the wind, wherein the displacement device has as its drive a three-phase asynchronous motor which for displacement of the machine housing is acted upon by a three-phase current and is at times or completely acted upon with direct current during the stoppage time of the machine housing.
