Abstract: The present invention relates to a motorcycle anti-tipover device that has telescoping support arms that extend to the ground. The support arms are automatically extending when the motorcycle is stationary or moving at low speeds to prevent the motorcycle from tipping over. The telescoping support arms may also serve as a traditional kickstand, or may be used to lift the motorcycle during servicing. Alternatively, an airbag may be deployed underneath the motorcycle to prevent the motorcycle from tipping over.

Abstract: A delivery unit (40) for automatically delivering a viscous sealant at a predetermined pressure to a stuffing box (70)of a shaft (20) is disclosed. The delivery unit (40), such as a pressure booster incrementally displaceable piston, is controlled to deliver the sealant at a predetermined pressure on demand when the pressure of the sealant within said stuffing box is less than the predetermined delivery pressure being sufficient to promote adhesion of the sealant onto a shaft segment and to thereby prevent or retard the egress of working fluid from a corresponding working chamber (17) of a machine adapte to perform work by the shaft. A system for reducing the pressure of sealant within a stuffing box by use of the delivery unit and of an impeller-based dynamic seal is also disclosed.
