Abstract: A tire and antiskid net for vehicle tires, particularly for tires of heavy earth moving machines, has a plurality of vertical members arranged to extend substantially normally to a tire surface, a plurality of ring-shaped connecting members of a limited length engaging the vertical members and arranged to extend substantially parallel to the tire surface, and a plurality of sleeve-shaped closure members fitted onto the ends of each connecting member in their abutting position so as to hold together the abutting ends of each of the connecting members.

Abstract: For providing a minimum dimension and material consumption relative to the respective nominal width and optimal strength and flow conditions, an intermediate housing part of a check valve is composed of two semispherical shell halves connected by beam welding along a plane extending transverse to a throughflow axis, the shell halves include hollow connecting pieces and also half rings of a cover flange formed an upper housing opening, the intersecting point of the separating plane with the throughflow axis forms a sphere center of the intermediate housing part, a third part is formed by a pipe bend which has a truncated-cone-shaped chamfered end portion with which it is introduced into a respective inner conical bore from the supply side of the intermediate housing part and welded by an electron beam and which carries at its end opposite to the upper housing opening a valve seat ring, wherein the center of a spherical deflecting portion of the pipe bend at least approximately coincides with the center of the
