Abstract: A zipper for closing the mouth of a bag that is formed by a groove on an internal face of tape, on one side, and a rib to be fitted to the groove on another internal face of the tape, on the other side. A bonding agent layer is provided on the outer side of the respective tapes and pastes a parting pattern paper on the outside of these bonding agent layers. This zipper, even if it is made of a substance which lacks heat sealing properties between the inner face of the bag and the zipper, can be attached easily to the inside mouth of the bag by pasting up the bonding agent covered by the parting pattern paper, to the inner face of mouth of the bag, by stripping the said parting pattern paper.

Abstract: The process comprises the steps of creating three reference points at an object and taking a tomogram of the object such that the three reference points define a first set of positional data in the tomogram. The object is then non-rigidly placed on a support for operation thereupon by an instrument which is mounted at a flexible arm containing sensors for sensing the movements of an instrument tip. The instrument tip is placed at the three reference points in order to create a second set of positional data which are in a fixed relationship to the first set of positional data. When the instrument is inserted into the object placed on the support, the positional data of the instrument tip during the insertion movement are sensed and related to the first set of positional data via the fixed relationship between the first and second sets of positional data.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a tubular heat exchanger for operation at high gas temperature and high pressures with heat exchanger tubes, which are coiled on the greater section of their linear extension. Further, the tube bottoms have tie rods, which brace the tube bottoms. The tie rods (3) of a graduated circle (1a, 1b) are connected at several points in the longitudinal direction by rings (5) into a cage. The tie rods (3) are flattened (3a) in the area of the rings (5). The tubes arranged on the adjacent graduated circle are connected to one another in the coiled area (2a) by means of angular plates (4) in pairs in the area of the rings (5). The connection to the angular plates (4) is such that, the tube form a hollow-cylinder-shaped tube cage. At least three guiding plates (6, 6a) are arranged in each area of uncoiled tubes (2b).

A fixed annular sinkers housing is provided including a fixed cam profile to control radial movement of the high-nosed sinkers. The cam profile has an area of centrifugal retraction substantially symmetrical with respect to a feeding position of the high yarn guide and the lower yarn guide. An angularly mobile annular sinkers housing is provided for controlling radial movement of the low-nosed sinkers.

Abstract: A lamp assembly, particularly used for a Christmas lamp string, having mainly a shade or shield at a first end, a hood with cover at a second end and an inter-connector joining in between the shield and the hood and serves to retain a lamp bulb with or without a socket. The socket is provided with self-contained conductor wires and fastening tab(s), single sided or double sided to be snap-locked by flap(s) disposed correspondingly on the inter-connector. When the inter-connector takes a bulb without socket, the bulb is inserted directly into the inter-connector where terminals of a pair of conductor wires are spacedly disposed to be electrically contacted with the blub base tightly inserted.

Abstract: A semi-trailer dump trailer having a very long dump body supported by a middle axle bearing wheels is described. The dump body bottom frame, the rear support frame member and the front beam member form an articulated quadrilateral support frame assembly that can be folded down on itself. Such a semi-trailer is capable of handling an increased capacity, both structurally and legally without exceeding the maximum axle load permitted.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lower arm bracket mounting structure, wherein when the lower arm bracket of the suspension is fixed on the lower surface of the vehicle body member by means of bolts, a stem portion is provided at the base portion of said bolt and a hole is defined through said vehicle member, said hole being engaging with the stem portion of said bolt, whereas a threaded hole into which said bolt is threadably inserted is defined in the tip end of the hole.

Abstract: An elastic sliding bearing for vehicle parts in motor vehicles, a rigid inner bushing (1) rotatably arranged in an outer bushing (2), and this is arranged in an elastomeric body (3) firmly adhering to the outer bushing. Both bushings have, at least at an axially outer end, axial bearing surfaces (8, 9) at one radially directed flange projection (7, 10) each. The flange projection (10) associated with the outer bushing is axially movably arranged in relation to this outer bushing (2) while an elastomeric intermediate member (11) undergoes elastic deformation.

Abstract: A magnetic latchkey for an access-control lock with a series of magnets fastened to sliding pieces capable of being displaced by means of levers or extensions so that each magnet has three possible positions: north pole, south pole, or a point intermediate to both. This allows the magnet to be moved in front of the appropriate sensor of the lock, in such a way that when there is a particular combination of poles in the latchkey and the same combination of switches on the control panel, in touch with the position of the switches at the control panel will be identical to the positions of the levers of the latchkey. An alternative is for each magnet of the latchkey to have two sensors inside the lock.

Abstract: A forage compaction apparatus including a three point based chassis to contact the floor, that supports a hopper in its front end. The apparatus forming a tunnel in the rear end while housing a compacting rotor and retainer bars in the chamber between the front and rear ends. The forage is admitted into the hopper and packed into the tunnel by the effect of the rotor and associated retainer comb. These are designed specifically to create forces directed upwards and backwards in order to compact evenly the forage into an agricultural bag that closes the exit of the tunnel in the rearmost end of the apparatus. The apparatus has a power transmission system and controls forward movement by braking the machine while compacting so that as the machine packs forage, pressure is built in a special way into the tunnel and agricultural bag so that the bag is unfolded in the field as the machine moves forward.
