Abstract: A mountable vehicle implement (10) is provided and comprises a mounting region at or towards one end for mounting the implement on a vehicle (20). The implement is height adjustable to adjust the height of the mounting region, and the implement comprises means for adjusting the angle of the mounting region so that it is matched to a cooperating mounting region on a vehicle.

Abstract: A repairable plough for mine and area clearance is provided and comprises a main support frame and a blade formed from a plurality of modular blade sections that are detachably connected to the main support frame.

Abstract: In an in-line pipe inspection tool, sensors for inspecting the pipe are mounted on sensor blocks moveable relative to the body of the tool. However, when the sensor blocks move radially to conform to different pipe diameters, the circumferential distances between the sensors changes. To ameliorate the effect of this, the sensor blocks have a shape such that one axial edge of each sensor block circumferentially overlaps the opposite edge of an adjacent sensor block. With such an arrangement, when the sensor block are operating at minimum diameter, part of one sensor block will overlap an adjacent block, in the circumferential direction. As the diameter of the pipeline in which the pig is used increases, the degree of overlap will reduce, and may even reduce to zero, but there will still be no overall axial gaps between the sensor blocks. Thus, by suitable shaping of the sensor blocks the tool can be used with a wide range of pipe diameters.

Abstract: Vehicle parts of a pipeline pig are connected by a pivotable joint. The joint comprises first and second part-spherical hollow shells joined together, each shell having an aperture therein, said apertures being aligned, said first shell being mounted in a curved recess in said first vehicle part to the pivotable therein part, said second shell being mounted in a curved recess in said second vehicle part to the pivotable therein, the first and second vehicle parts each having ducts leading to the joint and communicating with said apertures and wherein pipeline pig harnessing passes between the vehicle parts through said ducts and said apertures.

Abstract: A book has two covers and a set of book pages contained between the covers. The covers close to form a shape which has an external appearance resembling the head of a creature. The two covers are joined to one another along a minor portion of the periphery of the covers and are connected along the remaining portion of the said periphery by a releasable fastener such that the pages of the book can be accessed by releasing the fastener and hinging open the two covers about the minor portion of the periphery.

Abstract: A loose-leaf book, published with the pages collected in a binder, is updated by publishing new pages for the book on the internet, having users download those pages and then punch or otherwise modify the downloaded pages so that they fit in the binder and conform to the format of the existing pages.

Abstract: A rectangular box 10 that can be made from folded card. The box 10 has a slip case 22 for holding a book 28 and an internal space 26 for storing objects. The internal space 26 is divided from the slip case 22 by a partition wall 20 extending between the top and bottom 16,17 faces of the box 10. The internal space 26 has a window 30 so that its content can be inspected, and a flap 18 for covering the window 30.

Abstract: A book has two covers and a set of book pages contained between the covers. The covers close to form a shape which has an external appearance resembling the head of a creature, with two eyes and a mouth. The two covers are joined to one another along a minor portion of the circumference, and are connected along the remaining portion of the said circumference by a releasable fastener such as a zip such that the fastener (the zip) forms the mouth. The pages of the book can be accessed by releasing the fastener and hinging open the two covers about the minor portion of the circumference.
