Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for connecting optical fibers to light emitter and receiver circuits. The inventive device comprises a light emitter diode (4) and a light receiver diode (5) which are soldered to a printed circuit (6) and which are covered by a cap (7, 8). Said cap is provided with an opening into which one end (9, 10) of a small section (11, 12) of optical fiber is inserted. The opposite end (13, 14) of each section is inserted into a connector (17) which also receives the ends (2, 3) of the main optical fiber conductor (1) at the other side thereof. The aforementioned connector comprises internal projections (21, 22) which are used to center the ends (13, 14, 2, 3) of the optical fiber conductors inside said connector (17).
Abstract:
An adjusting screw for adjusting the distance between a rail of a power window device and the lower portion of the door of the vehicle, threadeably extends through the rail of the power window device, a fixed nut being provided at one side of the rail, and a torsion spring is provided at the other side thereof whose ends are clamped against the rail, the adjusting screw threadably extending through the door of the vehicle and is axially retained in position relative to the door between two closing nuts. The torsion spring allows increasing the necessary torque to move the assembly so that movements of the rail towards or away from the door of the vehicle are carried out more accurately.
Abstract:
It comprises a rear part provided with a cylindrical body surrounding and clamping a sheath for receiving and protecting a driving cable. There is provided a lock for retaining the sheath at the opposite end thereof helped by a dust-coat. Rotation of the rear part makes said lock to be released through a spear. The sheath is provided with a cover inside of which a stranded wire bundle is disposed wherein a metal coil is arranged. Disassembling of the device is made by rotating the hood of the rear part and releasing the spear from the lock. There are also provided projections extending from the spear which may be transversely moved and either transversely compressed or expanded but never being released from the lock as the cable is rotated.
Abstract:
The device includes a screw which turn allows adjusting the distance between the rail of a power window device and the inner portion of motor vehicle door and it is surrounded, at an end thereof, by a first adjusting through block formed integral to the door of the motor vehicle, and a second adjusting block for roughly adjusting or tightening the thread inwardly which is fixed to the power window device, the opposed end of said screw being threadingly received to the rail of the power window device. The device permits adjusting of the window pane in a very simple manner, with a highly reduced cost of production and with a considerably strong mechanism which, in turn, allows a fine adjustment of the lateral distance of the assembly of the power window device.
Abstract:
A driving member for a power window device of a motor vehicle has a U-shaped body (1) formed of two body-halves (2, 3) joined to each other by one of their ends, the body halves defining an interior portion (4) adapted to receive the lower end of a window pane of the vehicle. The U-shaped body (1) is adapted to be slidingly driven by a driving cable along a rail of the power window device, and the interior portion (4) of the body (1) is provided with parallel longitudinal protrusions (5) disposed in a stepped arrangement. The arrangement forms a first series of protrusions (6) which extend upwardly relative the window pane and a second series of protrusions (7) which extend downwardly relative the window pane both series (6, 7) of protrusions (5) being symmetrical so that the window pane rests on one of the series (6) slightly sloped according to the position that the window pane assumes in the power window device. The driving member being capable of be used for the window pane of the door on either side of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A fork for cardan joints consists of a single-piece body produced by stamping from metal sheet. The fork has on its side arms (4, 4') individual longitudinal reinforcing ribs (8, 8') produced during the stamping process itself and individual collars or flanges (6, 6') around the aligned apertures (5, 5') thereof into which fit the bearings that support the pivots of the corresponding cross member. The dome portion (3) connects the arms to collar portion (1) which has a splined hole (2) for connecting the fork to a shaft.
Abstract:
These systems comprise sensors formed of an optical fiber conductor (4) fitted inside a sheath (8). The device comprises a support (1) provided with cylindrical revolving rollers (2, 3) made of a soft material which rotate in reverse direction to each other and between which an optical fiber conductor (4) is moved; and a supporting device (7) of the sheath (8) which makes it to be in line with the optical fiber conductor (4) so that it is inserted inside the sheath (8) as it is moved by the rollers (2, 3). It is provided with oil supply means (10) toward the optical fiber (4) to facilitate insertion thereof inside the sheath (8).
Abstract:
A procedure for manufacturing corrugated tubes includes providing an outer mold arranged to envelop a region of a tube to be deformed. The outer mold includes a plurality of flat annular elements capable of being displaced in a radial direction. A counter-mold is situated in the interior of the tube. The counter-mold includes identical and independent parts, radially displaceable simultaneously between an end position in which the independent parts are applied against the walls of the tube to cooperate with the pressing action of the annular elements of the outer mold to an opposite end position in which the independent parts are remote from the walls, allowing the corrugated tube to be removed from between the outer mold and the counter-mold.
