Abstract: A hedge cutter having at least two cutting bars, movable relatively of each other and the cutting bars each have cutting edges, at least a part of which are provided with denticulations. Preferably, the cutting edge of each cutting bar is inclined at an angle running obliquely outwardly from the surface of each cutting bar with a cutting angle between substantially 30° and 50°. The opposed cutting teeth of the cutting bars may be arranged symmetrically, asymmetrically or anti-symmetrically.

Abstract: A composite push-pull bar for use in a rail vehicle includes end-side connecting elements for axial introduction of compressive and tractive forces; and a rod-shaped structural element disposed between the end-side connecting elements for take-up and transmission of compressive and tractive forces. The rod-shaped element comprises a longitudinally extending core, a prestressed composite winding, including a defined number of wrappings of one or several reinforcing fibers embedded in a cured matrix material, applied in a longitudinal direction of the core so as to leave opposite longitudinal sides of the core not covered by the winding, the winding extending over the connecting elements and two skins arranged on the opposite longitudinal sides of the core not covered by the winding to form a sandwich structure with the core and which remain rigid under compression in their longitudinal direction.
