Patent number: 6874600Abstract: A cable control which can be mounted in a simple manner in an expanding lock of a braking device for a motor vehicle, a so-called cable slack of the cable end is required in the area of the expanding lock. For eliminating this cable slack again in a simple manner, a holding device is provided in the wheel carrier which comprises a sliding sleeve and of a fixing sleeve, between which locking devices are arranged, so that the cable slack can be eliminated when the sliding sleeve is slid in the fixing sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2003Date of Patent: April 5, 2005Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AGInventor: Edgar Grundke

Patent number: 6820516Abstract: In an adjusting device for wheel brake cables of a manually-operated parking brake, said cables are held in a yoke and are connected by means of the deflection element to a cable, which is fastened to a foot pedal for actuation. Through the intermediary of an adjustable compensating element, the yoke is braced by means of a spring element against a bracing member on a pull rod. The compensating element can be fixed by means of a setscrew in different inclined positions in relation to the bracing member; and, corresponding to this bracing member, the compensating element can be displaced on the pull rod and can be fixed on the pull rod by means of a threaded nut.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2002Date of Patent: November 23, 2004Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AGInventor: Edgar Grundke

Patent number: 5249522Abstract: A device for adjusting the circumferential register at rotary printing machines. At least one pulley engaging in a groove of a grooved cam is fastened to the gearwheel. Via tappets, the grooved cam is guided at the cylinder body so as to be axially displaceable. The groove is obliquely disposed as seen axially, and the grooved cam is axially movable via an adjusting means. A simple adjustment of the circumferential register is permitted, and such adjustment can be effected with great accuracy during machine operation. The drive forces caused by the gearwheel may be transmitted onto the cylinder body largely without play.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 1992Date of Patent: October 5, 1993Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmachinen AktiengesellschaftInventors: Hans-Jurgen Kusch, Edgar Grundke

Patent number: 5237921Abstract: A device for adjusting the circumferential register of a printing machine includes a gearwheel for driving a cylinder disposed coaxially therewith. Adjusting elements are connected to the gearwheel in angular position thereof for turning the gearwheel, during operation of the printing machine, over a defined angle relative to the cylinder about the common axis thereof. An adjusting device is located outside the gearwheel and is shiftable in axial direction. The adjusting device is coupled to the adjusting elements connected to the gearwheel. The adjusting elements connected to the gearwheel include at least one two-armed angle lever having a swivel axis disposed perpendicularly to the axis of the cylinder at a defined distance therefrom. The angle lever has first and second legs, the first leg being swivellably connected to the cylinder via a connecting rod at a connection location movable in tangential direction relative to the gearwheel. A cam roller is fastened to an end of the second leg.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1992Date of Patent: August 24, 1993Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AGInventor: Edgar Grundke
