An auxiliary speed change mechanism (10) disposed within a rear portion of a tractor clutch housing (1) is supported by a support frame (11) comprising axially spaced front and rear bearing support plate members (11a, 11b) which are integrally connected by upper and lower connecting plate members (11c, 11d). The change mechanism includes two sets of constant-mesh gears (8, 9, 12, 13) and is operat...

A changeable traversing module for a winding machine for winding endless filaments comprises a housing, which rests on a supporting element 88 provided in the machine. The housing and the element have interlocking parts (part 92 on the element), which form a guide for the module upon introduction into the machine and also interact to hold the module in a predetermined position with respect to the ...

An apparatus for controlling the distribution of drive power in a motor vehicle includes a pair of pressure regulating valves, a pair of regulated pressure passages interconnecting the pressure regulating valves, respectively, and torque transmission clutches which transmit drive power to a pair of drive wheels, and a shut-off valve mechanism disposed between the regulated pressure passages for se...

PURPOSE:To enable an expert worker to effectively perform working at fixed speed by securing such a constitution where only a main clutch is turned off at a 1st clutch OFF position of a control lever and a neutral reset mechanism is actuated at a 2nd clutch OFF position and in a main clutch OFF state. CONSTITUTION:A control lever 20 of a main clutch can be operated forward and backward in the orde...

PURPOSE:To ensure high braking efficiency by locking a rear wheel differential gear when an anti-lock state is conditioned on a split mu road surface under a four wheel drive. CONSTITUTION:When a right front wheel FR running on a low mu road surface is going to be locked with the brake applied, a system including both the right front wheel FR and a left rear wheel RL fall into an anti-skid control...

In anti-skid control system for motor vehicles of the type that the drive system of the motor vehicle is switchable to direct-coupled 4WD system, brake pressure reduction starting points in the anti-skid control are set up to come earlier when the drive system of the motor vehicle is switched to the direct-coupled 4WD system than when said drive system is other than the direct-coupled 4WD system.

In a traction control system for motor vehicles, a lower limit for throttle opening degree command with respect to each gear position of transmission is set up, and when the transmission is shifted up, the throttle opening degree command is decreased down to the lower limit for throttle opening degree command corresponding to the gear position assumed through the shift-up operation.

PURPOSE:To improve a discharge capacity by using polyolefin type synthetic pulp sheets, which are addition polymerized with a multifunctional hydrophilic monomer, as an inner-layer material of a cathode plate or a surface-layer material of the cathode plate. CONSTITUTION:By coating with a paste-like active substance 3 containing lead oxide and sulfuric acid on both sides and holding at a pressed s...

Bridging caused by rock jammed in a chute (16, Fig 1) of a crusher (10) is freed by operation of a door member (34) inset in a wall of the chute and carried by a frame (32) movably mounted on a pair of toggle links (36, 38) and a locating link (40) under the action of a hydraulic cylinder (42). The toggle action produces plane parallel motion of the door (34) and also provides self-locking. Prefer...

The blowing agent is a complex of cyclodextrin and guest blowing agent. Suitable guest blowing agents include water, propylene glycol and cyclohexylalamine. The blowing agent is used in structural foam and adhesives.

Methods and devices for medical use such as ostomy and wound healing having excellent chloride-free odor barrier properties are disclosed. It has been found that laminates incorporating ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymers are useful in providing an excellent barrier to odor and moisture without sacrificing softness and noise characteristics important to, for example, ostomy devices. The EVOH ...

Splicing machine, in particular for the overlapped splicing of cord band strips of steel or textile cord, in which a strip (45) is conveyed by a conveyor belt (2) up to the edge of the spliced cord band (37) and is bonded to the latter by moving together between an upper splicing bar (13) and a lower splicing box (14), having a first correcting device, by means of which the upper splicing bar and ...

The invention concerns a method in reeling of a paper or board web in a drum reel-up or equivalent, in which, when a paper or board reel (R) formed on a reel spool (11) becomes complete, a new reel spool (11') is brought by means of transfer members (32) into a stand-by position and accelerated up to the web speed, the reel spool (11) with the reel (R) is transferred by means of a transfer device ...

A cache system buffers data stored in a main memory (11) and utilized by a processor (12). The cache system includes a first cache (23), a second cache (14), first transfer means (26,10), second transfer means (25,26,10), third transfer means, and an access means. The first cache (23) is fully associative. The second cache (14) is directly mapped. The first transfer means (26,10) transfers data li...

The adapter (10<3>) supports a closed centrifuge tube within a cavity of a vertical angle centrifuge rotor and comprises two adapter segments (12<3>,14<3>) forming a recess corresponding to the size and shape of the entire length of the centrifuge tube able to be disposed therein.
