Latest Patents
One of Schurig's latest patents is for a material coil, specifically designed for strapping material. This invention features a roll of material, such as a thermoplastic ribbon, which includes a hollow core made from a plastic strip. The ends of this strip are joined by overlapping, and the outer surface of the core is designed to prevent slippage of the material. The plastic strip incorporates an adhesive-coated foil, ensuring that the first winding layer bonds securely to the core, resulting in a mechanically strong roll. This strength can be further enhanced by an adhesive-coated plastic foil that tightly encloses the roll and includes a tear-open tab.
Another significant patent by Schurig is a roller wheel device for supporting heavy objects. This device consists of a bearing axle and a wheel that is rotatably mounted within a roller housing. A lifting device is connected to the axle and wheel, allowing for movement to raise and lower the wheel into a traveling plane. The supporting device is designed to lower onto the traveling plane in response to the lifting device's rotation. This innovative mechanism provides stationary support for the roller disc and any load it carries, while also allowing for rotation relative to the supporting surface when the wheel is lowered.
