The invention relates to a device holder for mounting devices in a vehicle. Said device holder comprises at least one external rack and at least one internal rack. The at least one external rack can be mounted on the vehicle structure and has a storage space that is designed to introduce and releasably attach the at least one internal rack. The internal rack has means for forming at least one compartment that has a variable size in order to introduce and mount at least one device. The device holder according to the invention can be particularly well adjusted to the devices that are to be integrated into the vehicle, can optimally utilize the available space, and can be equipped with user-specific devices in standard racks.

A constant velocity drive mechanism of a rotary-wing aircraft rotor, comprises a torque splitting differential mechanism, comprising a driving disc integral in rotation with a rotor mast and connected to each of two driven discs either side of the driving disc, by a least one connecting pin hinged to each of the discs by one of three ball joint connections. Each of the driven discs is connected to a hub of the rotor by at least one of two driving devices, each of which is also hinged to the hub, so as to drive the hub in rotation about a geometrical axis which can be inclined in all directions about the axis of rotation of the mast.

A connector for a wave attenuation system formed by connecting a plurality of panels in a structure positioned in a body of water; the system causes the dissipation of wave energy. Different configurations of panel, having different flow characteristics, used in the structure, and different types of connector used to connect panels, create different patterns of water flow within the structure, and contribute to wave energy dissipation. Units deployed in harbors, rivers, marinas and the like, help to prevent beach erosion and can facilitate beach nourishment. Embodiments can be utilized as a security barrier, preventing intrusion by trespassers, divers or various sized boats. A variety of sensors can be mounted to the structures, enabling detection of movement, chemical and biological agents, explosives or radiation. A submersible gate, comprising panels and a buoyancy control mechanism, allows for passage of boats and can be controlled remotely.

The invention relates to a multilayer lining plate (100) for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer (1), including at least one part made of a rigid or semi-rigid material, and a ductile or flexible upper decorative layer (2). The lining plate comprises in the perimeter of the main layer (1) a ductile machinable portion (3) that can be machined to form a connecting profile for the connection of the plate with other plates. The machinable portion (3) is preferably made of medium-density fiberboard (MDF), a wood-plastic composite (WPC) material or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and the main layer is of magnesium oxide, fibrocement or mortar with perlite and vermiculite.

A conveying system including at least one tube connection, at least one dispatch station and at least one receiver station, where items are conveyed by an airflow in the direction of the airflow in the pipe connection from a dispatch station to a receiver station. The new feature of a conveying system is that the tube connection has an inner cross-sectional area, preferably a circular cross-sectional area, with a size greater than the largest cross-sectional area of an item, and which is preferably provided with at least twice the cross-sectional area compared with the largest cross-sectional area of an item. Hereby is achieved the advantage that several items may be conveyed in the same tube connection at the same time, where these items are sent individually and successively, corresponding to one item being sent immediately after another.

The invention concerns a mould for lithography by nano-imprinting, together with its manufacturing methods. This mould has a face which includes n structured zone(s) with patterns of micrometric or nanometric size, where n is an integer greater than or equal to 1. This structured face belongs to a first layer which is supported by a second layer, where the first layer is made of a rigid material and the second layer is made of a flexible material.

This mould may also include n intervening layers positioned between the first layer and the second layer, where n is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and in which the Young's modulus of the second layer is lower than the Young's modulus of the n^th intervening layer adjacent to the second layer, and if n is greater than 1, the Young's modulus of the (i)^th intervening layer is greater than the Young's modulus of the (i+1)^th intervening layer, with i=1 to (n−1).

The present invention relates to an ignition device for exothermic welding comprising an electrically conductive metal bushing (1) that can house a pellet of a first welding material (4) in electrical contact with the inner wall of an inner chamber (1c) of the bushing (1), provided with an electrically insulating cap (2) and a bottom base (1b) with an opening (1d) through which the first welding material (4) falls in an incandescent state onto a second welding material (4a) arranged in a weld mold (7) when an exothermic reaction has been triggered in the first welding material (4); an electrode (5) that goes through the cap (2) of the metal bushing (1) and comprises a top contact (5a) connectable to a power output (24) of a voltage generator and a bottom contact in the form of a filament (5b) that can be in electrical contact with the pellet of the first welding material (4), the filament (5b) being made of a material having a melting temperature greater than the ignition temperature of the welding material (4); as well as a contact-assuring element (3) which is guided into the inner chamber (1c) between the bottom base (1b) and the pellet of the first welding material (4).

A power umbilical, a DEH power cable or general umbilical, including a plurality of high power cables for transfer of large amounts of electric energy, filler material in the form of stiff elongate plastic elements located at least partially around and between the high power cables, which together are collectively gathered in a spiraled bundle by means of a laying and closing operation, and a protective sheath that encapsulates the high power cables and the filler material is shown. The high power cables are at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the cables, provided with frictional material which cooperate with the filler material for frictional engagement with and load transfer between each other.
