A field-configurable apparatus for different aerial applications is provided. The field-configurable apparatus attaches to an aerial boom on a mobile carrier. The apparatus can perform rapid semi-precise cutting of vegetation. Additionally, the apparatus can perform more precise trimming of one or more areas (e.g., limbs) and optionally use a limb clamp to prevent cut limbs/vegetation from arbitrarily falling on objects below the cutting area. Still further, the apparatus can have a grapple or similar device attached to the end of the boom for use in relocating debris or for loading debris. Other industrial applications are also possible (e.g., commercial water blasting, deicing of planes, etc.). In each configuration, the apparatus comprises one or more rotatable or pivoting couplings to allow for rotation about one or more axis and therefore allow precise manipulation of an aerial tool assembly from an operator in the vehicle or on the ground.

The present application discloses a rotary liquid distributor for a liquid-cooled tank, and a liquid-cooled tank. The rotary liquid distributor includes a liquid distribution cavity and a liquid distribution arm provided in the liquid distribution cavity. The liquid distribution cavity rotates around a central shaft thereof. A plurality of the liquid distribution arms are uniformly distributed in a circumferential direction of the liquid distribution cavity. That is, the liquid distribution arm rotates with the liquid distribution cavity. Then, a liquid distribution outlet is provided between a first end and a second end of the liquid distribution arm. The liquid distribution outlet is located on a side of the liquid distribution arm facing away from a rotating direction.

A device for treating smooth surfaces includes a treatment unit, a support structure with a pivoting support arm for positioning and holding the treatment unit and a load balancer for setting and automatically controlling the contact pressure acting on the surface to be treated by the treatment unit. The treatment unit in the form of a spraying device includes at least one support roller or support wheel for supporting the treatment unit against the surface to be treated.

A three-layer structure is comprised of an extra-cellular matrix, a sheet-shaped cell culture, and a biodegradable gel layer (single layer). By virtue of this three-layer structure, breakage of the sheet-shaped cell culture due to high spray pressure is reduced. The fibrin gel may be formed on one surface of the sheet-shaped cell culture by spraying of a thrombin liquid. A production method may involve culturing cells on a temperature-responsive cell culture substrate, dripping fibrinogen onto a sheet-shaped cell culture having an extra-cellular matrix on a lower surface thereof, further spraying a thrombin liquid onto the sheet-shaped cell culture from an oblique direction, whereby the result is a three-layer structure having a fibrin gel layer only on one surface of the sheet-shaped cell culture and having an extra-cellular matrix layer on the opposite surface.

A spreading device is disclosed for spreading vehicles for discharging spreading agents. The spreading device includes at least one tank for receiving liquid spreading agents to be spread and at least one rotationally-driven discharge device, connected via a provided supply unit to the tank. The discharge device has at least one base body and one cover securely connected to the base body, wherein the base body defines a receiving chamber (AR) for the supplied liquid spreading agent and is in the shape of a cylinder. The base body has at least one bottom section, forming an underside (U) of the discharge device, with an inlet opening and at least one wall section projecting from the bottom section and concentrically surrounding an axis of rotation (RA). The discharge device has multiple discharge units, each having a discharge opening, for dispensing the liquid spreading agent from the receiving chamber (AR).
