Abstract: la présente invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de déterminer la symétrie et l'état de la géométrie Ackermann sur la direction d'un véhicule. Pour la détermination de la symétrie de la direction, le système selon l'invention prend en compte les écarts entre les angles de pincement des roues directrices. Ainsi, cette opération se fait sans référence à des spécifications. La symétrie est fonction d'angles de pincement normalisés. Par voie de conséquence, il est superflu de positionner les roues directrices selon un angle spécifique. Par ailleurs, la présente invention permet de déterminer la symétrie de la direction sans devoir braquer les roues directrices sur un angle important. Les efforts pour faire tourner les roues dans l'atelier s'en trouvent réduits d'autant. Avec cette invention, on dispose d'une technique d'alignement améliorée reposant sur la détermination de la symétrie du système de direction. L'invention permet de déterminer la géométrie Ackermann à partir d'angles Ackermann théoriques.

Abstract: The cable has an at least two-layer basic structure twisted about the longitudinal axis so the cross-sectional area is constant and does not change in position along the conductor. The position of each strand in the cross-section changes periodically along the length of the conductor. The conductor is twisted and folded and laid on itself no more than once while preserving the position of the now at least 4-layer cross-section over its length.  The conductor has an at least two-layer basic structure with one strand always between the same two strands and twisted about the longitudinal axis so the cross-sectional area is constant and does not change in position along the conductor. The position of each strand in the cross-section changes periodically along the length of the conductor. The conductor is twisted and folded and laid on itself no more than once while preserving the position of the now at least 4-layer cross-section over its length.

Abstract: A setting apparatus (1) for setting a blind nut or the like to a workpiece comprises a mandrel (7), a hydraulic cylinder (17) receiving therein a hydraulic piston (15) for axially pulling the mandrel (7), an oil reservoir (22) for containing oil to be supplied to the hydraulic cylinder (17), and an air cylinder (27) for receiving therein an air piston (26) connected to a ram (25) adapted to be reciprocatingly advanced and retracted in the oil reservoir (22). In response to the compressed air supplied to the air cylinder, the hydraulic piston (15) is moved to pull the mandrel (7), whereby a fastener threadedly connected with the mandrel is set to a workpiece. The setting apparatus (1) also includes an air-pressure setting valve (33) for adjustably presetting the air pressure of the compressed air to be supplied to the air cylinder (27). When the air pressure in said air cylinder reaches the preset air pressure level, the air-pressure setting valve (33) is operated to feed the compressed air from the air cylinder to completion valve activation assembly (13) so that a completion valve (11) is activated to stop the movement of the air piston (26) to prevent the mandrel (7) from being pulled. Such a setting apparatus allows a nut-type fastener such as a blind nut to be properly set to a workpiece by only a single adjustment irrespective of the variation in thickness of the workpiece. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The synthetic sonar antenna includes a linear array of sonar sensors. The number of sensors on the reception antenna (101) is minimized by establishing a reduced pitch (d) between the sensors only at the ends of the array, whilst a large pitch (d) prevails in the central region of the array.  The synthetic sonar antenna is subject to self-calibration. This is based on inter-recurrent correlation, including estimating the length of displacement parallel to the antenna; the delay between two correlated signals; and a variation of sight induced by the rotation of the antenna with respect to successive recurrent signals corresponding to the same interval distance which is sufficiently small to suppose that parameters remain constant. The number of sensors on the reception antenna (101) is minimized by establishing a reduced pitch (d) between the sensors only at the ends of the array, whilst a large pitch (d) prevails in the central region of the array. The pitch used is determined by the precision of the self-calibration.
