Abstract: A system for emptying a gravity separated fluid including a flexible bag storing the fluid arranged within a protection structure, the protection structure including a bottom element forming the lower section of the protection structure, the flexible bag being connected to the protection structure, and includes at least one fluid conduit providing fluid communication between the flexible bag and outside the protection structure. A first outlet pipe is arranged inside the flexible bag near the bottom element and is connected to and in fluid communication with the at least one fluid conduit. A perforated tube surrounding the outlet pipe provides an annulus fluid passage, water is supplied to the structure volume, and the fluid is emptied through the at least one fluid conduit, through the perforations in the perforated tube, through the annulus fluid passage to the first outlet pipe.

Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning and pre-milking a teat of a milking animal prior to the milking animal being milked comprises a teat cleaning and pre-milking device (51) having cleaning means and pre-milking means, wherein, during cleaning and pre-milking, the teat of the animal is exposed to the cleaning and pre-milking means. The apparatus comprises further means (60; 84) for establishing that milk is actually extracted from the teat of the milking animal during the cleaning and pre-milking, means (62; 84) for measuring a quality, preferably a somatic cell count value, of the milk extracted from the teat of the animal during the cleaning and pre-milking, means for comparing the measured quality of the milk with a reference quality value, and means for indicating, depending on the comparison, whether or not milk drawn from the teat of the animal during a subsequent milking should be mixed with milk drawn from another animal.

Abstract: A milking equipment comprises a milking member (1) having teatcups (3) and a milk hose (4) connected to the milking member. A balancing device (6, 10, 11), which carries the milking member and at least a portion of the milk hose, is adjustable to an application position (FIG. 1), at which the balancing device is arranged to balance essentially the weight of the milking member and the weight of said portion of the milk hose in order to permit a milker to apply the teatcups to the teats of an animal without the need for the milker to carry the whole weight of the milking member. Furthermore, the balancing device is adjustable to a milking position, at which essentially the whole weight of the milking member acts on the teats of an animal when the teatcups are attached to the teats.

Abstract: Cruise control for regulating the speed of a motor vehicle with a processing unit (14) and a manually actuatable operating element (20), wherein a selected speed can be set. On the operating element there is a switch (23), wherein the driver can select if the selected speed is to be kept constant of if it is to constitute a minimum speed or a maximum speed. There is also a switch (24, 25), wherein a permitted overspeed above a selected maximum speed can be set, so that a higher speed can be allowed when driving downhill, for the purpose of saving energy.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for producing a material web of synthetic textile material for conversion into table-cloths. Here, two material webs produced according to standard procedure are joined along their respective side edges to a material web folded to a V shape for obtaining a total width on the produced web that is greater than the maximum width of a web produced by standard procedure. The inventive apparatus includes two reels (1, 2) on which are would webs (3, 4) of standard manufacture, which may be rolled off the reels and into mutual proximity with the aid of a roll nip (6) disposed after the reels, there also being a folding plate (8) for folding a third web (5) into a V shape which may be joined to both webs (3, 4) along their respective juxtaposed side edges by its free side portions (12, 13) to form a material web (11) having a total width which is greater than the maximum width of a web produced by standard procedure.

Abstract: This invention relates to a propelling charge comprising several rectangular powder strips for a recoilless weapon or a rocket and a method to produce the charge. The strips are piled on each other and joined with one or more threads at one side of the pile and the pile is bent to a tubular shape, at which the edges of the strips that are joined to each other generate the inner side of the tube.An even ignition and combustion of the powder is achieved with the suggested powder strip arrangement.
