Title: Innovations by Wolfgang Fervers
Introduction
Wolfgang Fervers is a notable inventor based in Munich, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of construction equipment through his innovative designs and patents. With a total of 4 patents, Fervers has demonstrated his expertise and creativity in developing advanced technologies.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Controllable Vibration Generator." This invention comprises two unbalance shafts that are positively coupled in a contra-rotative manner. The relative phase position of these shafts can be shifted by a phase-shifting device. Each unbalance shaft supports a main unbalance mass and a partial unbalance mass that can move in relation to the main mass. The position of the partial unbalance masses can be actively altered within a large range by adjusting devices. This allows the resulting vibration vector generated by the vibration generator to be set in a diverse manner with regard to direction and magnitude.
Another significant patent is the "Oscillation Detecting Device for Compacting Soil." This device is designed for compacting soil and comprises a soil contact element that is impinged upon by an oscillation exciter. The soil contact element is elastically coupled to an upper mass, which serves as a detection mass. The acceleration of the upper mass is detected by an acceleration sensor. A measuring signal emitted by the acceleration sensor is evaluated in a control device, which controls the oscillation exciter according to a deviation from a set value.
