Abstract: A container forming device comprises a container conveyor (21) having a plurality of holders (34) and intermittently drivable so as to halt the holders at an ear bonding station in succession, an upper ear pressing member (61) disposed above the ear bonding station so as to be movable upward or downward for pressing upper ears against an upper wall of a container body, and a pair of lower ear pressing members (62) arranged at opposite sides of the ear bonding station so as to be openable or closable for pressing lower ears against respective side walls of the container body. Each of the holders comprises a bottom plate (51) extending in parallel to a container transport path, and a side plate (52) projecting upward from the bottom plate and extending orthogonal to the container transport path. The bottom plates of each pair of adjacent holders are adapted to place the container body thereon, with the side plates of the adjacent holders holding the container body therebetween. The device further comprises lock members (91) for locking the side plates of the adjacent holders so as not to permit upper ends of the side plates to move away from each other when the upper ear pressing member and the lower ear pressing members press the ears against the container body. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Nestable hatch cover (1), in particular of the "Frisian cap" type, for covering a hatchway giving access to a vessel's hold (3), which hatchway is bounded by two hatch beams (4) situated opposite each other. The hatch cover (1) has two end parts (12) situated opposite each other, each provided underneath with a bearing surface which is designed to rest upon said hatch beams (4), and each forming an outermost end of the hatch cover. In order to keep the clear width of the gangways of the vessel as great as possible or to be able to make the hatchway as wide as possible, in particular so wide that the maximum number of containers can be stacked in the hold (3), the bearing surfaces below the end parts (12) are bounded on their outside by at least one projection (27) projecting below said bearing surfaces, which projection in each case is situated substantially at one of the abovementioned outermost ends of the hatch cover (1). Compared with the known hatch covers, this hatch cover therefore projects less far beyond the hatch beams. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tube reactor (2) for performing exothermic gas phase reactions comprising a reaction tube bundle (8), that extends in a sealed manner between two tube end plates (4, 6), that carries a reaction gas and is surrounded by a heat carrier inside a surrounding reactor shell (10). The tube reactor also includes a cowl (18, 20) that spans the respective tube plates (4, 6) and is connected to a gas inlet and a gas discharge line, respectively. Inside the cowl (18) on the gas inlet side adjacent to a first gas supply chamber (28), connected to the inside of the reaction tubes (16), is located a separately fed second gas supply chamber (30) with its own tube end plate (32) that is connected to separate gas supply tubes (34) suitable for a second reaction gas. The separate gas supply tubes reach into the gas inlet end or reach to directly before the gas inlet ends of the reaction tubes (16). This avoids early admixing of an explosion-critical reactant into the reaction gas stream using relatively simple and practical means of construction, which in turn improves the ability to load the reaction gas stream with this reactant.

Abstract: A speed controller operates a DC-powered fastener drive assembly to efficiently drive fasteners from a DC power supply, thereby achieving a fully portable hand tool. In particular, the speed controller accelerates a flywheel with a DC motor to a target speed appropriate for the type of fastener and user selection. Thereafter, the speed controller causes the kinetic energy from the flywheel to be imparted to a linearly moving fastener driver. The speed controller is responsive to the rotational speed of the flywheel to ensure a consistent depth of drive and to actuate a clutch for an appropriate amount of time to couple the flywheel to the fastener driver. Thereby, consistent drives are achievement across a range of operating conditions (e.g., battery state of charge, type of fastener, mechanical tolerances and wear, motor performance, etc.).
