Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen eingangs genannten Temperaturfühler sowie ein Verfahren zu seiner Justierung zu schaffen, mit denen Probleme des Standes der Technik gelöst werden können und insbesondere eine vorgenannte Justierung konstruktiv sowie vom Ablauf gut erfolgen kann.The invention has for its object to provide a temperature sensor mentioned above and a method for its adjustment, with which problems of the prior art can be solved and in particular an aforementioned adjustment can be done constructively and well from the process.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Temperaturfühler mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 sowie ein Verfahren zu seiner Justierung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 5. Vorteilhafte sowie bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der weiteren Ansprüche und werden im Folgenden näher erläutert. Manche der nachfolgend aufgezählten Merkmale werden nur für den Temperaturfühler oder nur für das Verfahren genannt. Sie sollen jedoch unabhängig davon sowohl für den Temperaturfühler als auch für das Verfahren gelten können. Der Wortlaut der Ansprüche wird durch ausdrückliche Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht.This object is achieved by a temperature sensor with the features of claim 1 and a method for its adjustment with the features of claim 5. Advantageous and preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject of further claims and will be explained in more detail below. Some of the features listed below are only mentioned for the temperature sensor or just for the procedure. However, they should be able to apply independently to both the temperature sensor and the method. The wording of the claims is incorporated herein by express reference.
Es ist vorgesehen, dass der Temperaturfühler ein Gehäuse aufweist, welches zwei Schaltfedern enthält, wobei ein erstes rohrartiges Ausdehnungselement mit dem Gehäuse verbunden ist. Dieses erste Ausdehnungselement enthält ein zweites Ausdehnungselement, das als Stab ausgebildet ist, wobei die beiden Ausdehnungselemente unterschiedliche Wärmeausdehnungskoeffizienten aufweisen und bei Erwärmung bzw. Temperaturveränderungen eine Relativbewegung zueinander durchführen. Eine erste Schaltfeder im Temperaturfühler ist gegen eine Stelle vorgespannt und trägt einen Schaltkontakt, wobei auf eine Seite der Schaltfeder der Stab wirkt, wozu vorteilhaft ein Zwischenelement vorgesehen sein kann, sodass der Stab nicht unmittelbar die Schaltfeder berührt. In Wirkrichtung des Stabes bzw. des länglichen Zwischenelementes in Verlängerung des Stabes ist eine zweite Schaltfeder vorgesehen, die an einer zweiten Schaltfederbasis befestigt ist.It is envisaged that the temperature sensor comprises a housing which contains two switching springs, wherein a first tubular expansion element is connected to the housing. This first expansion element includes a second expansion element, which is designed as a rod, wherein the two expansion elements have different thermal expansion coefficients and perform a relative movement to each other when heated or temperature changes. A first switching spring in the temperature sensor is biased against a position and carries a switching contact, which acts on one side of the switching spring of the rod, for which an advantageous intermediate element may be provided so that the rod does not directly touch the switching spring. In the effective direction of the rod or the elongated intermediate element in extension of the rod, a second switching spring is provided which is fixed to a second switching spring base.
Erfindungsgemäß ist bei einer ersten grundsätzlichen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die zweite Schaltfederbasis so ausgebildet, dass sie zur Justierung des Schaltpunktes der zweiten Schaltfeder verlagerbar ist bzw. bewegt werden kann mit zumindest einer Richtungskomponente in Längsrichtung des Stabes. Die Position der zweiten Schaltfederbasis für den Einsatz ist dann durch Arretiermittel arretierbar bzw. kann durch Arretiermittel festgelegt werden, vorteilhaft dauerhaft. So wird der justierte Zustand der Schaltfeder fixiert.According to the invention, in a first basic embodiment of the invention, the second switching spring base is designed so that it is displaceable for adjusting the switching point of the second switching spring or can be moved with at least one directional component in the longitudinal direction of the rod. The position of the second switching spring base for the insert can then be locked by locking means or by locking means be set, advantageously permanently. So the adjusted state of the switching spring is fixed.
