Abstract:
The invention relates to bearing support of a throttle valve shaft in the housing of an exhaust gas line in which the shaft is rotatably supported on both sides in a bearing sleeve element constructed cup-shaped. The cups themselves are retained by spring force against the housing extending correspondingly conically within these areas. In order to keep small the actuating forces necessary for the rotation of the throttle valve shaft, each bearing sleeve element is retained by itself against the housing by means of a spring supported at the housing and the securing of the shaft against any axial displacement takes place by a separate axial bearing.
Abstract:
A headlamp casing of a motor-vehicle headlamp is disclosed which is connected to an inner reflector receiving a bulb centrally in a bore and which is fastened pivotably and centrally in a trough of a body receptacle. The headlamp casing has a tubular extension which projects centrally from the outer face and is connected through an orifice in the receptacle to a fastening part and through the bore of which a headlamp bulb can be drawn out of the reflector bore from the rear side of the receptacle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an electrically conductive connection between abutting single sections of conductor rails. This connection is made by means of a current conduction cable consisting of bunched conductors and contact shoes. However, in order to be able to accommodate the current conduction cable within the cross-sectional contour of the conductor rails, the cable shoes are in each case constructed in the form of a cylindrical or prismatic connector pin which can be inserted into an opening of corresponding shape within the conductor rail. In most cases, such openings exist in any case in the conductor rails after these have been produced as a hollow section in an extrusion process. The connector pins are suitably of hollow construction and accommodate in their interior the bunched conductor which is only loosely enclosed by it. As a result, the bunched conductor can open out as a result of compression during a relative longitudinal movement of the connector pins.
Abstract:
The self-locking revolute joint can be adjusted at angles by turning an activation lever back and forth. It has a mount in which a bearing shaft rests rotatably in bearings, and supports an adjustment wheel which is provided with tooth profiles. The activation lever can be turned in both rotational directions around a turning axle resting in bearings in the mount; it has two swing-out carriers which do not engage with the adjustment wheel when the activation lever is in its central position; when the activation lever is turned, one of them engages with an adjacent tooth profile of the adjustment wheel and brings it to turn. Further, two locking arms rest rotatably in bearings at the mount and lock and adjustment wheel when the activation lever is in its central position. Each one of two radial cams arranged on the activation arm confunctions with a locking arm, via a release arm. When the activation lever is turned out of the central position, one radial cam brings the related release arm along and thus disengages the locking arm in the momentary drive direction.
Abstract:
A seatbelt lock is mounted to be movable as little as possible relative to the seat surface when the seat surface is adjusted in height or inclination. The seat has a longitudinal guide 20, 22, a device 24 for adjustment of height or inclination and a belt lock attachment 32. The lower end of the belt lock attachment 32 is affixed to the seat rail 22 of the longitudinal guide and carries a belt lock 34 at its upper end. The belt lock attachment has a lower part 38 linked to the seat rail and an upper part 40 linked to the seat carrier 26, the upper part being connected with the belt lock. One of these parts 38, 40 can move freely in a longitudinal guide formed by the other part. One part has at least one locking projection 60; and the other part has locking devices 46 interacting with the projection. By means of a safety piece 50, the two parts are held in a normal position permitting movement. When extreme forces induced during an accident act on the belt, the safety piece is overridden, whereby the locking projection engages in the locking device and removed of the upper part from the lower part is precluded.
Abstract:
An active switch for the intersection region of tracks for mechanically transversely or laterally guided vehicles having support wheels without flanges; the switch which is adapted to be forced open by the vehicle and includes only a single adjustable switch member in the form of a switch tongue pivotal about a fixed bearing in the switch frog, is bent into its end position by the vehicle itself by being pressed against abutments; the cross section of the switch tongue has an approximately constant bending stiffness over its length whereby the switch tongue in the unstressed condition preferably has a curvature that lies between the curvatures of the one and the other end position.
Abstract:
The disclosure concerns a sun visor including a visor body which is adapted to slide axially along a pivot-bearing housing defined along one longitudinal edge of the sun visor body, whereby the sun visor can be swiveled around that pivot-bearing housing and the sun-visor body can move along the pivot bearing housing. Inside the pivot-bearing housing is disposed one arm of the support shaft for the visor. A sleeve that is around the shaft and inside the pivot-bearing housing is slidable along the shaft and is fixed to the pivot-bearing housing by a spring which acts upon the sleeve through a window in the pivot-bearing housing. A second slide member is positioned toward the free end of the shaft. The end of the pivot-bearing housing supports a fastened on clip, which closes that end of the pivot-bearing housing. The reinforcing insert for the sun-visor body is also supported between flanges formed on the pivot-bearing housing.
Abstract:
A tire pressure control system having a pressure switch installed in a rim, which pressure switch, as part of a tuned circuit, damps, across an air gap, an HF transmitter, installed in a wheel web and having downstream analysis electronics, the pressure switch having a diaphragm pressure cell with a reference pressure, the diaphragm of which reference cell is subjected on one side to the reference pressure and on the other side to the tire pressure. A valve installed in the pressure switch makes it possible to adjust the reference pressure so that, when filling the tire, the desired tire pressure is simultaneously retained as the new reference pressure in the diaphragm pressure cell for the tire pressure control system.
Abstract:
A hydraulic tilting mechanism for a driver's cab of a vehicle, with the mechanism including a double-acting working cylinder having accommodated therein a displaceable piston. Ducts or lines are provided for connecting the working cylinder with a supply tank or source of hydraulic fluid, with a pump being arranged in one of the ducts or lines and a joint control valve for controlling a movement of the piston being arranged in the ducts or lines. A closable duct by-passes the working cylinder and branches off from a three-way valve having two switch positions. The three-way valve is located in the duct or line leading to a first cylinder space which causes a tilting of the driver's cab. The three-way valve is adapted to be electromagnetically switched by way of a key. The closable duct or by-pass line discharges into a connecting duct or line arranged between the control valve and a second cylinder space which is adapted to cause a return of the driver's cab. A non-return or check valve is disposed between the three-way valve and the connecting duct into which the by-pass duct or line discharges. In one position of the three-way valve, the duct or line to the first cylinder space is opened and the by-pass duct or line is blocked and, in a second position, the duct or line to the first cylinder space is blocked and the by-pass duct or line is shut so that by means of the by-pass line or duct the hydraulic fluid is fed by the pump back to the storage tank.
Abstract:
A drive mechanism for a fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine, wherein a drive sprocket and an injection timer unit are arranged in a crankcase of the engine on a drive shaft connected to the camshaft of the fuel injection pump. The drive shaft is formed by a socket sleeve and is floatingly supported on the camshaft.
