Abstract:
An orthopedic implant (3) has permanent attachment to bones in the bodies of vertebrates and/or humans. In particular, the orthopedic implant comprises an elongate, substantially cylindrical base body (15), which can be inserted into patients using minimally invasive treatment together with little trauma to the surrounding tissue. The implant may comprise an external fixing thread (11) for screwing into the bone to sustainably improve treatment outcomes and recovery time.
Abstract:
A shut-off valve for controllable fluid flow may include a closing member that substantially has the structure of a hollow, round pipe, and which closing member may be pushed axially along the axis of the closing member within the valve body in order to shut off the flow of medium. The closing member may be pressed on an end face against a seat in order to shut off the flow of medium. The closing member may be directly operated with an electromagnetic lift drive.
Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to develop a hot rolling unit, comprising at least one continuous casting unit (1) with a post-arranged furnace (4), followed by a roughing stand (5) and, over a strip edge guide, a soaking furnace (15) and finishing train, such that downtime is reduced to a minimum level and even during said downtime, as well as in planned cases of withdrawal of pre-strip material, the pre-strip (14), behind the roughing stand in the soaking furnace, can be separated off from the normal rolling cycle. Said aim is achieved, whereby the strip edge guide has a length of at least 4 m, the soaking furnace has, or is preceded by, at least one device for recognition of the strip edge position, the soaking furnace has a pivoting cover segment (30-32), a discharge device (29) may be displaced at least alongside the soaking furnace, running in the longitudinal direction thereof and the devices for determining the strip edge position have analytical units (14) and an emergency breaker device and/or a device for releasing emergency cutters.

Abstract:
A foaming composition comprising a melt processible fluoropolymer, and a chemical foaming agent, where the chemical foaming agent is ammonium polyphosphate.
Abstract:
A casing has casing parts and fastening elements, wherein the casing parts are connected to one another by the fastening elements. The fastening elements are located inside the casing so that the exterior of the casing is free of projections and recesses. A first one of the casing parts has through openings into which the fastening elements are inserted, and a second one of the casing parts has threaded bores for receiving the fastening elements.
Abstract:
An insulation material based on polymeric plastic is specified, to which glass particles that consist of types of glass with different softening points are added for stabilization in case of fire. To provide protection in a very broad temperature range, at least three types of glass with different softening points are used as the glass particles, namely, a first type of glass with a softening point below about 470° C., a second type of glass with a softening point above about 470° C. and below about 620° C., and a third type of glass with a softening point above about 760° C.
