Abstract:
A device lubricates a transmission (1) and a bearing (1′), in particular a rotor bearing in a wind turbine. The transmission (1) and the bearing (1′) are each associated with at least one lubrication circuit (3, 5). A lubricating medium flows in each circuit during the operation of the device. A heat exchanging device (7, 59, 61) transfers heat between the lubrication circuit (3) of the transmission (1) and the lubrication circuit (5) of the bearing (1′). The heat exchanging device (7, 59, 61) at least partially compensates for a difference between the temperature of the lubricating medium in the lubrication circuit (3) of the transmission (1) and the temperature of the lubricating medium in the lubrication circuit (5) of the bearing (1′) by heat compensation during the operation of the device.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a spectrometer comprising a hollow main optical body having at least one light channel, a light source, a diffraction grating having a grating central point, a light inlet opening, and a detector unit, which are arranged in such a way that the focal curve of the spectrometer satisfies the back focus equation. In order to create a spectrometer having sufficient spectral resolution from a low-price, light, and easy-to-process material, which spectrometer is able to operate in a large temperature interval even without thermostatic control, according to the invention the light inlet opening is arranged on a compensation body, the compensation body is arranged in the light channel and fastened to the main optical body between the light source and the diffraction grating, and the compensation body is dimensioned in such a way that the compensation body changes the distance between the light inlet opening and the grating central point when the main optical body thermally expands.
Abstract:
A filter element includes a filter material (10) having individual filter folds (12) folded in a star-like manner. At least one fluid-permeable support element (26) extends at least partially in the space between two adjacent filter folds (12) and/or on the inner peripheral side and/or external peripheral side of the filter folds (12). The support element (26) is provided with filter-active substances or is made of filter-active substances. A certain type of filter auxiliary agent can be obtained which is used to reduce influences of fluid components which reduce the service life, in the form of specific ageing products or in the form of other agents which damage the fluid.
Abstract:
In an apparatus for determining the filterability of fluids, in particular of transmission oils, having a test filter device (21), through which a sample amount of the fluid can flow, and a line system which forms a circulation circuit (1) for the fluid, said line system comprises a foam tester (3) which receives the sample amount of the fluid, the filter device (21) and a circulating pump (23) which removes fluid from the sample amount which is situated in the foam tester (3) and conveys it through the filter device (21) and back to the foam tester (3).
Abstract:
A sputtering target includes an outer target tube, an inner support tube of rectangular cross-sectional shape supporting a magnet carrier extending along substantially the entire length of the inner support tube; and a water cooling circuit including at least one passageway within said inner support tube with an inlet at one end thereof adapted to receive cooling water from an external source, at least one outlet aperture at an opposite end thereof opening to a chamber radially between the inner support tube and the outer target tube; and at least one cooling water outlet at the one end of the inner support tube.
Abstract:
A shock absorber includes a housing, a piston slidable in the housing, a piston rod extending outwardly from the piston, a cup-shaped stop cap secured to the free end of the piston rod, and an adjusting ring which protrudes from the end of the housing and can be rotated to adjust the damping coefficient by adjusting the open cross-section of throttle openings through which a hydraulic fluid is displaced by the piston. When a load pushes against the stop cap, the maximum travel is limited by the stop cap bearing directly against a rigid end ring of the housing. The load forces are introduced directly from the stop cap into the housing, without applying any loads onto the adjusting ring or other components. The adjusting ring and a return spring coaxially on the piston rod are accommodated within the stop cap in the fully retracted position.
