Record 1 2023-07-05

A technique for opening a motor vehicle door to avoid [dooring] passing cyclists or other road users by reaching across the body for the door latch with the more distant hand.

Domaine(s)
  • Sécurité routière
  • Conduite automobile
CONT

L'ouverture pivot : utiliser la bonne main. Effectuer une rotation. Il suffit d'ouvrir sa portière avec la main se situant à l'opposé de la porte (ouverture de la portière gauche avec la main droite, et de la portière droite avec la main gauche). Cette manœuvre, complémentaire à l'observation des rétroviseurs, assure intuitivement que l'angle mort soit systématiquement analysé et offre automatiquement un meilleur champ de vision pour détecter si une personne à vélo se dirige vers le véhicule.

  • Hand Tools

CONT

Hydraulic door opener. This manually-operated spreader is relatively lightweight. It consists of a hand pump and spreader device. The spreader has intermeshed teeth that can be easily slipped into a narrow opening such as between a door and a door frame. A few pumps of the handle cause the jaws of the spreader device to open, exerting pressure on the object to be moved. The pressure usually causes the locking mechanism or door to fail.

Domaine(s)
  • Outillage à main
  • Matériel de secours et de lutte (incendies)
CONT

Écarteur de porte hydraulique. L'écarteur manuel est relativement léger. Il comporte une pompe à main et un écarteur. L'écarteur est muni de dents engrenantes qui peuvent facilement s'insérer dans une ouverture étroite telle que l'espace existant entre une porte et un cadre de porte. Quelques mouvements alternatifs de la poignée permettent d'ouvrir les mâchoires de l'écarteur qui exercent une pression sur l'objet à déplacer. Cette pression fait généralement céder le mécanisme de verrouillage ou la porte.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Breadmaking
CONT

Ovens can, of course, be hand loaded with pans or straps. This arduous task is accomplished by mechanical means in nearly all large volume shops, however. The principle of operation of loading devices is relatively simple. Pans move over roller conveyors form the final steam proofer to a point in front of the relatively oven loading door. Their momentum carries them onto a series of rollers at right angles to the previous conveyor and parallel to the oven door. When a series of pans the width of the tray or hearth has collected, they are pushed into the oven. A retractable metal bar prevents additional pans from coming onto the loading platform while the pusher bar is operating.
