Abstract: Fastening for a rail and arrangement for fastening of rails The invention relates to a fastening for a rail for securing a rail (10) whose foot is resting on a concrete sleeper (16), comprising at least one elastic clip (20) having several legs of which at least one leg extends inside a shoulder (42, 44) or channel of a holder (24) that is connected to the concrete sleeper, and at least one further leg rests on the rail foot. For securing a rail to the necessary extent with simple design means and in space-saving form, it is suggested that the holder (24, 26) is arranged detachably in the concrete sleeper (16) or in a plate element resting thereon and is connected to the concrete sleeper by a bolt element.

Abstract: A rail fastening apparatus fastens an inner stock rail in a railway slide chair assembly. The apparatus includes a base plate. The base plate has on one face a rail seat region on which the inner stock rail sits when the slide chair assembly is in use. A resilient rail fastening clip restrains the inner stock rail. A locating means locates the rail fastening clip in a first position. A loading means vertically deflects the clip so as to produce a load in a toe portion of the clip.

Abstract: A contour mapping system useful as a spine analyzer includes a probe for application to a user's hand with the outer tip of at least one finger of the hand movable along the outer surface of the object (e.g., a person's spine) whose contour is to be mapped. A position sensor is carried by the probe and is movable therewith, and with the user's hand, as the user's finger moves along the outer surface of the object. The system further includes a position tracking system for tracking the movement of the position sensor as the probe is moved with the user's hand along the outer surface of the object.

Abstract: The seat cushion of a seat can be tilted about its longitudinal center axis for generating a tilting movement of the pelvis of a seat occupant. For generating the tilting movement, an adjusting element is provided in each of the right and the left area of the seat cushion. The adjusting elements interact to cause an opposite adjusting movement in the vertical direction, whereby the tilting movement of the pelvis is achieved. The adjusting elements are constructed, for example, as liquid-filled rolling bellows, in which case a sliding vane rotary pump changes the volume of the two adjusting elements in a diametrically opposed manner.

Abstract: Described is a method of controlling a power distribution hydromechanical branched transmission consisting of an adjustable hydrostatic unit (4), an integrating planetary gear (10) with at least two outputs (26, 27) and, connected to the integrating planetary gear, a range-changing gear (11) designed as a double planetary gear. The two outputs (26, 27) are connected to the range-changing gear (11) by a first clutch (K1) or a second clutch (K2), and one element of the range-changing gear (11) is controlled by a third clutch (KV). Additional clutches (K3, K4) are fitted for the other ranges. In conditions in which the gear-change position is uncertain, the first clutch (K1) or the second clutch (K2), depending on the instantaneous speed of the vehicle, is synchronized and engaged by adjusting the hydrostatic unit (4), and then either one of the other clutches (K3, K4) or the third clutch (KV) is synchronized and engaged.

Abstract: A jaw clutch for the drive of motor vehicles has a first clutch half and a second clutch half which are axially displaceable relative to one another, both clutch halves are provided with axially protruding jaw elements which are distributed uniformly over the contact surface of the halves. In order to engage the clutch halves without synchronization and at the greatest possible difference in speed of rotation in an easy and rapid manner, the jaw elements are provided with transition zones from the front surface and side surfaces of the jaw element which are curved as seen in circumferential section wherein the radius of curvature is 6 to 13%, and the length of curvature in circumferential direction is 3 to 7% the average jaw radius.
