Abstract: An insulation stripping tool for flat cables includes a clamping device adapted to be clamped to a flat cable and to provide a linear guide edge for guiding a knife holder to accurately sever the outer insulation sheath of the cable in a transverse direction. Upon removal of the clamping device from the cable, the knife holder is inserted into a chamber contained in the clamping device with the knife edge protruding from the chamber, whereupon a curved side of the flat cable is inserted within first guide grooves contained in the clamping device, and the clamping device is displaced circumferentially of the cable to sever the curved cable side transversely of the cable. The curved cable side is then inserted into a second pair of grooves contained in the clamping device, and the knife holder is displaced longitudinally to sever the insulation sheath longitudinally of the cable.

Abstract: A valve for a gas vessel has a gas-pressure line which leads to a valve chamber and which is closed by means of a closure valve disposed in the valve chamber. The valve for a gas vessel also includes a gas-takeoff line and is configured so that the valve chamber and the gas-takeoff line as well as other gas conducting spaces at the output end of the valve can be purged in the operational ready condition of the valve. The application and removal of the purging flow occurs over different paths and the purging takes place independently of the actuation of the closure valve. For this purpose, a purging line which is equipped with a purging valve is provided. The purging line opens in the valve chamber of the closure valve.
