Abstract: An actuator lock is provided to prevent movement of an actuator until the actuator lock is released. A first member (4) of the lock is movable in response to fluid pressure within a chamber (23, 62) to move from a locked position to an unlocked position allowing the actuator to move. The first member is held at the unlock position by a latching member (30, 66) so that the lock cannot return to the locked position. During testing of the actuator, a test member (20, 56, 80) is operable to reversibly move the first member from the locked position to an unlocked and unlatched position.

Abstract: The vortex packing for an apparatus designed as a mass exchange column or static mixer is constructed from planar structural elements. These structural elements define a point lattice whose lattice planes lying in apparatus cross-sections form basic grids of rectangles. The rectangles each represent an equatorial periphery of an octahedron and the polar points of these octahedrons lie on the points of the adjacent lattice planes. The octahedrons either have sides which are all open or have alternating open and closed sides. According to the invention, the packing is constructed from layers (3) arranged in parallel each of which are composed of a film-like material having essentially triangular elementary regions (8, 9). Some of these elementary triangles (9) have cut edges (30) on each of two sides and are folded out from the film surface about folded edges (15) in the form of tabs. The structural elements of the packing result from pairwise assignment or connection of the elementary triangles (8, 9). <IMAGE>

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/00131 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 7, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 7, 1994 PCT Filed Jan. 21, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/19957 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 14, 1993.A locking device is provided for a retractable support member for mobile machines and the like. The support member is movable between a retracted transport position and an operating support position. The locking device includes a locking bolt moveable between a locking position, an unlocking position, and a release position with the bolt being biased toward the locking position. An actuating member moveable between first and second end positions is provided for engaging a driving element extending from the locking member such that the locking bolt can be moved from the locking position to the unlocking position when the actuating member is moved from the first end position to the second end position. An engagement and guide member is connected to the support member and includes two locking surfaces engagable with the locking bolt for locking the support member in the transport and operating positions. The engagement and guide member also includes a cam portion between the two locking surfaces that is engagable with the locking bolt for displacing the locking bolt from the unlocking position to the release position wherein the driving element is disengaged from the actuating member and the actuating member consequently moves automatically from its second end position to its first end position. The locking device thereby assures that the, support member is automatically locked when in either the transport or operating position and that the locking device need only be actuated for unlocking the support member.

Abstract: Afin d'obtenir que dans un connecteur à fiches dont la réglette à contacts convexes comporte des contacts convexes, le contact convexe passe le long du contre-contact pendant l'enfichage de la fiche à contacts convexes et de la fiche à contacts frontaux, le contact convexe a été placé à l'extrémité d'une lame flexible tendue d'un côté. Pendant l'enfichage, les contacts convexes sont amenés dans une trajectoire à peu près circulaire autour du point de tension de la lame flexible. La connexion électrique entre le point de raccordement et le contact convexe s'effectue avec des lamelles électroconductrices. L'invention concerne notamment deux modes de réalisation fondamentalement différents: d'une part une conception sous forme de composant, avec le point de raccordement, la lame flexible, les lamelles électroconductrices et le contact convexe dans une unité; d'autre part une conception à l'aide de la technique MID (molded interconnection device) où les lamelles électroconductrices sont appliquées sur le plastique du couvercle ou d'une pellicule.

Abstract: The switch has a vacuum switching tube (1) and a switch housing (3) which holds the vacuum switching tube (1) between two electrical connections (5, 6). The vacuum switching tube (1) contains an evacuated housing (7) which is constructed in the form of a tube and has a stationary switching element and a moving switching element. A contact support (8) (which can be moved by a drive) of the moving switching element is guided out of the housing (7), held in a vacuum-tight manner by means of a bellows (19) and held on the tube axis (2) by means of a sliding guide. The sliding guide has a bush (12) which is detachably mounted on a flange (16) of the housing (7). The bush (12) has an axially aligned guide groove (22) located on its inner surface. A guide element (14), which is held on the sliding body of the moving contact support (8), is guided in this guide groove (22). The switch is distinguished by the fact that undesirable forces acting axially, radially or in a twisting manner are kept remote from the bellows during assembly (installation) and during operation. In consequence, vacuum sealing of the vacuum switching tube (1) and thus good operational realiability (safety) of the switch are ensured even over long operating time periods and during assembly (installation) and maintenance (servicing) tasks. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method involves rotating a closure protrusion (17) from its rest position in a blocking direction to prevent further rotation of the protrusion after full deployment of the locking bar. (15). A check of a proper closure state, i.e. positive locking, is conducted using sensors. Clearance of the path of the closure protrusion, enabling further rotation of the closure protrusion from its rest position, which has no effect on the locking bar, can only occur if a proper closure state has been detected. The setting action is only performed after clearance of the protrusion's path and at least one further rotation of the protrusion.
