摘要:
A method for testing a mechanical integrity of an insulating layer covering a conductor in a cable, a longitudinal void being defined inside the insulating layer in a region of the conductor. A first end of the insulating layer is blocked. A compressed gas is injected at a second end of the insulating layer so that the gas enters and travels the longitudinal void inside the insulating layer towards the first end. A gas pressure inside the insulating layer is measured at least near the second end. Injection of the compressed gas is stropped after a predetermined injection time period. A variation of the gas pressure inside the insulating layer is monitored during a diagnostic time window succeeding to a transitional time period following the stopping of the injection. Integrity of the insulating layer is determined based on the variation of the gas pressure during the diagnostic time window.

The suspension includes a pair of arms independently pivoted to opposite sides of the vehicle chassis at one end for up-and-down movement, each arm rotatably carrying a ground-engaging wheel of the vehicle at its free end. Each arm extends in the same direction from its pivoted end, longitudinally of the chassis. A compression spring contacts and upwardly extends from each arm at a distance from its pivoted end, and a load transfer lever is fulcrumed at its center to the chassis; extends transversely of the latter; and its outer ends overly and contact the top of the respective compression springs. The suspension system is applicable to three- and four-wheel motor vehicles. Preferably, the arms are hollow and serve to house part of a transformation mechanism to the wheels, the latter being the driving wheels. In a four-wheel vehicle in accordance with the invention, there is further provided an additional load transfer lever disposed on each side of the vehicle chassis and extending longitudinally of the same, with their ends underlying and having a slidable connection with the first-named transfer levers adjacent the springs.
摘要:
A damper for absorbing vibrations in an overhead cable which has a support member attached to the cable and at least one dampening member pivotally connected to an axial member mounted on a support axis extending substantially horizontally under the cable. Each dampening member has an arm provided with a weight and having an end effecting the connection to the axial member. Both the axial member and the end of the dampening member have cooperating pairs of stops limiting the pivotal movement of the dampening member around the support axis. Between the corresponding stops of the axial member and end of the dampening member are provided resilient cylinders further limiting the pivoting of the dampening member in a resilient manner.
