  • Patent number: 7406824
    Abstract: The circuit comprises a main hydraulic pump (52), two main ducts (50, 54), a booster pump (56), a hydraulic motor (10; 20) which comprises two elementary motors (11, 12; 21, 22) for driving a first displacement member (1, 2), and a second hydraulic motor (30; 40) for driving a second displacement member (3, 4). The second elementary motor (12) is in parallel with the second main motor (30) while the first elementary motor (11) and the second main motor (20) are connected to a feed or discharge additional duct, e.g. via a series link between them. The booster pump (56) is connected to the additional duct, e.g. an interconnection duct (60; 62) for interconnecting the first elementary motor (11; 21) and the second main motor (30; 40). A replenishing valve (70) is suitable for connecting one of the main ducts to a pressure-free reservoir (51) and the circuit further comprises means (72) for preventing said replenishing link from being established on detecting a condition that reveals a spin situation.

  • Patent number: 4150761
    Abstract: A cup for use with a bottle to cover a threaded bottle cap having a roughened outer surface is formed with a plurality of inwardly projecting ribs which force-fit into engagement with the roughened surface of the bottle cap. At least two of the ribs are formed with a projecting seat for securing over the bottle cap. When the cup is seated in position on the bottle cap, the cup and bottle cap may be rotatably displaced as a unit to unscrew the bottle cap from the bottle. The cup can be separated from the bottle cap while the bottle cap remains on the bottle by pulling the cup away from the bottle cap, thereby allowing the bottle cap to be removed separately from the bottle.
