Abstract: A shift cable for transmitting of operation commands to a transmission comprises a cable conduit, an inner cable, a socket and a shift tuning structure. The socket is adapted to attach the shift cable to a housing. The shift tuning structure is provided between the cable conduit and the socket in order to provide a vibration dampening between the inner cable and the socket and to provide a desired shift feeling when the inner cable is transmitting an operation command. The shift tuning structure comprises a stiff, low-density material which is separated from the socket in axial and radial directions through a flexible material, which is thinner than the stiff, low-density material.

Abstract: The present invention achieves construction for a seal ring-equipped ball bearing (1a) that allows the outer-diameter dimension of a load-bearing surface (35a) to be made large, allows a large contact area with a transmission gear (16) to be secured, and allows dynamic torque to be reduced. Seal lips (14a) of seal rings (4a) that cover opening sections on both sides of the seal ring-equipped ball bearing (1a) have a substantially horizontal V-shaped cross-section and are configured so that an outer-diameter-side inclined section (25) and an inner-diameter-side inclined section (26) are connected by a continuous portion (27). The inner-circumferential edge section of the inner-diameter-side inclined section (26), which is the tip-end edge of the seal lip (14a), is made to slide over the entire circumference of the outer peripheral surfaces of both end sections of an inner ring (8a), the end sections being cylindrical surfaces (30) without seal grooves. The angle (α1) of an inside-continuous surface (29) of the continuous portion (27) is at least 104°, and the overall length of the inner-diameter-side inclined section (26) is kept long by the continuous portion (27) entering radially inward into a wave-shaped retainer (10a).

Abstract: A balanced planetary gearbox including an assembly having an input stage and an output stage. The assembly includes two grounds, each with ground rollers and ground rings. The two grounds are fixedly attached to one another. The assembly includes a sun gear and planet sub-assemblies between the two grounds. The planet sub-assemblies include at least one input planet gear and one output planet gear. The sun gear and the input planet gears include rollers. An abutment of rollers in the gearbox keeps the sun gear and the planet gears in alignment. The output gear meshes with an output ring disposed in between the two ground rings, such that a combination of the at least one input planet gears from each of the plurality of planet sub-assemblies provides a structural symmetry to the planetary gearbox.

Abstract: A cable pull for transmitting a tensile and/or pressure force to a pivot point is presented. The cable pull has a counter bearing, a tie rod, an adjustment unit and a locking element. The counter bearing is designed to introduce a counter bearing into a casing of the cable pull, counter to the tensile and/or pressure force. The tie rod is axially supported in the counter bearing, and coupled to a wire core of the cable pull. The tie rod has a molded part on an end protruding out of the counter bearing, having a first component of a toothing. The adjustment element is designed to adjust a length of the cable pull between the counter bearing and the pivot point. The adjustment element has a guide for the molded part. The molded part can move axially in the guide, and is disposed such that it is guided transverse thereto. The locking element is designed to fix the molded part in place in the adjustment unit. The locking element is disposed in a recess in the adjustment unit oriented transverse to the guide, and can move between a locking position and an adjustment position. The locking element has a second component of the toothing, which is designed to engage in the first component in a form fitting manner when in the locking position, and to suppress the axial movement of the molded part in the guide.

Abstract: A bearing arrangement is provided having an axial securing ring that inserts into a bearing-seat radial groove of a bearing carrier to secure an anti-friction bearing axially in relation to the bearing carrier. The axial securing ring is an open flat ring with an annular section. Radially projecting lugs are provided at each end of the annular section. The radial width of the annular section is substantially constant over the circumference of the annular section. The lugs are produced by bending the axial securing ring with respect to the annular section. The axial securing ring is plane-ground on its axial sides.
