Abstract: The apparatus for driving a divider element which is slidable linearly and/or in curves, and being optionally rotatable and parkable, comprises a drive assembly which is guided by two running wheels on a running surface of a rail, which drive assembly has a drive shaft driven by an electric motor and a gearing, the drive shaft being coupled by a toothed gear to a toothed belt connected to the rail, and which drive assembly is connectable by a load shaft to the divider element.

Abstract: The function of the device is to lock, manually or automatically, separative elements which are mounted so as to be rotatably and/or laterally movable, specifically, doors, windows, partitions, shutters and coverings, which have a base profile which serves to accommodate a support device by which a locking element is retained, which element may be shifted between an unlock position and a lock position in which the locking element engages a receptacle fixed outside the base profile. According to an aspect of the invention, the function of the support device is to support a lever which is provided with the locking element and a head-piece enabling operation in such a way that this lever is retained in a rotatable fashion and is able to be detachably fixed in at least one first position corresponding to the unlock position, and possibly in a second position corresponding to the lock position.

Abstract: Normally, compressed air coupling plugs lock inside a coupling housing. Decoupling must consequently occur by releasing said plugs counter to the friction forces existing between the plug and the housing. This requires force and the plug may not relieved of pressure when decoupled. The invention works with a locking element (2) which is mounted in a coupling housing (1). The plug (5) and the locking element (2) are provided with reciprocally corresponding locking means (24, 52; 28, 56) whereby the locking element (2) can be pivoted for decoupling without the plug (5) pressing on the housing (1), thereby enabling large caliber tubing, such as those used with construction compressors, to be coupled by hand without tools.

Abstract: A male die shaft is mounted in a longitudinally movable and rotary manner in a casing. A lever engages on the said shaft. By means of a motor driven cam, the lever is pivoted. By means of a coupling operable by a shift lever and by means of a gear, a tensioning wheel is motor-driven for tensioning the strip. The male die shaft is held in the raised position by a stop member operated by a stop lever. The shift lever and the stop lever are part of a control mechanism pivotably mounted on a shaft and which is operated by a feeler lever. As a result, the coupling and stop member are released and the male die shaft is lowered onto the strip ends. By means of a lever driven by a cam, male die shaft performs a pivoting movement transmitted via a tooth wheel drive to a shaft which imparts an oppositely directed pivotal movement onto a female die located in the base plate. The movement resulting from the pivoting movement of the strip portions produces the frictional heat necessary for welding purposes.
