Abstract: A control device for a brake system of a vehicle includes a valve control device, using which, while taking into account a provided information signal with respect to a currently exerted or to be exerted generator braking torque of a generator, at least one high-pressure switching valve of a brake circuit of the brake system is able to be controlled into an at least partially opened state such that a brake fluid volume is able to be displaced from a main brake cylinder of the brake system into a storage chamber of the brake circuit via the at least one high-pressure switching valve that has been controlled into the at least partially opened state. Furthermore, a method for operating a brake system of a vehicle is described.

Abstract: A brake for retaining a mobile carriage on which apparatus such as storage facilities are located. The brake includes a pivot member with a release end and a locking end and with a claw at the locking end. The claw engages a slotted member when the locking end is depressed. The opposite end of the pivot member from the locking end is the release end. Adjacent the release end is a slot which rides on a stoop pin to prevent the release end from being depressed below the horizontal.

Abstract: A braking device for a pallet intended to run in a conveying track. The braking device includes a matrix and a braking element. The matrix includes the support service and exterior surface and a recess having various screws and openings. The braking element includes at least two protrusions which are disposed within the grooves of the matrix and project outwardly from the openings of the matrix at various stages of braking.

Abstract: A brake for retaining a mobile carriage on which storage facilities are constructed and having a slidable actuating assembly with a claw which engages a slotted member when the actuating assembly is depressed. The mobile carriage is mounted on a platform with a track in which the mobile carriage rolls and with a channel in which the slotted member is secured. A back plate is used to mount the brake on the mobile carriage. A cover is mounted on the back plate and an actuating assembly extends through and is slidably mounted in the pair of openings in the cover so that the actuating assembly may move to and from the platform.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic vehicle brake system (10), having a hydraulic pump (12) and a high-pressure hydraulic reservoir (22) for external-force braking, as well as a conventional master cylinder (28), which serves as a set-point brake force transducer for the external-force braking and serves the purpose of muscle-powered secondary braking if the external-force service brake system fails. To embody the vehicle brake system (19) with an active pedal travel simulator, the invention proposes connecting the master cylinder (28) to a low-pressure hydraulic reservoir (26) via a disconnecting valve (30) and to the high-pressure hydraulic reservoir (22) via a return valve (32).

Abstract: An assembly line system has a pallet travelling along a work top of a work table section. The table section has a track along which a cardanic chain moves to convey pucks connected to the underside of the pallet in spring-loaded manner, by means of frictional engagement between the chain and pucks. The pallet is provided with a set of castors having resilient wheels. Passageways convey the pneumatic supply necessary for operating various items of equipment along the assembly line. The assembly line system also includes an adjustable track bend. In a modification the pucks are locked in the track.
