20130298726 | LINK ELEMENT WITH OVERLOAD PROTECTION MEANS - A link element for coupling two assemblies with one another. The link has rod-shaped sections that are connected by an overload protection but are able to move axially relative to one another if subjected to an overload. The overload protection comprises a shear element which rigidly connects the link sections, in a form locking manner, and has a stop for limiting relative axial movement of the link sections, if subjected to an overload. The link element provides a defined deformation path, in the event of failure, and remains functional to a limited extent even once an overload occurs. The link element, when used on a chassis of a vehicle, signals to the driver damage or overload in the chassis, without further components or devices. | 11-14-2013 |

20110170646 | Nuclear Energy Converter - One or more beam channels through which laser beams are directed, via one or more lasers, onto material of a sample in a sample chamber, are placed in a sample body. The laser beams generate a plasma in the material of the sample and directly or indirectly trigger reactions in the atomic nucleus or the electron shell. These reactions lead to a nuclear fission or fusion or to the generation of gamma rays or neutrons. Furthermore, gamma rays or neutrons can be conveyed to the sample body or to the beam channels, in order to trigger the same reactions. Discs can prevent or delay thermal energy or plasma from escaping in the beam channels. A positive or negative voltage U can be applied to the sample body or to electrodes situated within it, in order to suck up or convey electrons and favour the desired reactions. The sample body may be wholly or partially transparent, in order to adjust the focal points of the laser beams onto the material of the sample. The laser beams may be conveyed to the beam channels via optical wave guides. | 07-14-2011 |

20100147670 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THERMALLY DISINTEGRATING A STARTING MATERIAL USING FOREIGN PARTICLES - The invention relates to a method and a device for the thermal decomposition of an initial material, in particular, for the decomposition of meat and bone meal, oil sludges, for example, from cleaning tankers, autofluff (also called autofluffy), basic glycerin, for example, from biodiesel production, paint sludges from paint shops, contaminated soils, coated wood, and plastics such as plexiglass. According to the present method, organic initial materials are thermally decomposed very completely in nearly all cases. The very complete decomposition is achieved by adding foreign particles such as metal spheres to the initial material which is being thermally decomposed. | 06-17-2010 |
20110122722 | FLOATING MIXER AND METHOD - The invention relates to a mixer for mixing mixing material at high temperatures of for example 300° C. to 600° C., as well as to a method for operating the mixer. It is an object of the invention to provide a mixer that can comprise a plurality of feeding members which are capable of following the movements of the mixer even at high temperatures. For achieving the object, the mixer comprises such installation means that an area of the mixing container is or can be fixed relative to the ground surface, said area can be provided on both sides with feeding members. Because a horizontal mixer can be fixed only at one front face in the case of a mixer according to the prior art, feeding members can only be connected with the mixing container from a side adjacent to the end wall. If, however, a horizontal mixer is configured such that one area, which is located between two front faces of a mixing container, is or can be fixed relative to the ground surface, then feeding members can be connected with the mixing container on both sides of this area. During operation, the mixer is heated to temperatures of at least 300° C. | 05-26-2011 |

20100236529 | FUEL INJECTION PUMP WITH AN IMPROVED DRIVE CLUTCH - The invention relates to a fuel injection pump for an internal combustion engine, which fuel injection pump, for the drive of the same, is connected in a torque-transmitting manner through a clutch unit to a drive input member. The clutch unit has a claw hub which is arranged on the drive input member and is axially fixed and is driven in rotation. The rotational movement can be transmitted to a reciprocating and rotating pump member. The claw hub and the pump member have respective claws which are aligned counter to one another and which have lateral claw faces between which is arranged a star-shaped and/or tongue-groove-like transmission body which, for the transmission of the torque, adjoins the respective claw faces. The claw faces are formed with an outwardly arched, spherical surface in order to create at least one defined zone of force introduction from the transmission body into the claw face, such that the stresses which occur in the claw as a result of the force transmission can be reduced. In this way, a fuel injection pump for an internal combustion engine with a clutch unit is created which permits a long service life while at the same time permitting the transmission of large torques, and at the same time has a simple structural design. | 09-23-2010 |
