Abstract: A method for assembling a hollow cylinder on, or removing a hollow cylinder from, a further cylinder. The hollow cylinder includes a body with openings for creating an air cushion within a first portion of a shell and a second portion of the shell is gas-impervious or has openings for creating an air cushion of a reduced quantity and/or size compared to the first portion. The openings are connected to a gas feed and a gas inlet inside the body. The further cylinder has openings on a shell and gas is fed though the openings via an internal gas supply. An assembly method includes providing the hollow cylinder, applying a seal to the first portion to prevent escape of gas from the first portion, providing the further cylinder, applying gas to the further cylinder so that gas escapes from the openings, and pushing the hollow cylinder onto the further cylinder.

Abstract: A cylinder is arranged to receive one or more hollow cylinders on an outer surface of the cylinder. The cylinder has at least one movable stop with at least one movable element. In an idle position the at least one movable element does not protrude beyond the outer surface of the cylinder and allows hollow cylinders to be slid over the cylinder, and in an active position it protrudes beyond the outer surface of the cylinder and acts as a mechanical stop for hollow cylinders. The at least one movable element can be moved from the idle position to the active position, and vice versa, by means of a rotary movement. A method for positioning a hollow cylinder on a cylinder of this kind.

Abstract: A vehicle includes at least one of (i) an undercarriage and an upper carriage arranged rotatably about a vertical axis with respect to the undercarriage and (ii) a leverage means arranged pivotably about a horizontal axis with respect to the upper carriage, wherein a sensor system is provided for monitoring at least one stability criterion with respect of a tilt movement of the vehicle, and wherein a control unit is coupled to the sensor system for automatically initiating an action and/or performing an action for stabilizing the vehicle depending on the at least one stability criterion. The risk of an unexpected tilting of the vehicle can be reduced.

Abstract: The invention comprises a reflector with a fastening device for an animal collar. The reflector includes a base plate with an inner surface and an outer surface. A clip, which is substantially U-shaped, runs over the inner surface, the end of the first leg of the clip being fastened by means of a movable connection to a first side of the base plate, and the end of the second leg being suitable for being irreversibly fastened to a side of the base plate opposite from the first side. On the outer surface of the base plate there are triple prisms. On the inner surface of the base plate there is/are one or more spacers. The invention also comprises a collar containing an active substance which can leave the collar over the entire length. At least one of the reflectors according to the invention is fastened to the collar.

Abstract: The invention relates to an applicator for the application of liquid or pasty media, containing a housing for receiving a dosing unit and an adapter for fastening a container, for the medium to be applied, to the applicator; a dose setting means; a lever for the application of the apportioned amount, the lever interacting mechanically with the dosing unit and with the dose setting means. The lever is mounted moveably at its proximal end within the housing. The distal end of the lever spreads apart from the housing, with the distance of the distal end of the lever from the housing being dependent on the dose set.

Abstract: The invention relates to a UV additive for aminoplast resins, to a method for producing a UV additive as well as to uses thereof.

Abstract: A data processing system includes a data memory, in which data are stored, the data representing a set of predetermined geometrical basic forms and a set of geometrical operations that can be applied to the basic forms. The basic forms form place markers for electronic components in the layout. In other words, each component is represented by a geometrical basic form or a combination of a plurality of geometrical basic forms. The basic forms can be altered during the layout design by application of the geometrical operations. Such alteration creates a large margin of freedom in the design. On the other hand, the unaltered original basic forms are examined for verification of the layout design. As a result, the verification is simplified and “dummy” errors that are often a consequence of the complexity of a design are avoided. A method for designing the layout with the system is also provided.
