A lighting control console for controlling a lighting control system including a digital processor and a digital storage unit. The lighting control console can comprise several control elements, in particular keys, linear regulators and / or induction regulators, which are arranged on the top of the casing and can be used to enter operating commands. The lighting control console encompasses a display device with at least one screen that is arranged on the top of the casing. The data for the user can be graphically displayed on the screen. The lighting control console can include a casing provided with at least one cover, which can be adjusted between a closed position and an open position, wherein the cover covers at least one extra control element arranged in or on the casing in its closed position, thereby protecting the extra control element against external influences in its closed position.

Ignition of a main fuel in an internal combustion engine having at least one cylinder having a combustion chamber is accomplished by diverting a portion of the main fuel to a processing system; processing said portion of the main fuel to increase ignition sensitivity thereof and form a pilot fuel; introducing the main fuel into the combustion chamber; and introducing said pilot fuel to control ignition of the main fuel.

The motorcycle support stand is a compact and folding device used as an additional support to a motorcycle when parking the motorcycle in a location where firm ground is not available, specifically a muddy field or a location having unstable or uneven ground conditions not conducive to the motorcycle being supported by its own kick stand. The device, comprising a base support frame and an adjustable height pedestal with a frame engaging trough, is compact and storable, being presented in several component parts without requiring any tools, and may be adjusted to the height of any motorcycle, being adapted to any motorcycle.

A modular fibre reinforced plastic flange for a structural composite beam which comprises a body formed of a plurality of elongate elements arranged in an array, wherein the dimensions of the body are substantially determined by the number and arrangement of the elongate elements in the array, and a skin member at least partially surrounding the array. Also, a structural composite beam comprising the modular fibre reinforced plastic flange and a shear web connected to the skin member of the modular flange. A method of making the modular flange and beams, and a kit of parts for making the modular flange are also disclosed.

A multi-purpose armored vehicle is configured for a wide range of purposes by military and police units and in both defensive and offensive postures. A protective canopy covers an entrance to a cockpit capable of accommodating at least one person. The vehicle is sufficiently narrow to enable it to pass through conventional gates and also doorways to, and within buildings.

An extensible boom may be fitted with a wide range of hardware including weapons and communications equipment for dealing with situations involving criminals, terrorists, etc. The shields, boom movement and extension, and hardware are all controllable from the cockpit.

A system for navigation of an autonomously navigating submersible body during entry into a docking station below the water surface includes a determiner for determining an actual motion vector of the autonomously navigation submersible body in relation to the set motion vector describing the optimum entry direction into the docking station and a calculating unit. The calculating unit serves to determine the deviation between the actual motion vector and the set motion vector to determine control vectors based on the deviation and to thereby control the autonomously navigating submersible body during entry.

The present invention relates to a converter arrangement (1) for increasing the number of strings on a string instrument, the converter arrangement comprising; a frame (20) with a base plate (21) and a head (30) with string adjustment screws (31); additional strings (2) attached to the base plate (21) and extending to the head (30) where the strings (2) terminate at the adjustment screws (31) which allow the additional strings (2) to be tuned; means (102) for releasably attaching the converter arrangement to the string side on the string instrument. The present invention also relates to a method for applying the converter arrangement (1) to a string instrument.
