Abstract: The invention relates to a device for connecting cable wires to cutting/clamping contacts of dropwire connector banks of telecommunication sytems by means of a press-in tool provided with guide and press-in pieces and an actuating face. In order to allow a connection of a dropwire cable wire that thick insulation jacket in one single operation step to a cutting/clamping contact of the dropwire connector bank, the actuating face of the press-in tool is formed as an application body immediately adjacent to the guide and press-in pieces for a striking or lever tool, in particular a screwdriver. By exerting a striking or lever force on the press-in tool, a dropwire cable wire can, thus, be connected in one single operation step to a cutting/clamping contact of a dropwire connector bank. In a further embodiment of the invention, the press-in tool is formed as a part of the closing plug and serves for the fixation of the thin cable wires in dropwire connector banks.

The inner housing is adjustable relative to the outer housing in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction, each by given amounts. Each adjustment is made via a turnable pinion acting upon a rack of a first intermediate member. The adjustment of the inner housing relative to the outer housing is achieved via the intermediate members, each of which is retained in one direction.

Abstract: In the production of a desired musical waveform by combining harmonic components corresponding to respective harmonic orders, each harmonic component value is controlled by a selected cut-off harmonic order qc, level Ha and slope of the formant filter characteristic. The cut-off harmonic order qc, the level Ha and the slope values can each be varied over a predetermined range. Therefore, the slope values of the formant filter characteristic are interpolated to raise resolution, by which it is possible to prevent an abrupt change in the formant filter characteristic and suppress the generation of noise.

Abstract: A lawn and bush cutting device comprises a housing mounted for rotation about an axis with a drive shaft fixed to the housing and drivable by a motor for rotating the housing. A wire cylinder is coaxially mounted in the housing and can be held fixed with respect to the housing for rotation therewith. A supply of cutting wire is wound on the wire cylinder, or on a reel rotatably fixed to the wire cylinder. A length of the wire extends out of the housing to act as a cutting tool when the housing rotates. A sleeve member is axially movable in the housing and has helical coupling piece which are coupled to helical piece in the cylinder. Axial movement of the sleeve thus causes relative rotation between the wire cylinder and housing, thus paying out additional lengths of wire from the housing. A ring is axially moveable but rotationally fixed to the sleeve and can be moved downwardly by cable operated member.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving the grinding result of a pressure chamber grinder includes a feeder for feeding material into a pressurized equalizing tank, then transferring the material into a pre-grinder where the material is fluidized by grinding-gas jets.
