  • Patent number: 10334911
    Abstract: A buckle for releasable load coupling of two elements, the buckle includes a first and a second buckle component. Each of the buckle components may have a connection area via which one of the elements is connectable to the buckle component, and a coupling area wherein the buckle components can be coupled to one another in a form-fit manner. The buckle components may be releasably locked to one another at the coupled position by a locking element. Each of the coupling areas of the buckle components may be defined by a hook profile extending in the width direction. The hook profiles of the buckle components may be configured as complementary elements and interengage at the coupled position of the buckle components. One embodiment includes using the buckle to couple two elements on an object that can be worn on the human body, and in some cases, a ballistic vest.

  • Patent number: 5072492
    Abstract: A can filling apparatus receives a band of carded fibers from a carding machine and deposits it in a rotating storage can. The apparatus includes a head part arranged above a rotatable can and having a rotary plate driveable to execute a rotational movement. Two calender rolls journalled for rotation on at least substantially horizontal axes on the rotary plate deposit the fiber band in continuous cycloidal loops into the can. At least one of the calender rolls is driveable by a friction wheel which is rotatably journalled on the rotary plate and runs around a fixed ring surface of the head part. An imaginary axis about which the friction wheel turns is arranged fixed in space relative to the rotary plate and the friction wheel has a conical surface which rolls off on a complementary conical ring surface of a window ring.

  • Patent number: 5044047
    Abstract: The can-filling apparatus for a textile machine comprises an upper part supporting a filling head, a lower part structured particularly as an automatic coiler-can exchanger, and at least one upright supporting the upper part and exctending between the upper and the lower part. The at least one upright constitutes a telescopic pair of columns structured such that the telescoping displacement of one column relative to the other column of the telescopic pair of columns is infinitely variable. The one column telescopingly displaced relative to the other column can be arrested at a selectable height and, is required, connected to the other column of the telescopic pair of columns.

  • Patent number: 4999883
    Abstract: For draft- and trouble-free coiling of a sliver arriving from a deflection roll into a sliver can, there is provided a coiler roll which, in cooperation with a nip or pinch roll, guides the sliver through an infeed funnel and deposits the sliver directly upon sliver coils already located in the sliver can. For this purpose, the circumference of the coiler roll projects by a predetermined amount deeper into the sliver can than the underside or lower surface of a coiler plate.
