The invention relates to a radiology table in which a column carrying an X-ray source is telescopic and can be tilted relative to the patient plane. In the table according to the invention, the tilting movement and length variation of the column are obtained by means of a single motor carried by the base of the column. The output shaft of this motor carries a crank, whose crank pin simultaneously ...

PURPOSE:To suppress the generation of shock by switching valve operating characteristic on the basis of the formed switching conditions when the output torque of a transmission is equal to a predicted switching output torque, and also releasing correction of transmitting torque capacity. CONSTITUTION:In a case such that the output torque of an engine E is fluctuated by the switching of operating c...

PURPOSE:To detect an attitude angle in a simple manner by operating the relative attitude angle of a vehicle running ahead against one's own vehicle based on the distance between the vehicles detected by a detecting means, the respective size of the right and left portions of a symmetrical section appearing in an image, and on the distance between the symmetrical portions. CONSTITUTION:An image ob...

PURPOSE:To enable a vehicle to be started with ease by obtaining a critical change gear ratio for acquiring vehicle drive force suitable to the frictional coefficient of road surfaces at the time of restarting based on actual deceleration, and thereby changing the change gear ratio of a continuously variable transmission. CONSTITUTION:A CVT control device 34 inputs signals from a throttle sensor 3...

A lead-accumulator with at least one separator made from filled poly-olefins is described, in which the formation of coloured, mostly dark and often adhesive deposits occurring in practice is reduced in quantity. This is achieved by the fact that in the accumulator, there are present one or more non-ionic surfactants of a specific structure, the HLB-value of which amounts to at least 5. In additio...

A method of electrochemically forming battery plate stock spaces are provided between portions of the battery stock which may be in coil form and have gaps between adjacent wraps. Forming is preferably accomplished in a forming tank with a forming element such as an electrode or coil of opposite polarity being positioned in spaced relationship with respect to the edge of the battery plate stock. T...
