Abstract: A speed limiting device for lifts or the like comprising a cable wheel drivable by means of a speed limiter cable secured to the lift cabin, a cam disk fixably connected with the cable wheel and seated upon a common shaft or axle, and a support movable by the cam disk and the speed limiting device upon exceeding a predetermined lift travel speed, decelerating the speed limiter cable. There is provided a separate cable brake acting upon the limiter cable and an actuation mechanism which can be actuated with a tilting behavior upon activating the separate cable brake. The actuation mechanism comprises at least one mass body accelerated by the support proportional to the lift travel speed during rotation of the cam disk, the mass body upon exceeding a predetermined travel speed is movable relative to the support under the action of the inertia forces for releasing or triggering the actuation mechanism.

Abstract: A foundary molding machine which for the simultaneous separate production of two foundry mold parts possesses two mold units provided with a respective match plate support and a sand filling- and compaction station. Each of the mold units has operatively associated therewith a pivotal device incorporating pivotal arms pivotable about vertical shafts in a respective horizontal plane. The pivotal arms carry mold frames supported in mold frame holders which they pivot from the sand filling- and compaction station, while rotating the mold frame containing the mold lower part through 180.degree. about a horizontal axis, into a position wherein both mold parts are in superimposed position at an attachment or assembly station where both of the mold parts are deposited on top of one another onto a conveyor mechanism.