Dadurch ist es möglich, dass, anders als im Stand der Technik, nicht die Position einer Schaltfeder bzw. der zweiten Schaltfeder zu ihrer zweiten Schaltfederbasis, an der sie befestigt ist, verändert wird als Relativbewegung, sondern die Position der zweiten Schaltfederbasis im Gehäuse des Temperaturfühlers selbst. Dies verbessert die Einstellbarkeit sowie die Schaltgenauigkeit erheblich. Vor allem kann hier eine Arretierung bzw. Festlegung der zweiten Schaltfederbasis an dem Gehäuse des Temperaturfühlers auf stabile Art und Weise dauerhaft erfolgen, beispielsweise durch Festschweißen der metallischen Schaltfederbasis an einem metallischen Teil im Temperaturfühlergehäuse. So können spätere Änderungen oder ungewünschte Verstellungen verhindert werden.This makes it possible that, unlike in the prior art, not the position of a switching spring or the second switching spring to its second switching spring base to which it is attached, is changed as a relative movement, but the position of the second switching spring base in the housing of the temperature sensor This improves the adjustability and the switching accuracy considerably. Above all, a locking or fixing of the second switching spring base on the housing of the temperature sensor can be carried out in a stable manner permanently, for example, by firmly welding the metallic spring base to a metallic part in the temperature sensor housing. So later changes or unwanted adjustments can be prevented.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung liegt der Stab auf genannte Art und Weise mittels des genannten Zwischenelementes an der ersten Schaltfeder an, um diese auszulösen am Auslösepunkt bzw. ihrem Schaltpunkt. Ein solches Zwischenelement weist den Vorteil auf, dass es länglich und stabartig ausgebildet sein kann und somit durch die Schaltfeder hindurch auch den Anlagepunkt für die zweite Schaltfeder darstellen kann.In an embodiment of the invention, the rod is in the manner mentioned by means of said intermediate element to the first switching spring to trigger this at the trigger point or its switching point. Such an intermediate element has the advantage that it can be elongated and rod-like and thus can also represent the contact point for the second switching spring through the switching spring.
Es ist zwar möglich, eine Justierung für den Auslösepunkt der ersten Schaltfeder in diesem Zwischenelement bzw. in einer Anlage des Zwischenelements an dem Stab oder an der ersten Schaltfeder zu integrieren. Dies kann beispielsweise mittels eines verstellbaren Schraubgewindes erfolgen, beispielsweise mit einer in Längsrichtung des Stabes verlaufenden Schraube bzw. Madenschraube, die an dem Stab oder der ersten Schaltfeder anliegt. Durch Verdrehen der Schraube kann dann der Auslösepunkt genau eingestellt werden. Vorteilhaft erfolgt das Einstellen aber durch einen Metallstift, der in das noch offene andere Ende des Rohres eingeführt ist und an dem der Stab anliegt. Durch Verschieben des Metallstifts entlang der Längsrichtung des Rohres kann dann die Einstellung erfolgen, welche durch sein Befestigen am Rohr, beispielsweise durch Schweißen, endgültig gemacht werden kann. Dies ist dem Fachmann aber bekannt.Although it is possible to integrate an adjustment for the trigger point of the first switching spring in this intermediate element or in a system of the intermediate element on the rod or on the first switching spring. This can be done for example by means of an adjustable screw thread, for example, with a running in the longitudinal direction of the rod screw or grub screw which bears against the rod or the first switching spring. By turning the screw, the trigger point can then be set exactly. However, the adjustment is advantageously carried out by a metal pin which is inserted into the still open other end of the tube and against which the rod. By moving the metal pin along the longitudinal direction of the tube then the adjustment can be made, which by its attachment to the pipe, for example by welding, can be made final. However, this is known to the person skilled in the art.
Das Zwischenelement besteht vorteilhaft aus Keramik. So kann der Stab möglicherweise auch aus Metall gefertigt sein.The intermediate element is advantageously made of ceramic. Thus, the rod may possibly be made of metal.
