A table miter saw includes a motor assembly and tilt plate assembly holding a blade for angular adjustment within a table slot. The blade is mounted to the motor below a table supported by a glide assembly situated within a frame. A handle assembly and the tilt plate assembly are attached to the glide assembly and move the blade longitudinally within the slot. The tilt plates are attached to a shaft between the miter side and the table side of the saw and control knobs operate the shaft to move gears within the tilt plates and change the angle of the blade. The tilt plate assembly moves along the shaft when the blade moves. A brake lock assembly in connection with the control knobs locks the angle of the blade. The height of the blade is set using a blade height lock in connection with the handle assembly for operation during miter cuts, which in addition includes a blade height stop for use during table saw operation. Mirrored miter fences are connected to the table top by star receptacles with gears that operate cooperatively for uniform angle change to make complementary miter cuts. The miter fences receive accessories as needed for complex cuts. The miter fences are removable, and a rip fence is attachable for table saw rip cuts.

A fastener is disposed on the first end of the elongated member. The fastener is configured to engage the second end of the elongated member so that the elongated member forms a loop around the organ or duct. A tension element is disposed for movement within the elongated member. A symmetrical drive system including a drive element associated with and engaging the tension element for causing the tension element to control the tension applied by the elongated member against a patient's body organ or duct is further provided. In accordance with an alternate embodiment an apparatus for regulating the functioning of a patient's organ or duct including an elongated member having a first end and a second end. A fastener is disposed on the first end of the elongated member. The fastener is configured to engage the second end of the elongated member so that the elongated member forms a loop around the organ or duct. A tension element is disposed for movement within the elongated member. The tension element is composed of a flexible first member and a flexible second member, wherein the flexible first member is movable relative to the flexible second member. A drive element is associated with and engages the tension element for causing the tension element to control the tension applied by the elongated member against a patient's body organ or duct.

To provide a handle equipped with a torque limiter capable of preventing application of excessive torque, and a fluid controller provided with the same.

An elastic body (7) has a minimum-urging force capable of developing a function desired when the handle is lowered to the lowest position. Disposed in the handle are a transmitting member (8) urged by the elastic body and a transmitted material (10) against which the lower surface of the transmitting material is pressed. The surface of the transmitted material opposed to the transmitting material or the surface of the transmitting material opposed to the transmitted material is formed with serrations along the periphery having inclined surfaces (81, 101) and vertical surfaces (82, 102) which alternately appear. The inclined surfaces of the serrations are upwardly tapered along the direction of rotation in which the cover body descends.

The invention relates to a device and to a method for controlling a coupling system having a coupling provided with a hydraulic actuation system, which includes an adjustable coupling part for connecting and separating a power transmission path between a coupling input side and a coupling output side, a hydraulic connection that connects the actuation unit to an electrohydraulic actuator that is arranged outside the coupling, and a control unit for controlling the actuator. The hydraulic connection forms a hydraulic system together with hydraulic components of the actuation unit and the actuator. According to the invention, a mechanical stop that delimits the adjustment of the coupling part on the actuation unit is formed. A pressure sensor monitors the pressure in the hydraulic system or a control signal of the actuator. The pressure sensor detects an installation of the coupling part on the stop based on occurring characteristic alterations of the pressure in the hydraulic connection or the control signal and controls the electrohydraulic actuator in accordance therewith and/or produces a diagnosis signal.

A base station, for use in a wireless communication system, includes a report receiving unit operable to receive from a user equipment. of the system a report of a downlink received signal quality produced by the user equipment. The report receiving unit includes a unit operable to receive a report of a measuring received signal quality or a report of a selected modulation and coding scheme to the transmitter.

A gravure printing plate includes a cylindrical or substantially cylindrical gravure roller with a peripheral surface. Plural cells corresponding to a pattern to be printed are disposed on the peripheral surface of the gravure roller. First and second regions are provided on the peripheral surface of the gravure roller. The pattern to be printed includes at least two patterns. Plural cells corresponding to one of the two patterns are disposed in the first region. Plural cells corresponding to the other one of the two patterns are disposed in the second region.
