The frame has fixed and opening parts (2, 3) articulated to each other around a vertical axis on a periphery of the frame to take a closed position in which the frame has parallelepiped shape, and an opening position. Two sides (1a, 1b) of the parallelepiped frame...

The rigging has a lateen yard (a) articulated at its front lower end at a boom (e) through a hinge fitting (f) for the passage of rope angle. The yard is suspended under the top of bipod mast (b) by a head (c). The boom is retained at a point situated under the vertical of the head of the yard, through a transversal rail (g), where the boom includes a classic sheet (h) in its rear part. The yard i...

The bulkhead has bulkhead portions (13-18) in which each portion forms an electrical conducting element. Metallic corners (19) connect the portions and ensure electrical continuity between the portions, where the corners have a longitudinal axis. The portion (13) has openings (24) to facilitate balancing of pressure between a radar chamber and a front landing gear's case. The openings are covered ...

The device has drive rollers (10) that are placed facing each other in a direction of displacement of a license plate (5). The rollers delimit a dimensional space between the rollers and control the plate. Pressure units (11, 12) are provided for application of an adhesive tape (8) on the support, and are located downstream of the rollers in a plate driving direction. Traction rollers (13, 14) rem...

The process for joint production of electricity, vapor and desalinated water, comprises producing vapor using a unit (2), passing the vapor to a turbine (3) to produce electricity and vapor, evaporating sea water to produce the desalinated water by exchange of heat with the vapor, and controlling a quantity of vapor required to the turbine according to a demand of electricity, desalinized water an...
