Abstract:
The invention relates to a damping device for damping an opening and/or closing motion of a furniture fitting. The damping device includes a restoring mechanism, by which an actuating element of the damping device can be moved into a starting position of the subsequent damping stroke after damping has been carried out. The location of the starting position of the actuating element can be set relative to the damping device by an adjusting unit. The actuating element of the damping device is rotatably supported, and the adjusting unit can be used to adjustably limit the restoring stroke of the actuating element relative to the damping device.
Abstract:
Provided is a fitting adjustment structure for a lid in which, before a frame and a lid are incorporated into an opening portion, a height of a stopper can be adjusted with the lid being closed, to thereby eliminate the need for adjustment after the incorporation. The fitting adjustment structure for the lid includes: the opening portion formed on a panel; the lid which turns to open and close the opening portion; and the frame which is placed along a periphery of the opening portion, and supports the lid, in which: a screw hole is pierced in the frame; a stopper having an upper surface which abuts against a rear surface of the lid in a closed state is screwed with the screw hole; and a turning operation portion engageable with a rotating tool is provided at a lower end of the stopper.

A power drive assembly for a rear lift gate assembly of a vehicle includes a screw drive having a screw member and a clutch supported by the screw member.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a damping device for movable furniture parts, for example for doors or drawers, comprising a piston or plunger which is slidably guided in a hollow body, e.g. a cylinder, with said piston or plunger being impinged upon by spring force into its pushed-out position. According to the invention, the hollow body comprises at least one section of a spiral-shaped stay of the internal screw thread, and/or the piston or plunger comprises at least one section of a spiral-shaped stay of the external screw thread. The stays of the screw threads are glidingly supported one on top of the other, or cams or journals of the hollow body or of the piston or plunger are supported on a screw-thread section of the other component. The pitch of the stays of the screw threads is greater than the pitch at which self-locking occurs.
Abstract:
A drive device for moving a flap of a vehicle includes a first fastening element which can be connected to one of a moveable component and a fixed component, and a housing tube which is axially movable relative to the first fastening element. The housing tube has an end opposite the first fastening element which carries a second fastening element which can be connected to the other of the moveable component and the fixed component. A spindle drive includes a threaded spindle having end mounted for rotation in the housing tube and fixed against axial movement with respect to the housing tube, and a spindle nut arranged on the threaded spindle. The spindle nut is connected to the first fastening element and secured against rotation with respect to the housing tube, and a rotary drive is arranged to drive the spindle in rotation.
Abstract:
A sliding window panel assembly for a motor vehicle. The assembly includes a stationary window panel having an opening formed therein, at least one guide rail coupled to the stationary window panel below the opening and above a bottom edge of the stationary window panel, a shoe slidably received within the guide rail and configured to slidably move within the guide rail, a movable window panel mounted onto the shoe such that the movable window panel slidably moves with the shoe. The movable window panel can slidably move with respect to the stationary panel along a movable panel path. The lead screw drive unit engages the shoe and is adapted to move the shoe and the movable panel along the movable panel path within the guide rail.
Abstract:
A device for adjusting a window pane displaced by a double stranded cable window lifter comprises two cable turning devices arranged at the front and rear, relative to the driving direction of the vehicle along the adjusting direction of the window pane, and a cable, driven by the drive unit, which runs between the cable turning devices along the adjusting direction of the window pane in the two crossed bowden cables. Said cables are at least partly arranged in bowden sheaths, the length of which can be adjusted relative and opposed to each other by means of an adjustment device for altering the lengths of the bowden sheaths, which is arranged in the crossing region of the crossing bowden cables. The length of the bowden sheaths on the drive side bowden cable are changed inversely to the length of the bowden sheath on the non-driven bowden cable.
Abstract:
A door lock for at least one door panel mounted on a door operator attached to a transit vehicle. Such door operator includes a door drive. The door lock having a lock shaft mounted on the operator of such door panel. The lock shaft is oriented in a direction disposed substantially parallel to an opening direction and a closing direction of such at least one door panel. At least one primary lock device connected to such lock shaft, the primary lock device engageable with such door drive for preventing motion thereof. At least one secondary lock device connected to such lock shaft. The secondary lock device engageable with at least one of such door panel and a hanger for such door panel for preventing movement thereof. At least one lock cam mounted on the hanger for engaging such lock shaft for rotating the lock shaft from an unlocking position to a locking position when such at least one door panel is moved in such door closing direction to a closed position of such at least one door panel. An unlocking actuator is attachable to such door operator. The unlocking actuator having a moveable portion connected to the lock shaft to rotate lock shaft to such unlocking position for unlocking such at least one door panel.
Abstract:
An pulley set includes a base, a seat, and an adjusting unit, wherein the base defines a hollow space with one side of the hollow space forming a vertical wall having a screw hole and the other side of the hollow space forming an inclined wall. A guiding plane parallel to the inclined wall extends from the vertical wall, and positioning slots are respectively formed in the guiding plane and the inclined wall. The seat is mounted within the hollow space of the base and has two inclined planes corresponding to the inclined wall and the guiding plane. The adjusting unit is disposed in the screw hole of the base for pushing against the seat such that adjusting the adjusting unit will cause the seat to move along the inclined wall and the guiding plane of the base.
Abstract:
A powered operator assembly for moving an object along a linear axis and particularly for moving doors in a mass transit vehicle utilizing a helical drive member for moving and supporting an attached door panel. The helical drive engages a drive nut that is connected to one of the two door panel hanger assemblies. Each door panel hanger assembly is attached to the door panel and includes at least two rollers which engage the outer surface of a helical drive for motion along the drive axis. One end of such helical drive is connected to an electric prime mover with such prime mover mounted to a stationary bracket mounted to the door opening structure. The second end of the helical drive engages a bearing mounted to a stationary bracket mounted to the door opening structure.
