Abstract: The invention relates to a method for welding building components (15). In order to form several successive pointed or linear welded joints (A, B, C, N) between successive building components (15) which are found unchanged in the same determined position, bundled radiation is emitted from a laser (7). Said bundled radiation is subsequently pivoted by an angle of between +/- 2 DEG and +/- 5 DEG . The invention is characterised by a pivotable welding head (2), which is joined to a fixed connecting element (3) via a plug-in connector (10). The fixed connecting element comprises a driving mechanism (11) to which the welding head (2) is mechanically connected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a welding platform which comprises an arm (3) that is movably supported by a support element (2). Said arm (3) is linked with a drive device (15) via at least one lever system (10) and can be moved towards the support element (2) and away from the support element for opening and closing the platform (1). The components to be linked (40) are firmly pressed against one another during welding between a tension arm (17) and a tension element (16).

Abstract: Method for determination of the mass flow rate of a fluid medium (100) through a measurement pipe (2) that is contained and supported by a support pipe (3, 4) that is used to excite vibrations in the measurement pipe so that Coriolis mass flow measurements can be made. To prevent asymmetries or anisotropies in the measurement flow medium the measurement arrangement is tensioned to match the properties of the fluid medium either prior to, or during measurements. An Independent claim is made for a Coriolis type mass flow measurement device wherein the support pipe for the measurement pipe is in contact with a tensioning and adjustment device (7) with which a defined tensile force can be applied to balance out asymmetries or anisotropies.

Abstract: An electrical actuator drive (1) is installed on the sea bed (99) near the valve (100). Its electrical supply, operation and monitoring are all effected from above the water. Preferred Features: The three-phase electrical motor (2) is connected by a freewheel drive unit (3) with the drive shaft of the reduction gear (4), through a non-slipping electromagnetic clutch to the nut of a spindle drive (7). Torque of the reduction gear shaft is only transmitted to the nut on exciting the clutch electromagnet. This arrangement promotes linear drive of the shaft, which is locked against rotation and mechanically connected to the thrust rod (9). A spring pack (8) storing mechanical energy is connected by an inner shaft with the spindle nut. Reverse torque of the spring pack is compensated by the holding moment of the freewheel drive unit. On loss of electrical power, the thrust rod is moved by the spring pack, spindle nut and spindle drive combination. The spindle is axially-aligned. Spindle nut and drive are restrained axially by an axial roller bearing (11) exerting axial force on the spindle. The actuator drive casing is fluid-filled, its static pressure being matched with the external pressure. Compensation is provided for reciprocation of the thrust rod and thermally-induced volume changes in the fluid. A standardized adapter (14) connects externally to a remotely-controlled immersion- or diving unit, at the second end of the actuator drive. A rotary coupling (13) projects from this end, for connection to the immersion unit. This is connected to the reduction gear through a square shaft (15) and a hollow shaft of the drive motor (2). A snap-in plate with connector locks the connection. The thrust rod is moved by an inner hex connector, during operation of the coupling by the immersion unit.

Abstract: The gripping device has a grip arm element (2, 3 and 4) driven by a servo actuator (5, 6). The three grip arm elements are mechanically connected together with a common servo actuator (5). For the drive of the grip arm element (3) a second servo actuator is provided with a guide controlling the movement. A carrier element such as a plate has on its surface two servo actuators and the mechanical coupling device (8) of the two grip arm elements are installed.
