  • Patent number: 10179681
    Abstract: A case for holding tools or small parts includes a basic body and a lid coupled pivotably to the basic body. The basic body has two side walls, the upper edge of which is exposed in the closed state of the lid, and therefore the lid, in the closed state, is arranged between the upper edges of the side walls of the basic body. Each side wall of the basic body forms a labyrinth seal with the respective side wall of the lid in the closed state of the case.

  • Patent number: 6749790
    Abstract: The invention relates to a handle for a hand tool and a method for the manufacture of the handle. The problem of the invention is to provide a handle for a hand tool, whose surface is formed from areas of distinguishable materials and which simultaneously has a good and pleasant grippability. A handle according to the invention for a hand tool, particularly a turning tool, is made from plastic. It has a surface from flush-connected areas of distinguishable materials. The two materials can be distinguished from one another.

  • Patent number: 6182881
    Abstract: A stud driver for driving fastener studs in place with the aid of a propelling piston moved by a propellant contains a return spring concentrically surrounding a piston rod of the propelling piston. The return spring has roughly the shape of a relatively thin-walled cylindrical sleeve of elastomeric material reinforced at regular intervals by metallic ring disks. These metallic ring disks prevent any uncontrolled deformation of the elastomeric sleeve in high-speed movement of the propelling piston.

  • Patent number: 6158934
    Abstract: A knock-in pin dowel contains a dowel shell with a non-expandable shaft part located on the outside and an expandable part connecting thereto. The expandable part is subdivided into two axially following or overlapping expandable areas, which are in each case formed by longitudinal slits and expandable segments remaining between said longitudinal slits. The two ends of the longitudinal slits of the first expandable area are closed, whereas the longitudinal slits of the inner expandable area directed towards the inside of the drilled hole are open at the dowel end.

  • Patent number: 5645113
    Abstract: A refillable distributing container for liquid media, particularly an aerosol can, has two valves, whereof an upper valve is constructed as the distributing valve (5) for exclusively distributing the container content. The second valve is constructed for filling the container both with liquid medium and with pressurized gas. The invention also relates to a filling device for refilling the distributing container and a process for the same. The filling device has a filling connection (9), which is connectable with the distributing container filling valve (8). The liquid is preferably forced in to the distributing container with the aid of the pressurized gas.

  • Patent number: 5480734
    Abstract: At the end of am accumulator discharge process, the accumulator has a raised internal temperature. In order to be able to recharge it again, it is necessary to wait until it has cooled. The charging time is consequently significantly determined by the cooling time. To shorten the charging time, the invention proposes the installation in the accumulator of a temperature sensor and disconnecting the accumulator on reaching a predetermined temperature. Although it is still not empty, it then supplies no further current. However, it can immediately be recharged, so that the cooling time is rendered superfluous. Despite the shorter discharge time, the accumulator is consequently available over a longer period of time.

  • Patent number: 5438523
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided for delivering assembly and machining expendable materials or tools. The apparatus has an internal continuous mechanism with different compartment rows arranged in rotary manner and to move past a removal door row. An embodiment having relatively stationary compartments and movable doors to align with a selected compartment is also disclosed. An inputting keyboard for the positioning of the particular compartment row in front of the removal door row also controls the unlocking of a door in the door row associated with the selected compartment. The delivery unit is connected by means of a long-range transmission means to a data processing unit, which records the removal of the materials and optionally initiates reloading, billing, etc.

  • Patent number: 5374389
    Abstract: In a double chamber container, the inner chamber is formed by a tubular body of an elastic rubbery material stretched in order to expel a pressurized substance against its own elasticity. To obtain a precise stretching ratio of the tubular body and to empty it as well as possible, the tubular body converges uniformly and its walls have a uniform thickness, even in their bottom part. To attach the tubular body to the container, a collar which acts also as a seal is formed on the thereon. A process for producing the tubular formation includes bringing an elastomeric material into the flowable condition and coating it over a mandrel, and applying a cooling medium detachable from the mandrel over the mandrel initially and/or applying a treatment medium detachable from the mandrel over the latter subsequently, for the controlled alteration of the surface on the mandrel side of the elastomeric material.
