A vibration exciter has at least two axles disposed parallel to one another, as well as at least two imbalance masses, which are attached to one or more of the axles. The relative rotary position of the imbalance masses can be adjusted relative to one another by a rotary oscillating motor having a rotor shaft and a stator housing. The rotor shaft is an integral part of one of the axles, and the rotary position of the stator housing relative to the rotor shaft can be changed. The stator housing can be locked to the rotor shaft. The oscillating motor has a rotor shaft and a stator housing, between which working chambers are formed. The stator housing can rotate about the rotor shaft and can be locked relative to the rotor shaft.

The vibratory plate also includes a water tank (4) and the sprinkler device (3) has an outlet (8) for passing the water, a valve (11) to control the release of water and a knob (5) for the operation of the valve. A channel (6) guides the released water and is arranged along the front edge of the base plate (2). The channel (6) is arranged with descending inclinations along and from the middle of its length and to both side edges of the base plate (2). The outlet (8) is only arranged for the release of water to the middle of the channel (6).

A method for operating a waste heat steam generator including an evaporator, an economizer having a number of economizer heating surfaces, and a bypass line connected on the flow medium side in parallel with a number of economizer heating surfaces is provided. The method makes possible higher operational safety and reliability in the control of the waste heat steam generator. For this purpose, a parameter that is characteristic of the thermal energy fed to the waste heat steam generator is used to control or regulate the flow rate of the by-pass line.

The invention pertains to a stationary vehicle air conditioning system with a refrigerant circuit, in which a compressor circulates refrigerant through a refrigerant circuit including at least one condenser. The one compressor may be powered by the vehicle's mechanical power, by an electrical source, or by a combination of these driving forces. Depending on desired operating characteristics, a plurality of condensers may be arranged in a series or parallel configuration within the circuit, and a second compressor also may be added, which second compressor may be powered by a source other than the mechanical energy of the vehicle's engine. A plurality of fans may be positioned and selectively operable to provide cooling air streams to one or more of the condensers, with the vehicle engine mechanically driving one fan and an electrical power source driving another fan. At minimum, at least one fan is provided to provide a cooling air stream to one or more condensers, wherein the fan is a hybrid drive unit that is capable of being driven through mechanical or electrical means.

A method of controlling a screwing spindle comprising a fluid-fed motor and having a drive member connected to a spindle shaft to rotate it, the method comprising the step of feeding the screwing spindle under nominal conditions of pressure and flow rate that generate a required tightening torque, and a prior step during which the screwing spindle is fed under conditions that are weaker than the nominal conditions by a ratio that is sufficient to ensure that the spindle shaft has a speed of rotation that generates kinetic energy producing a torque that is less than the required tightening torque.

A method device for controlling a suction pressure of an internal combustion engine, particularly a diesel engine having an exhaust gas turbocharger. The compressor is connected to a suction line of the internal combustion engine via an actuating section having an actuating element for changing a cross-section of the actuating section. In the first step, the current suction pressure in the suction line of the internal combustion engine is determined. A compressor pressure of the compressor is determined by pressure sensors and compared to the suction pressure. Values corresponding to current operating data of the internal combustion engine are identified and an actuation signal is generated using a controller, based on the comparison; and changing the cross-section of the actuating section is adjusted by adjusting the actuating element using the actuating signals.

In a method and arrangement for generation of an imprint with a printing device operating according to a dot matrix principle (in particular an inkjet principle), a dot pattern is provided for the imprint, with which the printing device image points corresponding to the provided dot pattern on a substrate. For at least one first image point a probability with which the image point is generated is provided. Whether this image point is actually generated on the substrate is determined in a decision step using a random generator and the probability. The image point is generated (or not) in a subsequent step dependent on the result of the decision step.

The invention relates to a method for treating the ends of glass rods in which glass rods are inserted into receptacles in a carrier and with the carrier are carried past a burner and at least one rail in an advancing direction, the flame of the burner melting at least one end of the glass rods and the glass rods being lifted by the rail in the receptacles and rolling on the rail so that the glass rods are made to rotate during the melting process.

The invention relates to a method for regulating a welding current source with a current transformer, which has a series resonant circuit on the primary side and a parallel resonant circuit on the secondary side, the series resonant circuit being supplied with a variable alternating voltage by a bridge circuit and the parallel resonant circuit providing energy to a welding process by way of a rectifier, and a control unit controlling the bridge circuit in dependence on at least one state variable of the welding current source. In order to develop the method in such a way as to make regulation possible at low cost and with as little power loss as possible, it is proposed according to the invention that only the primary current or a state variable on the primary side corresponding to the primary current is recorded as the electrical-current state variable of the welding current source and a control signal dependent on the primary current or on the state variable corresponding thereto is fed to the control unit. A welding current source for carrying out the method is also proposed.

The present invention relates to a force measuring instrument, having a carrier plate (3), at least one magnet (5), and at least one magnetically sensitive element (6). A tongue element (4) protrudes at least partly from the carrier plate (3) and is joined to a plate element (2). Between the tongue element (4) and the carrier plate (3), an air gap (7) is formed, in which the magnetically sensitive element (6) is positioned. The force to be measured, delivered via the plate element (2), leads to a relative motion between the end, toward the air gap, of the tongue element (4) and the carrier plate (3). This causes a change in the magnetic field geometry in the air gap (7). The present invention also relates to a method for detecting a force.