Die zweite Schaltfederbasis ist länglich und ist in einem Endbereich der zweiten Schaltfeder mit dieser verbunden, der von deren Endbereich mit dem Schaltkontakt entfernt ist. An ihrem anderen Endbereich ist die zweite Schaltfederbasis unveränderbar an dem Temperaturfühlergehäuse festgelegt, wobei hier eine gewisse Bewegbarkeit bzw. Biegbarkeit nach Art einer Drehung um einen geringen Winkel möglich sein soll. Es ist nahe oder im Bereich der Verbindung der zweiten Schaltfederbasis mit der zweiten Schaltfeder ein verstellbares Arretiermittel für die Schaltfederbasis am Temperaturfühlergehäuse vorgesehen, welches entweder direkt an dem Gehäuse oder an einem darin fixierten Teil in unterschiedlicher Positionierung festlegbar ist. Durch diese Festlegung wird also die Position der zweiten Schaltfederbasis und somit auch der davon getragenen zweiten Schaltfeder zum Stab bzw. einen die Bewegung des Stabes auf die zweite Schaltfeder übertragenden Zwischenelementes festgelegt.The second switch spring base is elongated and is connected in an end region of the second switch spring with this, which is removed from the end region with the switching contact. At its other end region, the second switching spring base is fixed immutable to the temperature sensor housing, in which case a certain mobility or bendability in the manner of rotation about a small angle should be possible. It is close to or provided in the region of the connection of the second switching spring base with the second switching spring an adjustable locking means for the switching spring base on the temperature sensor housing, which can be fixed either directly on the housing or on a part fixed therein in different positions. By this definition, therefore, the position of the second switching spring base and thus also the second switching spring carried thereby to the rod or a movement of the rod on the second switching spring transmitting intermediate element is set.
Als Arretierungsmittel ist bei der Erfindung ein von der zweiten Schaltfederbasis abstehender Abschnitt vorgesehen, der in etwa rechtwinklig zur Längserstreckung der zweiten Schaltfederbasis verlaufen kann, also von dieser absteht. Es kann insbesondere ein abstehender Arretierungsarm vorgesehen sein, der zur Festlegung der endgültigen Position der zweiten Schaltfederbasis im Gehäuse an einem in dem Gehäuse befestigten Metallteil festgelegt ist, insbesondere angeschweißt ist. Das Schweißen bewirkt hier eine dauerhafte und nicht mehr veränderbare Festlegung.As a locking means projecting from the second switching spring base portion is provided in the invention, which can extend approximately at right angles to the longitudinal extent of the second switching spring base, that protrudes from this. In particular, a protruding locking arm can be provided, which is fixed to fix the final position of the second switching spring base in the housing to a metal part fixed in the housing, in particular welded. Welding here causes a permanent and no longer changeable definition.
Bei der Justierung eines Temperaturfühlers wird dann bei einer bestimmten Temperatur, bei der die zweite Schaltfeder auslösen soll bzw. ihre Schaltfunktion ausüben soll, bei noch nicht festgelegtem Arretierungsmittel der zweiten Schaltfederbasis der entsprechende Schaltpunkt an der zweiten Schaltfeder eingestellt. Dazu wird die Position der zweiten Schaltfederbasis entsprechend eingestellt, dass die zweite Schaltfeder hier schaltet. Danach wird dann die zweite Schaltfederbasis in genau dieser Position festgelegt, beispielsweise indem der vorgenannte Arretierungsabschnitt bzw. Arretierungsarm an dem Gehäuse des Temperaturfühlers dauerhaft befestigt wird. Dabei kann er insbesondere an einem genannten Metallteil angeschweißt werden. Alternativ zu einem Schweißen sind auch dauerhaft ausgelegte Klemmverbindungen möglich. Das Verschweißen, insbesondere als Laserschweißen, geht jedoch schnell und ist ausreichend stabil und dauerhaft.When adjusting a temperature sensor is then set at a certain temperature at which the second switching spring to trigger or should perform their switching function, not yet set locking means of the second switching spring base of the corresponding switching point on the second switching spring. For this purpose, the position of the second switching spring base is adjusted accordingly, that the second switching spring switches here. Thereafter, the second switching spring base is then set in exactly this position, for example by the aforementioned detent or Arretierungsarm is permanently attached to the housing of the temperature sensor. He can in particular be welded to a said metal part. As an alternative to welding, permanently designed clamping connections are also possible. However, welding, especially as laser welding, is fast and sufficiently stable and durable.
