Abstract: To enable a sheet to be folded in an accurate position with a simplified folding mechanism in performing folding processing on the sheet with a pair of folding rollers, a second transport path is disposed in a direction for crossing a first transport path for guiding a sheet from a carry-in portion to a carrying-out portion, and in the cross portion are disposed a folding roller pair for performing folding processing on a sheet, and a folding deflecting member for inserting a fold of the sheet in the nip portion. Then, the folding deflecting member is comprised of a driven roller that comes into press-contact with a roller periphery of the folding roller pair, and a shift member for shifting the driven roller from a waiting position to an actuation position, and by the operation of shifting the driven roller from the waiting position outside the path to the actuation position, the sheet front end portion is fed to the nip portion from an upstream-side guide path formed in the second transport path.

Abstract: A rigid member is configured to move a valve member to separate the valve member from an engaging part when a push lever moves from a lower dead center to an upper dead center. A resilient member is configured to move the valve member to separate the valve member from the engaging part when the push lever moves from the lower dead center to the upper dead center. A switching part selects one of the rigid member and the resilient member to move the valve member to separate the valve member from the engaging part. When the switching part selects the rigid member, a fastener driving operation is performed regardless of an order of a pulling operation and a pressing operation. When the switching part selects the resilient member, the fastener driving operation is performed only when the pulling operation is executed after the pressing operation is executed.

Abstract: The invention concerns the equipment for forming of paper containers starting from a continuous wet paper belt. It comprises a mobile semi-mold and a fixed semi-mold defining an impression corresponding to the container to be produced. Around the mobile semi-mold (15) are provided concentrically an upper cutting blade (18), an upper pleating/crimping ring (19) and an upper rim former (20); around the fixed semi-mold (14) are provided a counter cutting blade (21), an upper counter pleating/crimping ring (22) and a counter rim former (23), associated respectively with the cutting blade, the pleating/crimping ring and rim former on board associated with a mobile semi-mold.

Abstract: A power tool performs a predetermined operation by using a tool bit and has a grip part and a dust suction device. The dust suction device has a dust suction part that extends in an axial direction of the tool bit and sucks and collects dust generated during operation at a tip of the tool bit. The dust suction part can be moved between a first position in which the dust suction part covers a bit tip of the tool bit and a second position in which the bit tip is exposed. The dust suction device further has an operation mode switching mechanism that is capable of switching between a first operation mode in which the dust suction part is allowed to move between the first and second positions and a second operation mode in which the dust suction part is locked in the second position.

Abstract: A fuel delivery system for use with a combustion nailer including a cylinder head frame, the delivery system includes a fuel cell with an outer shell having a closed lower end and an open upper end, a closure crimped over the upper end and defining an opening for accommodating a reciprocating valve stem, a fuel cell adapter frictionally engaging the closure and including a flange configured for suspending the fuel cell in the fuel cell chamber. A stem receiver block is connectable to the cylinder head frame and includes a stem engagement portion configured for directly and sealingly engaging an end of the valve stem, the stem engagement portion being in fluid communication with an internal receiver passage constructed and arranged for delivering fuel to the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A fixed operating knob is rotatably arranged on a chain saw body. The fixed operating knob comprises a knob body, a tab, a torsion spring, and a lock member. The knob body is rotatably attached to the chain saw body. The tab is attached to the knob body. The tab is attached so as to be capable of swinging between an operating position projecting from the knob body and a storing position stored in the knob body. The torsion spring biases the tab toward the operating position. When the tab moves to the storing position, the lock member retains the tab at the storing position against a biasing force of the torsion spring.

Abstract: A pressure device for exerting pressure on an opening device fitted to a package of a food product pourable into a tube of packaging material, the device having a first pressure member movable between a first work position, in which it presses a first area of the opening device against the package, and a first rest position, in which it is detached from the opening device; and a second pressure member movable between a second work position, in which it presses a second area of the opening device against the package, and a second rest position, in which it is detached from the opening device; the first and second area being crosswise to each other.

Abstract: A container containing a fluorinated organic carbonate and a gas atmosphere which contains a cover gas selected from the group consisting of a noble gas, e.g., argon, xenon, a gaseous fluorinated aliphatic carbon which is heavier than air and does not interfere with the fluorinated organic compound, SF6, and any mixture thereof. Fluorinated organic carbonates are highly suitable as solvents or additives for solvent in Li ion batteries and consequently, must be kept in a very pure state even during expanded times of storage. The argon or xenon gas atmosphere prevents the intrusion of air or moisture even if the container is opened and the liquid handled in an environment of common air. A method of storing one or more fluorinated organic carbonates in a safe manner.

Abstract: A pneumatic motor unit includes a housing with an air inlet passage, an exhaust air outlet passage, and a rotation motor which generates a pulsating exhaust air outlet flow. The motor unit further includes a voltage depending device which communicates signals in response to at least one of an actual motor condition and operation parameter values, and a voltage generating section which is connected to the voltage depending device and which includes a piezoelectric element provided in the exhaust air outlet passage and arranged to be activated by pressure pulses of the pulsating exhaust air outlet flow from the motor. The piezoelectric element is tongue shaped and rigidly secured at one end, and is arranged to be swung in a two-way movement relative to a central rest position to thereby generate an alternating current voltage.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for applying adhesive to packaging in a variety of configurations. The adhesive may be applied by a nozzle in a first direction, a second direction and a stationary spot, wherein the first direction and the second direction are transverse to each other.
