Abstract: In a method of hot rolling a metal slab in order to in­
crease its width, a pair of opposite faces of the slab are hot 
rolled to produce a groove in each of the faces but the lateral 
edges of the faces are not rolled and, thereafter, the slab is 
passed between a pair of cylindrical rolls in order to reduce 
the slab to uniform thickness. Preferably, an additional step 
is included in which the initially formed grooves are widened 
by additional rolling before the thickness of the slab is re­
duced to a uniform value.

Abstract: A backlash reducer for a gear transmission system com­
prises a main gear and an auxiliary gear which form one of a 
driving gear and a driven gear in mesh therewith of the gear 
transmission system. The main gear is mounted on a rotary 
shaft for rotation therewith, and the auxiliary gear is mounted 
on the rotary shaft for rotation relative thereto. A backlash 
reducing mechanism is operable in response to a centrifugal 
force due to rotation of the rotary shaft for angularly moving 
the main and auxiliary gears relative to each other to reduce a 
backlash between the driving and driven gears. The backlash 
reducer may further comprise a mechanism for restraining 
the backlash reducing action of the backlash reducing 
mechanism. Alternatively, the backlash reducer may com­
prise a first mechanism operable in response to the centrifug­
al force to move the auxiliary gear axially thereof and a second 
mechanism for converting the axial movement of the auxili­
ary gear to circumferential movement thereof.

(37) is sealingly coupled to the first connecting portion in 
a rotatable and axially slidable way and acts on a pusher 
stem (42) which engages the sealing disk (31) to shift it 
from the cutoff to an air passage position for set-up and/or 
restoring pneumatic connection between the tire valve and 
the pressure detector.

Title: Central lubrication system for vehicles
IPC: B60R17/02
Filed: 1987-06-11
Abstract: A control system for a central lubrication system with an electrically operated lubrication pump for vehicles without their own power source, such as trailers, carriers for utility vehicle, etc., includes an electrical time-controlling device to activate the lubrication pump as a function of the operating time of the vehicle. Power is supplied to the time-controller device and the drive motor for the lubrication pump via the feed lines for the brake light. The time-controlling device has a sensor which detects motion of the vehicle or parts of the vehicle and generates a signal for a second timer during such motion. The second timer adds the durations of the signals sent from the sensor, compares the sum of the durations to a predefined pause time and, when the predefined pause time is exceeded, sends a signal to a third timer, which is thus enabled and in turn sends an enable signal for the activation of the drive motor of the lubrication pump during the next braking operation; the third timing signal adds the durations of successive braking operations during which the drive motor of the lubrication pump is activated, compares the sum of the durations with a predefined operating time and, upon reaching the predefined operating time, sends a signal to the second timer, whereby the enable signal sent from the second timer, and consequently also the enable signal for the activation of the drive motor of the lubrication pump, are cancelled.

Filed: 1987-02-20
Abstract: A coupler (figure 4) comprising a pair of interwined 
monomode fibres (41 and 42) optically coupled along a 
portion of their length. The diameter of one fibre (42) 
is significantly smaller than that of the other and this 
fibre (42) is thus wound helically. A helical pitch (Λ) 
not exceeding 10mm is chosen. For such pitch, the smaller 
diameter fibre (42) is appreciably longer. The following 
inequality thus holds:-  
λ c .L/ΔL 
</= L c : where λ c  is the design wavelengt 
ΔL/L is the difference in fibre lengths per unit length, 
and L c  is the interaction length of the coupler. The 
signal coupling of the coupler is than a strongly peaked 
function of wavelength. The coupler is suited to 
wavelength multiplex/demultiplex applications.

Abstract: Apparatus for processing a roll of self-developing type 
film (82). The film (82) and a length of flexible sheet material 
(66) are unwound from their respective spools (84, 64) and 
laminated to each other with a layer of processing liquid 
located therebetween prior to being wound as a laminate 
upon a rotating drum (32). After the formation of a visible 
image within the film, a drive train is energised to drive the 
spools (84, 64) in a direction which unwinds the laminate 
from the drum (32) and simultaneously rewinds the film and 
sheet material upon their spools. The drive train is con­
tinuously connected to the drives for the spools and includes 
a clutch arrangement which insures that the rotation of the 
drum in an unwinding direction is under the control of the 
sheet material drive while the torque is delivered to the film 
drive keeps the film taut without becoming the dominant 
force in rotating the drum.
