A transmission includes a hydrodynamic transmission, such as a torque convertor or a fluid coupling, connectable to a drive source and driving an infinitely variable V-belt transmission having primary and secondary pulleys each constructed of two conical pulley discs. The drive ratio of the V-belt transmission is controlled by a pressure cylinder which adjusts the axial position of one of the pull...

A machine for slicing slabs of cheese, sausage or the like comprises a feeding mechanism which supports the slab, feeds it intermittently at an inclination to the horizontal and includes a slab-supporting conveyor belt and gripping claws for holding the back of the slab. The conveyor belt runs over freely rotatable direction-changing rollers and on both sides of the conveyor belt parallel to the u...

PURPOSE:To detect surely, quantitatively abnormalities such as a defect of a high voltage power source, dirt of an electrified wire, and disconnection, by detecting the output voltage of the high voltage power source, the current between an electrifier and an object to be electrified, and the current in the electrifier. CONSTITUTION:Abnormalities of a high voltage power source 61 and the electrifi...

PURPOSE:To prepare a porous material having open-cell structure and high accuracy of the average pore diameter, by casting an emulsion slip composed of a specific curing agent component, a bisphenol-type epoxy resin, a filler and water, into a mold, and curing and dehydrating the slip. CONSTITUTION:An emulsion slip is prepared by vigorously agitating a mixture of (A) a curing agent consisting of a...

A coated rubber cord comprising a core member coated with a woven cover material in the texture of which a single or a plurality of rubber strings are mixedly woven.

PURPOSE:To execute efficiently a vector instruction train without logical discrepancy by changing the set value at decoding of a vector length change instruction at the beginning and changing the set value after the end of the execution of the instruction. CONSTITUTION:A data corresponding to an instruction is set to a register 15. The data in the register 15 has a part representing the length of ...

PURPOSE:To use a host computer and a terminal computer multiplexedly at the same in the form of conversation, by using both host and terminal command systems with a common command interface in a decentralized computer system. CONSTITUTION:A terminal computer comprising a terminal CPU102, a main storage 103, and an auxiliary storage 104 in a time division system TSS of a decentralized computer syst...

The described paging system is capable of effectively transmitting and receiving message codes without adversely affecting the paging code (especially address code) reception probability. The paging receiver comprises a receiver device (1, 2, 3) for receiving a paging code including a first code having a first transmission rate, a second code having a second transmission rate and a discrimina...

PURPOSE:To facilitate the attachment of a heat pipe and charging of a prescribed amount of work liquid and to enable a composite container to keep an internal pressure corresponding to the temperature, by employing such an arrangement that vapor of the work liquid can be passed freely through the inside of the composite container through a metal tube having a small diameter. CONSTITUTION:Unit cont...

A method used in the preparation prior to processing of flatfish relates to the aligning and exactly positioned further guiding of the same up to a processing station. The flatfish is positioned by catching behind the edge of one of its gill covers resp. shoulder girdle arcs and is also aligned with regard to the position of its longitudinal axis e.g. by being pushed under a holding down element a...

A method and apparatus for compacting strands of shirred casing by applying substantially equal and opposite forces simultaneously to both ends of the strand. In one embodiment this double-ended simultaneous compaction is achieved by compacting the strand about a sliding sleeve and against a restraint so that movement of a compaction arm against only one end of the strand will cause the sleeve to ...

A lubricating oil feedstock is solvent-refined by placing it in contact with N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (I), which selectively extracts aromatics. This produces an extract phase rich in aromatics contg. a major amt. of (I) and a non-aromatic raffinate phase contg. a minor amt. of (I). The improvement is that residual solvent (remaining after solvent removal by flash vaporization, distn. and/or recti...
