This invention relates to a small amphibious vehicle with three retractable wheels in the form of a tricycle which is capable of easily moving in urban traffic because of the compactness of its road configuration and which is able to travel in water driven by a water jet at high speeds and despite being of exceptionally short horizontal length without the hazard of overturning when accelerating as...

The use of montmorillonite in the treatment of ground on which a soil structure stands in order to reduce the resistivity of the ground is described. More particularly excavations and/or boreholes in which dispersers are located are filled with bentonite, preferably containing montmorillonite, which when mixed with water is converted into a conducting gel which increases in volume, ensuring intima...

An exhaust gas aftertreatment device for internal combustion engines having a catalyzer for the selective catalytic reduction of oxides of nitrogen from exhaust gases of motor vehicle diesel engines, provides overstoichiometric supply of NH3 or materials releasing NH3. A first sensor records the NH3 concentration contained in the exhaust gas and interrupts the supply of the NH3 quantity when a spe...

A rotary actuator-operated pretensioner comprises a gas generator and a rotary actuator that is driven in rotation by pressurized gas supplied by the gas generator and drives a belt take-up reel. Annular flange portions extend from the cylinder side walls into the operating chamber, the flange portions being coaxial with the axis of rotation of the rotor, and the rotor is supported by the cylinder...

A rotary actuator 1 is driven in rotation by pressurized gas supplied by a gas generator 2 and drives a belt take-up reel (R9, Fig 2). A partition wall 112 that separates the pressure section 102A of the operating chamber 102 from the exhaust section 102B receives a seal member 13, which is resiliently urged by a spring 14 into engagement with the body portion (122, Fig 3) of rotor 12. The seal me...
