Abstract: A blind riveting device is provided, which is adapted for engagement to a handle having a powered translating member projecting therefrom. Force from the translating member imparted to a drive piston moves a second piston to pull a blind rivet connected to a jaw engaged with the second piston, thereby mounting the blind rivet.

Abstract: A method of producing a composite product having cemented carbide tiles embedded in a metal surface thereof, a cemented carbide tile suitable for use in the method and a composite product including such cemented carbide tiles is provided. A mould for casting the product is prepared. Cemented carbide tiles having through holes or recesses are placed at desired surfaces of the mould and secured to the desired surfaces of the mould by fastening elements, such as nails or pins, such that at least part of an elongated body of each respective fastening element protrudse out from respective openings of each through hole or recess facing the mould surface and into the material of the mould to secure the respective cemented carbide tiles in place. Molten metal is poured into the mould to cast the composite product, the casting of which is removed after solidification.

Abstract: A method and a system are disclosed for storing initial data from an image detecting device in a camera system initial storage medium and making the data accessible. The initial data is stored consecutively in blocks, where file specific pointers representing the starting address for each stored file and file sequence, and dynamic memory pointers that points out the next writable address, are managed and stored during real time writing of the data. The data is made accessible through a virtual representation of the data in a virtual file system with a format known by an external storage medium controller, the virtual representation being related to the file specific pointers.

Abstract: A diagnostic method for an exhaust pressure regulator provided in an exhaust system connected to a turbocharged internal combustion engine includes demanding engine brake, measuring a back pressure in the exhaust system by a back pressure sensor provided between the exhaust pressure regulator and a turbo unit when demanding engine brake, measuring the boost pressure by a boost pressure sensor provided in the inlet manifold when demanding engine brake, comparing the measured back pressure and the measured boost pressure with stored back pressure and boost pressure values in order to determine whether there is a defective pressure regulator or a defective backpressure sensor. A diagnostic apparatus for an exhaust pressure regulator provided in an exhaust system connected to a turbocharged internal combustion engine is also provided.

Abstract: A method and system for operating a combustion engine brake especially for a heavy vehicle like a truck or a bus is disclosed. By detecting a brake torque value which is delivered by the combustion engine brake for braking the vehicle, and, if the amount of the difference between a demanded brake torque value and the delivered brake torque value exceeds a predetermined first limit value, by operating the combustion engine brake by means of at least one additional or alternative second operating parameter which is selected in order to create a corrected brake torque value, a considerably improved accuracy, efficiency and/or reliability of the combustion engine brake can be obtained.

Abstract: In an exhaust valve mechanism for an internal combustion engine the main rocker arm is mounted on a rocker arm shaft for normal valve operation via a cam element. A secondary rocker arm is mounted on the shaft for activation of an exhaust brake mode. The activation is achieved through supply of hydraulic pressure to a piston cylinder arrangement acting between the main and secondary rocker arms. A master piston and a slave piston are connected by a hydraulic-link allowing activation by increased hydraulic pressure. When activating the exhaust gas temperature increasing mode, the master piston is moved to an active position for part of its stroke against the force of a first resilient member. When activating the exhaust brake mode, the master piston is moved the full movement of its stroke against the combined forces of the first resilient member and a second resilient member as active position.

Abstract: The device is for the dilution of dewatered cellulose pulp that maintains a consistency of 20-30% or greater. By shredding of the pulp to a finely divided dry-granulate, dilution to a homogeneous consistency in the medium consistency range can take place exclusively through hydrodynamic effects from the addition of dilution fluid. The dilution fluid is added to granulate at a position at which granulate is in free fall in a standpipe and above a level Liqlev of diluted pulp in the standpipe. A number of nozzles are arranged around the periphery of the stand pipe, directed in towards the center of the stand pipe, obliquely downwards in the direction of fall of the granulate. It is possible through this simplified procedure to avoid completely the conventional dilution screws, and this reduces the investment costs and operating costs, while at the same time unnecessary mechanical influence of the pulp fibers can be avoided.

Abstract: Method for controlling the braking effect during engine braking in an internal combustion engine (10) having an exhaust turbocharger unit (16) with adjustable guide blades for controlling the turbine speed and gas flow. The method includes detection of the engine speed, detection of the adjustment position of the guide blades, measurement either of the charging pressure on the intake side of the engine or the manifold pressure on the exhaust side of the engine, comparison of these data with stored desired values, and adjustment of the guide blades to a desired position which gives a suitable braking effect for the prevailing charging pressure.
