Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a machine for cutting off leads of specific length from electric wire and for processing and equipping the ends of the wire leads. The machine comprises an endless conveyor which bears pairs of close-set clamps and a paying-out station for the wire which pays out the latter tangentially to the conveyor. Cams cause the clamps of each pair to pivot by a quarter revolution in reverse direction from one another. A balance rod forms in the wire situated between two clamps, loops of specific length.

Abstract: According to this process, after separating the cap and the body of the capsule, a bead of viscous adhesive is deposited inside this cap and at a certain distance from the edge thereof, and there is introduced into the body of the capsule the dose of product to be packed, then the body thus filled is fitted into the cap thus prepared. In a preferred embodiment of the process, before fitting the body of the capsule into the cap thereof and during this fitting together, the atmosphere bathing the inside and the outside of the capsule is given a predetermined composition.

Abstract: A continuous transport system characterized in that the vehicles providing passenger or goods transportation are passive vehicles without self-contained motors or braking devices, the drive for these vehicles when formed into trains being provided between stations by a head locomotive and a tail locomotive.

Abstract: The invention consists a device for feeding automatic continuous process (kinematic) machines for the manufacture of glass objects characterized in that it comprises a turning feeder integral with the drum of the machine.

Abstract: The invention consists an automatic continuous process (kinematic) machine for the manufacture of glass objects characterized in that it comprises, between the blanking drum and the finishing drum, a sliding beam whose sliding motion enables the time period between the vehicles leaving the blanking drum and their entry into the finishing drum to be regulated instantly and precisely while the machine is in operation.

Abstract: A continuously circulating work processing conveyor comprising at least one processing drum of which peripheral compartments receive work carriages, each work carriage being linked to the following work carriage by a connection of which the length between any two consecutive carriages is always substantially the same and which is disposed so that the various carriages can be oriented differently from one another about axes perpendicular to their plane of advance.

Abstract: A method for producing cores and foundry moulds.The method is characterized in that foundry sand, a binder, and a low temperature reaction agent are mixed in a controlled atmosphere, and in that the mixture is maintained under these low temperature and controlled atmosphere conditions until it is introduced into the core box, the temperature and atmospheric control are then eliminated and the temperature raised slightly if necessary.
