Publication number: 20200079450Abstract: An adjusting device is proposed for adjusting a first component and a second component of a passenger or freight transport vehicle relative to each other, wherein the two components are arranged adjacent to each other to form a gap. The device includes a base body, an adjusting element mounted in the base body and movable along a first axis and an actuating body mounted in the base body and movable along a second axis which cooperates with the adjusting element such that the movement of the adjusting element along the first axis converted into a movement of the actuating body and/or the adjusting element along the second axis; and a fixing device for fixing the adjusting element and the actuating body in a selectable position. The invention also relates to a passenger or freight transport vehicle with such a device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2019Publication date: March 12, 2020Applicants: MOTHERSON INNOVATIONS COMPANY LIMITED, ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS INC.Inventors: Eric Fischer, Claus Bleile, Dieter Gut, Victor Diez Herrera, Thiemo Ammann

Patent number: 8904607Abstract: A fastening device includes a clip and a retaining element. The clip has a head from which lateral wings for fastening to a panel and resilient lugs for fastening the retaining element to the clip extend laterally. The retaining element temporarily fastened inside the clip is inserted in this state inside a mounting hole or opening where final fastening of the device to the panel is performed. The retaining element has an internal cavity for disassembling the clip. The resilient lugs have a fold from which they extend so as to form inner wings which are provided with an opening. Upon insertion of the retaining element, projections of the retaining element engage inside the opening.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2010Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventor: Victor Diez Herrera

Publication number: 20100310338Abstract: This invention describes a speed nut that is formed by three surfaces, a lower surface that is a coupling washer to be pressed against the panel or protective device to which it is attached, an intermediate or base surface, and a final surface that is formed by an arm which, folded back on itself, covers the center of the nut. These surfaces have central holes whose centers are vertically aligned. The nut of the invention has a double screw thread, which consists of the conventional thread of the surface or upper arm and of another thread that is present on the base surface. Both screw threads are created by means of cuts that produce independent flanges of different sizes which together form a helical outline that is designed to mate with the corresponding threading of the screw or bolt that will pass through said nut.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2008Publication date: December 9, 2010Applicant: ITW METAL FASTENERS, S.L.Inventor: Victor Diez Herrera
