20080237914 | Methods for making fiber reinforced polypropylene composites using pre-cut fiber - The present disclosure is directed generally to methods for making fiber reinforced polypropylene composite pellets using pre-cut fiber fed to a compounding extruder by improved fiber feeder systems. One form of the method includes feeding into a compounding extruder at least 25 wt % polypropylene based polymer, from 5 to 60 wt % pre-cut organic fiber, and from 0 to 60 wt % inorganic filler; and extruding, cooling and pelletizing the resultant mixture of components to form fiber reinforced polypropylene composite pellets; wherein the pre-cut organic fiber is fed from a feeder including a feeder hopper, one or more conditioning augers/agitators, one or more metering augers below the feeder hopper, and a means for controlling the speed of the conditioning augers/agitators and metering augers; and wherein an article molded from the pellets has a flexural modulus of at least 2.07 GPa and exhibits ductility during instrumented impact testing. In another form, the feeder includes a feeder hopper, two or more counter-rotating metering rollers, one or more separating rollers below the metering rollers, and a means for controlling the speed of the metering rollers and separating rollers. In yet another form, a circle feeder may be used to feed the pre-cut fiber. | 10-02-2008 |

20130320687 | HANDLING MODULE FOR HANDLING MOTOR VEHICLE WHEELS - A handling module for handling vehicle wheels in an installation for the surface treatment thereof and having at least two gripping units which are supported by a frame structure and each of which comprises a plurality of press-on elements which are pressable onto one or more counter surfaces of an individual vehicle wheel. At least one of the gripping units includes a translation device by which the press-on elements are movable in relation to the frame structure with a movement component which is parallel to the axis of rotation of a gripped vehicle wheel. | 12-05-2013 |
20140061002 | SPINDLE CONVEYOR, AND WORKPIECE TREATMENT STATION COMPRISING THE SAME - A spindle conveyor for conveying workpieces, in particular vehicle wheels, having a rail system that includes at least one support rail. Multiple conveyor carriages have a chassis that can be moved on the support rail in a conveying direction and a supporting device for workpieces which is entrained by the chassis. Each workpiece can be mounted on a workpiece spindle which is part of the supporting device which has a pair of workpiece spindles mounted so as to be rotatable as a unit relative to the chassis about a vertical axis of rotation and can be moved at least into a first rotational position and a second rotational position. Also a station for treating workpieces, in particular vehicle wheels, with such a spindle conveyor which allows the workpieces to be conveyed through the station. | 03-06-2014 |
20140064903 | DEVICE FOR TRANSFERRING VEHICLE WHEELS - In a device for transferring vehicle wheels, an individual vehicle wheel can be gripped by a gripping module having at least one gripping unit which is supported by a frame structure and includes multiple pressing elements that can be pressed against one or more mating surfaces of an individual vehicle wheel. A first gripping module and a second gripping module are mounted on a common rigid support structure which can be rotated about a main axis of rotation by a rotating mechanism. Furthermore, the pressing elements move with a movement component running parallel to the main axis of rotation. | 03-06-2014 |

20100268568 | WORKFLOW MODEL FOR COORDINATING THE RECOVERY OF IT OUTAGES BASED ON INTEGRATED RECOVERY PLANS - One aspect of the present invention provides a workflow model to effectively respond to outage events within an IT infrastructure. This workflow model enables a combination of manual and automated processing to effectively deploy a flexible, plannable, and testable recovery to outages and problems encountered within IT infrastructure settings. In one embodiment, a shared processing context is created to accompany the operations of the workflow, thereby collecting useful data in one location related to events and status information during the outage and the outage response. Within the workflow, analysis of the outage event is performed, an appropriate recovery plan is selected, the selected recovery plan is implemented, and recovery to the outage event is completed. Data collected within the processing context can be analyzed to obtain post mortem analysis and continuous service improvements. Accordingly, the improvements can be implemented within the IT infrastructure directly or within the appropriate recovery plan. | 10-21-2010 |
