Abstract: An adapter device for a vehicle includes a rail unit installed in the vehicle and defining a moving path, and an adapter unit mounted on the rail unit to move along the moving path, with a connector for mounting various convenience equipment being interchangeably coupled to the adapter unit.

Abstract: A fastening system for fastening loads on vehicles includes a load slide arranged on and movable on a load rail along an extension direction. The load slide includes a fastening device for fastening a securing element and is lockable at different travel positions on the load rail. On the outside of the load rail a plurality of locking recesses are formed along the extension direction. The load slide includes a rotatably mounted cam, which is rigidly connected to an actuating element and which can be rotated with the actuating element between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the cam can engage with one of the locking recesses and thus lock the travel position of the load slide. In the unlocked position, the cam is disengaged with respect to the locking recesses and the load slide can thus be moved on the load rail.

Abstract: The transport of work carriers on an assembly line is performed by the use of novel linear motors in which the primary part has both solenoids and permanent magnets and in which the secondary part has no permanent magnets of its own. By the provision of a magnetically soft plate, a work carrier has uniformly spaced clearances with respect to the secondary part and can be moved by the suitably arranged primary part. On an assembly line, it can be provided that the primary parts supplement the unction of an existing transporting bet. It may also be provided that a transporting belt is completely replaced by such primary parts.

Abstract: A hand lever includes a sleeve-shaped member having an inwardly protruding projection, a fastening element having a stop interacting with the projection, wherein the fastening element is mounted in the sleeve-shaped member so as to be longitudinally slidable to a limited extent, and coupling elements for axially coupling the hand lever and fastening element so as to be nonrotatable relative to each other. A spring is mounted in the sleeve-shaped member for an axially engageable and disengageable coupling of the hand lever and the fastening element. The fastening element has an integrally formed extension part extending past the projection of the sleeve-shaped member into the sleeve-shaped member. A second support is provided for the spring and the stop of the fastening element or the extension part. At least one of the sleeve-shaped member and the extension part is of a resilient material.
