Title: Albert Kling and His Particle-Sorting Invention.

Introduction

Albert Kling was an inventor associated with Frankfurt, Germany. His patent work addressed the sorting of mixed particulate materials according to their coefficients of sliding friction.

Latest Patents

Kling is credited with 1 patent, titled “Sorting Process and Apparatus.” The invention uses a revolving endless belt to separate particles based on how readily they slide. The belt’s length and speed are selected so that particles with the highest sliding friction reach the belt’s speed before the discharge edge, while particles with lower friction leave the belt more slowly. Their differing speeds send them along different trajectories, allowing appropriately positioned collection devices to sort them.

Career Highlights

Kling’s recorded patent is associated with Metallgesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft. It describes a mechanical approach to particle separation that uses differences in friction and motion to direct materials into separate collection paths.

Collaborations

Kling’s listed coworkers include Karl Heil and Hans-Peter Sattler. The available information identifies them as coworkers but does not specify their individual contributions to the patent.

Conclusion

Albert Kling’s patent documents an inventive sorting method that uses sliding friction and belt-driven motion to separate mixed particles into distinct streams.
