A fixture system to be used in a vacuum chamber () of a vacuum treatment system, comprising, a spindle (), a gear wheel, in this text referred to as sun wheel (), a cylindrical object exhibiting properties that allow the gear wheel to mesh into it, in order to rotate said cylindrical object, in this text referred to as reel (), a holding plate (), wherein the sun wheel () and the reel () are manufactured in order to allow the sun wheel () to mesh into the reel (), thereby rotating it.

Fixture to be used in PVD processes for cylindrical, elongated substrates

The invention relates to a workpiece carrier device () for holding and moving workpieces (), having: a workpiece carrier () for receiving workpieces (), which is mounted on a main frame () so as to rotate about an axis (); a drive part, which can likewise rotate about the axis () relative to the workpiece carrier (); and multiple workpiece holders (), which are arranged on the workpiece carrier () in a ring around the drive axis and are mounted on the workpiece carrier () so as to rotate about holder axes () which are spaced from the drive axis. The holder axes () run in such a way in relation to the axis () that the workpiece holders () form a conical crown arrangement (). The invention further relates to a coating method using the workpiece carrier device () according to the invention and to workpieces or substrates () coated by means of the coating method (e.g, pins, pen injectors, balls, ball pins, pistons, nozzle needles etc.).

Workpiece carrier device, method for coating a workpiece, and workpiece

A separation device for supplying and separating workpieces has a workpiece store, a first separation disc having first separation chambers, and a supply disc having workpiece guides, wherein the first separation disc is arranged such that it can be adjusted between a receiving position and a supply position relative to the supply disc, wherein in the supply position the first separation chambers are arranged flush with the workpiece guides, and wherein the first separation chambers are designed to supply workpieces arranged in the first separation chambers to the respective workpiece guides.

Separation device for supplying and separating workpieces and loading system with a separation device and a supply device

The invention relates to a workpiece carrier device () comprising: a drive gear () for receiving workpiece arrangements (), which is rotatable about a main axis (), a number of drive bodies (), which are arranged on the drive gear (), are respectively rotatable about an axis of rotation () and each have a drive pinion () and a stationary internal input gear () with an inner toothing, which meshes with the drive pinions (), wherein the axes of rotation () extend parallel to the main axis () and are arranged in an annular region of the drive gear () that runs concentrically in relation to the main axis (), and so, when there is rotation of the drive gear () relative to the internal input gear (), the drive bodies () rotate about their respective axes of rotation (), wherein the internal input gear () and the drive bodies () with their drive pinions () are formed and arranged in relation to one another and a working clearance (S) is provided between the internal input gear () and the drive pinions () such that a driving effect is transferred to all of the drive pinions () equally during operation. The invention also relates to a coating arrangementcomprising such a workpiece carrier device ().

Workpiece carrier device and coating arrangement

An arrangement for spectacles comprises an endpiece ( ) and a temple headpiece ( ) as well as a hinge ( ), hinge pin ( ) rotatably inserted into a hinge hole ( ), a radial opening ( ) in the hinge eye is disposed on the side thereof which faces away from the outer sides of the temple headpiece and of the endpiece when the temple headpiece takes up its position of use. An abutment device comprises an abutment face ( ) connected to the hinge eye as well as abutment parts ( ) formed on the pin plates. The two pin plates are connected by a connecting wall ( ) extending on the outer side of the temple headpiece or the endpiece parallel to the axis of the hinge pin and connecting the abutment parts to each other.
