  • Publication number: 20180169992
    Abstract: A cylindrical thermal protection cap for covering a length of an elongated structural element (50). The cap has a sandwich-like composite insulation system (10, 12, 16, 18, 20) which has a thermal conductivity lower or equal to 0.11 W/m.° C. at 800° C. and a thickness lower than 50 millimeters.

  • Patent number: 9629299
    Abstract: A front attachment control system includes a selective control valve controlled by a joystick in a utility vehicle operator station, a diverter valve connected to the selective control valve and having a diverter switch that switches the diverter valve between a first position for an attachment tilt function and a second position for an attachment angling function controlled by the joystick. A front attachment with an angling cylinder includes a pair of hydraulic lines connectable to the diverter valve, and an actuator that engages the diverter switch as the hydraulic lines are connected to the diverter valve to switch the diverter valve to the second position.

  • Publication number: 20060279020
    Abstract: Improvements to paper web material dispensers, particularly two roll tissue dispensers. A dispenser according to the invention is able to prevent access to a second or reserve roll of tissue until a first or dispensing roll is entirely or substantially depleted. As a result, the tissue of the first roll must be used up, or substantially used up, before tissue from the second roll can be used, thereby avoiding tissue waste. The dispenser of the invention can be used with reduced core tissue rolls, where each roll has first and second core sections that are spaced apart from each other to form a gap between facing ends thereof so that the total length of the core sections is less than the width of the tissue wound onto the core sections. The dispenser of the invention thus encourages the use of reduced core tissue rolls, which results in a reduction of waste resulting from used tissue cores.

  • Publication number: 20060108467
    Abstract: Improvements to a paper web material dispenser, for example a roll tissue dispenser or a roll paper towel dispenser, that has a user actuation mechanism for rotating a dispensing mechanism of the dispenser. The dispenser is designed to prevent excessive force that is applied to the user actuation mechanism from causing damage to components of the dispenser connected to the user actuation mechanism. A torque limiting mechanism is used to limit the torque that is applied to the dispensing mechanism of the dispenser when a user applies an excessive force to the user actuation mechanism. The torque applied to the dispensing mechanism is kept below a level that would be sufficient to cause damage to the dispensing mechanism or portions thereof.
