  • Patent number: 10668791
    Abstract: A carrier component for a vehicle, e.g. in the form of an assembly or module carrier for a vehicle door is provided. The carrier component comprises a sealing channel at least in a protruding region in which a portion for a functional component protruding beyond the edge of the carrier base surface or for a functional component arranged to protrude from the carrier component extends across the sealing channel in cross-section is formed by at least two legs which each define an outer edge of the sealing channel and whose ends lie in a channel plane which extends inclined relative to a carrier plane defined by the carrier base surface, so that the sealing channel is open in a direction in space defining the carrier plane and a seal also can easily be injection-molded to the carrier component in the protruding region.

  • Patent number: 6688034
    Abstract: A fish hook remover includes a lengthwise base member, a combination handle, an actuation rod, and a rotary arm. The combination handle is attached to one end of the lengthwise base member and a yoke is formed on the other end of the lengthwise base member. The actuation rod is slidably retained by the lengthwise base member. A knob is attached to one end of the actuation rod and a rack is formed on the other end of the actuation rod. The rotary arm includes two rotating bodies and a pinion gear rigidly attached to the two rotating bodies. A clearance area is formed between the two rotating bodies to receive a shank of a hook. The rotary arm is pivotally retained by the yoke. The fishing line is wrapped around the combination handle. Linear movement of the actuation rod causes the pinion and rotary arm to pivot.
