  • Patent number: 7320263
    Abstract: The invention relates to a controller and a method for controlling a maneuverable control object and comprising a control lever (1) designed to be manually maneuvered by an operator into various positions and a console (2) in which the control lever is pivotable about at least two intersecting pivot axes and in which the console is provided with a corresponding number of clamps (3, 4) swivel-mounted about their respective swivel axis (5, 6), which clamps are provided with slots (15, 16) through which the control lever (1) extends and along which the control lever can be led. Each clamp (3, 4) cooperates with its respective detention device (27, 28, 31, 32) for locking the associated clamp (3, 4) in at least one predefined detention position and hence limiting the movement of the control lever.

  • Patent number: 4913057
    Abstract: In an armor piercing explosive shell of the kind which comprises a hollow charge and an impact contact member placed in the nose cone of the shell to provide electrical contact for initiation of the hollow charge upon impact of the shell against the target, the nose cone of the shell is provided with a reinforced tip for mechanical penetration of the active armor and the impact contact member does not extend all the way to the tip but positioned behind an inner shoulder made in the wall of the nose cone to improve the penetrative performance of the shell against targets protected by active armor.

  • Patent number: 4840340
    Abstract: A telescopic brace assembly for supporting a work surface 1 which can be folded relative to a frame structure 5 includes two tubes 6,7 which are capable of being moved telescopically, one within the other, and the mutually opposite free ends of which are intended to be pivotally connected to a respective one of the objects. Arranged within the telescopic tubes is a spring 14 which biases the tubes together. The brace assembly further includes a locking arm 8 for releasably locking the tubes in a working position. The spring is arranged to be compressed as the tubes are extended one from the other, while storing energy. The extent to which the tubes can be withdrawn one from the other is determined by the extent to which the spring can be compressed.

  • Patent number: 4831936

To improve the penetrative performance of the shell against targets protected by active armor the nose cone of the shell is provided with a reinforced tip for mechanical penetration of the active armor and the impact contact member does not extend all the way to the tip of the shell so that upon impact of the shell against the active armor contact is obtained only after the reinforced tip has penetrated the active armor.

  • Patent number: 4696910
    Abstract: A catalyst element is described which is intended for use in a reactor for a chemical reaction where a lyophobic fluid is contacted with a lyophilic fluid for a reaction in the presence of catalyst in said element. The essential feature of the elements is that it is in the form of a porous lyophobic, e.g. hydrophobic, body which has a pore size essentially below 20 .mu.m, and is provided with a surface layer having a thickness of at most 100 .mu.m of lyophilic, e.g. hydrophilic, catalyst particles with a size essentially below 50 .mu.m, across part of its periphery only, said catalyst layer having been formed by sintering and/or pressing the catalyst particles into the porous lyophobic body.Preferable shapes of said catalyst element are a plate or a so-called packing element.Furthermore, a process for the preparation of said element is disclosed, which comprises adhering a surface layer of lyophilic catalyst to part of the periphery of a porous lyophobic body by sintering and/or pressing.