Für eine erste Schaltfederbasis kann vorgesehen sein, dass diese hinsichtlich ihrer Position in dem Temperaturfühlergehäuse nicht verändert werden kann bzw. bei Montage nur in einer einzigen Position montiert werden kann. Hier erfolgt die Justierung vorteilhaft über das vorgenannte Zwischenelement zwischen erster Schaltfederbasis und dem stabartigen zweiten Ausdehnungselement. Alternativ kann eine Justierung des Auslösepunktes der ersten Schaltfeder auch über eine veränderbare Anordnung des Stabes in dem rohrartigen ersten Ausdehnungselement erfolgen, beispielsweise indem die beiden von dem Gehäuse weg weisenden Endbereiche miteinander verbunden sind und diese Verbindung verstellbar ist. Dazu kann eine Justierschraube oder ein Metallstift, an dem der Stab anliegt, in das Ende des rohrartigen ersten Ausdehnungselementes in Längsrichtung des Stabes eingreifen. Durch Verstellen in Längsrichtung kann die Justierung des Auslösepunktes erfolgen und abschließend kann Justierschraube oder der Metallstift fixiert werden, beispielsweise geklemmt oder verschweißt.For a first switching spring base can be provided that this can not be changed with respect to their position in the temperature sensor housing or can be mounted during assembly only in a single position. Here, the adjustment is advantageously carried out via the aforementioned intermediate element between the first switching spring base and the rod-like second expansion element. Alternatively, an adjustment of the trigger point of the first switching spring can also take place via a variable arrangement of the rod in the tubular first expansion element, for example by the two facing away from the housing end portions are interconnected and this connection is adjustable. For this purpose, an adjusting screw or a metal pin on which the rod rests, engage in the end of the tubular first expansion element in the longitudinal direction of the rod. By adjusting in the longitudinal direction, the adjustment of the trigger point can be done and finally adjusting screw or metal pin can be fixed, for example, clamped or welded.
Bei einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann dem Schaltkontakt ein Gegenkontakt zugeordnet und in der anderen Richtung, also von dem Gegenkontakt weg, ein Gegenanschlag vorgesehen sein. An diesen schlägt der Schaltkontakt bei geöffneter Schaltfeder an. Dabei kann der Gegenanschlag in Richtung auf den Gegenkontakt zu oder davon weg verstellt werden. In bevorzugter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann der Gegenanschlag in etwa entlang der Bewegungsrichtung des Schaltkontaktes beim Öffnen oder Schließen der Schaltfeder verstellbar sein bzw. verstellt werden. Mit dem Gegenanschlag lässt sich das Schaltverhalten der Schaltfeder beeinflussen, insbesondere hinsichtlich eines Hysteresefensters, also der beiden Schaltpunkte für beide Schaltvorgänge.In a further embodiment of the invention, the switch contact associated with a mating contact and in the other direction, ie away from the mating contact, a counter-stop may be provided. At these strikes the switching contact with open switching spring. In this case, the counter-stop can be adjusted in the direction of the mating contact to or away. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the counter-stop can be adjusted or adjusted approximately along the direction of movement of the switching contact when opening or closing the switching spring. With the counter-stop, the switching behavior of the switching spring can be influenced, in particular with regard to a hysteresis window, ie the two switching points for both switching operations.
Vorteilhaft ist der Gegenanschlag veränderbar bzw. kann verstellt werden durch eine zumindest zeitweise gegebene Bewegbarkeit. Er kann als Schieber auf einem als Führung ausgebildeten Halter ausgebildet sein. Schieber und Halter können nach der Einstellung des Gegenanschlags zueinander fixiert sein, vorzugsweise durch Verbiegen bzw. Verquetschen oder Verschweißen.Advantageously, the counter-stop is variable or can be adjusted by an at least temporarily given mobility. It can be designed as a slide on a trained as a guide holder. Slide and holder can be fixed to each other after the setting of the counter-stop, preferably by bending or crimping or welding.
Alternativ kann der Gegenanschlag zur Verstellung verbogen werden und durch die Verbiegung sein Abstand von dem Gegenkontakt eingestellt werden. Dabei kann der Gegenanschlag derart massiv bzw. stabil ausgebildet sein, dass er durch die sich öffnende und dabei anschlagende Schaltfeder nicht verbogen wird.Alternatively, the counter-stop can be bent for adjustment and be adjusted by the deflection of its distance from the mating contact. In this case, the counter-stop can be designed so solid or stable that it is not bent by the opening and thereby striking switching spring.
