When a carload of grain is to be shipped, the batching mechanism on the office control panel is set at the number of hoppers needed to load the car. The system is then set to cycle. First, the butterfly in the annex bin opens and grain is conveyed by the intermediate conveyor to the garner. Grain from the garner flows into the hopper scale filling it to its initial setting; then the garner gate closes. At the same time, the gate of the hopper scale opens, releasing the weighed grain on to the conveyor; this conveyor takes the grain to the shipping leg where it is elevated and loaded into the car. The cycle repeats itself until the car is filled. 1, record 1, English, - garner

Quand un wagon de grain doit être expédié, le mécanisme de pesée discontinue est réglé en fonction du nombre de remplissage de la bascule à trémie qu'il faut pour remplir le wagon. Le cycle est commandé depuis le panneau central. Une fois le mécanisme enclenché, la vanne papillon de la cellule s'ouvre et le grain s'écoule sur la bande transporteuse intermédiaire qui le transporte jusqu'à la trémie de la bascule d'expédition. La vanne d'alimentation s'ouvre et la benne de la bascule se remplit jusqu'au poids désiré; puis la vanne se ferme. A ce moment, la benne de la bascule se vide sur la bande transporteuse à trémies qui le transporte jusqu'à l'élévateur d'expédition à godets qui élève le grain et le déverse dans le wagon. Le cycle se répète jusqu'à ce que le wagon soit plein. 1, record 1, French, - bascule%20d%27exp%C3%A9dition

A carabiner whose gate has a metal sleeve which, when in the closed position, prevents the gate from opening. 5, record 3, English, - locking%20carabiner
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Locking carabiners are generally stronger than nonlocking because the gate area is reinforced by a threaded screw lock. The threads are covered by the screw lock to prevent accidental fraying of webbing. Locking carabiners offer more security than nonlocking ones and are commonly used for belaying or for setting up top-rope climbs. 1, record 3, English, - locking%20carabiner
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Locking carabiners refer to the generic concept which designates carabiners with different types of locks (auto-lock, screwgate lock ...). 6, record 3, English, - locking%20carabiner

[Le] mousqueton de sécurité évite l'inconvénient et le danger d'ouverture par pression des mousquetons d'assurance. Il comprend un système de fermeture qui verrouille plus efficacement. 3, record 3, French, - mousqueton%20de%20s%C3%A9curit%C3%A9
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
«Mousqueton de sécurité» est l'unique terme correct utilisé dans la littérature pour désigner la notion de fermeture de sécurité. Du fait de la diversité des fermetures de sécurité disponibles sur le marché (sur le doigt ou sur le mousqueton même), le terme «mousqueton à vis», qui était employé au lieu de «mousqueton de sécurité», ne désigne plus qu'un type de fermeture, au même titre que le mousqueton à baïonnette ou le mousqueton auto-lock. 4, record 3, French, - mousqueton%20de%20s%C3%A9curit%C3%A9
