Abstract: A welding apparatus to be applied to a welding method of a non-contact type comprises a pair of clamp devices (16,18) for clamping tubular members (12,14) made of a thermoplastic resin, and a heater for heating to melt end faces of the tubular members, wherein the clamp devices and heater (20) are arranged to be movable by respective drive devices (30). A control unit controls the drive devices in such a manner that after completion of fusion of the end faces of the tubular members, the heater is moved to a withdrawn position and thereafter one of the clamp devices is moved in a predetermined direction to bring the end faces into contact with each other. Further, the control unit controls the drive device so that after contact of the end faces with each other, the clamp device is further moved by a predetermined amount. The time period between completion of fusion of the end faces and contact of the end faces with each other is set to a time in which the end faces are prevented from reaching a state unsuitable for welding, and the speed of movement of the clamp device after contact of the end faces with each other is kept approximately constant. By this means, the bead formed in the weld portion between the tubular members is made substantially constant and desired weld strength is attained.

Abstract: A single shaft shifting mechanism (41) is disclosed of the type including a single shaft (43) mounted for relative rotational movement in a housing (17). The mechanism includes an input shift lever (47) and coupling means operable to translate movement of the shift lever into rotational movement of the single shaft (43), which has a centered position (FIG. 3) and at least one displaced position (FIG. 4) disposed at an angle (A) relative to the centered position. The single shaft (43) defines an axis of rotation (R) and the coupling means defines a ball and socket connection defining a pivot axis (a) cooperating with the axis of rotation (R) to define a vertical dimension (Z). The shift lever includes a block member (47) defining a socket (53) and the single shaft (43) includes a member (57) including a ball (55) pivotably received within the socket. Rotation of the single shaft (43) from the centered position to the displaced position through the angle (A) requires movement of the pivot axis (a) only a distance (X), wherein:       X = Z sin A.           
 The result is substantially reduced movement of the input shift lever in the vehicle cab.

Abstract: Cyclic polysiloxanes are produced by continuously passing a feed comprising linear polysiloxanes through a reactor containing a solid acidic catalyst at a pressure greater than one atmosphere under an inert atmosphere to produce a mixture comprising volatile cyclic polysiloxanes, nonvolatile reaction products, and unreacted linear polysiloxanes. The volatile products can then be recovered, and the nonvolatile reaction products and unreacted linear polysiloxanes can be added to the linear polysiloxane feed to form a recycle stream that is passed back through the reactor. Recycling increases the yield of the desired cyclic species.

Abstract: A utility vehicle, such as a grape harvester (1), comprises a straddling frame (2), supported at its front and rear ends by double-acting hydraulic cylinders (17, 18 and 23, 24), which can be extended or retracted for levelling the frame (2). During horizontal or uphill travel, the rear cylinders (23, 24) are blocked for providing the vehicle (1) with a fixed rear axle (55), while the front cylinders (16, 17) are hydraulically interconnected in order to let them extend or retract in opposition to each other for providing the vehicle (1) with an oscillating front axle (56). During downhill travel the front cylinders (17, 18) are blocked for fixing said front axle (56) to the frame (2) and the rear cylinders (23, 24) are hydraulically interconnected for letting the rear axle (55) oscillate to the frame (2). The rear and front oscillation is controlled by an inclination sensor (91). This control system on the one hand provides improved stability to the vehicle (1) when working on sloping ground and on the other hand ensures full ground contact for all wheels.
