20080286069 | Screwed Connection - A screwed connection has a threaded bolt; a nut; a washer arranged between the nut and a surface of a component to be clamped; a screwing device with a housing, a holding tool connected to the housing, and a tightening tool that engages positively the nut; a measuring element arranged in the washer for measuring a compressive force generated by tightening the screwed connection. The washer has an anti-rotation device oriented toward the surface of the component. The outer periphery of the washer is positive-lockingly engaged by the holding tool. The washer has no positive or frictional connection to the threaded bolt, and the holding tool has no torque supporting action on the threaded bolt or on any other part so that a reaction moment, generated when tightening the nut, is introduced from the housing of the screwing device through the washer into the component to be clamped. | 11-20-2008 |
20090162166 | Segmented Nut for Screw Connections - A nut for a screw connections has, in the circumferential direction, segments that are substantially of the same size, abut one another in separating planes, and are movably guided relative to one another between an open position and a closed position. Closing elements serve for movement of the segments toward one another into the closed position. In order to provide a segmented nut that is suitable for many applications in facility and apparatus engineering, the segments are pivotable relative to one another and connected for this purpose in a first end area in a pivotable way. The closing elements load the segments in the second end areas. | 06-25-2009 |
20090260485 | Method and Device for Controlling a Hydraulically Operated Power Wrench - In a method for controlling a hydraulic power wrench with a pivotable lever pivoted by a piston-cylinder unit and a ratchet arrangement for stepwise rotation of a ratchet bushing by advancing and return strokes, parameters such as nominal torque or pre-load or screw parameters are entered into an electronic input unit. Nominal pressure corresponding to the parameters is determined by an electronic evaluation unit and generated by the pump. The piston-cylinder unit is pressure-loaded for performing a pre-stroke until the nominal pressure is reached followed immediately by a return stroke. A time interval from beginning of pressure loading until reaching nominal pressure or until reaching an initial pressure after pressure relief is measured. Pressure loading and measuring are repeated. The measured time intervals are compared. Pressure loading cycles are stopped when at least the last measured time interval is shorter than at least the penultimate measured time interval. | 10-22-2009 |

20110048176 | Hydraulic Bolt Tensioning Device and Method for Tightening Large Bolts by Means of a Hydraulic Bolt Tensioning Device - A hydraulic bolt tensioning device has a cylinder supported on a machine part that is to be clamped by threaded bolt and nut. An exchangeable bushing has a first end screwed onto a free threaded end of the threaded bolt that projects past the nut. A tensioning piston is seal-tightly guided in the cylinder and supported on a second end of the exchangeable bushing. A pressure medium is supplied into an annular space between cylinder and piston. A control device is provided for setting a nominal pressure of the pressure medium corresponding to a nominal pretension of the threaded bolt. A yield limit detection device detects whether a yield limit of the threaded bolt is reached during tensioning. A controller acts on a pressure relief device for pressure relief of the bolt tensioning device when reaching, or shortly after reaching, the yield limit of the threaded bolt. | 03-03-2011 |
