Abstract: A wheel lifting device comprising a base structure with support means for being supported by a ground surface and a lifting frame with at least one wheel support member and a frame leg which extends upwardly at an angle to the ground surface. A link mechanism is connected to the base structure and to the lifting frame and a pivotal manoeuvring lever is connected to the link mechanism for lifting the lifting frame relative to the base structure. The blocking device for locking the manoeuvring lever at any desired pivotal position comprises a weight which is slidable along the frame leg and arranged to intersect the pivotal movement path of the manoeuvring lever and to be brought into frictional engagement with the frame leg when influenced by a force generated by the manoeuvring lever in order to block the lifting frame from downward movement relative to the base structure.

Abstract: A double-screw compressor for supplying gas, such as air, to a gas consumer, is provided. The double-screw compressor includes two interacting rotors for compressing the gas and a toothed gearing. The toothed gearing includes a gearing housing with two opposite end walls made of a first material. Two gearwheels made of a second material which has a thermal expansion coefficient different from the thermal expansion coefficient of the first material are mounted in the end walls. In order to reduce the effect of the temperature on the backlash, both gearwheels are designed with one and the same pressure angle which is smaller than 15°.

Abstract: Ear defenders comprising an elastic headband (1) and an ear muff (4) arranged on the inside of each leg (2) of the headband. The ear muffs (4) are arranged displaceably along the insides of the legs (2) from the end positions of the legs and so far along the legs that the free ends (7) of the latter can be bent towards and connected to one another, so that the legs completely surround the ear muffs (4). This means that the ear defenders can be compressed before storage in, for example, a pocket.

Abstract: An arrangement in hearing protection devices, headphones and the like of the type comprising a frame (1) and plugs (2) arranged at both ends of the frame. Each of the plugs is pressed into contact with the orifice of the related auditory meatus and may also partly enter the passage. The frame (1) is provided with means (3) that contact the skull bone at the related ear for the purpose of dampening vibrations in the frame. Those means can be shaped like bent or enlarged portions of the frame adjacent to each end thereof, said portions being arranged, when the device is in use, to be held in pressure contact against the skull bone in the area of the respective ear.

Abstract: A handle for hand-held tools, particularly files, that have an end portion (3) for insertion into the handle (1). The handle includes at least two parts (4, 5) which are separated in the insertion direction of the end portion of the tool and includes end-portion guides (6). One guide has the form of a hole (6) in one handle part (4). A surface on the guide in the other handle part (5) intended for coaction with the end portion (3) of the tool is displaced laterally in relation to a corresponding surface in the hole (6). The two handle parts (4, 5) are resiliently movable relative to one another, to permit reduction in the displacement between the surfaces in conjunction with inserting the end portion (3) of the tool into the handle (1). The end portion of the tool is automatically clamped firmly in the handle as the handle parts tend to spring back to their original positions.

Abstract: A self-closing funnel includes a downwardly narrowing flow-receiving part 1, a tubular spout 2 extending from the receiving part, and a float 5 which is movable within the spout. The funnel further includes a float-control valve 11, 12 and a permanent magnet 10 which influences the closing movement of the valve. The funnel includes a spring 9 which in the active state of the float counterbalances an essential part of its intrinsic weight, and a constriction 11 provided upstream of the float is configured so that the flow area 8 through the construction is smaller than the flow area between the spout and the float.
