Abstract: The fastening (3) consists of a coupling element (6) which is fixed to the upper surface of the ski (2). It engages with a pin (9) projecting from the sole of the boot (1) in a zone between the tips of the toes and the metatarsal-phalangeal joints. It also incorporates a control member which provides a permanent direct or indirect contact between the tip of the boot sole and the ski when the heel is raised. <??>The control member has a stop (18) which limits the upward flexible movement of the coupling element (6) in relation to the ski. It also has a transverse guide for the coupling element, which is in the form of a metal wire or a spring vane with a hook-shaped end (7) for engaging with the boot sole pin (9) by the action of the fastening control lever (5).

Abstract: A fastening component may be the hook portion (910) or the loop portion of a typical fastener. The fastening elements and the base (910) may be unitary or of different precursors. The porous metal layer (915) may be embedded in the base portion (910) of the fastening component, or any backing substrate (930), or therebetween. The porous metal layer (915) may be fully or partially embedded. The porous metal (915) may be an expanded, perforated, woven or non-woven structure. The porous metal layer (915) may be incorporated into the substrate (930) that is formed from a precursor element that is separate from the base (910), and that is joined to the base (910). The porous metal layer (915) may also be located between the fastening elements, such as the hooks (916) or loops, and a protective cover, part of whose function is to provide foaming material from fouling the fastening elements. The porous metal containing layer (915) may be wholly metal, or it may be a composite of a non-metal phase and a metal phase. Rather than using a separate substrate (930) layer for anchoring such a fastener into a molded article being molded, a three-dimensional pattern may be embossed on the non-fastening surface of the fastener to aid in securing it to the molded article.

Abstract: The screen has a multitude of wrap-around grill nodes (14) separated from one another by bars (19), each having a surface similar to that of their own rectangle. The boundary edges (15,16) of each node form acute corners (18) opposite from one another and two rounded corners (17) also opposite one another. The grill node is located so that, with nodes of the same size, the bars between their neighbouring boundary edges are of the same length. The boundary edges follow a curved line and are parallel to their opposite edge. Two boundary edges extending from a rounded corner begin following a convex curve, then inflect and follow a concave curve. The converse happens at the acute corners.

Abstract: A low emission power generating apparatus which comprises a modified two-stroke diesel engine component and a modified turbocharger component which has a relatively low aspect ratio. The diesel engine component is a modification of a conventional two-stroke diesel engine design and includes an exhaust valve cam of unique design that has a cam profile which results in a later-than-normal exhaust valve opening and an earlier-than-normal valve closing so that the time during which the exhaust valve remains open is shorter than normal, thereby causing a substantially greater volume of residual gases to remain in the combustion chamber following the scavenge stroke. This increase in the volume of the residual exhaust gases within the chamber leads to an increase in compression temperature and effectively increases the compression ratio and consequently the compression pressure. Because of the heat absorption capacity of these residual exhaust gases, the exhaust gases remaining in the chamber following the scavenge stroke tend to absorb combustion heat and thereby effectively reduce the peak combustion temperature. This reduction in peak combustion temperature advantageously results in the lower than normal production of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and, therefore, allows advancement of the injection timing, while still maintaining the NOx emissions coming from the engine lower than those legislatively mandated.
