A container is provided for storing items in a vacuum state. The container includes a receptacle with associated lid. A lever and clamp act together as a toggle to exert a relatively high closure force on the lid. The container includes a vacuum pump, preferably within a base of the container. A switch is provided to activate and deactivate the pump which is activated by the lever when the lever is pivoted to a closed position. A sensor is optionally also provided to shut off the pump when a sufficiently low pressure is reached. The lid includes a bleed port which is closed by the clamp when the lid is closed. When the lever and clamp are pivoted to an open position, this bleed port is opened so that pressure equalization occurs and the lid can be easily opened without fighting atmospheric pressure forces acting on the lid.

An air passage switching device includes a slide door slidable along first and second opening portions partitioned by a partition portion, a guide member for guiding the slide door, and a link mechanism for slidably moving the slide door along the guide member. The link mechanism includes a rotation shaft rotatably supported in a case, a link portion provided at one end portion of the slide door, and a link lever connected to the rotation shaft and the link portion. The link portion is rotatable around the rotation shaft only within a range of the second opening portion in a sliding direction, among the first and second opening portions. Furthermore, the slide door can be provided with a first seal portion for sealing a clearance with outer peripheral portions of the first and second opening portions, and a second seal portion for sealing a clearance with the partition portion.

The invention relates to a gripper mechanism for machines, robots and manipulation devices, comprising at least one moving gripping finger, operated by coupling to an operating mechanism by two drive shafts. As a result of operating the gripping finger by two connecting bars, in turn each driven by the drive shafts, it is possible to move the gripping finger through a rotation over 180° through the path or range thereof and hence securely transmit forces and torques without tipping or getting in an unstable position. According to the invention, the drive shafts are divided axially into at least two parts in order to be housed completely in an enclosed and unitary gripper housing, protected from dust and dirt and hermetically sealed. The different parts of the drive shafts are centered on one another and positively connected by means of axial toothing, in the form of pinion gears and pins, and have a carrier support bearing.

The invention relates to a tubular rotary joint, in particular for conducting a polymer melt, comprising a holder and a mobile connection body, which is rotatably connected to the holder by means of one bearing end. A distribution chamber with a feeder is configured in the holder, said chamber being connected to a distribution channel that is configured in the connection body. The distribution channel in the connection body leads to a connection end, to which a pipe section can be coupled. To guarantee the flexibility of the connection body at high pressure and at high temperatures, the bearing end of the connection body is configured as a shaft journal, which is rotatably mounted in a bearing bore that penetrates the distribution chamber in the holder.

A method for lining an existing pipe uses a tubular lining material comprising a flexible resin absorber impregnated therein with a liquid setting resin. One end part of the lining material is radially spread to form cut pieces. The cut pieces of the lining material are laid on a flange comprising a flexible resin absorber impregnated with a liquid setting resin. The flange and the cut pieces of the lining material are brought into pressure contact with a surface surrounding a pipe opening of the existing pipe before a step of evertedly inserting the lining material into the existing pipe. The liquid setting resin in the flange and the cut pieces of the lining material is cured to adhesively fix the flange and the cut pieces of the lining material to the surface surrounding the pipe opening of the existing pipe.
