Abstract: Method and device for controlling specific functions of a load-carrying vehicle when dumping and/or loading the load-carrying platform of the vehicle. The device includes a maneuvering organ (control input) that is arranged in the cabin of the load-carrying vehicle for hand maneuvering by the driver. The maneuvering organ (control input) is coupled to at least one of the brakes of the load-carrying vehicle and to the gearbox of the load-carrying vehicle so that it when activated may activate the brake and select a neutral position in the gearbox.

Abstract: Method and arrangement for controlling a load-carrying vehicle when dumping or loading a load carrying platform of the vehicle. The method includes detecting maneuvering of a control input arranged in a cabin of a load-carrying vehicle having a load-carrying platform using a computer control unit operatively coupled between the control input and a brake and a gearbox of the vehicle. The brake of the vehicle is activated using the computer control unit and the gearbox of the load-carrying vehicle is caused to assume a neutral position using the computer control unit.

Abstract: A liquid driven pump has a driving-liquid accelerating nozzle which opens into a pump chamber having an outlet part positioned coaxially with the nozzle. Opening into the pump chamber is an evacuation line which is intended for connection to a space to be evacuated. The outlet part of the pump chamber discharges into a coaxial drainage chamber and has an abrupt increase in cross sectional area in relation to the outlet part. The drainage chamber has downstream net-like elements which are passed through by the liquid. The relationship between the smallest cross sectional areas of the nozzle and the outlet part respectively and the distance between the nozzle orifice and the drainage chamber are such that essentially the whole of the diffusion process takes place through the agency of the net-like elements. The smallest cross sectional area of the outlet part is from 1.4 to 4.

Abstract: A machine for energy conversion includes a working chamber defined by two relatively movable parts and provided with inlets and outlets for the working medium, both parts having members serving as pistons and abutments which sealingly engage with the walls of the working chamber. The members serving as pistons and abutments may pass through each other and consist of a number of juxtaposed elements which laterally seal against each other and against adjacent portions of the wall of the working compartment and have variable surface area to permit passage.

Abstract: An automatic apparatus or robot preferably intended for cleaning floors or like surfaces in such premises and within such regions, where one cannot for special reasons utilize conventional apparatuses or machines. The automatic apparatus or robot includes a unit which is spaced from the apparatus proper, drivable along a track spaced from the floor or like surface, and coupled with the apparatus to steer and tow it.
