    Abstract: The invention relates to a gas pressure spring (50) comprising a working piston (2) which is guided displaceably in a working cylinder (1) along a stroke axis (H), a compensating cylinder (12) which encloses the working cylinder (1), and a compensating piston (10) which is of hollow-cylindrical shape and is guided displaceably in the compensating cylinder (12) along the stroke axis (H). The working cylinder (1) has an open end (1b), at which the compensating cylinder (12) forms a projection (15) beyond the working cylinder (1) with a closed end (15b). The compensating piston (10) separates a working chamber (1a) which is arranged in the working cylinder (1), a compensation chamber (12a) which is arranged between the working cylinder (1) and the compensating cylinder (12), and a restoring chamber (15a) arranged in the projection (15) from one another and is open at an upper side (10a) of the balancing piston (10) facing the working chamber (1a). The gas spring (50) comprises a seal (8) arranged on the upper side (10a) of the balance piston (10) which seals the balance piston (10) to the working cylinder (1) and to the balance cylinder (12).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a damping system for damping a movement of a flap of a vehicle relative to a body of the vehicle. The damping system comprises two coupling elements for coupling the damping system to the flap and to the body, wherein the two coupling elements are connected to one another so as to be linearly displaceable relative to one another along a longitudinal axis of the damping system, and a spindle gear with a rotary element selected from a threaded spindle aligned along the longitudinal axis and a spindle nut guided on the threaded spindle. The spindle gear is connected to a first of the two coupling elements in such a way that the spindle gear translates a translation of the first coupling element relative to the second coupling element along the longitudinal axis into a rotation of the rotary element about the longitudinal axis. The damping system comprises a damping device and a centrifugal clutch, wherein the centrifugal clutch is configured to connect the rotary element to the damping device for damping the rotation of the rotary element when a speed of the rotary element exceeds a switching speed.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an actuator for the rotary drive of a vehicle flap. The actuator includes an electric motor, which has a output shaft with a center axis, an output unit, which is in force-transmitting connection with the electric motor in such a manner that activation of the electric motor causes a rotational displacement of the output unit about an axis of rotation of the output unit, and a mounting unit which is configured to support the actuator in force-transmitting connection with a superordinate assembly relative to the drive unit such that, upon activation of the electric motor, a displacement of the drive unit relative to the mounting unit takes place. Also disclosed is a storage apparatus for a vehicle door and a motor vehicle.

    Abstract: A ball socket for a ball joint is provided, including a base body with a recess for receiving a ball head of the ball joint, wherein the recess includes a support region for supporting the ball head and a cylindrical insertion region for inserting the ball head in an insertion direction into the support region, and a securing element, wherein the securing element includes a connecting region and two retaining legs connected to one another by the connecting region. The base body includes two retaining channels open to the insertion region. The retaining channels extend from the insertion region in a curved manner towards the retaining axis, wherein the free end portions of the retaining legs can be elastically bent, so that the free end portions spring back after the ball head has been pushed into the insertion region in order to fix the ball head in the support region.

    Abstract: A piston assembly for use in a gas spring or damper can include a piston rod partially positioned within a pressure tube, and a linear position sensing apparatus capable of tracking and determining the velocity of the piston rod. The linear position sensing apparatus can include a sensor, such as a waveguide sensor, connected to the piston rod such that the sensor moves with the piston rod. A beacon, such as a magnet, can be contained within the pressure tube and the sensor can detect the position of the beacon relative to the sensor.

    Abstract: A fastening device for the articulated fastening of a first construction unit, e.g., a drive device which can be varied in length by motor, to a second construction unit, e.g., a motor vehicle. The fastening device comprises a ball pin with a bolt shaft defining a bolt axis. One end of the bolt shaft is configured for fastening to the second construction unit and the other end comprises a ball head mounted in a ball socket of a ball socket unit. An attachment unit attaches the ball socket unit to the first construction unit. The ball socket unit has two integral contact portions, which are diametrically opposed to one another with respect to the bolt axis and are in contact with the bolt shaft. The contact portions may each be provided with an indentation area, such that they are elastically deformable in a direction away from the bolt shaft.
