Abstract: A road grading pick includes a cutting head, a shank, a shoulder at a transition between the cutting head and the shank, and a polygonal-shaped washer or an oval-shaped washer. The shank is positioned in an opening of the washer to position the washer along a longitudinal length of the shank between a rearward end of the shank and the rearward facing surface of the shoulder. In a preinstalled position, the washer compresses a friction retainer on the shank of the road grading pick to facilitate seating of the road grading pick in a blade of a road grading apparatus. In an installed position on an adapter board for a moldboard of road grading equipment, the friction retainer is no longer in the opening of the washer and the washer prevents washer rotation and shields an underlying mounting surface while allowing rotation of the road grading pick.

Abstract: A working machine including an internal combustion engine for supplying torque to the driving wheels of the working machine, and a transmission line arranged between the internal combustion engine and the driving wheels for transmitting torque from the internal combustion engine to the driving wheels. The working machine further including at least one hydraulic pump in a hydraulic system for moving an implement arranged on the working machine and/or steering the working machine. The transmission line includes at least one electric machine for driving or braking the driving wheels, and/or for generating electric power for the at least one hydraulic pump.

Abstract: A working machine adapted for at least two functions, which include moving an implement and/or steering the machine, the machine includes: at least two hydraulic circuits, one hydraulic circuit for each of said functions, wherein each hydraulic circuit includes at least one hydraulic pump for operating the associated implement or steering function, a separate first electric machine drivingly connected to each of said hydraulic pumps for an individual supply of energy to the pump and extraction of energy from the pump, a transmission line for moving the working machine via driving wheels, wherein the transmission line includes at least one second electric machine, which is operatively connected to said first electric machines for an exchange of power between the hydraulic circuits and the transmission line.

Abstract: A motor vehicle transmission having two intermediate shafts, which can alternately be driven via disengageable primary gearwheels, and drive a main shaft, via gearwheels on the respective main shaft and intermediate shaft, which gearwheels engage with one another in pairs. Mounted on an input shaft are two lockable and disconnectable drive gearwheels, one of which directly drives the primary gearwheels in a first rotational direction, whilst the other of which, via an intermediate gearwheel, drives the primary gearwheels in an opposite direction. The realization produces a transmission having an equal number of forward and reverse gears, which can be shifted without interruption of torque.

Abstract: Method and arrangement for providing a temperature regulating system (1) in a vehicle. The system includes an hydraulic arrangement (6) that is adapted to provide components intended for rotation belonging to a gearbox (5) of the vehicle and at least one of the axles (2, 3) of the vehicle with hydraulic oil from the same container (7). The system also has an arrangement (22) for regulating the temperature of the oil in the hydraulic arrangement (6) via a heat exchanger unit (21). The temperature regulating arrangement (22) is also adapted to cool the engine (4) of the vehicle.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for reversing the driving direction of a vehicle in motion, in which a movement of a gear selector to a position that indicates the new intended driving direction is detected (12). After the gear selector has assumed the new driving direction position, the vehicle's driving brakes are applied (14) depending upon the depression of the vehicle's gas pedal. The driving brakes (10) are applied proportionally to a change in position of the gas pedal. A speed of the engine (1) of the vehicle is increased with increased depression of the gas pedal. A gearbox (2) of the vehicle is disconnected (13) from the vehicle's engine (1) when the gear selector is detected to have been moved to the reverse driving direction position. A change (15) in the gearbox is effected from the current gear position to a position that indicates the selected gear for driving in the reverse direction after disconnection (13) of the vehicle's gearbox (2) from the vehicle's engine (1).

Abstract: Brake-operating assembly for a machine including first and second brake pedals that are interconnected with one another. A first valve element is connected to the first brake pedal and arranged to control flow of hydraulic fluid from a pressure source to brake cylinders of the machine. A second valve element is connected to the second brake pedal and arranged to control flow of hydraulic fluid from the pressure source to the brake cylinders of the machine. The interconnection between the first and the second brake pedals is established utilizing at least one connecting line arranged between the first and the second valve element for hydraulic fluid.

Abstract: A stump cutter includes a rotary drum, holders mounted on the drum, and cutting bits mounted in respective bores of each holder for rotation relative thereto. Each cutting bit includes a shank having a pocket formed in a front end thereof in which the cutting tip is brazed, wherein an outer lip of the shank tightly grips an outer side surface of the cutting tip with a thermal shrink fit. The cutting tip includes a circular cutting edge formed by the intersection between portions of the front surface and side surface of the cutting tip, which surface portions intersect at a ninety degree angle. The front surface of the cutting tip includes raised radial ribs spaced circumferentially therearound for inducing rotation of the cutting bit during a cutting operation.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for accelerating the drying and/or curing of filler material, primer and top-coatings in connection with touch-up work on car bodies.According to the apparatus of the invention, grinding, filling and spraying are accomplished in one and the same booth, whereupon a carrier containing infra-red heat radiators and/or heating-elements and/or nozzles is traversed over the car, whereby controlled heat-energy is supplied to the surface accelerating drying and/or curing process of the surface treatment material. For supplying sufficient heat-energy to the front and rear parts of the car, special reflectors are located in front of and behind the car for reflecting heat-radiation from the carrier.
