Abstract: A conveying device which articles supplied intermittently in a plurality of rows are discharged continuously in a single row, comprising a rotational conveying mechanism (23) and a reciprocating driving mechanism (24). The rotational conveying mechanism (23) roationally conveys numerous empty-bag holding members disposed at equal intervals in one direction along a ring-form track (or race-track path) which has a pair of parallel sections, and the reciprocating driving mechanism (24) causes the rotational conveying mechanism (23) as a whole to perform a reciprocating movement through a specified distance along the parallel sections of the ring-form track. On a supply side (A) of the parallel sections, the empty-bag holding members are moved intermittently by a distance that is equal to an integral multiple of an attachment spacing of the empty-bag holding members; while on a discharge side of the parallel sections, the empty-bag holding members are moved continuously at a constant speed. Empty-bags (W) are supplied to the empty-bag holding members when the empty-bag holding members are stopped on the supply side (A) and these empty-bags (W) are discharged downward from the empty-bag holding members on the discharge side of the parallel sections and inserted into grooves of retainers (R) that are conveyed at a constant speed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Before the excavator is moved with its rail wheels (6) on the track, the actual relative position between upper body and lower chassis is determined using a detector unit (20). This generates a relative position signal and transmits it to a regulator device (22) with computer (21). The device generates a control signal, which causes connection of the rod chambers (23) of two piston-cylinder-units (8.1,8.2), and hydraulic connection between the cylinder chambers (25.1,25,2) of the units and an oil reservoir (28).

Abstract: A method and pipe-bending tool for manufacturing a pipe-offset for a connector at the end of a pipe, needed in the extension of the connector of the pipe of a pipe layer installed on a surface in which said pipe-offset for the connector, i.e. two consecutive bends are manufactured close to the end of the pipe due to the need of space of the connector, in order to move the end of the pipe in parallel to a certain distance from the level of the pipe layer. The bends are produced by placing the pipe between two lasts of a handheld tool, which are pressed against each other with the help of an operating device and in which there exists a pipe-offset of the connector, i.e. forms equal to both bends. The lasts are able to turn at least in a limited manner around the axle in the direction of the pressure, whereby the lasts can easily be turned in the direction of the pipe.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif mécanique (10) microélectrique à substrat microélectronique (40), microactionneur (20) placé sur ce substrat (40) et formé sur un matériau cristallin unique, et au moins une structure métallique (30) disposée sur le substrat (40) en position adjacente au microactionneur (20), de sorte que la structure métallique (30) soit sensiblement sur le même plan que le microactionneur (20) et soit activée par ce microactionneur. Par exemple, le dispositif peut être un microrelais (10), lequel peut comprendre une paire de structures métalliques (32, 34) mises en contact sous contrôle par activation sélective du microactionneur. Le dispositif peut comprendre divers microactionneurs et, selon une variante, le microactionneur est actionné en mode thermique, l'avantage étant que ce type de microactionneur comporte une paire de supports espacés (22), placés sur le substrat, et au moins un élément arqué (24) qui s'étend entre les deux supports. En chauffant ce ou ces éléments (24), on en accentue la courbure. Selon une autre variante, il s'agit d'un microactionneur électrostatique comprenant un rotor stationnaire et une navette mobile. L'application d'une polarisation électrique entre le stator et la navette entraîne un déplacement de la navette par rapport au stator. Ainsi, à l'activation, le microactionneur passe d'une première position dans laquelle le microactionneur est espacé de la ou des structures métalliques à une seconde position dans laquelle le microactionneur sollicite la ou les structures métalliques en mode opérationnel. L'invention concerne également plusieurs procédés avantageux relatifs à la fabrication du dispositif considéré (à composants cristallins uniques et à composants métalliques).

Abstract: A direct injection internal combustion engine, especially an Otto engine, is provided with layered lean operation and internal exhaust-gas recirculation. An exhaust-gas aftertreatment for reducing Nox using an Nox storage catalyst is also provided. This combination is to achieve the highest possible exhaust-gas recirculation rates with the lowest HC and Nox emission values. A tumble flow is provided for the incoming fresh gases, which may contain recirculated exhaust gas from external exhaust-gas recirculation. The swirl axis of the incoming fresh gases therefore extends substantially crosswise to the piston movement. This results in an emissions-reducing, optimal mixture inside the cylinder during the layered lean operation.
