Title: Egon Braun: Inventor in Particle-Sorting Technology

Introduction

Egon Braun was an inventor associated with Frankfurt, Germany. His recorded patent work includes an invention for sorting particles according to their coefficients of sliding friction.

Latest Patents

Braun is credited with 1 patent, titled “Sorting Process and Apparatus.” The invention describes feeding mixed particulate material onto a revolving endless belt. The belt’s length and speed are selected so that particles with the highest sliding-friction coefficients accelerate to belt speed, while particles with lower coefficients leave the belt more slowly. Their different speeds produce distinct trajectories, allowing the particles to be separated and collected by appropriately positioned devices.

Career Highlights

Braun was associated with Metallgesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft. His patent describes a mechanical approach to separating mixed particles by using differences in friction and motion.

Collaborations

Albert Kling and Hans-Peter Sattler are identified as Braun’s coworkers. The available information does not specify their roles in the patent or the sorting technology.

Conclusion

Egon Braun’s recorded invention presents a belt-based method for sorting particulate materials by sliding friction, reflecting his association with industrial innovation at Metallgesellschaft Aktiengesellschaft.
