Abstract:
A gearing mechanism includes a housing component and a shaft mounted in the housing component. The shaft is driven rotating relative to the housing component with regard to a rotation axis in a first rotation direction and in a second rotation direction opposite the first rotation direction. There is also a wrap element that wraps the shaft multiple times. A first end of the wrap element is fastened to the housing component. It is also possible that an inward oriented friction surface is provided and that the wrap element is arranged within the inward oriented friction surface at least in sections in order to interact with the friction surface. In an alternative embodiment, a brake element is provided, the shaft comprises a brake element receptacle that at least partially accommodates the brake element and a contact surface is allocated to the brake element for interacting with the brake element.
Abstract:
A motor vehicle door lock or the like has a housing (1) or a lock bearing plate, a rotary latch (2) with a jaw (3) for a locking wedge (4) or lock bolt and a pawl (7) for locking the rotary latch (2) in a locking position which corresponds to the closed motor vehicle door. Several complementary measures are proposed which can be applied together or separately to optimise the locking elements—rotary latch (2) and pawl (7). A differentiated positioning of the rotary latch (2) and pawl (7) is particularly significant. The material, shape and/or mounting of the swivelling axis (10) of the rotary latch (2) or of the swivelling axis (20) of the pawl (7) are designed for normal operation conditions. However, in the event of tearing up forces which are considerably higher than the normal operation conditions (crash), the rotary latch (2) or pawl (7) can be displaced in such a way that a substantial proportion of the tearing up forces can be absorbed by the supporting area of a recess (11) which contains the rotary latch (2) or of a recess (21) which contains the pawl (7).
Abstract:

The gearbox device comprises at least one double gearbox unit, made of two gear stages having two changes in direction.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a drive device for a motor vehicle door lock or the like, which comprises a motor or in particular an electromotor drive and a gear unit (3) with a drive end and an output end. In order to optimize mechanical back-up actuation in the case of power failure or voltage drop or other interruption of the motor, in particular electromotor drive, according to the invention, between the drive end and the output end of the gear unit (3), is fitted a coupling (10) that is variable in coupling degree, which has a high degree of coupling in the case of high rotational speed, and a low degree of coupling in the case of low rotational speed.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a transmission drive assembly (10) having a drive motor (11) the drive shaft (23) of which protrudes with a portion (25) thereof into a transmission housing (12), wherein the drive shaft (23) is arranged on the side facing the transmission housing (12) in a bearing (32) which is held in a form-fit or force-closed manner in a substantially sleeve-shaped holding element (35; 65) which is arranged in a holding fixture (27) of the transmission housing (12). According to the invention, in an installation position for introducing and positioning the holding element (35; 65) in the holding fixture (27) of the transmission housing (12), the holding element (35; 65) is positioned in a first axial end position defined by an abutment element (30) of the drive motor (11), and, in an end position of the drive shaft (23) in the transmission housing (12), the holding element (35; 65) can be slid by means of a sliding element (47; 61; 62, 63) on the drive shaft (23) into a second axial end position which is axially remote from the at least one abutment element.
Abstract:
The subject of the invention is a key collar for a motor vehicle door lock or the like including a key collar support plate fixedly attached on a support sheet, and a collar element supported on the collar support plate which, in operation, engages a lock catch of the motor vehicle door lock or the like. Optionally, the key collar includes an elastomer arrangement which allows the collar element to move a limited distance relative to the collar support plate in the plane of the collar support plate thereby better meeting the different requirements of normal use conditions and during a vehicle crash. In operation, the collar element of a preferred embodiment is supported on the collar support plate on two spaced bearing points, one bearing point with a trailing bridge in a manner that collar element can be swivelled around an axis which is perpendicular to collar support plate, and another bearing point with a leading bridge which can be displaced in corresponding arc-shaped crank.
Abstract:
An improved process for producing a unit, such as a small plastic housing, from two plastic parts in which a first plastic part is produced in a molding production step and has at least one first connection recess, in which a second plastic part is produced in a molding production step and has at least one second connection recess assigned to the first connection recess. The process is characterized by the two plastic parts being joined together such that the first connection recess and second connection recess are located next to one another and a connector pin is inserted into the two connection recesses thus resulting in a tightly joined unit of the two plastic parts.
Abstract:
In a displacement pick-up for detecting the displacement of an actuator driven by a rotating drive element, which has an indexing mechanism (11) with a first indexing wheel (13), driven by the drive element and having an indexing cam (19), and a rotatable second indexing wheel with encompassing teeth (20), and which also has a device (12) for detecting the rotary position of the second indexing wheel (15), for the sake of achieving high freedom from noise the teeth (20) on the second indexing wheel (15) and the indexing cam (19) meshing with them on the first indexing wheel (13) are embodied with large surface areas, and the two indexing wheels (13, 15) are magnetized in such a way that their respective immediately adjacent faces repel one another.
