PURPOSE:To prevent falling-off of active material due to repetition of overcharge and maintain discharge performance over a long period of time by making an active material layer touching a collector in proximity to the collector contain more maintaining material than an active material layer on the surface. CONSTITUTION:An active material layer touching a collector in proximity to the collector i...

PURPOSE:To link both brake control and engine output control to each other by operating an engine output control device in response to a slip signal used in brake control and sending and receiving a brake uncontrollable signal and an engine output uncontrollable signal between a driving slip control device and the engine output control device. CONSTITUTION:Three signal lines 20a, 20b, 20c are disp...

PURPOSE:To always conduct suitable control by setting differential limiting torque to zero at the time of normal braking, setting small differential limiting torque at the time of ABS operation, and giving priority to the ABS operation side when both differential limiting torques coexist. CONSTITUTION:The respective detection signals such as a front wheel rotational frequency, a rear wheel rotatio...

Red blood cells being salvaged are centrifuged into a liquid layer, mixed with a wash solution, and thereafter separated therefrom.

The invention relates to a method of preventing the formation of lead dust during the manufacture and assembly of electrode plates of lead-acid batteries. It is proposed that the plates should be impregnated, preferably with a sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, prior to drying. This achieves not only an immobilisation of lead dust on the surface of the plates but also a marked improvement of certa...

The gamma camera equipment according to the invention comprises two detector heads 10, 30 which are capable either of being combined for an examination of the whole-body type, in which the two detector heads cooperate, or of being separated for a tomography type examination, only one head 10 being used, while the other 30 is in a stand-by position but continues to be fed with current. To strengthe...

The front end (S) and rear end (K) of a belt-shaped member (18) having a predetermined length are grasped by front end grasping means (62) and rear end grasping means (90), respectively, movable in synchronism with and independently from each other when required. The front and rear end grasping means are moved in synchronism with each other until the front end (S) of the belt-shaped member arrives...

A shift control system for a vehicle transmission (M) with multiple gear trains and connected to an engine crankshaft (CR) through a clutch (C) for shifting without disengaging the clutch (C). In conducting a shifting operation through a roller synchro mechanism (R) associated with a gear train, the number of revolutions of the engine crankshaft (CR) is promptly decreased through at least one of a...

Ethylene/1,5-hexadiene copolymers and higher interpolymers having structural characteristics that provide improved physical properties and processability. The ethylene polymers of the invention have narrow molecular weight distribution and/or narrow composition distribution and/or a low cluster index. The 1,5-hexadiene comonomer is predominantly incorporated as a cyclic ring in the polyethylene ba...

In order to solve handling problems which arise during use of a mammograph, the x-ray tube of the mammograph is carried by the end of an arm which rotates about an axis at right angles to the arm. The other elements of the mammograph are carried by another arm which is placed in a plane parallel to the plane of rotation of the first arm and rotates about the same axis. It is shown that, by moving ...

A bistable electromechanical transducer is disclosed having an armature (3, 20) reciprocable between first and second positions, a permanent magnet (26) latching arrangement for maintaining the armature (3, 20) in the respective positions, and an electromagnetic repulsion arrangement (13, 15) operable when energized to dislodge the armature (3, 20) from the position in which the armature was maint...

A sheet feed device (5), for instance for a recording apparatus, for feeding sheets one-by-one from sheet receiving cassettes (1, 2) which are stacked one above another. Each cassette (1, 2) has a sheet sub-passge (34) penetrating the cassette from bottom to top. The sub-passages (34) are disposed such that they are positioned in alignment to form a common sheet feed passage penetrating the stack ...

A center-pull fiber package is provided in which a fibrous material (22) may be wound onto a core structure comprising a core element and an overwrap release paper (14). Upon removal of the center elements, an end of the fibrous material is exposed so that the package may be unwound by removing a predetermined length of the winding from the interior or center of the package.

The preparation of the solid gel electrolyte, which usually follows the pouring of the initially liquid sulphuric acid into the finished storage battery fitted with charged positive and negative electrodes, can be associated with the formation process by finally installing the still unformed plates (blanks), fitting the final current terminals (poles, pole bridges) and forming with a sulphuric aci...

An insertion device is used to introduce foil-like material, in particular paper or synthetic segments, between the slices cut by a cutting machine. Such slices are produced in particular in the food industry in the form of sausage, cheese or other food slices with cutting machines. In the insertion device a paper path is unwound from a paper roller and is carried into the cutting range of the cir...
