Abstract: A vehicle having a four-wheel-drive system including an auxiliary portion that has an auxiliary driveshaft and drive means between the auxiliary driveshaft arranged to releasably connect a second group of wheels to the driveline via a releasable torque transmitting device. The releasable torque transmitting device is operable to allow slippage of the input portion with respect to the output portions, thereby to vary an amount of torque that is transmitted to the second group of wheels.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a vehicle (100) comprising: prime mover means (111); a first group (112, 113) of one or more wheels; a second group (114, 115) of two or more wheels; and a driveline (105) to connect the prime mover means (111) to the first (112, 113) and second (114, 115) groups of wheels such that the first group (112, 113) of one or more wheels may be driven by the prime mover means (111) when the driveline (105) is in a first mode of operation and the second group (114,115) of wheels may additionally be driven by the prime mover means (111) when the driveline (105) is in a second mode of operation, the driveline (105) including an auxiliary driveline (110) comprising an auxiliary driveshaft (123) and drive means (125) between the auxiliary driveshaft (123) and the second group (114,115) of wheels, the drive means (125) having: an input portion; a plurality of output portions each operable to drive a respective different wheel of the second group (114, 115) of wheels; a first re

Abstract: A tape holding device that holds and protects a microcassette. The tape holding device includes a pair of opposing rails, a stop tab and a retention button for securing the microcassette to the device. The device further includes a pair of upper holes through which a clip can be inserted to secure the tape holding device to a file folder. The tape holding device also includes side holes that allow the device to be inserted onto two rings of a three-ring binder. The tape holding device further includes a groove that allows the device to be flexed up and provides a recess for accepting a binder clip. The tape holding device also includes retention flights so that allow a rubber band to secure the device to a file folder. The tape holding device further includes a message area.
