Abstract: A tool for disassembling and assembling bearings which support an engine mounting frame of an internal combustion engine, is mounted on a base, a bearing having opposing metal securing plates and a resiliently deformable damping element extending between the securing plates, said tool comprising opposing, parallel mounting plates, each mounting plate being mountable on a securing plate of a bearing to be dissassembled or assembled, and comprising a turnbuckle, via which the opposing mounting plates are operatively connected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a seal containing a substrate which can be applied to an object to be sealed, so that said seal is changed when it is removed without authorization, wherein the substrate contains or comprises a polymer and/or a glass and at least one optical waveguide is arranged in the substrate, at least one first Bragg grating being arranged in said optical waveguide, wherein the substrate has a thickness of less than 200 ?m. The invention further relates to a system having a seal of this kind and having an evaluation device, and also to a sealing method.

Abstract: A torque wrench adapter attaching for coupling an open-ended wrench insert to a torque wrench, having a first section, which is used to attach the torque wrench adapter to an open-ended wrench insert, and having a second section which is used to attach the torque wrench adapter to a torque wrench. The first section and the second section are connected to each other in an articulated manner via a joint in such a way that the same can be displaced relative to each other about a pivot axis of the joint.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for measuring conditions affecting susceptibility of a surface to ice formation, as for an aircraft. Detection surfaces are provided with cooling and heating elements. At least a portion of a detection surface is cooled below the ambient to cause ice to form. The temperature of ice formation and the time required for ice to build up provide measures of the risk of icing.
