Abstract

The invention relates to a self-closing channel (20) for receiving an elongated solid element (22) in order to protect the elongated solid element from foreign elements entering into the channel (20). The channel comprises a base element (24) and a closure flap (26). The base element forms a contact surface for the elongated solid element (22). The closure flap is mechanically connected to the base element (24) in such a way that, as as the result of a relative movement of the base element (24) relative to a bottom point (30) of the closure flap, a top point (32) of the closure flap (26) opposite the bottom point (30) carries out a closure movement. The closure flap (26) is designed to close the self-closing channel (20) after the closure movement, in such a way that the self-closing channel (20) entirely surrounds the elongated solid element (22) or surrounds at least most of the elongated solid element (22), and a transition edge (34) between the self-closing channel (20) and the elongated solid element (22) lies tightly against the elongated solid element (22).

Abstract

A vibration damper includes an end-stop control valve that progressively adds end-of-stroke damping force to complement the damping force provided by a main piston. The end-stop control valve may include a valve piston assembly that has a valve piston insert, a piston that is disposed radially outside the valve piston insert, and a valve disc stack-up that is supported on a hub of the valve piston insert and a valve seat of the piston. The valve piston insert and the piston may be arranged so as to be longitudinally movable relative to one another. Consequently, the preload of the valve disc stack-up increases as the valve piston assembly contacts a catch piston and begins end-of-stroke damping. Transitioning from an initial preload to a maximum preload during the end-of-stroke damping event progressively increases damping resistance and thereby improves NVH characteristics.

Abstract

An end-stop control valve can progressively add end-of-stroke damping resistance to complement the damping force provided by a main piston in a damper tube. The end-stop control valve may include a piston that selectively engages with a catch piston, both of which are longitudinally movable within the damper tube. To reduce bypass around the piston, a piston band wrapped at least partially around the piston may engage with a sidewall of the catch piston just prior to engagement of the catch piston and the piston, although at least some hydraulic fluid can flow through a pathway of the piston band. A spring disc that moves with the piston may also engage with the catch piston just prior to engagement between the catch piston and the piston. The spring disc may elastically deform to contribute end-of-stroke resistance leading up to engagement of the piston and the catch piston.

Abstract

An end-stop control valve can progressively add end-of-stroke damping resistance to complement the damping force provided by a main piston in a damper tube. The end-stop control valve may include a piston that is secured on a piston rod and selectively engages a catch piston, both of which are longitudinally movable within the damper tube. As the piston approaches the catch piston, an annular pocket of hydraulic fluid is created longitudinally and radially between the piston and the catch piston. As the piston continues to approach the catch piston, a cross-sectional area through which hydraulic fluid exits the pocket decreases, thereby gradually increasing the resistance of the end-stop control valve. In addition, a spring disc secured on the piston rod may contact a valve seat on the catch piston and provide resistance by elastically deforming in a longitudinal direction before the contact surfaces of the piston and catch piston engage.

Abstract

A sliding cam system for an internal combustion engine includes an adjusting element that has at least three coupling pins. A first coupling pin is arranged in the region of the primary sliding cam element and a second coupling pin is arranged in the region of the first secondary sliding cam element and a third coupling pin is arranged in the region of the second secondary sliding cam element. The coupling pins each cooperate with a shifting gate of the respectively associated sliding cam element such that a movement of a primary sliding cam element initiated by the actuator pin is transmissible to secondary sliding cam elements by the adjusting element. The sliding cam system is designed such that a shifting operation of the first secondary sliding cam element takes place at least partially at the same time as the shifting operation of the second secondary sliding cam element.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a process for feeding firing units of a steam reformer with a second fuel gas and a first flue gas, wherein the first flue gas is generated in an external combustion chamber arranged outside the steam reformer and upstream of the steam reformer by combustion of a first fuel gas with air and, together with the second fuel gas, introduced into the firing units of the steam reformer for firing, wherein the first flue gas has a residual oxygen content sufficient for the firing. The disclosure also relates to a steam reforming plant for performing such a process.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING PIG IRON IN A SHAFT FURNACE

      
Application Number 18030553
Status Pending

  • Schubert, Daniel

Abstract

A method of producing pig iron in a shaft furnace is provided. The shaft furnace is charged in an upper region with raw materials which fall within the shaft furnace under the influence of gravity. A portion of the raw materials is melted and/or partly reduced under the action of the atmosphere that exists within the shaft furnace. A hot gas stream which is introduced in a lower region of the shaft furnace flows through and influences the atmosphere that exists within the shaft furnace in terms of chemical composition and temperature. A cold gas stream is fed to a heat exchanger in which the cold gas stream is heated to a temperature higher than 700° C. to give a hot gas stream. The cold gas stream comprises a CO2 component of at least 5% by volume. The cold gas stream may contain, air and/or pure oxygen as residual component.
