Abstract: A vane motor comprises a casing and a vane rotor being mounted in the casing. A friction brake device is arranged in the casing and it is intended for braking, stopping and releasing the vane rotor. At least one of the two end faces of the vane rotor is part of the brake device and forms a friction pair with a braking surface of a brake element of the brake device. The brake element is arranged next to the said end face of the vane rotor and is axially movable upon actuation of the friction brake device for braking, stopping and releasing the vane rotor.

Abstract: The invention concerns a manually operated control valve on a pneumatically or hydraulically operated equipment which has a control shaft positioned substantially in a horizontally oriented direction. By turning the control shaft to and fro against an increasing resistance the attached motor of the equipment will turn in one direction or in the other direction. The control shaft is provided with a hose or a piece of hose together with an extension in the shape of a tube or the like, and the hose serves as a universal joint which retains its operating properties independently of any bending of the hose due to position changes of the equipment.