Bei einem Verfahren zur Justierung eines vorgenannten Temperaturfühlers gemäß der weiteren Ausgestaltung wird bei einer bestimmten Temperatur, bei der die Schaltfeder mit dem Gegenanschlag wieder schlie-βen soll, bzw. zur Bestimmung eines gewünschten Hysteresefensters zwischen Öffnen und Schließen der Schaltfeder der Gegenanschlag so lange in Richtung des Gegenkontaktes bewegt wird, bis die Schaltfeder bei einer gewünschten Temperatur wieder schaltet bzw. schließt. Dann kann bei dieser Temperatur eine Fixierung bzw. Festlegung des Gegenanschlages erfolgen. Dies kann vorteilhaft erfolgen wie zuvor beschrieben.In a method for adjusting an aforementioned temperature sensor according to the further embodiment is at a certain temperature at which the switching spring with the counter-stop again-βen, or to determine a desired Hysteresefensters between opening and closing the switch spring counter-stop so long in the direction the mating contact is moved until the switching spring switches again at a desired temperature or closes. Then, at this temperature, a fixation or determination of the counter-attack. This can be done advantageously as described above.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Temperaturfühlers mit zwei Schaltfedern ist in der
Die
Der Zwischenstift 18 weist einen seitlich abstehenden Stiftarm 19 auf, der auf eine erste Schaltfeder 20 des Temperaturfühlers 11 wirkt, und zwar auf deren linken Endbereich. An ihrem anderen rechten Endbereich weist die erste Schaltfeder 20 einen ersten Schaltkontakt 21 auf, wobei die erste Schaltfeder 20 im Wesentlichen wie aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt aufgebaut ist, siehe beispielsweise die vorgenannte
Das obere Ende des Zwischenstifts 18 liegt direkt an einer zweiten Schaltfeder 28 an, und zwar nahe an deren rechtem Endbereich, ungefähr zwischen der Mitte und dem rechten Endbereich. Dazu kann der Zwischenstift durch die erste Schaltfeder 20 hindurch verlaufen. Auch diese zweite Schaltfeder 28 mit einem am linken Ende vorgesehenen zweiten Schaltfederkontakt 29 ist wie aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt aufgebaut, insbesondere was ihr Schaltverhalten und auch ihren Auslösepunkt bzw. Schaltpunkt betrifft.The upper end of the
Die erste Schaltfeder 20 wird üblicherweise für das Unterbrechen einer Leistungsversorgung eines Strahlungsheizkörpers verwendet, dessen Betriebstemperatur den Temperaturfühler 11 überwachen soll. Die zweite Schaltfeder 28 schaltet üblicherweise eine Heißanzeige, die also eine noch für eine Berührung zu hohe Resttemperatur an einer Glaskeramik-Kochfläche über dem Strahlungsheizkörper anzeigt.The
Der rechte Endbereich der zweiten Schaltfeder 28 ist mit einer zweiten Schaltfederbasis 31 verbunden, vorteilhaft verschweißt. Die zweite Schaltfederbasis 31 ist mit ihrem linken Endbereich 32 an einem zweiten Halteteil 35 verschweißt. Der rechte Endbereich der zweiten Schaltfederbasis 31 ist grundsätzlich frei beweglich bzw. sie ist quasi um ihren linken Endbereich 32 mit einer Bewegung ähnlich einer Rotation bewegbar. Durch diese rotatorische Bewegbarkeit des rechten Endbereichs, der die zweite Schaltfeder 28 trägt, nach oben oder unten kann deren Auslösepunkt bzw. Schaltpunkt relativ zu dem Zwischenstift 18 eingestellt bzw. justiert werden.The right end portion of the
In
In ähnlicher Weise ist bei der zweiten Schaltfeder 28 oberhalb des zweiten Schaltfederkontaktes 29 ein zweiter Gegenhalter 42 vorgesehen, der aus dem Ende des linken Endbereichs 32 stiftartig heraus gebogen ist. Somit ist der zweite Gegenhalter 42 nicht direkt verschiebbar oder sonst frei bewegbar, insbesondere gegenüber dem zweiten Gegenkontakt. Dafür kann der zweite Gegenhalter 42 durch unterschiedlich starkes Abbiegen bzw. Biegen auf den Gegenkontakt zu oder davon weg in seinem Abstand zu dem freien Ende der zweiten Schaltfeder 28 mit dem Schaltfederkontakt 29 verändert werden.Similarly, in the
