A towable trailored standing tree baler provides independent maneuverability with sufficient structural strength required for baling large trees. A telescopic wheeled frame provides ground support directly underneath a tree branch compression ring and therefore provides a strong structural foundation for pushing the ring upward. The support wheels of the frame can be both steered and tilted so that the apparatus can be centered on the tree even on uneven ground. A compression ring lifting boom utilizes an interconnecting rotation arm between the end of the boom and the compression ring so that the ring may be positioned at a very low starting point close to the ground and then moved accurately upwardly with the circumference of the ring being held level and centered. A specialized lining material on the ring reduces friction against the tree limb bark and therefore reduces tree limb damage.

Methods for manufacturing fabric-reinforced weatherstrip include incorporating a fabric application step into a process for making coated substrates. In one embodiment, a strip of the fabric from a roll of material may be applied directly onto a coating after it has been applied in a coat die to a foam profile, while the coating is still in the molten state. Alternatively, a fabric application plate may be attached to an upstream side of coating die with a fabric feed channel cut into the plate. The fabric follows the channel to contact and mate with the foam profile. The fabric applicator plate may be configured so as to exert pressure on only the part of the product where the fabric is being applied. Ultrasonic welding techniques may also be employed.

Provided is a lubricating oil composition for a continuously variable transmission, said composition exhibiting a low viscosity whilst maintaining the viscosity required of the lubricating oil composition throughout a period of use in a mechanism, and maintaining a high friction coefficient between metals so as to ensure a high power-transmitting force provide the wet clutch friction characteristics and the shudder prevention properties required in a transmission. The composition also achieves improved fuel economy due to a low traction coefficient. In the composition, (B) a phosphorus compound, (C) a calcium salicylate and / or a calcium sulfonate, (D) a boron-modified ashless dispersant, and (E) a friction regulating agent are included, each at a specified amount, in a base-oil that has been adjusted so that the product (ECxV40) of the mass percent (EC(mass%)) of a saturated cyclic component, as based on the total base-oil mass, and the kinematic viscosity (V40(mm2 / s)) at 40 DEG is equal to or less than 500, and the kinetic viscosity at 100 DEG is 3.6-4.1mm2 / s. The lubricating oil composition has a kinematic viscosity at 100 DEG of 5.2-5.6mm2 / s and a viscosity index of equal to or greater than 165.

Provided is a seal ring which has low-friction characteristics and low-leakage characteristics, reduces drive loss of the automatic transmission of an automobile, and contributes to improvement in fuel consumption of the automobile. The seal ring is attached to a shaft groove on the outer peripheral surface of a shaft. A plurality of recessed sections circumferentially spaced apart from each other with pillar sections interposed therebetween are formed at least on the inner peripheral side of a side surface of the seal ring in contact with the shaft groove. The circumferential opposite ends of each of the recessed sections are formed as squeezing portions formed of curved surfaces convex toward the pillar sections. The depth “h” of a deepest portion in which the axial width of the recessed section is the largest is set in the range of 2 to 17 where the axial width of the seal ring is 100.

Disclosed is a thrust slide bearing (1) made of a synthetic resin, which comprises an upper case (100) made of a synthetic resin, a lower case (200) made of a synthetic resin, and a thrust slide bearing piece (300) which is made of a synthetic resin and arranged between the upper case (100) and the lower case (200).
