Abstract: The clutch has a plate-like diaphragm spring loading a contact pressure plate. The spring (10) has an angled section (13) directed towards the flat contact side (9) of the pressure plate (5), to apply a load to the plate. The section is at right angles to the spring plane, and consists of a single radial ring or several ring sections. Facing contact areas of pressure plate and/or angled section are formed to be low-wear and/or low-friction, e.g. these areas are hardened or have a low-wear and/or low-friction coating, or carry a component (15) with these characteristics. The contact pressure plate is of steel, or is a cast metal part.

Abstract: The cladding to seal the inner wall of a tunnel, against damp and moisture, has plastics sealing layers (6,6a) between the outer side of the inner concrete support shell and the concrete cladding of the tunnel drilling and/or the steel structure. The sealing layers and/or protective layer are held by curved spring profiles (7a,7b) within channels (8) formed in the cladding. The profiles follow the curvature of the tunnel wall, and bending to shape gives them the spring character to press the cladding against the tunnel wall. The cladding is composed of a plastics film (6) and/or a waterproof bonded nonwoven (6a) of synthetic fibers, laminated together.

Abstract: A commercial vehicle is described, in particular a field tractor, with a single wheel suspension for unarticulated driven wheels, using transverse swinging arms which are articulated on both sides to a gear box and which guide the wheel supports.Single wheel suspensions are known with transverse swinging arms for guiding the wheel supports. However, these wheel suspensions are either complicated in their structure or are susceptible to damage to the cardan shaft for driving the wheels.A commercial vehicle with a technically simple single wheel suspension for the wheels mounted in wheel supports, guaranteeing safe protection of the cardan shaft driving the wheels from harmful influences, includes a wheel support (8; 33), whicha) together with a spring arm (7; 35) forms a longitudinal swinging arm (16; 21; 37) which is articulated to the gearbox (1) in front of the wheel (4) in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle,b) extends directly to the gearbox (2; 25; 32) andc) fully receives the cardan shaft (12) arranged between the output shaft (5) of the gearbox (2; 25;32) and the assigned wheel shaft (10).The wheel support extending to the gearbox therefore provides the cardan shaft lying in the power flux from the output shaft of the gear to the wheel drive shaft protection against mechanical damage and harmful environmental influences.

Abstract: During the chamfering of the edge (6) of the lens, the edge is scanned by a plane light beam (23) which forms a linear light mark (24). An image of the light mark is formed in an optical reception system (26). This image is used to monitor and control the machining process.  The procedure provides chamfering for the edge (6) of a an ophthalmic lens (1), during which the edges of the lens are removed successively in order to define the chamfered edge (6). During this process, the edge (6) of the lens is scanned by a plane light beam (23) which forms a linear light mark (24). At the same time an image of the light mark is formed in an optical reception system (26). From this it is possible to deduce the successive positions of the image, and hence the position of the chamfer formed on the edge of the lens. The process is carried out whilst the lens is mounted to rotate about an axis (A1), whilst its edge is in contact with the chamfering tool. The relative position of the lens and the tool are adjusted as a function of the light mark detection.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for de-prioritizing mobile-to-mobile calls in favor of mobile-to-landline calls in a communication system. De-prioritizing mobile-to-mobile calls, which are less sensitive to infrastructure delays due to to their bypass of encoding and decoding steps, allows more delay sensitive mobile-to-landline calls requiring extra processing time due to encoding and decoding to be transmitted over a communication system first. A control processor creates a modified FIFO queue to effect a queuing scheme to de-prioritize mobile-to-mobile calls. Application of the de-prioritizing scheme in a packet based network affords an increase in the quality of mobile-landline calls while not adversely affecting quality of service for mobile-to-mobile calls.

Abstract: The installation is designed to transfer liquefied gas from a first surface reservoir (8) to a second surface reservoir (6) using a transfer line (28) designed to be connected to the reservoirs. The two reservoirs are spaced apart during the transfer and the transfer line is immersed in the water  The first and second reservoirs are more than 300 m apart, and preferably more than 1 marine mile, during the transfer. A first terminal (8) carries the first reservoir and a second terminal (22), in particular a loading buoy, is spaced from the first terminal so the transfer line extends between the two terminals. The second terminal is designed to connect the transfer line to a loading pipe (24) with connectors (25) to the second reservoir carried by a vessel. The transfer line has a main rigid section (32) which is horizontal in the layer of water where dynamic movements are reduced and flexible sections (40, 42) which are vertical and which connect the ends of the main section to the terminals and ensure continuity of liquid gas transport and absorb the dynamic movements. The main rigid section is in a layer of water where the maximum speed of the current is less than 1 m/s, preferably less than 0.5 m/s. The main section and the flexible sections of the transfer line have an internal transfer line and an external casing defining an annular space which extends the whole length of the transfer line and which is thermally insulated. The annular space is connected to means of evacuation so the space is held at a pressure below atmosphere, preferably below 100 mbar, more preferably below 30 mbar. The annular space is also placed under inert gas, in particular nitrogen. The installation includes means of verifying that the envelope and/or the pipe are leakproof. This is done using a detector of pressure variation in the annular space and delivers an alarm signal when the pressure variation is above a set value. Alternatively, a sensor detects the presence of one of the components of the liquefied gas in the annular space, in particular CH4, or detecting a drop in the amount of inert gas in the annular space. The internal pipe in the main section has a compensator (76, 78) at at least one end and the variation in length allowed by the compensator is at least the variation in length of the rigid part subject to the variation between the water temperature and the temperature of the liquefied gas. The main rigid section is suspended from a balancing body (94) which is designed to give it floatability or ballast. The main rigid section is suspended from the two terminals or anchored to the seabed by an anchor line. The main rigid section is a bundle of parallel pipes which include a pipe for returning the liquefied gas to the gaseous state, which passes from the second to the first reservoir.
