A heel holder includes a base plate mountable on the ski, a sole holder supported for vertical and transverse horizontal movement relative to the base plate, a first locking mechanism for yieldably resisting upward movement of the sole holder away from a closed position adjacent the base plate, and a second locking mechanism which prevents transverse horizontal movement of the sole holder until it...

The invention relates to a safety ski binding having a sole-holder which can be swivelled about a transverse axis and a vertical axis and is held in its normal position holding the boot by catch elements which yield only after overcoming predetermined vertical and lateral releasing forces, the catch elements of the two engagements being provided spatially separately from one another on a catch sup...

TIRE CURING METHOD A method of curing a green rubber tire having a closed interior cavity with two spaced ports extending from the interior cavity to the tire exterior. The method includes the step of forming the tire on the porous, disintegratable core and then positioning the tire within a pressure vessel. The pressure vessel and the interior cavity and porous core are then filled with a liquid ...

A process is provided for mechanically surface-finishing a textile fabric which comprises continuously feeding said fabric from a source of supply, such that said fabric lies in a single plane, subjecting successive adjacent sections of the fabric to intermittent mechanical impact with an abrasive means across the width of said fabric thereby avoiding substantial sustained contact between the fabr...

BRYANT For: TIRE BUILDING APPARATUS A tire building apparatus having two end drums disposed on respective opposite sides of an intermediate drum, with the intermediate drum embodying an expandable. sleeve for pneumatically expanding and supporting the portion of a tire carcass to be disposed between the beads of a completed tire, and with the end drums carrying bead...

PNEUMATICALLY EXPANDING TIRE BUILDING APPARATUS A tire building apparatus having two end drums disposed on respective opposite sides of an intermediate drum, with the intermediate drum embodying a perforated sleeve for supporting the portion of a tire carcass to be disposed between the beads of a completed tire and for permitted air to flow therethrough into direct contact with the aforementioned ...

A method and apparatus for grooving a tire (14) tread in which a computerized numerical controller(64) regulates the positional relationships between the tire and a hot cutting knife(54). The controller(64)through a plurality of servo motors(38,48,58, etc) causes the tire(14)to rotate in a vertical plane while effecting lateral and rotational movement of the cutter knife(54) in each of two planes....

Acylbiphenylylaminoalkanoic acids of the general formula I (I), in which R1 signifies an aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon radical or an optionally substituted phenyl group, A signifies an optionally substituted and/or hydrogenated biphenylyl radical and n signifies a positive whole number from 3 to 5, as well as their salts of inorganic or organic bases exert on warm-blooded animals a prot...

Novel improved polymer/polyisocyanate composition made by polymerizing acrylonitrile alone or with one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomer in situ in a polyisocyanate. The polyisocyanate comprises a diarylalkylene diisocyanate. a polymeric diarylalkylene polyisocyanate; a quasi-prepolymer of a diarylalkylene diisocyanate or a polymeric diarylalkylene diisocyanate with an active hydrogen orga...

Mixtures which are used for the production of polyurethane foam and which contain amines having primary or secondary aliphatic hydroxyl groups, and also customary quantities of trichlorotrifluoroethane and/or trichlorofluoromethane as a blowing agent, can be stabilized against the premature reaction of the components by adding 0.05 to 5% by weight of 2,4-diphenyl-4-methylpentene in which the ratio...

A process for the preparation of a known pesticidal alpha -cyano-3-phenoxy-benzyl 3-alkenyl-2,2-dimethyl-cyclopropanecarboxylate of the general formula (I) in which R1 and R2 independently of each other represent a hydrogen or halogen atom, R3 represents a hydrogen or halogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl group, and R4 represents a halogen atom, an optionally substituted alkyl...

The invention relates to apparatus for detecting the stuck point of a conduit, such as drill pipes, in a borehole while eliminating any stress on the detection means during the measurement. A two-part body member is suspended from a cable with the two parts (23 and 24) mounted movably with respect to each other. Each part is anchored independently in the drill pipes and movements between these par...
