A device for uniting residual sheet pile and a main sheet pile into an aggregate pile, wherein a lowermost sheet of the residual sheet pile rests on an uppermost sheet of the main sheet pile, includes a pile-carrying plate having a horizontally oriented upper side whereon the residual sheet pile rests with its lowermost sheet prior to a performance of a pile uniting process, the pile-carrying plat...

A control apparatus for use in an intermal combustion engine system of a motor vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission having therein a lock-up mechanism. There is included a vehicle resonance reducing section for controlling an opening degree of a throttle valve when the motor vehicle is in an acceleration state so as to reduce a vehicle resonance accompanying an operation of the engine. ...

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rotor 1a für Prall- oder Hammermühlen, dessen Rotorscheiben 1 aus Stahlguß hergestellt sind und verbreiterte Naben 3 aufweisen, die erfindungsgemäß an ihren Stirnflächen miteinander verschweißt sind. Vor dem Schweißvorgang werden die Rotorscheiben zentriert zusammengefügt. Die Außenränder der Rotorscheiben bleiben - zumindest zunächst - zueinander unverbunden, d.h. sie...

For the comminution of fresh wash powder coarse particles after drying, a hammer bar mill can be used, the beater wheel (3) of which is equipped with two diametrically opposite, enlarged clearing beaters (9) which keep a milling space (8) on the circumference (6) of the beater wheel (3) free and thus prevent a blocking of the beater wheel (3). The peripheral edge (10) of the clearing beater (9) ca...

The invention comprises subjecting shellfish (2) to infrared radiation (4,6) for a time preferably between 30 seconds and 3 minutes and involves three phases during which the shellfish (2) are exposed to radiation firstly from above, then over the entire shell surface and finally from below. The installation comprises an endless conveyor (12) equipped with upper emitters (16) placed above the conv...

A process is disclosed for manufacturing a high strength composite structure by needling individual webs of initially spunbonded material and then needle-punching a stack of the individual webs to enmesh and entangle filaments across the webs, with little or no loss of the initial filament-related strength.

Certain relief parts (11, 13) of a tread (1) for a radial tyre, are provided at least with incisions (41, 42, 43) having, in cross-section, outlines in the form of forks, and at least two prongs (41B, 41C) extending from a single portion (41A), the number of incisions (41) on the relief part (12, 13) being multiplied by a factor of at least 1.5 from the depth (h1) of the two-pronged incision (41)....

A packaging machine for inserting products (19) into a gap between two halves of a center-folded film (2) has two sealer elements. The first sealer element (7) cuts and heat-seals the center-folded film (2) along a line extending at right angles to the fold of the film (2), thereby forming a bag containing a product. The second sealer element (22) heat-seals each bag along an open side thereof whi...

The invention relates to a method for adjusting the foam surface height in a flotation cell. The invention is particularly well suited to flotation cells provided with a rotor-stator system, and especially to systems with several successive flotation cells and lines. The foam surface height (2) is regulated by adjusting the height of the chutes (5) or of the edge plates (9) of the chutes.

A software-initiated system reset 10 is generated in response to invalid interrupts generated within a system which comprises control means for maintaining system control, and at least one device external to and under the control of the control means.