Bei noch bewegbarer zweiter Schaltfederbasis 31 erfolgt eine solche Justierung der an ihr befestigten zweiten Schaltfeder durch Bewegen bzw. Drehen der zweiten Schaltfederbasis. Danach soll diese in ihrer Position festgelegt werden. Dazu weist sie nahe dem rechten Endbereich einen Arretierungsarm 33 auf, der in etwa rechtwinklig von der zweiten Schaltfederbasis 31 absteht. Er liegt an dem zweiten Halteteil 35 an und kann an einem Berührungspunkt mit diesem festgelegt werden, vorteilhaft verschweißt werden, insbesondere mittels eines Lasers. Dann ist die gesamte zweite Schaltfederbasis 31 in ihrer Position und Ausrichtung festgelegt, und zwar gleich so, dass der Auslösepunkt bzw. Schaltpunkt für die zweite Schaltfeder 28 justiert ist auf eine bestimmte gewünschte Temperatur.With the second
Bei diesem Justierverfahren ist insgesamt vorteilhaft zuerst eine Justierung der ersten Schaltfeder 20 bzw. von deren Auslösepunkt oder Schaltpunkt vorzusehen, da diese in der Regel durch Verstellung der Position des Zwischenstücks 18 zu dem Stab 14 erfolgt.In this adjustment method, an adjustment of the
In für den Fachmann leicht zu erkennender alternativen Abwandlung der Erfindung ist es möglich, dass der Endbereich der zweiten Schaltfederbasis 31, an dem auch die zweite Schaltfeder 28 selbst befestigt ist, nicht bei der Justierung der zweiten Schaltfeder 28 arretiert wird, sondern der andere Endbereich. Von der Justiergenauigkeit her bietet es sich aber anders an. Des Weiteren ist es zwar vorteilhaft, wenn der genannte Arretierungsarm 33 möglichst weit am Ende der zweiten Schaltfederbasis 31 vorgesehen ist, da dann die Justiergenauigkeit am größten ist. Dies ist aber nicht zwingend notwendig. Konstruktive und bauliche Vorgaben sowie eine gute Erreichbarkeit des Befestigungspunktes sind ebenfalls zu beachten.In an alternative modification of the invention that is easily recognizable to the person skilled in the art, it is possible for the end region of the second
Wie zuvor beschrieben worden ist, können der Gegenhalter 40 und der zweite Gegenhalter 42 jeweils verändert werden in ihrem Abstand zu dem freien Ende der jeweiligen Schaltfeder bzw. dem jeweiligen Gegenkontakt und auch Schaltfederkontakt. Ist dieser Abstand größer, so öffnet die jeweilige Schaltfeder weiter. Dies wiederum hat Auswirkungen auf den Auslösepunkt bei der nach Öffnen des Schalters bald wieder erfolgenden Schließbewegung durch die Ausdehnungselemente.As previously described, the
Zum genauen Einstellen des Gegenanschlages, insbesondere des Gegenhalters 40, wird an den Ausdehnungselementen 13 und 14 die Temperatur eingestellt bzw. erzeugt, bei der die erste Schaltfeder 20 nach einem vorherigen Öffnen wieder schließen soll. Der Gegenhalter 40 wird dazu relativ weit von dem Gegenkontakt des Schaltkontaktes 21 weg bewegt und dann langsam wieder darauf zu, bis eben bei der eingestellten Temperatur die Schaltfeder 20 wieder schaltet und den Kontakt schließt bzw. der Schaltkontakt 21 an dem Gegenkontakt darüber anliegt. Dann wird der Schieber 39 an dem Halter 37 fixiert, beispielsweise durch Verklemmen bzw. Verquetschen, Klebstoff oder aber durch Verschweißen bzw. Verlöten.For accurate adjustment of the counter-attack, in particular the counter-holder 40, the temperature is set or generated at the
In ähnlicher Weise kann, falls gewünscht, der zweite Gegenhalter 42 justiert werden. Hier erfolgt die Justierung durch ein mehr oder weniger starkes Herausbiegen oder Verbiegen in Richtung auf den zweiten Schaltfederkontakt 29 zu oder davon weg.Similarly, if desired, the
