Abstract: A system for detecting the pressure in a pneumatic vehicle tire which is mounted on a vehicle and/or the speed of the vehicle, having an arrangement composed of load sensors which supplies force signals for a two-dimensional pattern of the distribution of force which is exerted by the vehicle tire in contact with the sensors when the vehicle moves over the arrangement, a computer which is programmed in such a way that it defines the tire pressure and/or the speed on the basis of the distribution of force independently of the method of manufacture or the model of the tire and of the vehicle, and a device for displaying the pressure and/or the speed, is characterized in that the arrangement composed of load sensors comprises at least two series of load sensors which are arranged one behind the other in the direction of travel, wherein at least one row of load sensors is offset with respect to one or more rows of the load sensors by a predetermined absolute value transversely with respect to the direction of tra

Abstract: A chipper device for chipping one or more metal ingots. The chipper device includes a cutter head and a guide mechanism associated with the cutter head. The guide mechanism includes a chute having a passageway. A feed mechanism is adapted to move one or more ingots sequentially through the passageway of the chute into engagement with the cutter head, whereby the cutter head chips the ingots into a plurality of particles.
