Abstract: A transfer case for four-wheel-drive vehicles for distribution of the power from an input shaft through a transmission route to the rear propeller shaft and the front propeller shaft is shown. The transfer case is provided with a torque detection unit for detecting the torque on the input shaft side and is equipped also, on the transmission route between the rear propeller shaft side and the front propeller shaft side, a friction clutch whose coupling force is adjusted in accordance with the variations in the values of the torque detected by the torque detection unit.

Abstract: A distributor block for interconnecting a hose bundle to a control device of a pressure fluid control system in an underground mine working has internal passageways for connecting valves of the device to individual hoses. Bores in the block receive detachable elongate coupling members which themselves have internal bores and plugs for engaging in sockets within the control device. The coupling members are journalled in the block for slight transverse and angular movements within seals.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a snow tiller for rearmounting on a track maintenance vehicle. The snow tiller comprises a transmission for driving at least one tiller shaft, a carrier frame for mounting the snow tiller on the track maintenance vehicle, and a baffle body of trapezoidal cross-section extending over the width of the snow tiller. A levelling attachment is secured to the underside of the baffle body facing the track surface.With a view to facilitating repair and maintenance operations and replacement of wear components, the baffle body is formed as a tubular profile member forming a central tiller frame. The transmission is mounted at the center of the tiller frame and drives to tiller shafts laterally connected to the transmission. The ends of the tiller shafts facing away from the transmission are mounted in outer bearings secured to the ends of the tiller frame.
