  • Patent number: 9707691
    Abstract: Conduit cutting tools and conduit cutting tool operational methods are described. According to one aspect, a conduit cutting tool includes a pivot pin, a pair of elongated members coupled with the pivot pin, and wherein the elongated members include a jaw and a handle and interior portions of the jaws include cutting blades, wherein the jaws are spaced apart from one another in an open configuration to receive a conduit and one of the elongated members is configured to move with respect to an other of the elongated members as a result of an input force to the handles, and wherein the movement of the one elongated member rotates the jaw of the one elongated member towards the jaw of the other elongated member and moves the jaw of the one elongated member in a substantially linear direction towards the jaw of the other elongated member.

  • Publication number: 20100251114
    Abstract: A digital interface has a main screen having a treatment screen and a scroll bar. The treatment screen includes a list of treatment inputs. The scroll bar has a displacement detection area, and the scroll bar scrolls to a divider in the list of treatment inputs in response to movement along the displacement detection area. The treatment screen displays the list of treatment inputs beginning with the divider.

  • Patent number: 5044909
    Abstract: In a rotary compressor of a cooling or heat pump system, the inner volume relation should be related in a predetermined way to the pressure relation of the compressor for an optimal efficiency to be achieved. The built-in volume relation must therefore be variable to be adapted, for example, to full load and partial load. In order to achieve the highest efficiency with respect to loading requirements, a valve device has been developed, in which the outlet port is formed in such a way as to substantially correspond to the theoretically correct radial outlet port and in which a valve body (13) adapted for the purpose has its line of action oriented towards the outlet plane.

  • Patent number: 4618272
    Abstract: A device for fixing a shaft journalled in a roller bearing, in an axial direction of the shaft, comprising a resilient element which presses the bearing against a supporting surface of a bearing housing and provides a measure of radial adjustment of the shaft in the housing. The fixing device also includes a screw-threaded member, which in its screwed-in position limits axial movement of the roller bearing.

  • Patent number: 4565508
    Abstract: A device for controlling the volumetric capacity of a screw compressor having two rotors, which are in meshing engagement with each other, in a compression chamber enclosed in a housing, in which there is also arranged a bore in parallel with the rotors, the bore being connected to the compression chamber through a number of channels distributed axially in the bore, a plunger being arranged to be movably guided in the bore as volume control is effected. Depending on the position of the plunger in the bore, the number of the channels covered thereby varies. The plunger is hollow and has an opening at one end through which a rod fixed in the bore passes, the rod carrying a piston sealingly engaging the inside surface of the plunger. At its other end, the plunger is closed by an end wall. The position of the plunger in the bore is adjusted by the supply of a control medium, such as oil, which influences both sides of the end wall. Any volatile refrigerant, such as R.sub.22 or R.sub.
