Abstract: A vehicle differential inversion assembly for splitting the torque of the vehicle power source two ways to opposite sides of the vehicle, to a set of wheels; a left wheel and a right wheel. The wheels are supported by respective independent left and right suspensions allowing vertical travel of each wheel. The assembly features a differential module for splitting the torque two ways. The differential module is disposed between the left wheel and the right wheel and has a left side output and a right side output. The outputs spin at opposed directions. A left output axle couples with the left side output and extends to the left of the differential module. A right output axle couples with the right side output and extends to the right of the differential module. A left wheel axle is cross-coupled with the right output axle by a right inversion joint disposed at a distance to the right of the differential module. The left wheel axle extends toward and turns the left wheel.

Abstract: The clamping system for clamping a shank, for example a tool shank, into a seat has a spiral-shaped circumferential groove arranged in the wall of the seating hole and a clamping wedge which is provided with corresponding spiral-shaped ribs and is insertable into a recess on the shank.

Abstract: The slip-proof system consists of screw connection elements in the form of union nuts having recesses (6, 22) arranged in the lateral surface and of a spanner (11, 25, 30), which is provided with projections (14, 28, 32) engaging into the recesses and is intended for tightening and loosening said screw connection elements.

Abstract: For balancing a tool coupling, the compensating measures (removal of material, use of other material) are carried out in two planes an axial distance apart. Tool couplings are provided with recesses for imbalance compensation in two planes an axial distance apart.

Abstract: The apparatus for supplying a cooling fluid to the outer surface of a tool consists of a guide element which surrounds the tool shank and gives rise to a laminar coolant flow.

Abstract: Pressing device for relative axial displacement of two parts arranged coaxially with one another and displaceable towards one another only by means of high pressure, such as, for example, collet chucks or clamping sleeves, into corresponding bores of tool or collet chuck holders. The device has an outer housing which coaxially encompasses the parts to be pressed and is hinged along an axial plane. Insert halves which in each case comprise two fixed plates having engaging edges for engaging one of the parts to be pressed and an axially moveable press plate having an engaging edge for engaging the second part to be pressed can be inserted into the housing.

Abstract: The pressing device serves for the relative axial movement of two parts, which are arranged coaxially with respect to one another and are moveable relative to one another only by high pressing power. The pressing device has one fixed pressure plate and one pressure plate which is moved axially by hydraulic cylinders and an insert which is to be placed around the parts which are to be pressed. The insert is held closed by means of a closure door which is articulatedly mounted on the moving part of the pressing device. The pressure cylinders are arranged as close as possible to the center of pressure, that is to say to the axis of the parts which are to be pressed.

Abstract: The invention concerns an artificial leg with an artificial knee having, for carrying a femoral stump, a joint body which is rotatable about the joint axis; with a shaft, the upper end of which engages the joint body, and the lower end of which bears an artificial foot; joint body and shaft cooperate in such a way that a rotational movement of the joint body is transferred into a translative movement of the shaft, and that during the bending of the knee joint the distance between its joint axis and the tip of the artificial foot is reduced.

Abstract: The invention concerns an artificial leg with an artificial knee and an artificial foot. The artificial leg according to the invention comprises the following features: the artificial knee has a joint body turnable about its turning axis for carrying a femoral stump; with a shaft, the upper end of which engages the joint body, and the lower end of which supports the artificial foot; the artificial foot is connected to the shaft in a telescopically expandable manner; there is provided a conrod drive, comprising a connecting rod, the lower end of which is lead by the shaft in a slideable manner, and engages the artificial foot; the upper end of the connecting rod is articulated to a lever arm, which is in driving connection with the joint body, so that during the bending of the artificial knee the distance between its turning axis and the tip of the artificial foot is reduced.

Abstract: A dispensing package for a cosmetic/antiperspirant/deodorant or other stick product. The dispensing package can have a tear-away seal integrally molded with the applicator end of the package barrel. The tear-away seal, or a frangible bead forming part of the tear-away structure, can contain a tab for the user to grip when removing the tear-away seal to open the product. The dispensing package can be actuated by rotating a thumb-wheel held in place by two slots in opposing sides of the package barrel. The elevator component that ejects product from the dispensing package can be molded with an unthreaded, self-tapping hole that is tapped by insertion of the actuator spindle during assembly of the dispensing package.

Abstract: The non-slip system consists of screw connection elements or screw closure elements with cams or grooves (4) on the face, and of a spanner (13), also provided with cams (16, 17, 18), for tightening and loosening them. The side flanks (8, 9) of the cams or grooves have an S-shaped profile.

Abstract: The collet reduction serves for inserting into a collet receptacle of a machine tool and fastening by means of a fastening nut. It is provided on its outer side, between its part on the machine side and its part on the tool side, with receiving means for receiving an element which surrounds it in an annular manner. The fastening nut engages on this element and pulls the reduction out of the receptacle during unscrewing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing device which is provided with an annular circumferential groove in a preceding sealing washer and having a sealing body disposed in the groove. The width and depth of the groove are larger than the cross-section of the sealing body so that the sealing body can be axially moved in the groove and may be forced against the wall of the groove and the tool shank by inner pressure provided, for example, by a coolant.

Abstract: A heat shrink tool holder for holding tools and machine parts in an axial bore comprises a sleeve between the bore of the holder and the tool shank or machine part. The sleeve is a reducing sleeve that transfers a holding action exerted by the holder in its cold state to the tool shank or part. The sleeve is made of a material with a low thermal conductivity, like ceramic, and may be interchangeable or firmly fixed to the holder.
