Abstract: A rail (100, 100?) is formed with ends (102, 104) configured so that they can be placed together and mounted to the post (P) of a fencing system. A breakaway feature (122, 124, 126) permits the rail to break free of the post (P) when a threshold level of force is applied to the rail. Two adapters (200) can be attached to a stock rail (R) to form a breakaway rail.
Abstract: The invention relates to a gap seal (6) for sealing a gap (3) between two adjacent components (1, 2), in particular of turbo machines, with the following characteristics: each component (1) has one each groove (7) that is open towards the gap (3), the two grooves (7) are essentially facing each other in the gap (3), in each groove (7), a compensation body (16) is movably positioned transversely to the longitudinal groove direction and parallel to the gap plane (10), each compensation body (11) abuts the groove bottom (9) of the corresponding groove (7) in a sealing manner, each compensation body (11) has a V-shaped receiving groove (14) that is open towards the facing compensation body (11), a mutual sealing body (16) has a rhombus-shaped cross-section and projects with outer sides (17) into both receiving grooves (14), the straight inner sides (15) of each receiving groove (14) are angled towards each other at the same angle as the straight outer sides (17), in each receiving groove (14), at least one out

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (12) for tensioning a winding (9) of a stator (1), in particular a generator stator (1) of a power plant. The winding (9) includes a winding head (10). Several winding supports (13) are arranged at the front side (4) of the core (2). Each winding support (13) abuts against the front side (4) of the core (2) and via a pressure spring element (19) against the funnel-shaped outer side (14) of the winding head (10). The winding supports (13) are fixed at the winding head (10) in the circumferential direction and in the surface line direction of the winding head (10). The winding supports (13) are movable perpendicularly with respect to the outer side (14).
