  • Patent number: 10724614
    Abstract: A gear arrangement for transforming a linear force and/or motion into a rotational torque and/or motion and vice versa. The arrangement comprises; a rack (10, 110, 210, 510, 1010, 2010, 3010, 4010) exhibiting a longitudinal axis (A) and at least one toothed side extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rack, the rack being reciprocally movable along its longitudinal axis. At least two pinions (20, 120, 220, 520, 1020, 2020, 3020, 4020, 5020) are arranged such that each pinion is rotationally meshing with a toothed side of the rack. Each pinion is fixed to a respective first primary gear (30, 130, 230, 530, 1030, 2030, 3030, 4030, 5030) arranged at a first axial side of the pinion. At least two first primary gears are mechanically connected to a common out- or input shaft (60, 160, 560, 1060), such that the at least two first primary gears transmit torque to or from the first out- or input shaft.

  • Publication number: 20140196168
    Abstract: A method for producing a genetically modified plant with increased tolerance and/or resistance to water deficit and/or salt as compared to a corresponding non-genetically modified wild type plant is provided. Furthermore, a genetically modified annual or perennial crop plant having increased tolerance and/or resistance to water deficit and/or salt as compared to a corresponding non-genetically modified wild type plant is provided, said plants being capable of achieving a higher plant biomass under conditions of water deficit or soil salt salinity.

  • Publication number: 20100314467
    Abstract: A thermal spraying device includes an arrangement for generating a flame and an arrangement for injecting a powder into the flame, the flame-generating means including an end piece out of an outlet of which the flame is directed towards a substrate subjected to spraying, and the powder-injection arrangement includes a frame element that projects in the flame ejection direction from the end piece, that at least partly surrounds a flame zone extending from the end piece, and that presents an inner circumference that is larger than the inner circumference of the outlet, and at least one powder port for the introduction of a powder to the flame being arranged on the inner periphery of the frame element at a distance from the outlet of the end piece as seen in the flame ejection direction. There is provided at least one gas injection opening in the frame element, the gas injection opening being located between the outlet of the end piece and the at least one powder port as seen in the flame ejection direction.
