Abstract: The object  of the invention is an interlocking element intended for joining together building boards or sheets L1 and L2, and comprising a component A to be fastened to L1, and a component B to be fastened to L2. The cross-sectional profile of component A consists of part (a) which extends into the construction, and of part (b) which continues from part (a) and is oriented towards the centre of L1, and of part (c) which continues from part (b), bending 180 DEG  and running in the opposite direction with respect to part (b), towards the joint seam (s) between L1 and L2. Component B comprises a part (m) which extends into the construction. According to the invention, component A in addition consists of part (d) which continues from part (c) in the shape of a Z-profile, and remains on the other side of the joint seam (s). Together parts (a) - (d) form an integrated piece. When components A and B are fastened to adjacent building boards or sheets, components A and B can be joined together by means of a clamping device K passing through L1. The point of the clamping device is pressed against the part assembly (bc) of component A, in which case part (m) of component B, fastened to L2, is clamped in the joint seam (s), as the lower arc of part (d) is pressed towards parts (a) and (m).

Abstract: A circularly polarized microcell antenna (10) that requires only a single feed-line to radiate circularly polarized electromagnetic energy therefrom. The antenna (10) comprises a reflector box (14) having a bottom (15) and side walls (17) to which an electrical connector (20) is mounted. The center conductor (24) of the connector (20) is electrically connected to a conductor bar (22) upon which a first dipole assembly is mounted at a designated one-quarter wavelength location. The shell of the connector (20) is electrically connected to the reflector box (14) upon which a second dipole assembly is mounted at a designated one-quarter wavelength location. Each dipole assembly comprises a primary dipole arm (52) and a secondary dipole arm (68) which are electrically connected by a phasing loop that introduces a 90 DEG  phase shift between the primary dipole arm (52) and the secondary dipole arm (68). Thus, a single feed-line is capable of feeding both the primary and secondary dipoles so as to allow circularly polarized electromagnetic energy to radiate therefrom. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device for the mixing and metered unloading of cattle fodder or the like has a mixing chamber with a bottom, two side walls located opposite one another and an end wall extending transversely relative to the side walls, as well as at least one drivable mixing element which is mounted in the mixing chamber and extends approximately parallel to the side walls and which, during operation, covers, in the mixing chamber, a virtually closed path extending partially between and partially parallel to the side walls. A discharge orifice capable of being shut off by a shut-off member and intended for the unloading of cattle fodder is provided in at least one side wall, the path of movement of the (each) mixing element being adjacent to the bottom and the side walls and running along the discharge orifice in the (each) side wall, and, with the discharge orifice opened, the (each) mixing element, functioning as an unloading element, discharging the cattle fodder out of the discharge orifice. The mixing chamber possesses, opposite the end wall, an open introduction side for introducing the cattle fodder or the like, the (each) mixing element being adjustable along the circumference of a mixing space arranged in the mixing chamber and intended for the cattle fodder to be mixed. The mixing space is accessible via the open mixing-chamber introduction side arranged opposite the end wall, there being arranged on the open introduction side of the mixing chamber a cutting plate which is movable up and down and which has on its underside a cutting member for releasing the cattle fodder from a stock. The released cattle fodder can be introduced into the mixing space as a result of the adjustment of the cutting plate in the direction of the end wall, and the cutting plate is connected to at least one pivotably mounted pivoting arm, supported in the region of the end wall, for moving the cutting plate up and down. Furthermore, the pivoting arm is designed so as to be telescopically retractable and extensible for the purpose of adjusting the cutting plate. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vehicle transmission shifter (1) in which a locking member (24) is movable along a line in opposite directions to a locked position or unlocked position. A mechanical advantage means, preferably a toggle joint (32), is connected to one end of the locking member for either restraining or moving the locking member in response to the energization of an electrical coil (35) of an electrical module (30) which actuates an armature (37), or so-called module actuator, in a direction orthogonal to the toggle joint. The module actuator is biased to substantially align the axes of the toggle joint in which position the locking member is in locked position restrained from movement. When the brake of the vehicle is applied, the coil is energized and the module actuator is moved by the energization of the coil to break the knee of the toggle joint to unlock the locking member. <IMAGE>
