Patent EP-0412471-A1 (EP)
Inventor: REBHAN DIETER ING GRAD
IPC: A01N59/00
Filed: 1990-08-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for pest control in granular foodstuffs, which comprises introducing asphyxiating gas (for example N2, CO2) into the storage container which is filled with the foodstuff. To carry out such a process in a reliable manner combined with low gas consumption and relatively little effort, it is proposed to maintain the atmosphere of asphyxiating gas which has been established in the container after prior displacement flushing by pressure-controlled maintenance of a slight superatmospheric pressure in the container.

Abstract: An electrical connector insulating housing (2) defines a single ring of cavities (8) each for receiving an electrical terminal (28). A central spigot (78) projects within the ring of cavities (8), as a cantilever, and acts as a pivot for annular terminal retainer (4) having thereon radially outwardly projecting terminal retaining studs (114) and a pair of diametrically opposed latching spurs (120), each spur (120) being engageable in first and second latching notches (108 and 108′) in the spigot (78). Guides are provided to ensure that the terminal retainer (4) can be mated with the spigot (78) only in a first angular position in which each latching spur (120) engages in a first latching notch (108), in which position the terminal retaining studs (114) are outside the cavities (8). A terminal (28) is then inserted to each cavity (8) and a tool is applied to the terminal retainer (4) by way of a mating face (12) of the housing (2), to rotate the terminal retainer (4) to a second angular position in which each spur (120) engages in a respective second latching notch (108′) and in which position each terminal retaining member (114) overlies an abutment collar (44) on the terminal (28), to prevent it from backing out from its cavity (8) even under the action of severe vibration.

Title: Self-positioning belt tensioner.
Inventor: LEONARD GEORGE HAMLIN
IPC: F16H9/10
Filed: 1990-08-06
Abstract: A self adjusting tensioning system for a variable transmission. An endless belt is advanced by and supported on a pair of spaced apart, variable diameter, sheaves which are independently movable between reduced and enlarged configurations and which result in the belt assuming different paths. A pair of rollers are rotatably mounted at fixedly spaced locations on an elongated carrier member. One of the rollers is actively biased into engagement with the belt by a compression spring assembly. A cam surface on the carrier member proximate the other of the rollers is slidable along a fixed contoured supporting surface and passively assures engagement of the other of the rollers with the belt. As the ratio of the transmission changes with changed diameters of the sheaves and the belt thereby assumes a changed path, the belt is effective to automatically move the rollers therealong so as to maintain a substantially constant tension in the belt. A stabilizer mechanism inhibits undesirable rotational movement of the carrier member about its longitudinal axis.

Inventor: SELLMAIER WILLI SEN
IPC: B60S9/06
Filed: 1991-09-04
Abstract: Vehicles with special bodies (in particular for example campers or vehicle trailers, for example caravans, vending trailers etc.) often have problematic standing characteristics due to their usually long overhang at the rear (swinging motions etc.). On the other hand, the vehicle also stands in an unstable fashion due to a corresponding arrangement of the terrain. The present invention serves to securely support the abovementioned vehicles while at the same time compensating differences in levels when in standing mode. The support structure can be controlled in an infinitely variable fashion from the inside of the vehicle. However, the entire structure, including the necessary motor, is attached to the underside of the vehicles without the previously required opening in the floor. The support capacity in standing mode is approximately 1,200 kg per support. Details and mode of operation are shown by the enclosed drawing. <IMAGE>
