PURPOSE:To prevent unbalance in degree of vulcanization, by providing a heat insulation layer whose thermal conductivity is low and whose thermal expansion coefficient is less than a specific value on the inside of a mold in a vulcanizing mold which has been formed of a material having aluminum for its main ingredient and the thermal expansion coefficient of more than the specific value. CONSTITUT...

PURPOSE:To easily complete assembling a multiple disc clutch by bringing an end plate into contact with the end portion of a boss portion to keep an input gear from projecting so that a gap is formed. CONSTITUTION:An input gear 8 is turned a little to bring an end plate 29 into contact with the end portion of a boss portion 20 to keep the input gear 8 from projecting over a clutch housing 16. Ther...

Beim streifenweisen Verlegen von Bandmaterial wird das zwischen einer Trägerschicht (3) und einer Deckschicht (2) eingebettete Bandmaterial (1) zuerst in einer Schneidstation (4) vorbereitet und anschließend über einen Legekopf (11) verlegt, wobei in der Schneidstation (4) das von einer Spenderrolle (18) abgezogene Bandmaterial (1) nach Abnahme der Deckschicht (2) und ohne ein Durchtrennen der Trä...

A torque distribution control system for a four-wheel drive vehicle has an engine output controller (22) which controls the output of the engine of the vehicle, a braking controller (25) which separately controls the braking forces applied to the left wheels and the right wheels and/or the braking forces applied to the front wheels and the rear wheels. A torque distribution changing system (26) de...

A centrifugal separation apparatus comprises a rotatable cylindrical member (136) including a side perforated wall and an opened bottom and a bottom lid member (138) including a central raised portion and a side wall inclined downwardly and outwardly. The bottom lid member (138) is moveable between an upper position in which said bottom lid member (138) is engaged by the lower end face of said cyl...

A housing for a scrap-shredding apparatus is described. The housing contains an inlet opening (6) provided with at least one assigned anvil (7), an outlet opening (9) leading to an outlet (10), a floor (11) arranged essentially below the rotor (1) and extending from the inlet opening (6) to the outlet opening (9), a top cover (17) arranged essentially above the rotor (1), extended from the outlet ...

The present invention mainly solves the problem of available solar energy machines, which are high-cost and low-efficiency and cannot work directly. The solar-energy machine produced based on temp. difference principle is realized by means of the temp. difference between solar energy collector and the water and air. In it, the low-boiling point heat exchanger expands when heated and condenses when...

LEAD-ACID BATTERY ELECTRODE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE Positive plates are prepared by forming partially oxidized tetrabasic lead sulfate (4 PbOn - PbSO4) having at least a part of the oxide (PbOn) portion in the form of alpha lead dioxide (.alpha. - PbO2), and forming beta lead dioxide (B-PbO2). Next the oxidized tetrabasic lead sulfate (OXYTTB) and the beta lead dioxide are intermingled in a wet ...

In a tire mold having a plurality of mold parts radially separable about cooperating surface. Each of the mold parts includes a surface defining at least a portion of a cavity for shaping a tire. The tire mold part further includes a plurality of pockets for defining a respective plurality of tread elements in a circumferential array on the tire. The improvement comprises a vacuum source in fluid ...

Rigid mould for moulding rubber tyres, constituted by a core 3 for defining the inner shape of the tyre, lateral portions 2 and a ring 1 of sectors. So as to be able to close such a mould, all the parts are designed to slide over each other during the final phase of their closing movement.

A colorant formulation is described for mass-coloring high-melting polyesters. It comprises colorant and support for the colorant. The colorant formulation has a recrystallization exotherm of 8 to 55 joule/g between 210 DEG C. and 150 DEG C.

A disposable, inexpensive electrode for an electrochemical sensor includes a laminated anode and a laminated cathode. The anode is a film substrate with anodic material such as platinum deposited on the substrate. The cathode is also a film substrate with cathodic material such as silver deposited on the substrate. The anode and cathode can be laminated with an intermediate layer of dielectric mat...

An article having side holes 11, e.g. a spacer 10 for a central heating radiator, is made of compacted particulate material in a die comprising a plate 1 having a vertical cavity 2, a top punch 7 and a bottom punch 4. An inner core rod 3 forms a central passageway in the spacer 10 and side core rods 6 form the side holes 11. The density of the compacted material defining the side holes 11 is highe...
