Bike boxes are used at locations where left-turning cyclist volumes may be very high approaching an intersection. In this situation, the motor vehicle stop bar is set back approximately 4 m, helping cyclists move from the curb lane and turn left by positioning themselves in front of the motor vehicles.... It should be noted that the application of bike boxes restricts right turns on red displays for motor vehicles. 3, record 1, English, - bike%20box

Un sas vélo [...] est l'espace réservé aux vélos devant les feux de signalisation. Les cyclistes s'y placent lorsque le feu est rouge. [...] Les sas vélo sont un marquage de sécurité. Beaucoup d'accidents sont évités quand on rend les cyclistes plus visibles dans les carrefours. Placés dans un sas devant les voitures, les cyclistes qui continuent tout droit ou tournent à droite évitent des conflits avec les véhicules qui roulent dans le même sens.

The terms of the contract can, however, turn what would normally be simply a requisition relating to zoning into a requisition on matters of contract, just as the terms of the contract may make a question of title a requisition on a matter of contract.(Law Society of Upper Canada, Bar Admission Course, Real Estate Law, 1990-91, p. 8-4). 1, record 6, English, - requisition%20on%20matters%20of%20zoning

The model represents the steel-plate type wagon turntable, 15ft.(4, 6m.) diameter. These were found in goods yards and industrial sites where space restrictions were such that conventional pointwork could not be accommodated. Their lightweight construction meant that locomotives were prohibited from traversing them. Consequently, they were often used in locations where shunting was performed by tractors, horses or where capstan haulage of wagons was employed. The table was turned by one of two methods : a bar inserted into a socket provided a means whereby the turntable could be rotated manually, or a powered capstan was employed to turn the wagon by means of a rope attached to one of a series of bollards around the rim of the turntable plate. 2, record 8, English, - wagon%20turntable

The rotor of the air-driven gyro is mounted in a sealed housing. Filtered air is brought into the gyro housing through passages in the rear pivot, the gimbal ring, and the side pivots. The air then blows against the rotor through two angled nozzles on opposite sides of the housing. The circumference of the rotor is machined with dozens of little bucket-like cutouts which allow the airflow to spin the rotor like a waterwheel (but a whole lot faster). Having done its work, the air then exits through exhaust ports on the lower part of the sealed gyro housing, whereupon it is sucked out of the instrument case by the vacuum pump. 3, record 12, English, - gyro%20housing

Attitude indicator components(vacuum-driven). The rotor, mounted in a sealed housing, spins in a horizontal plane about the vertical axis. The housing pivots about the lateral axis on a gimbal, which in turn is free to pivot about the longitudinal axis. The instrument case is the third gimbal necessary for universal mounting. The horizon bar is linked to the gyro by a lever, attached to a pivot on the rear of the gimbal frame and connected to the gyro housing by a guide pin. 5, record 12, English, - gyro%20housing

On appellera «carter» le solide [...] qui porte le gyro au moyen de paliers A et A'. Cette dénomination de carter est parfaitement adaptée puisque le gyro doit être protégé des poussières et régulé en température. De plus la grande vitesse de rotation présente un danger pour l'environnement extérieur. [...] Le carter s'appelle aussi «élément sensible», car c'est lui qui reçoit directement les effets du gyro et lui seul est vraiment observable.

In making a Spanish windlass, fasten a rope between the load you are to move and an anchorage some distance away. Place a short spar vertically beside this rope, about halfway between the anchorage and the load. This spar may be a pipe or a pole, but in either case it should have as large a diameter as possible. Make a loop in the rope and wrap it partly around the spar. Insert the end of a horizontal rod through this loop. The horizontal rod should be a stout pipe or bar long enough to provide leverage. It is used as a lever to turn the vertical spar. As the vertical spar turns, the rope is wound around it, which shortens the line and pulls on the load. Make sure that the rope leaving the vertical spar is close to the same level on both sides to prevent the spar from tipping over. 3, record 16, English, - Spanish%20windlass
