Abstract: A fastening arrangement of a machine base (8) of a machine on foundations (1). The fastening arrangement includes a foundation recess (3), filled with concrete (71, 72) and having an inner anchor shank (4), a foundation plate (2) of steel on the foundation (1), the machine base (8) on the foundation plate (2), an anti-fatigue bolt/stud bolt (9) restraining the machine against the foundation (1), the anti-fatigue bolt/stud bolt (9) being screwed into the anchor shank (4). The anchor shank (4) has at least two threaded disks (5) arranged offset from one another. The anti-fatigue bolt/stud bolt (9) screwed into the anchor shank (4) is passed through the foundation plate (2) and the machine base (8).

Abstract: The present invention relates to real-time, automated marketing programs implementing one or more program rules matrix modules that calculate benefits to customers based on one or more customer identifier(s), one or more merchant identifier(s) and one or more customer behavior(s). In one embodiment, program rules matrix modules implement Points Multiplier Program(s) that award benefits in an accelerated fashion, based upon one or more qualifying customer identifier(s), merchant identifier(s), and customer behavior(s). Marketing programs are implemented using a host controller that communicates with a plurality of remote transaction systems to provide real-time, individualized, automated awards and sophisticated multi-variable analysis of transaction data. Another aspect of the present invention relates to systems and methods implementing a plurality of marketing programs, offered by a plurality of merchants or merchant groups, upon presentation of a qualifying identifier, such as a (single) transaction card.

Abstract: A piston and cylinder assembly for a gas powered gun, has a cylinder containing a piston rod slidably movable between a loading position in which the leading end of the piston rod is in a withdrawn position, and a firing position in which the piston rod has moved forwardly. The cylinder has first and second chambers through which the piston rod extends, the cylinder being connectable to a pressurized gas supply supplying pressurized gas to the first chamber when the piston rod is in the loading position. The piston rod permits communication between the pressurized gas supply and the first chamber and prevents communication between the first and second chambers when in the loading position, and when in the firing position prevents communication between the pressurized gas supply and the first chamber and permits communication between the first chamber and the second chamber to cause pressurized gas in the first chamber to pass into the second chamber.
