PURPOSE:To reduce the speed-change shock on shift-down by permitting the shift to a low-speed shift when it is detected that an operating brake is in operation and the number of engine revolution is below a prescribed number of revolution when the speed change ratio is within a high-speed ratio. CONSTITUTION:In an automatic speed change gear in which a manual speed change gear 3 provided with 4-st...

PURPOSE:To reduce the speed-change shock on shift-down by permitting the shift to a low-speed shift when a car speed is below a prescribed speed and the number of engine revolution is below a prescribed number of revolution when the speed change ratio is within a high-speed ratio. CONSTITUTION:In an automatic speed change gear in which a manual speed change gear 3 provided with 4-stages for advanc...

PURPOSE:To prevent the knocking after shift-up by estimating the engine speed after the shift-up from the number of engine revolution within the range of low- speed ratio and performing shift-up when the estimated number of revolution is outside a knocking region. CONSTITUTION:In an automatic speed change gear in which a manual speed change gear 3 provided with 4-stages for advance and one-stage f...

PURPOSE:To improve drivability by performing shift-up when the low opening-degree of a throttle valve continues for a prescribed time during the traveling with a low- speed ratio and performing shift-down when the high opening-degree of the throttle valve continues for a prescribed time during the traveling with a high-speed ratio. CONSTITUTION:In an automatic speed change gear in which a manual s...

PURPOSE:To prevent the generation of super high-speed revolution after shift- down by performing the shift-down to a low-speed ratio when the number of engine revolution is less than a prescribed high number of revolution when the speed-change ratio is within the range of high-speed ratio. CONSTITUTION:In an automatic speed change gear in which a manual speed change gear 3 provided with 4-stages f...

The hammer mill for treating scrap metal including a rotary hammer means for delivering impact blows to scrap metal is shown. Discharge grates are provided for disposing of the scrap metal through discharge outlets for the hammer mill. The rotor is a disc type with rotating hammers located on pins extending through the discs. A plurality of caps are circumferentially located around each disc and a...

A centrifuge for separation of two liquid phases of different specific gravities to be removed separately; the separation chamber has a first subset of openings communicating with a skimmer and a second subset of openings communication with a collector. In one position, a movable barrier plate covers the inner portion of the first subset and the outer portion of the second subset to direct the hea...

1. Support for a radiation source (2A) of multiple orientation associated in operation with a radiology table (4) situated transversely to a horizontal axis y-y, comprising : - a radiation source (2A) equipped with movement means (15) and associated in operation with at least one detector (3) for said radiation, - first means permitting a first movement of said support (1) in a plane transverse to...

A support appliance is provided which is adapted to be supported on a bed frame and comprises a plurality of elongated inflatable air sacs (1). The air sacs (1) are mounted in groups, and extend transversely of the appliance so as to provide a surface for supporting a person thereon. The appliance has a series of connected box-shaped housings (A to E), each housing being associated with a group of...

In order to improve the sensitivity and the spectral resolution in measuring the luminescence of diverse sample materials, adapted optical imaging relationships at variable excitation output are provided for the different optical paths of the luminescence light emitted by the sample material. An excitation bundle of rays which can be stopped down and the central beam of the secondary beam which em...

By the vapor phase reaction of benzene or a monoalkylbenzene with an alkylating agent in the presence of a specific catalyst obtained by subjecting a zeolite to a treatment with a gas containing a silicic acid ester and then a calcination in an oxygen-containing gas, said zeolite being 10 or more with respect to its molar ratio of SiO2/X2O3 in which X is at best one member selected from the group ...

Device for effecting a sampling of a conical shaped fragment of the cervix uteri tissue by means of a blade (61) shaped as a flexible ribbon. The blade has one end which is appropriate for insertion into the channel (M) of the cervix uteri and carrying a cutting rod (48) which may be imparted with a reciprocating radial motion. At the other end, the blade has a retainer (65) extending radially of ...

There are provided low temperature, storage stable, liquid mixtures of (1) isocyanato-containing prepolymers obtained from the reaction of linear and/or slightly branched polyols and a polyisocyanate characterized by a methylene group (CH2) bonded to two benzenoid nuclei, and (2) a non-hydroxyl-containing flow modifier which is compatible with the said prepolymer. Novel liquid mixtures thus prepar...

A multisensor of the vibrating- mass type comprises accelerometers (10, 12) mounted in parallel beam suspensions with their input axes (22, 24) substantially colinear. Forces are applied to the accelerometers through piezoelectric elements mounted to the suspensions to induce vibration so that coriolis rate information is included in the output of the system. Output circuitry discriminates between...
