Ariane 5 Launcher. Propulsion for the main cryogenic stage is provided by a single Vulcain engine fed by cryogenic fuels-liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen-which are stored in two tanks separated by a common bulkhead. Engine thrust is transmitted through a thrustframe to the upper composite by means of the aft skirt, the tank walls and the stage's forward skirt. This frame, containing most equipment required for stage operation, constitutes the propulsion bay. The forward skirt also takes up the thrust of the two large solid boosters. 4, record 2, English, - propulsion%20bay

A rotary machine used for drilling the holes in firedamp drainage. It is a two-speed 150/250 r. p. m. machine, drill-rod rotation being operated by a 6 h. p. motor, and traversing is done by a 2-h. p. motor, a pinion of which engages a toothed rack which runs the length of the drill frame. A forward drilling thrust of 4 tons is possible. The machine measures 10 ft overall and weighs about 1000 lb. With an improved high-speed gearbox, 100-130 ft of C. M. strata can be drilled in a shift. 2, record 4, English, - Nusse%20and%20Grafer%20PIV%2F6%20drilling%20machine
