Typically, the slider is configured to push the non-hinged zipper profile (12) away from the hinged zipper profile (14).

Similarly, typically, the ear on the non-hinged zipper profile is stiffer than the ear on the hinged zipper profile.

Two intermediate sliders with rocking elements are connected, with the aid of connecting rods, to a lower (whole) connecting rod bolt or to the middle part of a lower (split) connecting rod bolt.

Mercedes-Benz offers the gas-powered bus as a Citaro NGT rigid bus and as a Citaro G NGT articulated bus.

In another embodiment, a rigid, non-articulating frame may be provided beneath the surface.

It is the only bone in the human body not connected to another bone.

It is shown radiating from the Unmanifested Logos, or the Unspoken Word.

The invention is also useful in non-articulating implant devices such as bone plates, bone screws, etc.

The lower shell has a non-articulating cross sectional shape that provides a conduit between the lower shell and the sea bed.

Equipped with the standard equipment, the Citaro NGT rigid bus can therefore carry up to 96 passengers, whilst the Citaro G NGT articulated bus can carry 153 passengers.

Given the Citaro’s intrinsically lightweight basic design, in their standard versions this allows the Citaro NGT to carry 96 passengers and the articulated Citaro NGT bus 153.

With a nominal battery capacity of around 400 kW in a standard bus and an even higher capacity in an articulated bus, eCitaro then covers about 70% of all operational requirements without requiring an intermediate charge.

With a rated battery capacity of about 400 kWh in the solo bus and even more in the articulated bus, the eCitaro will then meet about 70 percent of all requirements without opportunity charging.

With a nominal battery capacity of around 400 kWh in the individual bus and additional capacity in the articulated bus, the eCitaro will cover about 70 percent of all requirements without any intermediate charging.

With a rated battery capacity of about 400 kWh in the solo bus and even more in the articulated bus, the eCitaro will then meet about 70 percent of all requirements without opportunity charging.
