  • Patent number: 10619277
    Abstract: A sewn covering for covering support parts includes at least one first and at least one second trim cover element which are connected to one another via a functional seam. A soft insert runs along at least some sections of the functional seam. The seam stump formed by the functional seam can be surrounded by a seam band which can be fixed by the functional seam. To produce such a sewn covering, a band can be used which has an at least partially elastic seam band that is perforated in the longitudinal direction. At least one soft insert is provided in the longitudinal direction of the partially elastic seam band, which insert is fixed to the seam band.

  • Patent number: 9511733
    Abstract: Protective device with a flexible sheet-like structure movable between a compactly stored position and at least one two-dimensionally extended functional position and which is provided, on an end region thereof with a dimensionally stable extension profile which, at opposite ends, has retaining profile sections mounted so as to be displaceable telescopically to a limited extent in the extension profile and acted upon outwardly in the longitudinal direction of the extension profile by a spring arrangement. Each retaining profile section is assigned a second spring arrangement which acts on the retaining profile section in the opposite direction to the first spring arrangement. The retaining profile section, in an unloaded non-operational position, is held on the extension profile in a central position, from which the retaining profile section can be shifted inward or outward in opposite longitudinal directions relative to the extension profile.

  • Publication number: 20150298638
    Abstract: Restraint device including a flexible sheet-like structure mounted on a winding shaft so as to be able to be wound up and unwound and shiftable in height between an at least partially extended functional position and a wound-up rest position, wherein the sheet-like structure, on front end face region in the direction of extension, is provided with a dimensionally stable extension profile, and a lifting mechanism, with at least one lifting arm arrangement and which, for the raising and/or lowering of the flexible sheet-like structure, is detachably connected to the extension profile. The lifting arm arrangement is limitedly pivotable about a tilt axis oriented substantially parallel to a rotational axis of the winding shaft, and at least one adjustment unit is provided to adjust the lifting arm arrangement in its tilt about the tilt axis and to fix it in an adjusted tilt position.

  • Patent number: 9057541
    Abstract: A solar collector (1) is provided having a cover (200), a back wall (300), and an absorber (100), the absorber being arranged between the cover (200) and the back wall (300) and defining, with the cover (200) and/or the back wall (300), a front and/or back cavity (14, 15), respectively. At least one spacer element (400) is provided, which extends from a front surface (102) of the absorber (100) to the cover (200) and/or from a back surface (103) of the absorber (100) to the back wall (300) and is connected or connectable directly to the absorber (100) and/or the cover (200). A method for manufacturing such a solar collector (1) is also provided.

  • Patent number: 8919851
    Abstract: A restraint device for a vehicle interior has a flexible planar structure movably mounted between a rest position and an extended function position and that is provided at its end area with a dimensionally stable pulling-out section, and the restraint device has at least one roof-side holder in which the pulling-out section is detachably fixed by at least one complementary securing section in the extended function position of the planar structure. The roof-side holder includes a receptacle and a stationary locking pawl arrangement mechanically matched to a movement distance of the at least one securing section during transfer from the rest position to the function position. The securing section during its upward travel presses the locking pawl arrangement into the release position, and the securing section enters the receptacle and the locking pawl arrangement automatically moves back into its locking position as soon as the securing section has entered the receptacle.

  • Patent number: 5360161
    Abstract: Apparatus for cutting an advancing strip of photographic paper into prints of different size along and across the strip. The apparatus includes devices that cut perpendicular to the edges of the strip upstream of devices that cut parallel with the edges of the strip. Other devices secure the paper in position while it is being cut.

  • Patent number: 4353538
    Abstract: The invention relates to an input/output device for unexposed or latently exposed photographic sheet material for use in combination with photographic material evaluation devices. The invention comprises a flat light-tight cartridge having an opening, a film support displaceably arranged within said cartridge and externally operable, and a light-stop for said opening. The cartridge is insertable into a socket of the evaluation device so that the film can be shifted out of the cartridge and into the likewise light-tight evaluation device to be secured to holding means of a recording drum in said device. By sucking means within and respective rotation of said drum the film is evenly attached to the drum surface. By control of the input/output operation by means of a control unit an automatic handling of film material at normal light conditions is feasible.
