Abstract:
A process for closing a tap hole in a metallurgical vessel at least partially filled with a metal melt includes bringing a compressible fire-resistant material to the moth of a tubular closing element, providing a medium that substantially prevents contact between the fire resistant material and the metal melt, passing the closing element through the melt toward the bottom of the vessel, compressing the compressible material against the bottom of the vessel to form a seal between the outside of the closing element and the tap hole below the closing element, and moving a cut off device over the outside of the tap hole, thereby allowing the tap hole to be filled with a pourable refractory compound via the tubular closing element. A device for performing the process for closing a tap hole includes a tubular closing device with a groove at an end bottom facing the bottom of the metallurgical vessel. The open end of the groove also faces the bottom of the vessel and a closed end of the groove includes a compressible material. The sides of the groove are deflectable such that when the closing device is lowered onto the bottom of the vessel, the compressible material contacts the bottom of the vessel forming a seal.
Abstract:
An intermediate gear device for a traction drive and/or spur gear drive of an internal combustion engine is provided, having an intermediate gear that has an at least two-track construction with a drive gear and a driven gear, an axle, and a needle bearing by which the intermediate gear is radially mounted on the axle. At least one supporting disk is provided on which the intermediate gear is axially supported, and a duct, that is connectable to the lubricant circuit of the internal combustion engine, to supply lubricant to the needle bearing. The support disk and the axle contact one another at the end faces, the mouth of the lubricant duct that opens toward the needle bearing is formed by one or more recesses on the contact surface of the support disk and/or on the contact surface of the axle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a production machine with a hydraulic and/or electric drive and also measured data acquisition for at least one positional determination and at least two measured variables dependent on the latter in the production machine. If a further setpoint profile is exceeded, a setpoint input is corrected directly in the form of a substitutional open-loop or closed-loop control.

Each of the plurality of metal strips combined to form a core unit has a width b substantially less than the radius r of the cross section of the core formed by the strips. The direction of the edges of the strips in the cross section is random.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a mold for producing transparent optical elements from polymeric materials. In this case, the optical elements that can be produced in this way are intended to have at least surface regions which have reduced interfacial reflection. According to the invention, the procedure followed here is that, in the case of a reference element which consists of a polymeric material and corresponds to the respective optical element, the entire surface or a correspondingly selected surface is exposed to the influence of high-energy ions in a vacuum. In this way, an irregular nanostructure with alternately arranged elevations and depressions lying in between is formed on the corresponding surfaces. Subsequently, a thin electrically conducting layer is applied and electrochemical forming is carried out in order to obtain a mold with a negative contour which is superposed by the nanostructure. With such a mold, the optical elements can then be produced in a molding process of the nanostructure reducing the interfacial reflection.

Abstract:
There is described a method for operating an injection molding machine, which comprises a forming tool, an injecting device and a digital regulating and/or control device at least for regulating and/or controlling the injecting device. When regulating and/or controlling the injecting device, a pressure regulation and/or pressure control for regulating and/or controlling the injection device is switched over subject to the reaching of a transition criterion, whereby a value is established that is used for determining the transition criterion. At least one extrapolation value is established for at least one measured value, whereupon the extrapolation value is compared with the transition criterion and the pressure regulation and/or control of the injection molding machine or is switched over to the pressure regulation and/or the pressure control.
Abstract:
A metallurgical vessel (10) includes at least one metallic electrode (20) fastened thereto having a chamber within the vessel (10) for holding a melt (19) and having a bottom surface, a shell (14) abutting the bottom surface, and a flanged tube (31) arranged on the shell (14) with the flanged tube (31) having a flanged surface (32). The electrode (20) is disposed coaxially with respect to the flanged tube (31) and is formed by first and second bars (21, 22) connectable to one another. The first bar (21) has the top face positioned proximate to the bottom surface of the chamber and penetrates the vessel (10) for contact with the melt. The second bar (22) is positioned against the bottom face of the first bar (21) and extends out from the vessel (10), the first bar having a should region (23) positioned annularly thereabout adapted to contact and lean against the flanged surface (32) of the flanged tube (31). A coolant provision and discharge device provide coolant to the second bar (22) through a coolant feed line (51) and a discharge line (53) and a current feed device provides current to the electrode. A hold-down mechanism (33) attaches the current feed device, the coolant feed line (51) and the discharge line (53) to the flanged tube (31).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an industrial data transmission system for the registering of process parameters in a periodic bus cycle with a fixed time frame, a synchronizing signal within each cycle having the effect in each case that a multiplicity of process parameters are simultaneously registered and recorded and, in a subsequent data exchange phase, are transmitted to the open-loop and/or closed-loop process control system. In this system, all the time-critical process input and output parameters are registered simultaneously. In a subsequent open-loop and/or closed-loop process control phase, a processing of the high-priority process data takes place. These data are used in particular for plastics injection-molding machines for detecting the changeover point. Furthermore, use is made of a machine production cycle with bus subeycles, which may respectively have a synchronizing signal and different information contents and/or lengths.
