A bolt designed for use in roof bolting. It consists of a 3/4 in. diameter rod, at one end of which is a cold-rolled threaded portion, the other end being shaped to form a solid wedge forged integrally with the bolt. Over this wedge is fitted a loose split sleeve of 1-1/2 in. external diameter. The anchorage is provided by the bolt being placed in the hole and the bolt is pulled downwards while the sleeve is held by the thrust tube. Split by the wedge head of the bolt, the sleeve expands until it grips the sides of the hole. 1, record 1, English, - wedge%2Dand%2Dsleeve%20bolt

The tail rotor assembly is made up of a mast, hub, two scissors assemblies, four pitch control rods, slider, spider, four dampers, four blades and control(extension) rod.... The variation of the collective pitch of the blades for the thrust control is possible due to a translational movement(inwards and outwards) of the four pitch control rods. The spider-slider assembly rotates together with the hub-blades system and translates together with the extension rod, which is moved by a servoactuator system. The two scissors assemblies keep the spider-slider assembly rotating together with the hub. The dampers have the function of damping the lag movement. 2, record 3, English, - spider
