Le flexible dispose de plusieurs passages permettant l'introduction d'un fluide sous pression (par exemple de l'air ou de l'eau) destiné à l'une des lentilles, afin de nettoyer ces lentilles. Le flexible peut également être muni d'un autre passage permettant d'opérer des biopsies dans la cavité naturelle du patient. Ce passage peut également déboucher sur deux (2) conduits permettant de pratiquer les biopsies dans la cavité naturelle (1) soit par aspiration (36) soit au moyen d'un instrument (38). Le second conduit peut être fermé, sauf dans les cas où l'instrument doit être introduit dans la cavité naturelle du patient. Le flexible peut être introduit dans l'ouverture de la gaine pour mettre en place le flexible dans la gaine. Un élément de nettoyage peut être solidarisé au flexible pour nettoyer l'ouverture à l'occasion du passage du flexible dans la gaine. Sinon, un câble de guidage solidaire du flexible peut être passé dans la gaine en même temps que le flexible, puis être désolidarisé du flexible. Des opercules solidaires du flexible peuvent également être passés par cette ouverture pour obstruer de façon étanche le flexible. En outre, un couvercle placé sur l'extrémité du flexible peut en être retiré une fois que le flexible a été passé par l'ouverture de la gaine.

Abstract: In a floor scrubbing machine, side squeegees (58,56) for control of water on the floor are mounted with linkages (44) that include vertical pivots (64,66) so the squeegees can swing from side to side. They are interconnected with a tie rod (68) so they swing in unison. A rear squeegee (38) swings to one side or the other when the machine turns due to friction with the floor. A push-pull cable (70) is connected between the rear squeegee mounting linkage and the linkage of a side squeegee to cause the side squeegees to swing or steer during turns. This positions them to effectively control water on the floor during a turn, and reduces squeegee wear. An alternative to steering them with the rear squeegee is to steer them with a hydraulic cylinder (90) plumbed into the machine's power steering system.

Abstract: 1. A vehicle for mixing and dispensing animal feed for use at mixing and dispensing feed especially based on straw materials such as straw, hay and grass for cattle comprises a driven mixing rotor (14) having paddle arms (20) provided with paddles (22) said rotor being arranged in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. The paddles are arranged in such a manner that they convey the mixed material away from the ends and where the two material flows meet a dispensing hatch is placed. Hereby a violent pressure from the material on the ends of the vehicle body is eliminated. An eccentric position of the mixing rotor (14) together with the rear end of the paddles (22) rising from the side of the vehicle counteracts a wedging of the mixing rotor. In the feed truck the further possibility exists of mounting a set cutting knives from the outside of the vehicle. The feed truck also comprises weighing cells and furthermore a stabilizer for counteracting rolling of the vehicle body. In a further embodiment the vehicle body can also be put into a slightly slanting position.
