Abstract: The invention relates to a high-pressure line for conveying a fluid under high pressure to a consumer, in particular for supplying fuel under injection pressure to one or more injectors (14) of a combustion engine. It comprises a first (1), a second (2), and a third line section (3), which line sections (1, 2, 3) are flowed through successively in the intended operation of the high-pressure line and are jointly formed by a ones-piece component (4) made of metal, wherein the first line section (1) and the third line section (3) each have a smaller flow cross-section than the second line section (2) arranged between them.

Abstract: In a method for conveying live animals, a conveying channel having a dosing belt is moved in a conveying direction and side walls extending along the dosing belt separated by animal shoulder widths confine the animals. Standing animals are loaded onto the belt in a column with the head of each animal oriented in a desired direction relative to the conveying direction and with separation between the animals. Separating barriers transversely across the dosing belt are moved with the dosing belt and the animals to maintain separation between the animals. A chest belt can be employed to carry the animals, substantially fixing their positions.
