Abstract: A cutting apparatus having a modular profiled casing for cutting plants and intended, in particular, for equipping vine trimmers. The modular profiled casing is made up of a number of cutting elements attached longitudinally to one another for the purpose of reciprocal drive by at least one motor with one of the cutting heads being integral in rotation with the other cutting heads through a system of double pulleys and belts. All the cutting elements are connected together and covered by the same profiled cover having a convex profile forming a leading edge and includes a vegetation detector forming a trailing edge that, respectively, facilitate the penetration and displacement of the casing in the vegetation and the removal of cut branches.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular profiled casing for cutting plants intended in particular for equipping vine trimmers. Said modular profiled casing made up of a number of cutting elements attached longitudinally to one another for the purpose of reciprocal drive by at least one motor (30) equipping one of the cutting heads (111) integral in rotation with the other cutting heads (112, 211) by means of a system of double pulleys and belts, characterized mainly in that all the cutting elements are connected together by the same profiled cover (60), by a convex profile (50) forming a leading edge and by a vegetation deflector (70) forming a trailing edge, respectively facilitating the penetration and displacement of the casing in the vegetation and the removal of cut branches.

Abstract: A leaf stripper includes several nozzles mounted at the end of branch pipes that are radially integral with a rotary compressed gas dispenser. The nozzles move along concentric circles with different radii behind a vegetation deflector. The deflector includes gas jet circulating and controlling structures such as circular slots with radii corresponding to that of the circumferences described by the nozzles.

Abstract: A device (1) for carrying out continuous electrolytic precipitation processes has a cathodic live cylinder (3) whose top surface is electroconductive over its whole useful width. An anode A is arranged concentrically to and spaced apart from the cathodic live cylinder (3). An electrolyte flows through the space (6) separating the live cylinder (3) from the anode A. Shielding strips (9, 9′) associated to the live cylinder (3) are located between the cathodic surface of the live cylinder (3) and the anode A and electrically shield the marginal regions of the live cylinder (3), thus protecting them from electrolytic coating. The useful region N of the live cylinder (3) for carrying out the electrolytic precipitation processes is located between the shielding strips (9, 9′).

Abstract: A multi-purpose, all terrain vehicle with four independently suspended driving wheels and high ground clearance. The vehicle height can be independently controlled at each wheel to maintain the vehicle chassis level over rough terrain. Further, the front wheels can be steered together but independently of the rear wheels, which are also steerable together so that the vehicle is capable of extremely tight turns and movement in a direction at an angle to its longitudinal axis. The configuration of the vehicle provides substantial flexibility of the installation of working accessories to the front, rear and middle of the vehicle chassis.
