Abstract:
An injection moulding machine with a vertically movable mould-clamping plate, an electrical drive motor for the movable mould-clamping plate. A control unit for the drive motor, a machine control unit and a safety device to prevent unintentional movement of the movable mould-clamping plate are also provided. The machine control unit activates the retaining device when a movement of the movable mould-clamping plate is indicated without a corresponding drive signal.
Abstract:
A tailgate for a vehicle with side walls and a bed has a supplemental tailgate that retracts within a tailgate frame and is extendable therefrom. The supplemental tailgate may include a guide system secured generally between the rear panel and the front panel of the tailgate frame, a movable frame assembly having two telescoping supports extendable from, pivotable relative to and retained by the guide system. The supplemental tailgate may also include a cross member connected to the two telescoping supports and extending therebetween. A lock rod assembly telescopically extends from and is pivotable relative to the cross member, with the lock rod assembly including a lock rod bar having a lock rod latch affixed thereto that is adapted to releasably latch to one of the vehicle side walls to thereby support the movable frame portion relative to the guide system when the tailgate frame is in the generally horizontal open position and the movable frame assembly is pivoted upward relative to the tailgate frame.
Abstract:
A tailgate for a vehicle has a supplemental tailgate that retracts within the tailgate and is extendable therefrom in order to provide bed extender, box extender and step assist functions. The supplemental tailgate includes a pivotable molding, which mounts on a movable frame portion, and a latching assembly. When pivoted, the pivotable molding releases the latching assembly, allowing the supplemental tailgate to be moved to various extended positions. When the supplemental tailgate is in its stowed position, the pivotable molding may be aligned with the top surface of the tailgate in order to provide an esthetically pleasing appearance and provide paint scratch resistance. When the movable frame portion is in an essentially fully extended position, it may be rotated relative to the tailgate in order to provide the box extender and assist step functions.
Abstract:
A tailgate for a vehicle has a supplemental tailgate that retracts within the tailgate and is extendable therefrom in order to provide different assist functions. The supplemental tailgate may include a pivotable molding, which mounts on a movable frame portion, a latching assembly, and a gravity latch assembly. When pivoted, the pivotable molding releases the latching assembly, allowing the supplemental tailgate to be moved to various extended positions. The gravity latch assembly engages the pivotable molding to prevent the pivotable molding from being pivoted when the tailgate is in the generally vertical closed position, and disengages the pivotable molding to allow for pivoting when the tailgate is in the generally horizontal open position.
Abstract:
The amplitude of a local oscillator signal for use with a frequency mixer is maintained at a given constant level by a control signal derived from the direct current flow through the mixer diodes.
Abstract:
A lock rod support member can be stowed within a support tube housed in the body of the pick-up truck on which a supplemental tailgate assembly to be deployable from the tailgate structure of the pick-up truck. The support tube for the lock rod can be mounted internally of the D-pillar of the pick-up truck body with the lock rod extendible therefrom, or mounted beneath the top rail of the pick-up truck bed from which the lock rod can be extended, for engagement with the deployed supplemental tailgate assembly. A stop bracket positioned at the end of the lock rod support tube engages and positions the formed distal end of the lock rod for appropriate positioning for engagement with the supplemental tailgate assembly. A spring latch mechanism is mounted on the opposing ends of the supplemental tailgate structure for clasping the insertion end of the lock rod members.
Abstract:
A tailgate for a vehicle has a supplemental tailgate that retracts within the tailgate and is extendable therefrom in order to provide multiple assist functions. The supplemental tailgate includes a pivotable molding, which mounts on a movable frame portion, and a latching assembly. When pivoted, the pivotable molding releases the latching assembly, allowing the supplemental tailgate to be moved to various extended positions. When the movable frame portion is in an essentially fully extended position, it can be rotated downward relative to the tailgate and a flip step pivoted to a use position in order to provide an assist step function.
Abstract:
An injection assembly for an injection moulding machine, comprising a screw (2) mounted in a plasticising cylinder and an injection piston (8) which moves the screw (2) in the longitudinal direction and which is mounted in an injection cylinder, wherein there is provided a supply conduit for the injection cylinder having a control valve (13) which can be shut off and there is provided an additional conduit (14) which by-passes the control valve (13) and in which are arranged a device (17) for reducing the amount of the pressure fluid flowing to the injection cylinder (7) and possibly a device (16) for reducing the pressure.
Abstract:
A capless refueling assembly for opening and closing a filler neck of a gas tank. The refueling assembly includes a housing attached to the filler neck. A lid is pivotally mounted to the housing between open and closed positions for facilitating the opening and closing of the filler neck. A valve mechanism is movably mounted to the housing between seated and unseated positions for selectively releasing pressurized fluid from the filler neck. The refueling assembly is characterized by an actuation device automatically moving the valve mechanism from the seated position to the unseated position while the lid remains in the closed position. Accordingly, any pressurized fluid within the filler neck is vented to a safe area, preferably a carbon canister, before the lid is moved to the open position.
