Abstract: Herein described is a gearmotor assembly for bicycles comprising a pedal crank shaft, an electric motor provided with an electronic control unit, a reduction gear mechanism and a gear wheel, arranged coaxially around the pedal crank shaft. The gearmotor assembly further comprises two internal overrunning clutches, mounted coaxially around the pedal crank shaft and configured to transmit torque in a first direction of rotation of the pedal crank shaft, and an external overrunning clutch, mounted coaxially inside the gear wheel and configured to transmit torque in a second direction of rotation of the pedal crank shaft which is opposite with respect to the first direction of rotation. A hollow tubular element kinematically connected to the drive wheel for transmitting the torque is interposed between the internal and external overrunning clutches.

Abstract: Herein described is a bicycle comprising a frame, a drive wheel and a pedal crank/pedal assembly which transmits mechanical energy to the drive wheel by means of a transmission system which comprises: a tank containing a hydraulic fluid; a hydraulic circuit in which the hydraulic fluid flows; a hydraulic pump, actuated by the pedal crank/pedal assembly and configured to pump the hydraulic fluid through the hydraulic circuit; at least one hydraulic actuator, arranged along the hydraulic circuit and configured to transform the hydraulic energy supplied by the hydraulic pump to the hydraulic fluid into mechanical energy; and a drive shaft, connected to the hydraulic actuator and configured to transfer the mechanical energy generated by the hydraulic actuator to the drive wheel. The hydraulic pump is connected to an electric motor whose rotational speed, as well as the operating parameters of the hydraulic pump, are controlled by a circuit board.

Abstract: A device for controlling a twist of a tube of packaging material in relation to an apparatus for transverse sealing of the tube comprises a number of rollers forming an aperture through which the packaging material is arranged to pass. A roller surface of each of the rollers is arranged to be in contact with an outer surface of the tube. The direction of the rotation axis of at least one of the rollers is adjustable to control the twist of the tube. A method for controlling a twist of a tube of packaging material comprises allowing the packaging material to pass through an aperture formed by a number of rollers with a rolling surface in contact with an outer surface of the tube, and adjusting the direction of the rotation axis of at least one of the rollers to control the twist of the tube.

Abstract: Equaliser (4) or phase plug, for electro-acoustic transducers (1), having at least a central hole (40), and or a first series of openings (41), or slots, in the from of concentric rings, coaxial to an axis (4a) of symmetry of the phase plug (4). Said phase plug is characterised in that it has at least a second series of radial slots (42) positioned externally to said hole (40) or to said first series of slots (41). In the phase plug (4) has a third series of radial slots (43) interposed between said first and second series (41;42).
