  • Patent number: 9952018
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for event representation in duel shooting. Known devices have the disadvantage that, in order to practice duel shooting, it is always necessary to modify a shooting range. The aim of the invention is to create a device for duel shooting which does not require complicated modification of a shooting range. This aim is achieved according to the invention in that a visualizing unit is provided for representing events, which is positionable within the range of perception of the marksman's eye.

  • Patent number: 9513099
    Abstract: A device and method of checking wear on roller chains enables a quantitative statement to be made about the state of wear of a fitted roller chain. A device for tensioning a portion of the roller chain with a defined measuring load and a device for measuring the spacing between a given number of chain links are provided, the device for measuring the spacing having two contact pins, each of which is configured for positioning between two rivet heads or on a rivet head of a link plate, and a device for measuring and displaying the distance between the two contact pins. An accurate, quantitative measurement of the wear on a roller chain in the fitted state is obtained quickly and easily.

  • Patent number: 7412773
    Abstract: According to the invention, in order to control the vehicle geometry of a chain or belt driven vehicle, chain alignment of the secondary drive is determined by means of a laser module (1) which is placed on the lateral surface of the chain wheel or the belt pulley and whose the laser beam is directed to the edge area of the chain or belt. Wheel alignment can also be determined, by arranging two pairs of circular segment shaped calibres (11), which are pressed flat against each other by pressing means (12) on each side of the rim of at least one back wheel and on at least one front wheel of the vehicle, and by emitting parallel laser beams (17) on both sides of one of the calibre pairs to the other calibre pair (17), the laser beams impacting measuring devices (13) which are arranged on both sides of the other pair of calibres. The dimensional accuracy of the swing and the front wheel fork can also be determined in a similar manner.
